T-project

“艺术似乎可以改变世界。此外，艺术可以让人们去排解日常生活的烦忧，并鼓励他们去想象更加轻松、富足的生活方式。艺术展示了一个更加令人向往的生活。毕竟，愉悦是人类不可剥夺的权利，在艺术中我们相信快乐和生活。”Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev 2015年10月（“论策划2//范式转换”的前言，Carolee Thea）

Art can change the world, it seems. Additionally, the experience of art distracts from daily hardships and inspires people to imagine other ways of living, that are less painful and more flourishing. Its experience proposes a more fulfilling life. After all, joy is an inalienable human right, and we in art believe in joy and life.”

前言

“A conversation”雕塑与公共艺术学院纤维艺术系二年级的硕士研究生们，通过“对话”展览项目，为我们提供了一个开放的语境来讨论此方面的艺术和研究。俄罗斯学者Mikhail Bakhtin认为，“生活的本质就是对话。”“对话”既是目标，也是方法。艺术一直在所有可能的范围内寻找交流和联系，无论这联系是清晰的还是模糊的、愉快的还是忧郁的。通过自我对话，艺术家走出了混乱，用“对话”来梳理线索，将完整的故事编织出来并相互联结！材料、图案和形式都是有附加意义的，本次展览重温了“实验”的概念，它们变成了一件艺术品。其内在的结构含义——织物中网格状交错编织出的线与重复循环针织出的线是完全不同的结构——材料、图案和形式通过与我们的历史、生活和用途的交集而赋予含义。所有艺术实践的本质是：取样、实验和研究是学习技巧、理解材料相互作用和展示成果的方法。

这些作品齐聚于此使我思考，引导我去采访艺术家，并向他们提出问题。除却艺术家的作品外，与学生的访谈也是整个展览的一部分，这部分以对话或“交谈”的形式表现。他们同意用深刻和冗长的篇幅来谈论并解释他们的思想、感受、行为、反应和选择。这些“对话”不仅仅是采访，是学生对自己思想的“总结”，学生以自身艺术家身份所描绘的生动 “自画像”。采访的危险因素在于，总说同样的话，那么采访本身往往涉及着遗忘和“历史缺失”的概念，因此，这些采访我称之为“对话”，它们像是一个旅程，进入此展览中艺术作品尚未展示的那部分世界。

每个字词、句子、交流、对话和访谈都是一种感叹！每一个“对话”都是尖锐又深刻、富有挑战、极具吸引力、迷人且又挑衅的！艺术是一种思想的物理体现。什么是艺术，很难说，但当人们说：“我不懂艺术。我一无所知，”这意味着艺术还在良好运作着。艺术应该是神秘的。艺术必须提出问题——即使这些问题有时无法回答。策展人：阿萨杜尔·马克洛夫浙江 杭州2021年3月

Preface

“A conversation”

With this exhibition project “A conversation” the second year students from the Master Degree program at the Fiber Art Department, School of Sculpture and Public Art is proud to provide an open milieu for a discussion of art and research in this regard.

The Russian scholar Mikhail Bakhtin considers ‘life at its essence is conversation.’ It is both the aim and the method. Art has always been looking for communication and connections, distinctly or indistinctly, cheerfully or melancholy, within all the possibilities. With their individual encounters, the artist’s walk through chaos, using ‘conversations’ to pick up the threads, weave out the whole story and join one another!

Materials, patterns and forms carry meaning, and this exhibition revisits the notion of ‘experiments’, which become an artwork. Meaning inherent in their construction – in how the gridded interlacement of threads in a woven cloth is a fundamentally different structure than the cycling knit thread that loops upon itself – and meaning prescribed through their entanglements with our history, life, and use. Sampling, testing and researching are essential in all artistic practices as ways to learn techniques, understand material interaction, and demonstrate outcomes.

The juxtaposition of these pieces made me think and lead me to interview and ask the artists questions. And besides the artist’s works a part of the whole exhibition is the student’s interviews, or dialogues, or as I call them - ‘conversations’. They agreed to talk about and explain, so profoundly and in such length, their thoughts, their feelings, their actions, their reactions, and choices they made. These ‘conversations’ are more than mere interviews. They are student’s ‘summing up’ their ideas and constitute as vivid a ‘self-portrait’ on what they are doing as an artist. The danger of interviews is that they always say the same thing, and interviews themselves often deal with the notion of amnesia and of ‘missing history’, hence these ‘conversations’ take a journey into the ‘as yet unmapped universe of the artworks’ from this exhibition.

Every word, sentence, conversation, dialogue and interview is an exclamation!

Every one ‘conversation’ is strident, demanding, challenging, absorbing captivating and provocative!

Art is a physical manifestation of an idea. What is art, it’s very difficult to say it, but when people say, “I don’t understand art. I don’t get it all,” that means art is working well. Art is supposed to be enigmatic. Art must asking questions — questions that might not be possible to answer.
