Engaging in Museumification
Engagement is as much of a buzzword as buzz itself in these days of digital
overstimulation, constant distraction, fatigue with conventional marketing, and obsession with content. For consumers who barely glance away from their
smartphones, telling and even showing are not enough. Any successful marketing effort, brand, or story must engage with the intended targets. Re-enter the museum.
博物馆之兴 无处不在的数字信息，无休止的诱惑，传统营销的衰落， 迷恋快乐至上……身处这样一个时代，参与本身已经跻身时 尚之列。要吸引庞大的手机族，仅仅靠现身说法，甚至当场 演示，都远远不够了。任何营销方式、品牌或者故事，若想 脱颖而出，都必须契合目标群体的需求。博物馆热潮正是这 一思潮的反映。
Hallowed places, sacred cultural turf, and among the last places where the
pace of life slows, museums are popping up everywhere. In our secular age, museums and their celebration of man and his creations are the new churches. While the Louvre, Uffizi, MOMA, Tate and others are the grand cathedrals of
the faith, all aspirants to cultural status seek the nearest museum and museumlike experiences. In an age, regarded as commercialistic to a fault, it is notable
that founding or supporting a museum remains the most obvious way for money
作为神圣之地、教化之地，以及唯一可以让生活节奏慢 下来的地方，博物馆如雨后春笋般出现在各地。在这个物质 大于一切的时代，博物馆以及其中的先贤名流和他们的创作 成为了新的宗教崇拜。虽然巴黎卢浮宫、佛罗伦萨乌菲兹美 术馆、纽约现代艺术博物馆、伦敦泰特美术馆等等早已是文 化艺术的圣地，但任何有志于在文化领域有一番作为的人都 不会错过近在身旁的博物馆或者类似的经历。在这个过度商 业化的时代，成立或捐助博物馆成为把金钱转化为社会地位 的方便之路。成为一家博物馆的理事标志着拥有了无上珍贵 的文化资源。

另一方面，博物馆和商业模式正在以全新的方式结合在 一起。如今每一个商业品牌或者著名酒店——从海尔到和平 饭店，都拥有自己的博物馆，有的还会配备独家品牌店铺。 这些博物馆的陈列布置也更富魅力，另到访者欣喜不已，停 住脚步，而非直奔店铺。不过后者看起来无论规模还是数量 都在增长。与此同时，每家购物中心、商务酒店或百货商店 的陈列和装置都旨在令其成为社交媒体的宠儿。这一点在缺 少著名文化场所的亚洲尤其突出。为此，各大品牌和商场争 相打造自己的文化内涵。

然而醉翁之意不在酒，让人们心甘情愿打开钱包才是目 的。当商品和软广告环绕四周，人们是否开始怀念过去。那 时候广告就是广告，媒体就是传播消息的机构，而博物馆无 非就是收藏文物的地方。令人欣慰的是，越来越多的传统博 物馆开始在中国复兴。本期我们将带你细细欣赏它们各自独 特的风貌。

the most valuable cultural capital.
But museums and commercial units are meeting in new ways. Now every
brand or historic hotel – from Hai’er to the Peace Hotel - has a museum, sometimes blending with its shop. Museums also employ ever sexier displays to enrapture visitors so they don’t just bolt straight for the shops, which themselves
seem to be growing both in size and number. Larger museums like the Met have them on every floor. Meanwhile, every shopping center, business hotel, or store
has exhibits and installations that seem to aim at edifying as much as being the of established cultural institutions, brands and malls are eagerly stepping in to produce cultural content.
All of this comes with a slant and an implicit message for our wallets. With
all the content and advertorial around, we might start missing the days when an advertisement was just an obvious message to buy, media was meant to inform,
and museums were troves of cultural objects. Fortunately, the number of traditional museums in China seems to be growing in number. This issue of LifeStyle takes us on a tour.

立式车标的乐趣
Car Whimsy 以标识车，是马路上的乐趣之一。从纯手工雕刻 到机器大规模生产，从电镀涂装的金属到电脑时代的 平面化，车标从立标逐渐平面化经历了一段相当长的 过程，如今所剩不多的立式车标更多地成为了一种类 似吉祥物的装饰配件。 上世纪三十至四十年代，“Art Deco”装饰艺术 风行，这一艺术风格也对当时车标的设计产生了不小 的影响。英国的 Louis Lejeune 便是延续至今的立式车 标生厂商，其杰作多见于皇家的香车宝马和劳斯莱斯 等高级轿车。戴安娜王妃就曾经在自己的福特 Escot 上装饰了一只跳蛙。 发烧友可以从 Louis Lejeune 官网上购买，除了青 蛙，还有鱼、狗和马术主题的立式车标。当然，你也 可以定制一个独一无二的。 The last remaining hood ornament manufacturer from the
Art Deco period, Louis Lejeune’s hood mascots have adorned Rolls-Royces as well as many Royal hoods. Princess Diana had a leaping frog one on her Ford Escot.
Enthusiasts may purchase these whimsical items from the
company’s website or custom order one. In addition to the frogs, there are many other animals such as fish, dogs and equestrian themes, all very British indeed.

来自“1984”的威士忌
George Orwell’s 1984 Inspired Malt Whiskey 20 世纪 40 年代末，英国左翼作家乔治 ·奥威尔在 Jura 岛（侏罗岛，苏格兰内赫布 里 底 群 岛 第 四 大 岛） 完 成 了 反 乌 托 邦 小 说 《一九八四》的大部分内容。1963 年，岛上 唯一的酿酒厂 Jura 重建，隐匿于苏格兰西岸 一隅的 Jura 岛也随之重获新生。那时岛上只 有一条小路、一间酒吧、一个商场和一家酿 酒厂。正是这唯一的一家酿酒厂创造了独一 无二的 Jura 1984 年份威士忌。 1984 年，Jura 酿酒厂推出了一批产量稀 少的单一麦芽威士忌。三十年后的今天，这 批在美国白橡木桶、葡萄酒桶和雪莉桶内发 酵出来的威士忌口味依旧醇厚浓郁，全球仅 存 1984 瓶， 且 均 有 唯 一 编 号， 每 瓶 零 售 价 750 英镑。该年份威士忌未经冷凝过滤处理， 充分保留了产生香气的各种酯类，酒精含量 体积比（ABV）为 44%。
In 1984, Jura casked a small amount of single malt
whisky and, thirty years later, Jura 1984 Vintage,
was released as a limited edition malt. Currently, there are only 1,984 individually numbered bottles
available worldwide, with a retail price of £750 per bottle.
Jura 1984 Vintage has an intense and uncensored
taste that was matured in American White Oak, Amoroso and Apostoles Oloroso sherry butt casks.
Each extraordinary bottle is non-chill filtered at 44% ABV.
Jura 1984 Vintagehonours the connection to the
writer George Orwell who wrote the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four while staying on the island. After
being rebuilt in 1963 to revive a remote community nestled off the West Coast of Scotland, Jura only has one road, one pub, one shop and one distillery, which creates a uniquely crafted mix of whiskies completely unlike anything else that’s out there today.

翩翩木礼服
Tiago Valente in the Yintai Centre 同时拥有表演和新闻背景的西班牙设计师 Tiago Valente 总能通过自己的作品从不同侧面探 索社会问题。印度之行后 , 他又从当地熙熙攘攘的特色市场中获得了丰富的灵感。在最新作品“珠 光宝气的礼服”中，Tiago Valente 打造了一系列华美飘逸的木质礼服，同时该项目也成为连卡 佛平台启动活动的一部分。 受《一千零一夜》里每个神奇故事的启发，Tiago Valente 将各种美丽的水晶与宝石嵌入礼服 上极富动态的多层次木质网结构中。飞扬的创意与令人意想不到的材质相搭配，呈现出一种不可 思议的精妙。观众可在位于大上海时代广场的连卡佛上海旗舰店和北京银泰中心看到这些作品。 After spending time in India, Shanghai based designer Tiago Valente became inspired by daily journeys
through the mysterious Indian Bazaars. This became emulated in his latest project as part of Lane Crawford’s PLATFORM initiative to create the “Ultimate Bejewelled Gown”. With a diverse background in the performing arts and journalism, the Spanish artist frequently explores sociological issues through his work.
Valente wanted to capture the emotion and sense of mystery found in the magical tales of the One Thousand
and One Nights. His visionary gown features beautiful layers of crystals and stones that are meshed with an intricate net of flying wooden structures. The multiple delicate wooden structures in the dress were combined
with materials with unexpected textures to created a dress with an uncanny dimension to it and a high-class edge. The dress can be seen in Lane Crawford Times Square Shanghai and the Yintai Centre, Beijing. Yintai Centre, Beijing is also hosting an exhibition with other wooden works from Tiago Valente.

playing an even bigger role in the art world than ever before. Beijing based designer Aoto Oouchi
brings a highly inspirational take on life and culture
through his new media art. Originally from Vienna,
Austria he seeks to explore the different phenomena that occur in and through social media. Through
repetition and duplication, Oouchi believes that
it is possible to rethink the ways in which objects are shaped ontologically or how objects becomes
fetishes that define social groups in today’s pop
culture. Aoto Oouchi was one of the first artists to experiment with virtual art space. In his latest
project, he made an installation in which there was a
sculpture that looked like a heap of melting plastic. The exhibition can be looked at from many different
angles, giving it an edge on physical galleries. With Oouchi’s work the actual depiction of objects in a 3d sculpture have a different value than in real life. Aoto
says, “I like to use these schemes to create 3D object
installations and watch their symbolic value shift and reshape by reseeding it back to social media.” With today’s modern world shifting towards an even more
technological age is it clear to see how an artist such as Aoto Oouchi is thriving.

