前言

正因?yàn)橹袊?dāng)代藝術(shù)對(duì)自身的社會(huì)、政治、生存的現(xiàn)實(shí)關(guān)注，才為今天世界藝術(shù)提供了新的視覺形式和新的血液，而得到普遍的關(guān)注。

然而，我們的現(xiàn)實(shí)究竟是怎樣的呢？這次參加展覽的十位西班牙藝術(shù)家的作品給我們一次反觀自身的機(jī)會(huì)。這些作品都是他們來中國交流、工作之間在中國創(chuàng)作的。是他們?cè)诓婚L的時(shí)間里對(duì)中國最直接、最感性的印象，給我們提供了一個(gè)可貴的新的觀看視角；中國的十位參展藝術(shù)家大多為我們所熟知，他們的圖式語言，均來自我們的現(xiàn)實(shí)以及對(duì)中國現(xiàn)實(shí)的思考，是極其個(gè)人化的。可以這么說，無論是短暫生活在中國的西班牙藝術(shù)家，還是土生土長、長期生活的中國藝術(shù)家，他們的作品無論如何都只是對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)生活不同側(cè)面的思考，其差異性和局限性是顯而易見的，因而也是互補(bǔ)的。歸根結(jié)底，都是基于現(xiàn)實(shí)之上的個(gè)人想象，哪怕它是最最客觀的影像作品。

藝術(shù)正因?yàn)楦鱾€(gè)不同的藝術(shù)家的想象差異，而顯得既多種多樣，又精彩紛呈，藝術(shù)家為我們?cè)诂F(xiàn)實(shí)之上再造了另一個(gè)想象的、虛構(gòu)的現(xiàn)實(shí)。同時(shí)，這種想象也不斷的被同仁們確認(rèn)而構(gòu)建著文化和藝術(shù)的歷史。

活在當(dāng)下，一切都是現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行式——

Memories of China

Chinese - Spanish contemporary art exchange exhibition

Duration: 19 Sep –18 oct

Opening: 19 Sep 3pm

Exhibition venue: 798 Space

Curators: Vivian Cao & Coral Lu

Because the Chinese contemporary art pays great attention to its own social, political and survival reality, it has been providing new visual forms and new blood for the comtemporary art world art obtaining vast global attention.

However, what kind of reality are we living? Now, the works of ten Spanish artist participating in the exhibition give us an opportunity to review our ideas. These works have been created during the residencies of these artists at MA Studio. Each artist have spent two months in Beijing developing projects related with they experiences in China. The works are extremely direct and sensitive impressions of this brief time when China has created a valuable new angle of visual culture.

The ten Chinese artists participating in the exhibtion are well known for their particularly characteristic language, which comes from our reality and from pondering it in a personalized manner.

Both the Spanish artists visiting China and the local Chinese artists living here discuss in their works about the cultural transformation in several contexts of the reality. The differences and the limitations of each point of view are obvious. Ultimately, everything is based on the reality above individual imagination, even in the most objective video work.

Each artist's imagination is different, and the difference appears in a variety of forms, wonderfully and excitingly. The artists have created a new imagery and a fabled reality based on the reality. Simultaneosly, these forms of the imagination are also unceasingly assured by the colleagues in order to construct cultural and the artistic history.

Live NOW, everything is PRESENT but CONTINUOUS.
