Caochangdi
Caochangdi () is an urban village and renowned arts district located in the Chaoyang District of northeast Beijing at the intersection of the 5th Ring Road and Airport Expressway. Translated as "grasslands" in Mandarin, Caochangdi is home to a diverse group of residents, including migrant workers, farmers, students and artists, most notably, Ai Weiwei. Caochangdi developed into a thriving arts and cultural hub when artists began to move into the area around 2000, attracting international attention similar to the nearby 798 Art Zone.〔Chen, Aric. ("A New Frontier for Chinese Art" ), ''New York Times'', April 2007. Retrieved 25 May 2009.〕〔("An artists' community takes shape on Beijing's edge - Arts & Leisure - International Herald Tribune" )〕
==History==
Caochangdi has changed dramatically over its history. Once unoccupied grazing land used as hunting grounds by the Imperial Court, it later became an imperial grave and garden site. During the Cultural Revolution, the region became an Agricultural People's Commune and transitioned into a farming village. When the Chinese economy opened up to the global market under Deng Xiaoping, farmers became landlords and began leasing the land to private companies, artists and galleries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= The Village that Art Built )〕
In 2009, the architects Mary-Ann Ray and Robert Mangurian published a book on the village, titled ''Caochangdi, Beijing Inside Out: Farmers, Floaters, Taxi Drivers, Artists, and the International Art Mob Challenge and Remake the City''.〔(''Caochangdi, Beijing Inside Out: Farmers, Floaters, Taxi Drivers, Artists, and the International Art Mob Challenge and Remake the City'' )〕 It is a study of the village's history and architecture, and includes interviews with Caochangdi residents.
For many years Caochangdi was under threat of demolition, but in May 2011, after petitions by its residents and businesses,〔("Protect Caochangdi Art District Petition to Collect 10,000 Signatures from Art Supporters" )〕 Chinese authorities officially announced the village would be spared.〔("Art Village: A Year in Caochangdi" )〕