Anyone who appreciates modern architecture and
design should visit the hotel before its demise. The
hotel is a bit of a time capsule with its circa 1962 interior and streamlined designs. There is a large Seiko clock displaying the international times-with
Leningrad still on there-and the Bar Highlander serving Mad Men era cocktails.
There is still a glimmer of hope however as many
high-profile efforts have been made to save it, from

24 LifeStyle
建筑工作室 Bona-Lemercier、法国当代艺术家 Xavier Veilhan 和布景设计师 Bona-Lemercier 组成的工作 团队，将巴黎东部 30 公里处一座平庸无奇的乡间宅第打造成了展示当代艺术品的美术馆，取名“城堡 Rentilly”。“城堡 Rentilly”最早建于 1529 年，二战期间被德国人付之一炬，1954 年得到重建。如今，它成为 巴黎市当代典藏中心（Frac île-de-France）的第二个永久展示场地，另一个位于巴黎市中心。 改造后的镜面外观不仅给原来略嫌平淡的建筑增加了些许神秘和独特之处，而且更加强了其与周围环 境的联系，后者在建筑表皮上都得到了映射。建筑内部原有的内墙都被拆除，以最大限度地增大空间，屋 顶也进行了重新改造，这样一来，大露台上也可以办展，顺便将室外风景如画的花园景致也尽收眼底了。 说起工作团队给美术馆换上镜面外衣， Xavier Veilhan 解释说： “这幢房子没什么特点， 但人们都很喜欢它， 它旁边的花园实在太漂亮了，我们希望它能在视觉上一直延伸至美术馆，这样，人们会忘记它的不足。”

A collaborative team comprising of architecture studio Bona-Lemercier, artist Xavier Veilhan and set designer Alexis Bertrand
has transformed an otherwise banal French country house into a gallery designed to showcase contemporary artwork located 30 kilometers east of Paris.
Le Château de Rentilly-a chateau that was originally built in 1529, but rebuilt in 1954 after being burnt down by the Germans
during World War II, forms the second permanent venue for Frac île-de-France – (the region’s contemporary art fund) – with the other location existing in the center of Paris.
The building’s reflective façades not only adds intrigue and distinction to a relatively plain structure, but also enhances the
surrounding environment. Internal volumes have been cleared to make room for open plan gallery space with the roof also reconfigured to allow exhibitions to take place on a large terrace that overlooks the picturesque gardens.
Of the group’s decision to cover the building in mirrored panels, Xavier Veilhan explains: “The building had no qualities but
the public is rightly attached to it. The grounds are very beautiful, so I wanted to make the grounds visually enter the building, I wanted this latter to be visually erased, while keeping its design.”

In Seville, the fact of crossing the river and getting into Triana is like crossing an imaginary border where
the generational logic blurs. Triana is a quarter that displays itself at a small, close, almost domestic scale. It is a complex urban area which mixes neighbors’ yards, craft workshops, popular homes and other types of
housing which originated by the mid 20th century residential growth. The recently completed Triana Ceramic Museum by AF6 Arquitectos is an example of this urban rehabilitation.
Ceramic production was one of main crafts in which the development of Triana was based; there is
a strong identity between the neighborhood and pottery. One is in an area with enormous promise for contemporary architecture. In Triana one will not find new large public buildings, but instead find places for alterations or infiltrations through slight modifications, allowing us to discover new possibilities in a diverse and heterogeneous urban configuration.
The old factory kept its production until the end of the 20th century. This fact has preserved many of its
elements on the original site: seven firing kilns, a well, pigment mills, workshops and warehouses. During archaeological works, remains of other 8 kilns, out of which the oldest ones were in use until the end of the
16th century, were found. Two of these kilns have been integrated into the project. The old factory is not visible from the outside; it is hidden behind its original 19th century facade which opens up an intriguing combination of contemporary and old.
时被贴着魅力瓷砖的屋舍所惊喜。陶瓷生产 是特里亚纳赖以发展的工艺之一，这里陶瓷 工作坊林立，没有新建的大型公共建筑。最 近，由 AF6 Arquitectos 建筑事务所完成的特 里亚纳陶瓷博物馆竣工了。 博物馆由一个古老的陶瓷厂转变而来， 一直到 20 世纪末，该工厂还在正常生产。 原有的窑和工厂空间中多了一条错综复杂的 路径，引导参观者了解当地传统的陶瓷生产 过程。建筑保留了时间的印记（如砖块上的 烟熏痕迹），包括 7 个窑、1 口井、颜料坊、 车间和仓库。考古工作还发现了另外 8 个窑 的遗址，最古老的一个直到 16 世纪末还在 使用，这次陶瓷博物馆的项目就纳入了其中 两个。人们从外面完全看不到这个工厂的存 在，它隐匿在原 19 世纪的门脸之后——就 此揭开古老与现代交融的迷人风采。

挪威艺术家 Per Kristian Nygård 在奥斯陆一家 名为 No Place 的画廊，打造了一个令人难以置信 的自然景观装置——“非红即绿”（“Not Red But Green”）。在冰天雪地的挪威，这一抹绿不禁让人 想起记忆中一幕幕绿意盎然的美景。微型丘陵景观表 面被茂密的植被所覆盖，起伏不平的草地铺满整个房 间，绵延不绝。 你可以说这是内部设计，也可以说它是一件雕塑、 又或是一件装置作品。这里起伏的地形是用木框架覆 以塑料薄膜，再加上 4500 立方米带有草种的厚土层 来实现的。艺术家利用挪威炎热却短暂的夏季，在展 出前几周播下草种。画廊内潮湿的环境会在接下来的 时间里为草种萌芽和生长提供绝佳条件。展出期间， 还会有专人照料草坪并每天浇水，以保持其湿润的生 长环境。 Per Kristian Nygård 一向乐于创造貌似无意义的混 乱空间，与我们常见的有意义的空间，如程式化的城 市、千篇一律的功能性物品与建筑，形成强烈对比。 在“非红即绿”这件作品中，Per Kristian Nygård 仍旧试图打造一个毫无意义的超现实空间，体现的也 不再是当代美学意义上“侵入”这种诗意的潜在破坏 性。观者会进入一个一切都不对但就是感觉舒服的空 间，直面自己内心最直观的感受。 Redolent of rolling sylvan hills, ‘Not Red But Green’ is
actually an art installation in frigid Norway. Per Kristian Nygård constructed and grew a hilly landscape of grassy
mounds at Oslo’s No Place Gallery. The grass receded into an interior room creating the appearance of a continuous landscape.
One could label this as a sculpture or installation or even a
homogenous interior. This piece had a basic but comprehensive wooden construction supporting its 4500 liters thick layer of
soil and seeds; in order for the grass to grow the installation needed daily watering and maintenance. The grass sculpture
was grown from seeds that had been planted a couple of weeks earlier during the extremely hot but short Norwegian summer. This meant that the already damp room created the optimal growing conditions for the sculpture.
Per Kristian Nygård was interested in creating a space
for the seemingly meaningless and confusing - as a contrast to the all-encompassing meaningful and personalized we
surround ourselves with. For example the programmed urban environment, the functional objects and architecture.
In ‘Not Red But Green’ Per Kristian Nygård is trying to
make something that doesn’t make sense, a kind of surreal space. But instead by searching for the poetic potential
in the potentially destructive as is characteristic of much contemporary aesthetic “intrusions”, visitors are confronted
with their own intuitive and physical response to the experience of entering a space where everything’s wrong but feels right.

《中国新博物馆》(New Museums in China） 一书由普林斯顿建筑出版社于 2012 年出版。 LifeStyle 与《中国新博物馆》作者 Clare Jacobsen 深入探讨 时下中国博物馆数量激增背后的力量。 LifeStyle spoke with Clare Jacobsen, author of New Museums in China, released by Princeton Architectural Press in 2012, to understand what’s driving this wave of new museums.
Museum Mania
博物馆狂人
为什么中国博物馆的发展速度如此之快 ? 能提供一些数据来帮助我们对其规 模有个基本的认识吗 ? 根据官方的统计数据：2000 年至 2011 年间，中国新建博物馆 1198 家。 这股兴建博物馆的热潮在很大程度上都得益于政府的支持。2012 年，中国 87% 的博物馆都由政府运营。2008 年到 2010 年，中国政府拨款 52 亿元用 于各类博物馆、纪念馆的建设。政府如此巨大的投入，可见博物馆之于制度 价值的重大意义。 在我看来，中国大规模兴建博物馆的现象是随着城市建设不断推进而产 生的。博物馆、歌剧院、图书馆等各类文化机构，都成为新兴城镇的标志性 建筑——就像西方国家的城市中心往往是教堂或市政厅所在地一样。无论是 政府资助的博物馆或民营博物馆，概莫能外。就上海来说，政府投资兴建的 中华艺术宫和上海当代艺术博物馆都选址在上海世博会场馆周边地区；而民 办的龙博物馆和余德耀美术馆也见证了“西岸文化走廊”的勃兴。在中国， 博物馆建成后便会在其周边形成住宅、办公及各类建筑功能区。 中国新开的博物馆都会在地理上集中于某个特定区域吗 ? 中国正沉浸在一场声势浩大的“建设”过程中，而我的研究对象遍及这个 国家的各个地区。无论城市规模大小，都有越来越多知名度极高的博物馆不断 涌现，似乎也在中国印证着“毕尔巴鄂效应”。毕尔巴鄂是曾一度衰落的西班 牙北部海岸的工业城市 , 后因美国解构主义建筑大师弗兰克 · 盖里 (Frank·O· Gehry) 设计了毕尔巴鄂古根海姆博物馆 (Guggenheim Museum Bilbao) 而闻名 遐迩。 当地旅游经济也随之被带动起来 , 整个城市也由此复兴 , 这被 《纽约时报》 形容为“一个奇迹”，也被称为“毕尔巴鄂效应”。我在书中不仅介绍了一些聚集 于中国艺术之都的博物馆，还涉及了澳门科学馆、哈尔滨中国木雕博物馆、以及 建在腾冲高黎贡山下新庄村边田野中的云南高黎贡手工造纸博物馆等零散分 布于各地的博物馆。 能谈谈当代艺术在表达中华文化方面的意义和作用吗 ? 就拿当代博物馆建筑来说吧。我认为其设计更侧重于体现全球趋势而非 某个具体的中国主题。当然也有例外，如王澍作于杭州的南宋御街陈列馆以 及贝聿铭担纲设计的苏州博物馆新馆，都实现了本地元素与现代形式的和谐 统一。但在我看来，大批新建博物馆在建筑设计方面并未体现出什么具体的 中国特色。

