在新一代艺术家的作品里,很多是无法归类的。参加《童话》展的薛滔、张鼎和赵光晖,他们的作品是雕塑?装置?还是其他的什么?很难用传统的概念去定义他们。 薛滔从2000年开始实验性地使用生活中最常见的又容易被忽略的废旧报纸进行创作,通过对人们日常生活中的已经消费或者未消费过的物质文化实体进行有效的选择、利用、组合,这些报纸的使用从某种角度来看,也是在保存历史,用历史进一步刺激和提醒人民关注现实存在的个体和群体的物质生活欲望,以及逐渐被这些欲望所掩盖了的深刻的社会和人生等问题。
张鼎的雕塑装置《秘密家族的航空餐》,更象是一次精心安排的聚会,戏剧性的场景似乎在竭力掩藏权力的隐秘通道。而在另一面,则是忙于周旋、彪悍灵活的幽灵。这次的作品与张鼎以往的装置有很大不同,是艺术家在创作语言上的一次全新尝试,同时在内涵上则一如既往地延续了他对社会现实的多维度思考。
赵光晖的作品充分体现了艺术家对于现代科技的好奇,尤其是对于科技带来的更多未知的不确定的未来事物的好奇和揣测。貌似一辆汽车,却长着金鱼尾巴的《道奇先生》带给人更多的是观念上的游戏性和视觉上的不确定性。 这次展览将从3月20日开始,直至5月16日结束。

It is hard to classify works of artists of the new generation. Works from Xue Tao, Zhang Ding and Zhao Guanghui which exhibit in “Fairy Tale”, should they be labeled with sculptures, installations or other forms of art? It’s difficult to define them with traditional concept. From 2000, Xue Tao begins to create with used newspaper as an experiment. Newspaper as we know, is a daily thing but also a thing that’s easily be neglected. Xue chooses, utilizes and combines those consumed or unconsumed material culture substances in daily life. From some angle, the utilization of paper is to save history. History helps stimulate and remind people of paying attention on the existed individual and material desires of the group, and also the profound issues on society and life which are covered by these desires gradually. Installation “Aeronautical meal of the secret family” from Zhang Ding is more like a delicate arranged party. The dramatic scene seems to hide the secret tunnel to power manipulation. On the other hand lies the valiant, agile phantom. It is not only a brand new attempt for the artist in terms of composition language, but also a continuing of his multi-dimension meditation of the society. Works of Zhao Guanghui fully demonstrates his curiosity on modern science and technology, especially on those unknown and uncertain things in future. “Mr. Dodge” looks like a car but with a gold fish tail. This works brings viewer more uncertainty on vision but more gameplay on conception as well. This exhibition is on view through March 20th till May 16th
