Brody, Richard. "Golden Eighties". Though Akerman links erotic crises to political ones, her art is essentially choreographic; she sets her colorfully clad characters in motion as they mouth the droll, bouncy songs (for which Akerman wrote the lyrics) directly into the camera. With canny cinematic references, she evokes a post-ideological age of practical business and cultivated optimism balanced blithely between catastrophe and apocalypse.

Im Jahre 1990 wurden beim Bau der Schnellstraße von Xi’an zum neuen Flughafen Gruben mit Tonsoldaten entdeckt. Daraufhin wurden 1991 umfangreiche archäologische Untersuchungen eingeleitet, die jedoch bislang die kaiserlichen Grabhügel selbst unangetastet ließen. Anfang der 90er Jahre legte man 24 Gruben frei, in denen 40.000 Tonfiguren gefunden wurden. Im Unterschied zur Terrakottaarmee von Qin sind sie nur ein Drittel lebensgroß, im Allgemeinen 62 cm hoch. Die Gruben haben eine Grundfläche von 96.000 Quadratmetern und damit das Fünffache der Standfläche der Terrakottaarmee des Ersten Kaisers von China.

In 1990, construction of the expressway from Xi'an to the new Xi'an Xianyang airport discovered pits with clay figures. In 1991 detailed archaeological explorations commenced, although the royal grave mound itself was undisturbed. 24 pits were excavated, and 40,000 clay figures were found. In contrast with the full-sized terracotta warriors found in the mausoleum of the first west Han emperor Qing, the figures at Han Yang Ling are 1/3 life size, and are typically 0.62 meters in height. The pits occupy an area of about 96,000 square meters, which is about five times larger than the area of the terracotta warriors.

Das Han-Yang-Ling-Museum wurde im Jahre 1999 eröffnet und gilt als das größte unterirdische Museum Chinas. Es steht noch im Schatten des weltbekannten Mausoleums des Ersten Kaisers Qin Shihuangdi mit der Terrakottaarmee, das sich im Osten von Xi'an befindet, obwohl es bereits mehr Fundstücke zu bieten hat und wie kein anderes Museum die Kultur der Han-Dynastie zeigt. Das Museum bietet zugleich einen einzigartigen Einblick in die laufenden Ausgrabungen in einzelnen originalgetreuen Gruben.

In einer modernen archäologischen Ausstellungshalle werden auf zwei Etagen ca. 1.700 Gegenstände gezeigt. Zu den Tonfiguren gehören nicht nur Krieger, sondern auch Diener, Viehhändler oder Buchhalter. Angesichts der langen Zeit unter Erde sind die Kleidung und die an den Körpern aus Ton angefügten beweglichen hölzernen Arme mittlerweile verfault. Ebenso gehören aber auch unterschiedliche Tiere wie Pferde, Kühe, Hühner, Schweine und Hunde zu den ausgestellten Fundstücken. Diese Hunde sind zahlreich vertreten, weil diese wahrscheinlich zu den Lieblingsspeisen des Kaisers gehörten.