但必须承认，我的这个答案也有点精英主义意味。因为大部分入选我书 中的博物馆都是高品质建筑设计典范，而忽略了一些诸如像面中国大鼓一样 的建筑。当然还有很多非常正式且严谨地体现了中国文化的博物馆设计。但 那些犹如放大版粗略工艺品的建筑，着实无法获得很多关注，乃至尊重。 你认为未来十年中国的艺术展馆将走向何方 ? 很难预测此番博物馆建设热潮将持续多久。在不久前召开的文艺工作座 谈会上，习近平就提出了“不要搞奇奇怪怪的建筑”。这也许可以被解读为 政府将逐渐减少对博物馆建设的支持，毕竟很多博物馆本身就是一次次建筑 设计的冒险。缺少了政府的支持，这股热潮会很快终结。 不管未来走向如何，已经建成的新博物馆都为中国建筑和城市环境做出 了极为重要的贡献，也体现了这个国家未来文化表达的巨大发展潜力。在亲 身见证了这五年来中国博物馆的繁荣发展后，我对新建博物馆的发展前景十 分乐观。相信未来十年，它们会成为本地人和国际游客的首选目的地。同时， 其它许多博物馆会逐渐失去其原有功能，转型为活动场馆、大型购物中心、 餐厅或其他诸如教堂、电影院、银行、兵工厂等与博物馆完全无关的建筑形 态。这些建筑在丧失其初始功能后，会成为其所在社区的公共大厅、集散地 或新地标。

Why are museums opening with such rapidity in China? Can you explain this phenomenon, and
give us some numbers to help us understand the scale of these events?
According to government figures, China built
1198 museums between 2000 and 2011. This
museum-building boom is due in large part to government support. The bulk of museums in
China—87% as of 2012—are government run, and in just two years, between 2008 and 2010,
the Chinese government appropriated 5.2 billion
RMB to support museums and memorial halls.
This investment is important, as large government
expenditure indicates the systemic value that is placed on museums.
I think the museum-building phenomenon
coincides with China’s city-building phenomenon. Museums and other cultural institutions—opera
houses, libraries, etc.—are used to mark the center of new towns and major developments, much
like a church or a town hall marks the center of a
city in the West. Both government-sponsored and

private museums are used in this way. Here in
Shanghai, for example, the government-sponsored China Art Museum and Power Station of Art are at
the center of development of the site of the former
Shanghai World Expo site, while the privately owned Long Museum and Yuz Museum mark the
heart of the new West Bund development. At both these sites, and throughout China, these museum buildings are constructed first; housing, office, and other buildings follow.
Are the openings of new museums in China geographically centered- e.g. primarily in a specific region?
The museums I studied are built throughout
China, as city building is occurring nationwide.
While of course there are more and better-known museums in China’s prominent urban centers,
both small and large cities seem to be hoping for the “Bilbao effect”—that is, building museums in an attempt to rejuvenate cities, which began
after Frank Gehry’s successful 1997 Guggenheim
Museum Bilbao. My book includes both museums in China’s art centers as well as museums in farflung places including the China Wood Sculpture Museum in Harbin, the Macao Science Center in Macao, and the Museum of Handcraft Paper in Xianzhuang Village in western Yunnan.
Can you help us to understand what role
contemporary art plays in articulating notions of a Chinese identity and culture?
I can speak to the contemporary architecture
of the museums. I think the design of museum buildings has much more to do with global trends than with specifically Chinese themes. There are rare exceptions
including, for example Wang Shu’s Museum of the Imperial Road in Hangzhou,
which uses a local bridge form as its inspiration, and I. M. Pei’s Suzhou Museum, which mixes local forms with Modern forms. But it seems to me the bulk of new museums are not specifically Chinese in their architectural design.
I must admit I’m being a bit elitist in this answer. As I chose museums for my
book in large part due to their quality architectural design, I ignored, for example, the museum shaped like a large Chinese drum. There are of course these very formal, very strict representations of Chinese culture in museum design. But museums that are just blown-up versions of artifacts don’t warrant a lot of respect. What do you predict the Chinese art scene will look like in, say, 2025?
It is difficult to predict how long the museum-building boom will last. President
Xi Jinping’s recent call for “no more weird architecture” may be read as an indication that the government will pull away from supporting museum building,
as museums are some of the most adventurous architectural designs. Without government support, the boom will end.
Regardless of future building, new museums in China that have been built have
made significant contributions to China’s architecture and urban environment and offer great potential for the country’s future cultural expression. I can only speculate,
but having personally witnessed the development of all aspects of museums— not just their architecture—in my five years in China, I am very optimistic that
some of these new museums will become important institutions for both local and international visitors by 2025. I also speculate that others will lose their function
as museums and become event venues, shopping malls, restaurants, or other non-
museum-related types, much as churches, movie theaters, bank halls, and armories have been reused in the States. While these will lose the original purpose they had within their communities, they will retain their prominence as communal halls, place makers, gathering points, even orientation devises.

2014 年，青年收藏家林瀚在北京 798 创立了 M WOODS 私人收藏美术馆。 M WOODS 致力于培养及扶持青年艺术家，为北京艺术发展注入新血液， 而他本人何尝不是中国当代艺术圈里新锐力量的代表：风华正茂、 雄心昭昭而又生机勃勃。 Owner of M Woods gallery, Lin Han has made quite an impression with the show opened this fall. More than just a new gallery owner, Lin Han represents a new type of collector- young, ambitious, and intent on injecting new energy into Beijing’s art scene. LifeStyle visited M Woods to understand what inspires him.
The Collector
艺术要启发对话
Lin Han and guests at the opening of “Pale Fire”
是什么让你成为艺术收藏人的？ 我很早就涉足商海，但艺术始终让我激情盎然。我最开始的时候只是收藏自己的 心头好，后来就想跟公众一起分享，因为艺术总能引发很多有趣的讨论，让人产生灵 感和想象。这么好的东西当然要大家分享。 作为一个类别，中国当代艺术有什么特别之处？ 我本人不太喜欢将过去和现代、中国和外国撇得那么泾渭分明。在 M WOODS 美术馆，每间展示厅都有两幅作品，以创建它们之间的对话：西方撞见东方、大家之 作邂逅后起之秀、挑衅与挑衅正面交锋……我不希望北京被视为中国唯一的艺术中心， 艺术中心还是多几个比较好。 中国艺术家、策展人和收藏家能给全球艺术注入什么别样成分？ 再次重申，我不喜欢以国籍来分类我喜欢的艺术家，以及我的美术馆。毋庸置疑， 中国和中国文化一直是一个深刻而又让人着迷的主题，全球的艺术家、策展人和收藏 家都能、而且应该参与进来。 分享一下 M WOODS 的情况，还有你的计划、策略和未来项目吧。 本质上来说，M WOODS 是我自己用来分享作品的平台，雷晚萤 ( 大家都叫她晚晚 ) 担任策展人。我们现在正筹备第二个装置，计划 2015 年春天与公众见面。我们希望 保持能擦出思想火花、富有启发性的对话，希望 M WOODS 最终能成为一个财务上 可持续发展的当代艺术平台，但又不被过度商业化。

Inside M Woods’ unique space
Tell us about what inspired you to become an art collector- and why contemporary art in China is ever more part of social and everyday life.
I started doing business at a young age, but always found art inspiring. I started collecting some
of my favorite pieces, and decided I needed to share them with the general public. Art can start a lot of interesting discussions and inspiration; it would be unfair not to share it.
What distinguishes Chinese contemporary art from contemporary art for you, as a category?
I don’t like to make these divisions between ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign. In M
Woods, every room of the gallery is specially designed to put two works in dialogue, asking
questions of each other; West meets East, established works meeting newer artists, provocation
meeting provocation. I don’t want Beijing to be seen as the center for Chinese art, but rather as one Lin Han, curator Wanwan Lei, and guests
of several centers for art more generally.
What special thing can Chinese artists, curators and collectors bring to a global discourse of art?
Again, I want to resist categorizing my gallery and the artists I prefer by nationality; having said
which, China and Chinese culture is undoubtedly a profound and fascinating subject, one which artists, curators and collectors of all nationalities can and should engage with.
Tell us about M Woods, your vision, your curatorial strategies, and projects for the future.
Essentially, M Woods is a platform for me to share the works that most inspire me, curated by
Wanwan Lei. We are now preparing for our second installation, scheduled for spring 2015; we want to keep sparking conversations, inspiring new dialogues, and ultimately become a financially sustainable platform for contemporary art, without becoming overly commercial.

