    Fat chance

    At Art Bridge, there is an “art exhibition to acclaim the Olympics”. And along with Wu’s silk-screen prints, Pan Dehai’s “fat guys” are colourfully striving to be number one, running and cycling, lifting weights and tearing over hurdles. Catalogues quote him as saying: “Fat is the theme I want to express. Fat is a phenomenon that exists widely in society. It is an obvious embodiment of the city syndrome and also one existent problem that lies in individuals at any moment nowadays.”

    But if I show the bubbly faced characters to the next taxi driver, what chance that I would be transported to a Games venue?
