北京(五):捕風‧捉影
予其說是“風景”,倒不如說像個“墓園”,更為貼切。“紀念碑意味着久遠和宏大,中國的宣傳畫為了宣揚和造就政治意義上的紀念碑,很有震撼力。”嚴氏一直堅持自己畫的都是真實的人,以記錄歷史、見證歷史,這些小孩又見證了一個怎樣的歷史?世界大同下,他們又即將迎向一個怎樣的未來?

"habitus" closing down

Last week, we were notified by our landlord that we had to move out by the end of this month from the third floor of the Western Market, to make way for a marriage registry-related business.
Sad but not surprising, the news came with an "offer" from the depth of a well-oiled mercenary spirit. We may like to rent a ground floor unit next to the dessert store in the same historical building for HK$60,000/ month, a unit of around 600 square feet. For those of you interested, please contact the landlord directly. We sensed major tenancy shuffling is in place there. The unit is way beyond what we could afford, mentally, emotionally, and financially.
"ALL MUST GO" SALE NOW ON.
Aug 9 and 16 (Thurs) 1-6pm
Aug 10-12 & Aug 17-19 (Fri to Sun) 11am-7pm

A MESSAGE TO THE FUTURE A MESSAGE FROM THE PAST

真好,在Socially Yours的座談會上踫見黃國才(Kacey Wong)。
就他為Victoria Prison Art Museum所造的黃色小木屋,我說了點自己的看法,他顯然不太認同,但因下半場的節目即將開始,他沒能解釋下去,好可惜,真想聽聽藝術家親自為自己的作品發聲。多年前曾聽一學者說:「一件作品自公開以後,作者便失去了對其作品本身的詮釋權。」畢加索有過類似的話,但是指着觀眾說的:「任何一個人要對一幅畫作出解釋都是找錯了對象。」那麼是否都不要作任何理解呢?你刻意地要傳遞某些訊息,作為接收者的我難道便不能釐清這個訊息是甚麼嗎?我想一件好的作品,值得觀眾一想再想。
他刻意地在一個空間內營造了另一個空間。
先說我第一次的觀後感。我認為他沒有好好地運用現存的室內空間,亦沒有把囚室當囚室般用,觀眾一進去便給那小木屋吸引着,像個小孩看見糖果屋一様,爭相擠進去看個究竟,較比起其他同場的藝術品,囚室這個硬件在黃國才的作品中看似可有可無,要是把小屋獨置在其他地點,效果也不會相差太遠。我有這個想法,似乎是誤把小木屋當作一獨立自存的囚室看待,把它從本來的那個空間分割出來了。
監獄把罪犯與世界隔絕,一間間獨立的囚室再將罪犯們分開,最後這間小屋再邀請犯人把另一個自己分別出來。內心深處總有甚麼話要說吧,請化作文字留給未來那個重獲自由的自己,到那日,看着自己當年初到貴境的留言,不知會是怎樣的心情?觀眾被邀請站在這條時間線上的兩點,然而兩點卻同時並置在同一空間(小木屋)內,這種時間與空間的接軌讓我想起黃國才多年前的另一件作品,多個由大至小的黃色木屋以直線排列而成,從正面的“門口”窺探入內,會形成一點透視的錯覺,當觀眾誤以為可以走進這條長廊時,才發現門口不斷在縮小,限制你繼續前行,這種空間的虛置正正衝擊着我們固有的視覺經驗,你以為它很遙遠嗎?其實只有幾步的路程。黃氏的作品看來都很安靜,卻時刻充滿着令人躍躍欲試的互動性。
後來在其網站內找到以下一段小小的題旨,果然,用心一點看可以更貼近原意:
A philosopher once said the only freedom that ever exists is the freedom to choose whatever to think inside our mind. The memory of our past might not be what really happened. What are the things you wanted to change in your memory? What message do you have for your future? I built a wooden cabin out of recycle wood completed with a garden inside the tiny cell. Inside you can contemplate and reflect quietly then write a postcard addressing to your future self, I will mail it back to you in the future.

Cape Farewell
今天在街上看見許多「吊帶人士」,還是四月天,我想,夠切身的了。

二零零七年四月二十日
don't know why but all of a sudden, i want to start a blog...
just drop by MoMA's website and find a sculpture by David Smith, which is so much similar to a sketch bull by Pablo Picasso! (it's been my wallpaper for quite a while already)
no wonder why...
"I do not recognize the limits where painting ends and sculpture begins." So said Smith, who, in making Australia, used thin rods and plates of steel—simultaneously delicate and strong—to paint in space. Like a painting, Australia must be seen frontally if its form is to be grasped. It has been identified as an abstraction of a kangaroo, and its lines have that animal's leaping vitality. Though he began his career as a painter, Smith was inspired to make welded metal sculptures in 1930 when he saw those made by Pablo Picasso and Julio González.
