“年度問題——華涌的經(jīng)濟(jì)波普”個(gè)展在北京798藝術(shù)區(qū)思萊德畫廊進(jìn)行，開幕酒會(huì)將在2009年10月17日下午三時(shí)舉辦。此次展覽由北京大學(xué)教授彭鋒先生策劃，思萊德畫廊主辦。此次展覽時(shí)間10月17日——12月31日。一百多年前，王爾德將犬儒主義者概括為“知道所有事物的價(jià)格，不知道任何事物的價(jià)值。”在今天這個(gè)虛擬經(jīng)濟(jì)社會(huì)里，人們都變成了王爾德筆下的犬儒主義者。天天炒股，卻不見賺錢；天天賺錢，依然是兩手空空。價(jià)格與價(jià)值背離，是當(dāng)代經(jīng)濟(jì)生活的基本現(xiàn)象。生命的基本單位是年，一年一個(gè)循環(huán)。股市的日k、周k、月k，最終都得積攢成為生命的年輪。在人們都關(guān)注日k周k月k的時(shí)候，華涌提出了年度問題，旨在讓我們從生命的角度看經(jīng)濟(jì)，而不是從經(jīng)濟(jì)的角度看生命。展覽準(zhǔn)備和展覽期間，很多藝術(shù)愛好者對(duì)這樣一個(gè)展覽高度認(rèn)可。

More than 100 years ago, Oscar Wilde defined the cynic as "a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing." The virtual economy, which governs our contemporary social world, has made us into cynics of the Wildean sort. Stocks are traded every day, but there is no real money; money is generated every day, but we are still empty-handed. This disjunction of price from value is the core phenomenon of contemporary economic life. The basic temporal unit of life is the year, and the year is cyclical. But the stock market’s day-k, week-k and the month-k have come to dominate the life-cycle. When other people are concerned about the day-k, the week-k and the month-k, Hua Yong focuses on our perennial problem, examining the economy from the perspective of our lives rather than seeing life from the narrowly economical point of view.