田霏宇看中国当代艺术
Tinari and friends at the New York Armory Show, 2014
作为策展人 , 是什么让你对中国有了兴趣 ? 我 2001 年来到中国 , 正是 9·11 事件发生的前一周。我第一次看的展览是关于雕塑的。现在回想起来 , 这次 经历应该就是我在中国艺术生涯的开始。通常展览都是以短信的形式推广宣传 , 同时也有非常私密的社群团体会 去参观这些展览。我曾有幸与许多策展人一起工作，还做过翻译，也常带旅游团出入 798，那段时间的收获特别大。 中国当代艺术的社会功能体现在哪些方面？ 我认为艺术在中国所发挥的社会功能是十分巨大且影响深远的。不仅提供了厘清公众认识的机会，更让与 官方或商业化有差别的意见有了争鸣与交锋的机会。 中国当代艺术的受众有何特点 ? 从各个方面来看，政府已经意识到北京作为国际大都市应该为当代艺术提供生存发展的空间；上海则有所 不同。北京不仅有浓厚的艺术氛围 , 更汇聚了无数艺术家、许多专业院校和画廊，但专门致力于推广当代艺术的 画廊却屈指可数。 同样作为国际化大都市，你认为上海和北京的艺术发展有何差别？ 上海是更讲求效率的全球化大都市。在我们接触的人中，很多还未意识到自己对艺术的关注，这点很令人 新奇。作为一个中产阶级占主导的城市 , 上海有利于艺术的发展。 另一方面，尽管北京有很多固有的问题 , 但艺术家能够在像中国这样大的国家的首都开办展览，就意味着迈 出了走向国际的第一步，绝对是意义非凡。能否在北京站稳脚跟，都是艺术家和专业人士衡量自己的重要标准。

在我看来，上海仍将走得更远，但北京却是个门槛更低、能海纳百川的地方。 还记得奥运会前后，北京被认为是充满希望的，空气质量似乎也有望改善，但 那段日子已经一去不复返了。 讽刺的是 , 致力于为两千万人打造国际级当代艺术殿堂的重任落在了几个 比利时人身上——比如，尤伦斯当代艺术中心的创始人们。尤伦斯当代艺术中 心将继续努力推动中国当代艺术的发展、促进国际交流、为公众呈现最具前瞻 性的艺术与文化。 为什么艺术会在中国社会产生如此影响 ? 随着社交网络深度融入我们的生活，每个社会元素都彼此交叉。就像德 国思想家瓦尔特·本雅明说的那样——“光晕”身上具有一种独特的魅力，当 艺术的独一无二性开启的距离越远时，越会赢得人们的亲近。 As a curator, what sparked your interest in China?
I came here to China in 2001, a week before 9/11; the first exhibition I saw when
I came was a collection of sculptures campus of the very first SOHO developments. In retrospect, this time was the very tail end of the underground, or the beginning of
the professionalization of art in China and the creation of the “art world.” Exhibitions
were usually publicized by text message, and there was a very tight-knit community of people who would show up to galleries- I feel very lucky to have seen that. I worked
with curators, doing translations, and lead tour groups around 798- at that time, a marginal space.
Tinari at home in Beijing
What’s the social function of contemporary art in China and in other places and how are foreigners influencing this?
I think that art serves a very social function in China and it has for a very long time
and it continues to. It is a space for the public articulation and a discussion of ideas that works in ways that are different than official and commercial culture. What public is being addressed by contemporary art in China?
Beijing is in many ways a problematic case; authorities are aware that being an
international city means having some kind of ecology for contemporary art. Shanghai is different, but Beijing it has a huge art scene, tons of artists, an academy, and there
are lots of galleries- but in terms of galleries specifically dedicated to contemporary

art, there are very few.
Speaking to the idea of the global city, how do you differentiate between art movements in Shanghai and Beijing?
Shanghai is much more efficiently articulated in that globalized way. I get excited
It’s ironic that that running the international contemporary

大体上来说，从 94 年开始涉足中国当代文化到现在，当代艺术在中国有哪些发展变化？ 当我 94 年第一次来中国时，这里既没有供当代艺术展示的场所，也没有观众。“非官方”的艺术展览仍被 认为是“离经叛道”的，其中大部分捱不过开幕日就夭折了。北京唯一定期有展出的地方是王府井的中央美术学 院美术馆，观众多数是一些艺术家、艺术狂热分子和外国记者，而现在的情况可以用日新月异来形容，不管是官 方行为，还是民间活动，艺术都已经成为了社会主流。传媒和市场，房地产和奢侈品行业，老的少的，都由衷喜 欢，你翻开一本杂志，总少不了艺术方面的文章。 你曾说 BANK 努力在商业艺术和学院艺术之间走一条“中和”之道。这个策略是基于什么样的考虑？ 这二者之间经常对立区别，但时而又不可避免地交融。作为一名艺术工作者，我一直都努力避免艺术里的 商业成分，所以对于我来说很长一段时间里，金钱似乎模糊了艺术批判和理想主义层面，但自从涉足商业本身之 后，我的想法改变了。以前还有人称我为“老大不情愿的画廊主”。我对艺术与观众之间思想情感交流的潜力非 常感兴趣，而不一定是商业价值。 BANK 最初是以策展工作室的姿态成立的，国际艺术家在这里能参与各种相关活动。 我们促成艺术家工作室、其他画廊和藏家们的有趣项目，并进行扩充。不过，我们没有投资商，或者说处 于非盈利状态，要靠售卖艺术品而存活，所以我们在运营上做了些许调整。藏家希望你能代表个别艺术家——“代 表”被看成对艺术家成就的认可，可以提高其在市场上的价值。虽然我们代表一小众艺术家，但他们处于稳步上 升期，他们的作品与当代文化话语相关，我们仍然会为其举办大型专题展览，并附带艺术批评。除此之外，我们 还出书、发表文章和开展相关项目，以满足学术兴趣。

Broadly speaking, how has the audience/public for contemporary art in China evolved since you were first involved (in 1994)?
When I arrived in China for the first time in 1994 there was neither an audience nor many venues for contemporary
art. “Unofficial” art exhibitions were still considered renegade and most exhibitions were closed before or during the opening reception. The only venue in Beijing that had regular programming was the CAFA Gallery off of Wangfujing. The audience was a rag tag consortium of mostly artists, wannabes, and foreign journalist types. As we all know this has
fundamentally changed. Art is now a mainstream affair with both the government and private sector, media and market, real estate and luxury goods industries, young and old, embracing it whole heartedly. It seems that you can’t open a magazine these days, including this one, without seeing an article about art.
You’ve said that BANK tries to split the middle between the commercial art world and the academic art world. How does this strategy play out, and what ideas are behind this objective?
There is a distinction in the art circles between what is considered academic, critical or theoretical, and that which is
seen as commercial. These two sides of the line are usually in antagonistic relation with one another but inevitably join now and again. Being an artist and critic myself I have always tried to avoid the commercial aspects of the art world. For a long time it seemed to me that money obscured the critical and idealistic aspects of art. My perspective has changed since I
am now in the business per se, but I am, as someone once wrote, a reluctant gallerist. I am interested in the potential of art to communicate ideas and emotions, not necessarily in its trade value.
When BANK first opened it was conceived as a curatorial studio, a place where a program of international artists would
engage issues relevant to the global contemporary condition. We procured interesting works from artists studios, other
galleries, and from collectors to fill out this program. However, since we have no investor or not-for-profit status we need to sell artworks in order to survive so our vision has shifted slightly. Collectors expect you to represent certain artists -
representation is seen as an endorsement of artist’s excellence as well as a support and promotion for their value in the market. While we represent a small, but growing stable of artists, we consider these artists’ work pertinent to the discourse of contemporary culture and we still put on large group thematic exhibitions with a critical bend. We also publish books and articles, and have an institutional projects going on outside the gallery which help to satisfy our academic interests.
What’s the relationship between contemporary art and art galleries and urban space? Is there a process of gentrification led by artists and galleries here, and if so, how is it different in China than in other countries/cities?
Artists and the establishments that grow up around them have always been employed throughout the world by real estate
48 LifeStyle
developers as a way to raise property values. This process of gentrification also occurs in China. The defunct factory or outlying warehouse complexes such as 798 and M50 are prime examples of this.
M50 in fact has several “products” (Taopu, Peninsula 1919, M50 Baoshan, etc.) which depend solely
on the allure of artists and creative industries for cache. They have done quite well in systematically alluring artists only to kick them out a few years later when the prices rise dramatically.
In China luxury developers also use contemporary art as an advertising strategy by organizing
exhibitions in their newly built spaces as marketing events. Art for both real estate and the luxury goods market has been a way to distinguish themselves from other brands by giving it, what they
see as a sophisticated edge. The Zendai group in Shanghai has consistently had museums in their shopping centers, while recent exhibitions in newly opened upscale shopping plaza’s like Kerry
Center and REEL in Shanghai’s Jingan district are more examples of the merger of real estate
and contemporary art. In fact the intimate relationship between real estate and art has fuelled both industries quite advantageously.
Recently, a plethora of major new galleries- public and private- have opened in Shanghai. Has there
been a shift in the art world from Beijing to Shanghai happening nowadays? Why did you choose
to base BANK in Shanghai? What are the different forces- governmental, collectors, artists, etc- in play in the two cities?
When I moved to Shanghai in 2007 there was the feeling then that things were beginning to
happen here. There was the new art fair (SH Contemporary), the longstanding biennial, and the
few galleries that were here were going strong. I initially moved here not so much that there was an upward trend in the arts but because there was opportunity. Compared to Beijing where the art
world was quite established, Shanghai was a clean white slate. But one of Shanghai’s major obstacles
in becoming a centre for culture isn’t its lack of galleries or fairs, it is its lack of appeal to artists. Compared to Beijing, Shanghai has always been perceived as too expensive, too unwelcoming for outsiders (waidiren), and absent of a major art academy.
This is changing, mostly from the top down. The new museums, fairs, and galleries have been
instrumental in attracting artists but so have the newly emerging collectors here. A growing circle of young collectors have been the major force in bringing the market to Shanghai and with it have come
artists. It is extremely important that there is creative grassroots activity by and from the artists in order for a city to have sustenance as an artistic centre. They are the bloodline for the arts.
Is contemporary art in China destined to be of relevance only to elite, first-tier city upper-middle
class globalized audiences, or can it be of broader social relevance? If the latter, what strategies can
curators, culture ministry officials, artists and journalists use to build a platform for art to become more broadly disseminated?
I come from a very modest upbringing. I grew up in the suburbs and my father’s a carpenter yet
I have been engaged in the arts most of my life to the point that it has become my life. I believe that the arts are universal, and for art to be good it has to communicate on a universal level. Unfortunately like all industries, contemporary art has becomes more and more a specialised discipline. As a
programmer, often in the public sphere, I am constantly thinking about these issues- How to make
contemporary art accessible to a larger audience?, How to create points of entry to the work? or, How to get contemporary art out of the exclusive digs of the “white cube space”? This is something that is happening not only with my efforts but by practioners the world over. In fact due to some of these efforts art and the art world has never been bigger and more influential in modern history.
One of the biggest obstacles to understanding contemporary art is for a non-acquainted audience
to get over their pre-conceptions about what art is. My suggestion is for people to take the word
“art” out of the equation in order to engage with the work more freely and openly. Contemporary art addresses our contemporary condition of which we are all a part of, so it should theoretically be easier to understand than say, a renaissance painting.
Certainly from a consumer point of view, most contemporary art isn’t inexpensive but then again it
is a matter of priority. It is a matter of how you choose to spend your money. Before I owned a home
or a car I had already collected a bunch of art. We have sold art to many first time art buyers who have modestly paying jobs but who are intrigued and passionate enough to put their money where Stephen Wrught lecture “Usership”
their heart is. But the problem is collecting art is addictive, once you start its hard to stop!

