This article needs some major cleanup before considering it for copyediting. There is hardly any biographical data on the artist.

I moved most of the lead paragraph to the style section (can be renamed Theme) and added an infobox.

The list of works looks more like a resume. It should be spilt into two sections

1) In his Career section, give each major work a paragraph in prose where you can go into detail on how he developed the project and then which museums displayed his project and the reception he received.

2) List of selected works, with entries such as Title of Work (Year)

Needs more information on Influences, background, personal life.

I removed the paragraphs about performance art in China, and the 798 Art District. Although they were perspectives that were written by Xin, they don't relate how the background has affected his career or vice versa.

If you need an example for a performance artist page, you can see Carolee Schneemann. Note the categories and how they list things there.
