The Impossible Truth Presented at PHOTOFAIRS Shanghai 2026
On 7 May, The Impossible Truth by João Miguel Barros was presented at PHOTOFAIRS Shanghai 2026, during a session dedicated to performance art and photography.
The event marked the presentation of the publication within one of Asia’s leading international photography fairs and included a conference exploring the relationship between performance, image and documentation in contemporary art.
The session brought together João Miguel Barros, iion Ho, editor of the book, and Chang Xin, one of the participants in the historic 1995 performance To Add One Meter to an Anonymous Mountain, revisited throughout the publication.
The publication revisits To Add One Meter to an Anonymous Mountain, the seminal 1995 performance created by artists associated with the Beijing East Village, now considered a foundational moment in Chinese contemporary art. Through extensive research conducted over several years, João Miguel Barros expands the understanding of the performance beyond the single act that took place on 11 May 1995, examining the wider artistic, political and social context surrounding it across an entire decade. -