Merci Pour Ce Moment
艺术不是大众消费品
这么多年来，你眼中的中国艺术界有什么发展变化？ 当代艺术的观众有了巨大的变化。我初次来中国的时候，这里的当代艺术圈还主要是“西方世界”，画廊 主要么是西方人，要么就是台湾人或香港人，只有艺术家是中国人，相关的机构也几乎为零，大部分活动靠商业 利益驱使。也正是这个原因，许多作品都非常花哨，只为博个噱头，十分表面化。当然，我是在上海落脚，我说 的情况也许不适用于北京，北京总要前卫一些。 你为什么选择创办出版公司，而不是画廊？区别在哪？有什么方法可以平衡，或者说兼顾商业项目里的艺术成分？ 其实旅行回来后，很自然地，我就产生了要开一家出版公司的想法。西方人对中国及其中国当代艺术的漠 视让我惊讶不已。不能说不好奇，但媒体所有的注意力都集中在一两个艺术家身上，跟我实际经历的相差甚远， 所以我就想创建一个平台，拓宽人们的视野。开画廊需要更多预算，而且只能固定在一个地方，吸引特定的收藏 家；出版公司不一样，它能让我出现在更多的地方。不过，在欧洲开实体店也很重要，这样小城里的法国人也能 买到我们的书。 说到平衡，我把出版公司的规模控制得很小，这样成本最低，而且在面对兴趣不大的商业项目时，不至于 太被动。我觉得现代社会的信息超负荷了，从金钱角度来说，以数量取胜和争取最大的佣金会获得更大回报，但 我更倾向于出版自己想要出版的东西。 中国与欧洲相比，艺术的接受情况有什么不同？这种不同对城市发展有什么影响？ 与其他国家不同，中国的情况很有趣。在法国，去看艺术意味着去博物馆瞻仰艺术家的遗作，逛画廊只是 小部分人会做的事，而中国艺术画廊拥有的观众比博物馆多，比如 798 就是北京第三大人气观光地——意味着展 出的艺术品都是工作室新鲜“出炉”的，这点很特别。这边的博物馆有点像大规模的艺术画廊，只是藏品不多。
50 LifeStyle
说到艺术和城市的关系，我觉得艺术“占 领”了北京很大的地盘，东北部有大量的艺 术家工作室和艺术工厂，而且产出颇丰。我 觉得这给北京经济带来了相当积极的影响。 当代艺术还是精英们的专享么，如果不是， 情况有什么变化？ 无论何时何地，艺术主要还是文化和经 济上层人的消费品，要扩大它的受众只是一 个美好愿望。你办一个艺术展，当然希望人 人都来看，但最终只会出现某一类人群。我 觉得开办博物馆非常好，过去几年里，去观 展的观众人数大大增多了。 What evolution have you witnessed in the Chinese art world?
The audience for Chinese contemporary art
changed tremendously since I first came here. When I first arrived in China, contemporary art
was mainly a western world, only the artists were Chinese. The gallerists were westerners
or from Taiwan or Hong Kong. There were almost no institutions, and the scene was mainly
commercially driven. Because of that, many of
the works were quite gimmicky and superficially
Chinese. When I arrived I was in Shanghai, so
Jeremie Thircuir, founding director of Editions Thircuir
what I saying may not apply to Beijing which has always been more edgy.
Why did you choose to do a press, rather than a gallery? What’s different here? What are
the ways to balance artistic credentials with commercially-driven projects?
The idea of the press came to me quite
naturally, when I was travelling back home. I was surprised to see how people were ignorant
about China and its contemporary art scene. There was a huge curiosity, but all the media attention
was focused on a couple of artists and was really far from what I was experiencing in my daily
activities. The idea was then to create a platform to broaden this understanding. Opening a gallery requires a much bigger budget and only targets
a certain audience of collectors, as a gallery is a local structure. The publishing house allows me to be present in many more locations. I also think it’s
important to be physically in Europe, the fact that a French guy in a small town can buy my titles
Regarding the balance, I keep the publishing
house really small with minimal costs; in this
way, I can be free of any commercial pressure and don’t really have to do commercial projects I’m
not interested in. I think we are in a society overloaded with content. Even if financially, playing the quantity card and trying to get a maximum of commission would be more rewarding, I prefer to decide what I want to publish.
What are differences between how art is received in China and Europe- and how this impacts the city’s development?
China is very interesting for this. Unlike other countries, art galleries have a stronger
audience than museums. In France, going to see art means going to a museums where
dead artists’ works are displayed. Galleries are only visited by a small minority of the population. In a city like Beijing, 798 is now the third most visited place of the city. It
means that most of the art being seen is fresh from the studios, which is something quite unique. Even the museums here operate like overscaled art galleries without collections.
Regarding art and the city, I think art occupies a large proportion of Beijing. A huge
part of the north-east is occupied by artists’ studios, art-factories and due to the scale of the
projects produced by the artists, I think the art scene has quite a great impact in the city’s economy.
Is contemporary art a luxury elite category? How is this changing, if it is?
Art anywhere in the world and at any period of history is mainly received by cultural or
financial elites. The idea of broadening its reception is only a matter of intention. You can show art with the intent of reaching everyone but only a certain category of people will
show up. I think the movement of museums openings is quite good and that the scope of audience has been widely broadening over the last years.

香港学者潘律的新书《美化公共空间》即将面世。 本期 LifeStyle 有机会与她深入探讨画廊外的街头艺术。 Ahead of the publication of her upcoming book “Aestheticizing Public Space,” LifeStyle spoke with Hong Kong-based academic Pan Lu about art outside of the gallery.
Bringing Art to the Street
让艺术走上街头
Street Art in Seoul, Jungwon
French artist JR in Tokyo
能谈谈亚洲的街头艺术吗？为什么会这么吸引你？ 对亚洲的涂鸦和街头艺术的好奇心，令我流连于这片土地。我从日本朋友那里知道了横滨的樱木町，又从 韩国朋友那里听说了釜山的 AGIT 和首尔的城市艺术项目“Urban Art Project”。2012 年，法国街头艺术家 JR 带 着自己的照相亭概念造访香港，我还参加了他的“Inside Out”项目。参与过的活动和遇到过的每个人都帮我拓 宽了自己的研究领域。 与画廊里的艺术相比，街头艺术在走近大众时有哪些优势？为什么有些艺术家选择走上街头而不是走进画廊 ? 首先 , 我觉得很难说这些涂鸦者是不是自己愿意被称为“艺术家”。在涂鸦圈子里 , 他们更愿意说自己是一 名“作家”（Writer）。其中一部分作家有平面设计背景或接受过与艺术相关的培训 , 但也有很多人从未接受过 任何艺术教育。东亚地区最著名的作家之一，VERY 一直在日本大阪做 DJ, 后来才开始涂鸦创作。我发现他们与 市场总有着微妙的联系。一方面 , 博物馆和艺术画廊不是这些涂鸦作家作品的最终归宿，这也是与一般艺术家作 品的不同之处。当然，他们中间也有和艺术画廊保持良好合作的范例。2005 年 , 日本茨城县水户市曾举办过一个 名为“未来色彩 : 日本涂鸦艺术”（X-Color:GraffitiinJapan）的展览 , 我发现当时最活跃的涂鸦作家和街头艺术家 占了参展名单中绝大部分。很多涂鸦作家都有自己的事业且多涉及商业化的涂鸦设计 , 但城市的公共空间和街道 才是他们最好的画布。另一方面 , 涂鸦是否是一门艺术的争论还在持续。此外，作品欣赏者也是一个重要因素。 相对于艺术画廊来说，街头视觉作品需要更加开放且非程式化的观众群体。用整个城市作为展示作品的画廊，参 观者是身边不可计数的路人——这是让涂鸦作家选择留在街头的重要原因。 香港地区和大陆其他城市的街头艺术实践有何差别 ? 街头艺术比其他传统艺术更具“都市感”吗 ? 即使在香港商业化的娱乐业中已颇具名声 , 但诸如涂鸦和街头艺术这样的亚文化产品依旧是十分边缘的艺术

