這真是個「藝術即生活」的時代。 走入商場,你看見櫥窗裡賣的靚衫、靚 錶、靚手袋、閃令令引人注目,海報上 寫上一句話:Live is Art。去到餐廳,你 看到精緻可愛的 cupcake、咖啡、刀叉 桌椅。餐牌上寫道:The Art of Living。 藝術展銷會門票附送酒店晚餐優惠券, 鼓勵觀眾逛完畫展去食飯,只因為, 「藝術,源於生活」…… 今日,你再講,「藝術即生活」?大家 都一早知道啦。 問題是,當我們說「藝術即生活」,怎 樣「即」法?除了那些貼上藝術標籤的 商品,可以賣多幾倍價錢促進消費外, 藝術與生活,到底是甚麼關係?如果 「藝術即生活」,那為何那麼多活生生 的人說,藝術與他無關?又,如果「藝 術即生活」,那為甚麼,藝術愛好者總 是只識得藝術家的作品,而不知道,他 們是怎樣生活的?

This is the era of “Art is life”. In the windows of a shopping mall, you see fancy clothes, watches, hand bags, all looking sparkling next to slogans saying, “Life is Art”. In a restaurant, you find delicate cupcakes, coffee, cutleries laid out on a table with a menu which reads “The Art of Living”. You also get a complementary hotel-dining coupon attached to an art fair ticket, encouraging the audience to have a meal after visiting the fair, all simply because “Art comes from life”… And now, there is no way to say, “Art is life” without stating the obvious. The thing is: when we say “Art is life”, how does art ‘become’ life? Apart from products which get labelled as art to attract consumption and generate profit, what is the true relationship between art and life?

今次,在「藝術生活日誌」裡面,我們 有楊秀卓、黃振欽、梁以瑚(二胡婆 婆)、黎慧儀、劉學成及創藝同行(阮 美寶、翁志健),舉辦開放創作室,親 身體驗生活為本的創作;吳家俊、鍾惠 恩製作一個度身製作的「藝術組合 櫃」,歡迎大家睇吓又坐吓;最搞笑的 是 , 程 展 緯 、 黃 宇 軒 、C&G藝 術 單 位 (張嘉莉、鄭怡敏),會充當接線生角 色,與大家作藝術對話。 我們也同時找來曾翠薇、何兆基、黃麗 貞、石家豪、劉掬色和林東鵬,透過影 像與文字,紀錄他們生活點滴。藝術, 我們談得不多,聊的卻是上班的道路、 收藏的舊物、買玩具的時間、逛街市的 喜悅……馮美華亦會在現場,與他們一 起講故仔。 這些,才是真正的「藝術即生活」吧!

文/藝術生活日誌編輯室

If “Art is life”, how come in the eyes of many, art has nothing to do with them? Also, if “Art is life”, how come while art-lovers know how to appreciate an artwork, but have little knowledge about the lives of artists? On the occasion of Live Art Daily, YEUNG Sau-churk Ricky, WONG Chun-yam Leo, Evelyna LIANG, LAI Wai-yi Monti, LAU Hok-shing Hanison, and artwalker (Meipo YUEN, YUNG Chi-kin) will teach “Hobby Classes” for the audience to experience their lively creation, while NG Ka-chun and CHUNG Wai-ian will present a specially designed Living Art Cabinet, welcoming the audience to take a look and have a rest. Also, amusingly CHING Chin-wai Luke, WONG Yu-hin Sampson and C&G Artpartment (Clara CHEUNG and CHENG Yee-man Gum) will receive phone-calls from the public and converse about art.

藝術生活 Live in Art 創作生活習慣 When art becomes habits

Meanwhile, we will also revisit the work of TSANG Chui-mei, HO Siu-kee, Fiona WONG, Wilson SHIEH, Gukzik LAU and LAM Tung-pang by documenting their lives through moving images and text. When you watch TV, read newspapers and join artists’ sharing at Live Art Daily, you will find that we haven’t covered much about art for art’s sake; some talked about their paths to go to work, others shared how they spent time collecting old objects and toys, or how much they enjoyed shopping at wet markets…May FUNG will also be there to host the sharing. And all these above, are what we call “Art is life”!

As an art practitioner, Gukzik realizes her thoughts about and pursuit of beauty through striving to love herself and love the world. This is different from how society defined art in the past.
