It belongs to the Jundu Mountain System. The main peak is 2,241 meters above sea level, the second highest peak in Beijing and the highest peak in Yanqing District. In 2009, Haituo Mountain was selected as one of the top ten "non-famous peaks" in China by the Institute of Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences and China National Geographic Magazine. It has become a place that mountaineering enthusiasts across the country yearn for. Haituo Mountain is located outside Badaling in the northwest of Beijing, at the junction of the northern part of Zhangshanying Town, Yanqing District and Chicheng County, Hebei Province, about 18 kilometers from Yanqing City and 130 kilometers from Beijing. It belongs to the Jundu Mountain System of the Yanshan Mountains. The main peak is 2,241 meters above sea level, the second highest peak in Beijing and the highest peak in Yanqing District. The south side of the mountain is Zhangshanying Town, Yanqing District, and the north side is Dahaituo Township and Diao'e Town, Chicheng County. Haituo Mountain belongs to the Yanshan Mountain System and began to form during the Yanshan Movement. After a long period of crustal movement, fracture and uplift, steep and rugged peaks were formed. The mountain is east-west oriented, 16.9 kilometers wide and 28.4 kilometers long. There are 5 higher peaks. Most of the mountain rocks are granite, which was formed more than 130 million years ago. There are many "V"-shaped canyons in the mountains, which are formed by river cutting and fracture uplift. There are many springs on the mountain, which converge into streams.

专业饼干打孔50年"Bernard Venet: Beyond Concepts and Matter" Exhibition: An Art with Both Depth and Shock 🎨I just visited the "Bernard Venet: Beyond Concepts and Matter" exhibition, and my heart couldn't calm down for a long time This exhibition was held on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France, and it itself carries a profound cultural exchange significance. As soon as you enter the exhibition hall, you can feel a strong artistic atmosphere coming towards you, as if you have stepped into an art palace that transcends time and space. In the process of understanding Venet's works, I found that his artistic concept has a unique source. In 1970, he accidentally saw an article by semiotician Jacques Bertin in the magazine "Communication", which became an important opportunity for the development of his artistic concept. From that article, he discovered the concept of "univocity". This concept is very subtle. It is not only about communication efficiency, but more importantly, each element and symbol has a predetermined unique meaning, referring to the self itself. Bertin's communication concept of efficiency first and his view of instant appreciation of images are similar to Venet's, which gave Venet a deeper understanding of new themes and figurative descriptions. It is clear from the comparison that the ambiguity in music and non-figurative painting is open and abstract, while Bertin's identification of polysemy with verbs and symbolic images is subject to interpretation, and only univocal systems are as strict and precise as mathematics and graphics. This in-depth exploration of concepts is reflected in Venet's works, allowing us to see the deep theoretical support behind his works. One of the works that impressed me most is "Performance in the Garbage Dump" (1961). In this work, Venet lies directly on his back on the dirty ground, wearing a military uniform with a bare chest, surrounded by all kinds of garbage. With his lowered head, closed eyes and stretched body, the whole picture is full of Caravaggio-style religious colors. His Christ-like composition is obviously well thought out, and this is not a casual performance. From this picture, we can feel a kind of drama of survival. He seems to show weakness and the approach of death in the garbage and decay. We don't know whether he is dreaming, sleeping or resting, but this expression of garbage equating with death is very powerful and a profound interpretation of the human condition. Moreover, this work has a deeper contextual meaning. At that time, the Algerian War was about to come, and Venet would be sent there the following year. The reality of war and the problem of survival were undoubtedly the pain in the hearts of every soldier, which also became a contextual symbol in the work. This work is not just a simple performance art display, but also a portrayal of an era, a state of existence, and the inner world of people under the shadow of war. The exhibition spans Venet's more than 60 years of artistic career. The nearly 180 works on display are like a vivid art history book, recording his exploration and thinking on the road of art. This exhibition is a review of Venet's artistic career,