形式。香港的公共空间多被填塞于拥挤的生活休闲空间和商圈之间，且为商业 广告所占据。香港公共环境中随处可见安保人员、公共空间被过度监控的另一 个原因是私营企业的不断崛起。 说到街头视觉作品的“城市化”问题（我总试图澄清，街头视觉作品不 一定是艺术）, 我想举香港的两个独特案例——“渠王”和“九龙皇帝”。渠 王，原籍深圳，原名严照棠，是香港一名男性通渠匠。他的手绘涂鸦广告在香 港随处可见，深入民心，已经成为了香港集体回忆的一部分。农民出身的渠 王是家中长子，因饥荒十多岁就从大陆偷渡来到香港，曾做过建筑工、水电 工。为了争取更多生意，他开始在香港街头用白色油漆涂写“渠王通渠免棚 92263203”。极具个性的字体风格使“渠王”跻身涂鸦作家之列。就某方面来说，
The work of Charles Mok, the late “King of Kowloon”
渠王与另外一位 1960 年代以来便以其独特笔迹在全城留下印记的“九龙皇帝” 如出一辙。香港很多地方均有他的笔迹，行文多讲述自己及家族的过往事迹， 宣示对九龙“主权”。起初九龙皇帝的“作品”也多招世人嘲笑与无视，后被 艺术家们“发现”，随即升级为“艺术家”。此二人的作品都为我们找到了思 考人与城市、艺术与日常物品之间关系的独特视角。这也让我想起了现在中国 大陆很常见的一个有趣现象，那就是随处可见的“办证”。我特别好奇它们将 来是不是也会成为一种艺术。最近还在柏林墙看到了两个汉字呢。 Tell us about street art in Asia, why it fascinates you so much.
My curiosity about Asian graffiti and street art has inspired my frequent travels
around the continent. I learned from my friends in Japan and Korea about the existence
and history of Sakuragicho in Yokohama, the AGIT indie art space in Busan, and the Urban Art Project in Seoul. I also participated in the Inside Out Project of JR, a French
street artist, when he took his photo booth concept during his visit to Hong Kong in 2012. All these events and the people I met encouraged me to expand my research beyond the Chinese and Hong Kong contexts and to embark on an adventure.
What potential for reaching audiences and publics does street art have that work displayed within the confines of the gallery lacks? Why some artists take to the streets instead of galleries?
First of all, I think it is difficult to say whether these graffitists would like to call
themselves artists or not. Although some of writers do have graphic design or artrelated training background, there are also many who haven’t received any art
education. For example, one of most famous writers in East Asia – VERY (weibo: VERY1HS) from Osaka, Japan has always been mainly working as a DJ, and then
took up graffiti writing. In my research, I found that they have a subtle relation with the market. On the one hand, unlike artists, museums and art galleries are not their
final destination. Of course also have experience in working with art galleries (e.g. in 2005, Mito City in Ibaraki Prefecture in Japan held an exhibition named “X-Color: Graffiti in Japan”, where I found most of the most active writers and street artists in the
participant list), and some also run their own business that is related to graffiti design for commercial use but their best canvas is the city per se: the public space and streets. On the other hand, the debate on whether graffiti is art has always been on-going.
Another thing I want to mention is the audience: street visuals expect a much more
open and much less institutionalized audience than artworks in galleries do. I think that excitement of reaching out to the whole city as your gallery and the whole urban dwellers as your spectator makes writers remain on the street.
How do street art practices differ between HK and mainland and other cities? Is street art ‘urban’ in a way that perhaps more conventional work is not?
Despite being famous for its commercial entertainment industries, subcultural
forms in Hong Kong, such as graffiti and street art, are marginal and much less visible.
In Hong Kong, the public space is predominantly occupied by commercial advertisements packed in a highly congested
living, business, and leisure space. The government had been
deeply involved in issues such as hygiene, the concept of a “modern” lifestyle, urban visual order, and taxation. The
growing power of private corporations over Hong Kong’s public space is another reason for the over-surveillance of Hong Kong’s public environment, which is commonly monitored by a considerable number of security guards.
Talking about the “urbanity” of street visuals (not
necessarily art, as I try to argue), I would like to introduce two unique cases of public writing in Hong Kong: the legends
of two “kings,” namely, the “King of the Sewers” (quwang) and the “King of Kowloon.” The “King of the Sewers”
illegally migrated to Hong Kong from Shenzhen in his teenage
years, and eked out a living as a construction worker and an apprentice in a plumbing and electronic repair shop. He later became a leading self-employed sewer man. To save
on advertising costs, he opted to paint his self-designed ads all over Hong Kong’s slopes, electric lighting posts or drain covers, promoting his service with very concise information
and his telephone number, 92263203. Given that many of these advertisements were written in a characteristic font and
style, the name of quwang was unmistakably linked to a single
“writer.” The pervasive advertisements aroused the interest of local photographers, who launched a project to identify the “mysterious” street “king,” who has become a highly
influential person in Hong Kong’s everyday visual perception of public space in 2008. Meanwhile, “King of Kowloon” is a veteran graffitist in Hong Kong who has been writing about his
personal history and that of Hong Kong using his paint brushes on the surfaces of various public facilities since the 1960s. He
was firstly laughed at, ignored, and then “discovered” by artists and made into “artist” in the end. The calligraphy of “King of
Kowloon” now almost becomes a popular icon of Hong Kong culture. Their writings opened up new perspectives for us to
think about not only the relation between human and the city,
but also between art and everyday objects. This also reminds me of interesting things that are going on in Mainland China
now. I am particularly curious about whether the omnipresent “ban zheng” writings in China would develop into a kind of art or not in the future

Museum, one of the finest spaces for contemplation of Chang’an’s glorious past in Xi’an city. Kudos to these hoteliers,
who have recognized more clearly than nearly any of their counterparts that aesthetic appreciation and meditation on the artifacts of the past is central to contemporary luxury living. Xi’an, cradle of the T’ang dynasty and some of the most
brilliant masterpieces created in China, is a perfect place to explore tradition, from the porcelain pieces on loan from the
Nanjing museum, a 2,700 year old suit of golden armor (the only one discovered in China), and a stone Buddha head that is
1,400 years old. As you emerge inspired by the genius of ancient China, you’ll step into a hotel that exemplifies the modern Chinese style at its best. The Westin Xi’an is truly leading the way not only in China, but globally in a balanced and careful arts strategy.

Along with similar events held in Taipei and Gwangju, it’s one of the foremost expressions of the biennial impulse- a subversion of typical museum strategies that makes art into an “event.”

contemporary art museum, for the second time-
Anselm Franke, The Chief Curator for The 10th Shanghai Biennale
anecdotally, the power station of art was named in a
negotiation between 9th Biennial curators Boris Groys
and Qiu Zhijie. Themed upon the idea of the “Social Factory”, the 10th Biennale asks what characterizes
the production of the social, and how “social facts” are constituted. The exhibition pamphlet included a
stirring quote from Liang Qichao, who wrote in 1902 “Since we are in contact with fiction every day, its quality affects us just as the air we breathe and the food
we eat; if the air is polluted or the food contaminated, those who live in this environment will certainly
languish, fall sick, meet with tragic death, or fall into moral degeneration.” Written over a century ago, these words couldn’t be a more timely reminder about the significance of art and literature today.

对话海清 先简单介绍一下剧中饰演的角色吧 我饰演的是一个叫李娴淑的女孩。她是地主的女儿，但因在海外留学的背景使她成为了一位进步的新时代的知识女青年。 您曾经在《落地请开手机》里跟孙红雷老师有过短暂的合作，第二次合作，感觉跟多年之前的合作有什么不一样或者一样的地 方吗？ 我觉得有一点是一样的，就是还是什么话都可以说，然后没有任何芥蒂，他说我听，我说他听，对的他做，对了我做。我 觉得这个关系特别简单，然后我觉得还有一点就是红雷还是像以前那么认真。那时候拍《落地请开手机》的时候，我就觉得这 个男演员真用功，现在依然如此，我觉得他没有什么变化。 这次跟孙红雷老师两个人的合作，包括康导在一起，然后应该会加入很多亮点或者碰撞出很多火花来吧？ 对，肯定的！我们这几个都不是省油的灯，所以每天在现场的时候，在理解剧本的基础上，我们都会对角色有自己的一些 想法，征求导演最后的定夺，我觉得导演给的方向非常准确。 此次在《二炮手》中的合作，两位老师其实也是有一种说不清道不明的复杂关系是吧？ 这样的戏都会不可避免的绕不开一个男女的爱情线。其实在那样的一个年代，我们不敢去定义说这些人发生的事情，到底 是什么样的感情。可能这两个人之间的感情不仅仅是亲情，大于友情，和爱情的界定不那么明确，又将爱情包容在其中，它是 一种很奇妙的感情。这种感情对创作者来说，多少有一点理想化的。现实中，可能我们剧本人物发展到这个地方，爱情就一定 都会发生，但我们人为地没有这么做，而是想用这样的方式去诠释在战争年代下，人物真正质感上的情感。 之前也听您说过，演员就像一个小孩，不能给他同一个玩具，要给他新鲜感。那这次您饰演了这个角色之后，觉得跟以前的相 比的颠覆和突破是什么？ 我之前其实对于战争戏，真的挺抵触的。我不知道一个女人在里面能有什么样的定位，我挺迷惑的。一个女的在战场上面 叱咤风云，我根本不相信。我想一个女的在战争题材里面，可能最多承载的也就是爱情这一个分量的定位。但我没想到的是， 她不仅仅承载了战争和爱情，还承载了一些其他的。我觉得这一点的确是跟别的戏不一样的地方。 您会不会觉得自己事实上跟这个角色有什么相同的契合点，又或者演起来的话 , 会不会跟这个角色有一些心理上的代沟？ 跟角色之间的距离，在戏外的时候挺大的，挺麻烦的，这个戏困难的不是剧。我是要去捋她为什么这么做，我很多时间是 琢磨李四到底是什么样的一个人，我琢磨编剧为什么要这么写她，我更多的时候是想的是这个。所以这样一想，反倒现场去看 台词的时候会更加清晰。因为你知道她心里是怎么想的，她对每个人的态度，她是什么样的女孩，她在乎什么，不在乎什么， 她软肋是什么，她喜欢什么，憎恶什么，我想的更多是这个。

