abstract = "Shanzhai is a term that encompasses a wide range of concepts including copy-and-paste, grass-roots cleverness, and even anti-authoritarian culture. In traditional Chinese, shanzhai refers to {\textquoteleft}villages in the mountain with stockade houses{\textquoteright} and, in Shenzhen, there is a real village called Dafen Oil Painting Village, which is famous for making {\textquoteleft}shanzhai art{\textquoteright} – replicas of oil paintings by globally renowned artists. The Hong Kong artist Leung Mee-ping carried out a project called {\textquoteleft}Made in Hong Kong/ Shenzhen{\textquoteright}, in which the artist produced a series of {\textquoteleft}Hong Kong-themed{\textquoteright} paintings with the {\textquoteleft}techniques{\textquoteright} she learnt at the Dafen Village. This chapter attempts to explore the cultural dynamics of Leung{\textquoteright}s project by rethinking various related notions, including authorship, creativity, shanzhai, and appropriation art.",
