Ye, David, Heike, and Vanessa at Vanessa's apartment. Vanessa is one of heike's friends who is also an artist living in the city. She wanted more work space so we were helping her put the bed up along the wall. We accidentally got the bed stuck in the position you see and spent the next half hour trying to figure out how to get it down.
Paintings at the gallery in Ditan Park where Heike will have her show in the fall. These reminded me of Osamu's.
Heike, Ye, and Ye's wife Julie outside the gallery taking pictures.

Heike in the sea of bicycles. Heike is an artist from Denmark who has a studio in another compound close to me.
Ye and me in my studio. Heike introduced us.
Ye and I in his studio. He is from Beijing and is in the same studio compound as Heike. He makes some of the best work I have seen here. He takes posters from common people's homes and transforms them with his own paper cutting technique.

Hi Laura,
Actually, my classes at Sanhe No. 1 Middle School have about 70 students, almost twice as much as your estimate of 40, and big classes are common in China.
There are only 2 official between-class exercise periods where the whole school goes outside to run or do Chinese calisthenics . But the exercise periods seem to happen more often because individual classes all have separately scheduled PE classes (so there's always some of those groups outside) and during free time after lunch or dinner or whenever, the students are always out there jumping rope, playing basketball, shuttlecock, ping pong, etc, etc etc