H a i Qing
has the ability to play all kinds of roles, from a bold Shanghai girl struggling with her mother to a kindhearted Chinese wife, or even the independent women of the 70’s
era. Ten years after her acting debut, Haiqing has entered
the peak of her career in film and in the television industry. Regardless of the vagaries of the market, Haiqing stands strong among China’s A-list actors, with an undisputed reputation as the ‘Golden Girl of Ratings’.
The talented actress considers herself lucky. She
believes that her talent has been welcomed by audiences with love and recognition, which has led to her many
honors and awards. The consistently high ratings of her work has also naturally earned her a lot of other
opportunities. Over the past few years she has always
been associated with the younger generation. Recently,
she played the role of a young North-Eastern girl named Li Xianshu in “The Legendary Snipers” TV series.
In the drama’s sophisticated scenes, the rigors of
war were recreated alongside a fierce plot, making it a
gripping war drama. Haiqing admitted that in this drama she fulfilled her wish to collaborate one more time with
her acting guru Sun Honglei. Sun Honglei says, “Laughter filled the room during each shooting session. Haiqing’s
acting was always genuine, she was always thoughtful in every scene.”
With her unique screen presence which audiences
know as ‘Haiqing’s style,’ she has shown the audience her indisputable acting ability along with her own strong
personality, winning over the audience’s recognition. Unlike her expressive on-screen personality, the off-screen
Haiqing remains sincerely reserved; she is elegantly simple. As she said: “Let the wind blow, let the rain fall, it
doesn’t matter where they come and go, I will still remain the same Haiqing, the actress.” As her name suggests,
literally translated as “The Clear Sea,” she is like a grand
ocean with refreshingly calm tides crashing on the shore softly. Her admirable beauty will forever remain in our hearts.

Dialogue Could you briefly explain the role you are playing in the drama?
I play a girlish character called Li Xianshu. She is the daughter of a landlord. Studying
abroad has made her become a progressive young woman in the middle of the new era of knowledge.
You previously also collaborated with Sun Honglei in the 2008 movie “Landing, Please Open Your Mobile Phone.” Coming together again years later, do you feel any significant change from the first collaboration?
I feel it’s quite the same; I can say whatever I want with no grudge. Sun Honglei
respects my opinion and I also respect his. We do things for our own sake. It’s a pretty simple relationship. I also think Honglei remains serious as he always has been. When we collaborated together in “Landing, Please Open Your Mobile Phone”, I saw him as a great actor, and I always will.
This time acting together with Sun Honglei under the leadership of Director Kang must be even more exciting, right?
Of course! We always take things seriously. In every session, we always contribute our own
perspective and ideas in understanding the play and in our acting interpretations, making sure
we satisfy Director Kang and the direction he wants us to go. I think his direction is always very accurate.
In “The Legendary Snipers”, collaborating with two big names must make for a complex onset relationship. What do you think about this?
This is a story of inevitable love between a man and a woman. During war time, it was
hard to understand people’s desires, stifled as they were by vicissitudes of society. Perhaps what they felt was not only affection, it was more than just friendship, but it was also hard to
define what love was. With the existence of love, feelings become complicated and strangely wonderful. In reality, it is possible for us to experience love, but we are just not always able to
make it happen. In contrast, understanding love during wartime can throw emotional struggles into sharp relief.
We also heard you once stated that being an actor is like being a little boy; it’s considered not
good to keep giving him the same toy. We must make him feel like he is getting something
new all the time. Before and after playing this role, with this kind of perspective, do you feel any comparative subversion or breakthrough?
Before taking this role I honestly was always inconsistent. I did not know what kind of
position a female role could contribute within the story; I was quite confused. I definitely was doubtful that a female role could be so powerful in the middle of a tough battlefield. In this
kind of war-themed plots, the female role must usually be involved in the love or relationship part of the story. But I was wrong. The character that I played was not merely good for the love and relationship part of the story, but she also contributed a lot in other war and life
components. This is why I feel that this film is so unique and different from other similar warthemed films.
Do you feel like you have anything in common with the role you’re playing? Or do you feel like there is a psychological gap between you and the character that you play?
In the manner of my role’s on-screen and my off-screen circumstances, the gap is actually
really large. The hard part of it is not about acting it out. It’s about my need to understand
why my character is doing the things she is doing, the reasoning behind her every move. I
often thought to myself what kind of person Li is, and why the writer wrote about such a character. That’s why throughout a long thinking process, my acting became clearer. Through
this process I began to comprehend her feelings, her attitude towards everyone, her true personality, what she cares about, her weaknesses, her interests and dislikes; those are the things I think of the most when I am acting.

成功的滋味 The Taste of Success 正处在职业快速上升通道中的李 俨被任命为大连君悦酒店酒店经 理。有着丰富餐饮部门从业经历 的她会有何心得、又有何期许呢？ Betty Li is on a rapid upward ascent, coming from a F & B background and appointed as the Hotel Manager at the Grand Hyatt Dalian. LifeStyle sat down with her to understand more about her work, the Hyatt, and what an F & B background can mean for hoteliers.
What defines “hospitality” for you, and why did you choose to go into this field? How is
the job of hotel manager different from your previous roles?
Basically, I have spent more than twenty
years in F & B in various different positions. At the beginning, for me “hospitality” meant a
comfortable work environment and a stable job. Then, year after year, Hyatt culture drove me to become a qualified hotelier.
The biggest difference between a hotel manager
position and my previous roles is that I am now looking after the whole hotel, not just the F & B side. I need to give more attention to the
operational aspects of the whole hotel, while also taking care of our associates.
What is special about Grand Hyatt Dalian?
餐饮部门的工作经历对你即将要从事的工 作有什么影响呢？ 众所周知，凯悦酒店集团以其精致的 美食享誉全球，而我亦有幸在长达 24 年的 凯悦生涯中与众多经验丰富的餐饮从业者 和厨师长们共事，这是我职业生涯中最宝 贵的财富。这些珍贵的经验，也让我意识到， 了解客人真正的需求是让餐厅成为城中最 佳的必需条件。 在你看来，酒店业是怎样的？你为什么会 选择这个行业呢 ? 酒店经理的工作与你之 前的工作经历有什么差别呢？ 我进入酒店行业已经超过 20 年，最初 只是期待有一个很好的工作环境和一份稳 定的工作。通过不断的深入了解凯悦的文 化和接受专业的培训，逐渐成长成为一位 合格的酒店管理者。 当然，成为酒店经理与我之前在餐饮 方面的工作还是有很大的不同。这使我有 更多的责任，更全面的参与到酒店的日常 营运中，也投入了更多的精力关爱员工。
通要道中山路咫尺之遥，从酒店到大连周 水子国际机场与大连市火车站仅 20 分钟车 程。 酒店拥有 370 间典雅舒适的客房及套 房，因楼体的特别设计，370 间客房均可观 赏壮丽海景。6 间风格迥异的餐厅与酒吧， 提供缤纷的美食选择。总面积达 2,568 平方 米的高端会议与宴会设施，是举办婚宴、 会议及各种聚会的完美之选。同时，酒店 还配备了先进完善的健身中心与舒适私密 的“谧”水疗，让宾客尽享轻松时光。 拥有如此顺畅的职业发展路径，你对未来 有何期许？ 我觉得我已经拥有了凯悦的基因，我 可以在工作时自然流露出凯悦的风格。 Tell us about how your background in F & B influences your work today.
As Hyatt hotels have a very strong Food
and Beverage reputation, I have had many
opportunities to see and work with many
experienced managers and chefs all around world.

I have also worked in various different roles in the
F & B area over the past 24 years. That experience helped me to understand that guests’ needs are the
most important factor when trying to make your restaurant or bar the best in town.

this luxurious modern hotel introduces Grand Hyatt’s hallmark hospitality to one of China’s
fastest growing cities for leisure and business travel.

An integrated part of No.1 Xinghai Bay, a

from Xinghai International Exhibition Centre and
Zhongshan Road, the city’s main thoroughfare. Dalian International Airport and Dalian Railway

瑰丽龙庭 : 舌尖上的历史
The House of Dynasties: History on the tongue 从建筑风格到摆设细节，从食材制作到进餐礼仪，瑰丽酒店的龙庭餐厅， 带来的不仅仅是拥有媲美皇家奢华的飨宴，更是一场文化气息十足的精神浸润。 From architecture to design, from the ingredients to the perfectly modulated manners, the Rosewood Hotel’s House of Dynasties is not only comparable to a royal luxury banquet chamber, it can bring contemporary visitors on a trip through time.

文化与美食的融合，并不仅仅是一个空泛的概念，在北京瑰丽酒店，感受一席盛宴从步入“龙 庭”餐厅的第一刻就已经开始了。以中国几大朝代为主题的房间，无论从装修风格还是陈列细节， 乃至用餐器皿，都各有特色，别具风情。唐的雍容、宋的清丽、元的奔放……美食还未呈上，已经 宛若时光流转，恍惚置身数百年光阴之中。呼应着房间的格调，菜品自然秉承了精益求精的质感。 依时令而取材，顺传统而烹制，迎时代而革新，在充分满足了唇舌享受的同时，营养价值与观赏价 值亦被完美兼顾。 移步窗前，京城美景尽收眼底，摇一摇杯中美酒，一静一动，一古一今，于舌尖上品味中国， 于微醺中梦回历史。 The integration of culture and cuisine is not just a vague concept, but a reality in some of Beijing’s finest
hotels. Entering “House of Dynasties,” I felt the feast ready to begin. The room is themed on some of the most
notable dynastic styles of Chinese history, displayed in décor but also dining utensils and styles. Traces from
Song, T’ang, Q’ing and Ming… entering the restaurant is like traveling backwards in time. Echoing the style
of the room, the cuisine also represents histories of multiple dynasties. Seasonal, local, consistent with ancient
traditions; the finest legacy of the past is brought to diners here. No dusty history museum, the wonderful
flavors on offer will make anyone passionate about the past, as they are nutritious, delicious, and beautiful. Looking out the window at the panoramic views of the capital, lifting a glass of wine; dreams of Chinese history are reflected through the smudged glass, punctuated by the bright lights of a nation on the move.

arm sun, friendly locals, amazing seafood; there have always been
lots of reasons to visit Malaysia, but until recently, luxury was not
one of them. It might be time to reassess that, though; while in years
past, Kuala Lumpur was overshadowed by Singapore as a luxury destination, Starhill Gallery is starting to change that.
Probably the first thing you’ll notice as your taxi drops you off
is the amazing architecture. Constructed using lightweight steel and
state-of-the-art technology, it features sleek, angular stone and glass panels of glimmering liquid-like effect. In fact, Starhill is situated in

the middle of Kuala Lumpur’s downtown, an area increasingly gaining accolades globally for innovative architecture and a sleek urbanism
that can rival Hong Kong or Singapore. If you’re wondering where to
stay- no worries; the J.W. Marriot and the Ritz-Carlton are built into
Starhill itself; you can check in, drop off your bags, and head for the spa without even having to go outside.
Spas are easy to find anywhere, though, and you probably didn’t
come just for the massage. What really draws visitors to Starhill,
particularly from mainland China, are the luxury goods that can be
as much as 30% less expensive than those obtained in the mainland,
due to different taxation systems. Indulge yourself- even after the price of your first-class plane ticket, you’re saving money by being
here in the first place. In addition to the numerous talented Malaysian designers (more about them later), Starhill is really known for luxury
watches and jewelry, whether big brands like Audemars Piguet, Hublot or Breguet or more boutique, couture-style contenders such as Bedat, Carrera y Carrera, or Garrard. It’s often chosen by the horology industry as the site for events, such as the recently held “A Journey
Through Time,” Asia’s premier timepiece and jewelry showcase. 2014 was the 7th year that the event was held, and it shows no sign of losing
steam; for the finest watches in the world, Kuala Lumpur is on a level with Basel.
Imagine yourself ensconced in your hotel room, gazing out the
window at KL’s skyline and inspecting your lovely new watches over some curried crab. Whether it’s exotic Southeast Asian cuisine, the
finest in jewelry and watches, luxuriant spas or outstanding five star hotels, Starhill Gallery is truly an experience destination. The seven
luxurious floors offer quality, privacy and exclusivity in the heart of one of Asia’s most exciting cities- but trust us, it looks better from
the window than street level. Food, fashion, living, beauty and art Starhill Gallery is Kuala Lumpur's ultimate statement of style.

2014 年 11 月 26 日—2015 年 2 月 23 日，由楚卡诺夫家 族基金会发起的展览“后波普：东方遇见西方”在伦敦萨奇 画廊开展，这场全面的展览将首次探讨在 20 世纪的各项艺术 运动中，波普艺术如何用其强大的感染力，影响了世界各地 有着不同、甚至对立意识形态领域里的艺术家们。 展览集结了来自中国（含台湾地区）、前苏联、英国和 美国的 110 位知名艺术家的 250 件作品，堪称迄今为止最大 规模探讨波普艺术形式和持续影响的展览。展览从波普艺术 鼎盛时期在这些不同区域的艺术创作开始梳理，以栖息地、 广告与消费主义、名人与大众传媒、艺术史、宗教和意识形 态以及性别和身体六个主题进行展示。 波普艺术被公认为上世纪最为意义深远的艺术运动之一， 充分运用了来源于大众媒介和日常生活中可辨识的意象来反 映我们所生存世界的本质。本展检视了广为人知的西方波普 艺术和相对而言较少人了解的前苏联“苏刺艺术”，以及中 国的“政治波普”和“批判现实主义”之间的关系。运用幽 默白话的表现语言，自如借用流行文化，波普艺术打开了后 世代艺术家们探索流行视觉意象之门，并通过所鉴所用图像 的公众熟悉度，建立起与普罗大众的联系。前苏联无处不在 的宣传图文堪比西方大规模生产的商品和广告，在中国，它 们又变成了社会主义现实主义的视觉意象。 尽管这些艺术家们有着根本上的文化和意识形态差异， 但其创作的商业广告、宣传海报、名人肖像以及讽刺作品里 的货币和爱国主题都准确反映了 20 世纪 50、60 年代兴起于 英美的波普艺术运动的精神。

East Meets West, the first comprehensive exhibition examining why Pop Art, of all the
twentieth century’s movements has had such a powerful influence over artists from world
regions that had or still have very different and sometimes opposing ideologies.
The exhibition brings together 250 works
by 110 renowned artists from China, the
former Soviet Union, Taiwan, the UK and
USA in the largest survey to date exploring
Pop Art’s enduring legacy. Post Pop: East

produced in these distinct regions since the heyday of Pop, and will present them in relation to each other through the framework of six themes: Habitat;
Advertising and Consumerism; Celebrity and Mass Media; Art History; Religion and Ideology; Sex and the Body.
Widely regarded as the most significant art movement of the last century,
Pop Art exploits identifiable imagery from mass media and everyday life
to reflect on the nature of the world we live in. This exhibition examines
the relationship between western Pop Art and its lesser-known eastern

counterparts including “Sots Art” in the Soviet Union and “Political-Pop” or
“Cynical Realism”, which has flourished in Greater China since the turn of the
twenty-first century. Using humor and a vernacular language, and borrowing freely from popular culture, Pop Art gave subsequent generations of artists
the license to exploit popular visual imagery and to connect with the public through the familiarity of the images being referenced. In the Former Soviet
Union the abundance of imagery comparable to mass produced commodities and advertising in the West was propaganda images and text, and in Greater Keith Haring Elvis Presley 1981

Although from fundamentally different cultures and ideological
backgrounds, the artists in this exhibition play with imagery from commercial advertising, propaganda posters, pictures of the famous as well as monetary and patriotic motifs in wry and provocative works that unmistakably
In the Soviet Union region these works draw attention to state control,
conformity, ceremony, pomp and the façade of unanimity amongst the people; in America and the UK they serve as a critique of commodity fetishism, the cult of celebrity and our mass-produced, status-driven manmade world; and in
Greater China as commentary on the social dislocation created by a new super
power’s fascination with wealth and luxury following a period of extreme austerity.

L
iu Hongli comes from Miao Village, Changxian, Hebei, where he and
his family lived a simple life as peasants, never having received a formal education. Growing up, Salvador Dali’s words echoed in his mind, as he
agreed with the surrealist master; “The only difference between an artist and a madman
is that he has not gone mad yet.” He has assiduously cultivated his dreams throughout
thirty years of living life as a peasant-drawing a vivid line in between art and life, but
in the contrast between the two also captured an artistic sense that other professional artists had dreamt about but failed to bring to life.
The first peasant art painter who held a solo exhibition in Beijing’s 798 Art District,
he is the the one and only Liu Hongli.
On November 30 2013, Sky Moca Gallery held a local-themed exhibition titled;
“Between the Terraced Rice Paddies,” showcasing the artworks of Liu Hongli. Not
only did the notable art critic Jia Fangzhou, singer Dai Yuqiang, and other celebrities
and industry experts attend the exhibition, along with the presence of a great number of experienced collectors, but more than 30 pieces of artwork were exhibited and valued
with high prices. Two of the pieces, showcasing a picturesque theme of owls and cattle, were fiercely fought over by many collectors during the exhibition. These evocative landscapes received attention like few works in 798 have done.
Chinese Peasant Painting reflects a strong regional geography or cultural landscape,
often being perceived as a reflection of nature. In the works displayed, Liu Hongli
showcased his rich artistic imagination with a sense of free-flowing curves and patterned surfaces in every painting, renewing the concept of the Chinese Peasant Art.
His paintings have absorbed the charm of Chinese calligraphy, borrowing its styling
techniques which are combined with the influence of western cubism, modern elements
of surrealism, mixtures of petroglyphs, muralism, Tibetan Thang-ga, lacquer painting,
and other artistic styles. His works, particularly the owl and cattle series, feature varied
emotional colors, revealing a symbolic portrait that jumps out of the canvas from time
to time, inviting us to discover the Chinese countryside with its ancient mysteriousness, which is intimate, yet unfamiliar at the same time. As Jia Fangzhou wrote in his
commentary, “Liu’s unique taste and art feels natural, without any institutional dogma or traditional boundaries. He offers us a paradigm of a completely authentic art with
true colors. It’s a hard thing to achieve even for a professional artist to just draw spontaneously without creating any artificial modification.”
Liu Hongli’s artistic ambition was recorded thoroughly in his 15 meter long “The
War of Earth” painted scroll. This artwork was made in memory of all the victims of
the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake. The scroll landscape, starting from a scene from the preearthquake panic of the small animals was drawn with in a hyperbolic way, vividly
portraying the resilience and struggles of humans in the face of disaster. Reliving the
phases from the earthquake precursor to its post-disaster reconstruction, such symbols
of deconstruction and symbolism could only be seen in Picasso’s skillful application
of tactics hinted on his masterpiece “Guernica.” At the same time, Liu Hongli also
presents the audience with a profound oriental culture reflection on human destiny and
the meaning of life. The long scroll paper with its unique use of as a “timeline,” added a strong epic feel to the work.
Enjoying the artwork of Liu Hongli is like entering a whimsical dreamscape
journey. The rice paddy terraces and beautiful landscapes represent calm and expansive views pouring in from beyond the border of the hustling city one after another with blossoming colors.
A notable scholar and professor of Beijing Normal University, Yu Dan, stated the
greatest charm of Liu’s paintings lies on its “innocent light of life” theme and its
“spontaneously poetic traces of ink” that have innovated the possibilities for modern
paintings within the Chinese tradition, opening their eyes to the many possibilities of human lives. The Vice-Chairman of Beijing Calligraphers Association and a famous calligrapher Tian Boping praised his works even more by comparing them with the realm of Wang Xi’s masterpiece known as the “Orchid Pavilion”.
