HK Sound Station is an exhibition of sound works that surveys the relationship between visual artists and sound in Hong Kong. The project is connected to the development and introduction of sound in association with visual arts. The exhibition is constructed around two singular moments in the History of Art — the avant-garde in the early decades of the 20th century and the development of Conceptual Art in the late 60s and 70s. The former is represented by Dada artist Kurt Schwitters, whereas the latter is spoken for by Vito Acconci’s work. Works by John Levack Drever, Phoebe Hui, Steve Hui, Keith Lam, Leung Chi Wo, Anson Mak, Cedric Maridet, Kingsley Ng and Edwin Lo are also included in the show. The exhibition also draws on the relation and collision between high and low technologies, and the ideas of the modern in contemporary art. Several strategies have been developed to address these issues, specifically through the deliberate installation of low-tech display in the exhibition. The choice of using CD player, an obsolete technology that was iconic in the 80s and 90s but totally archaic now, contrasts with the technology that artists use today to construct their sound works. The inclusion of CD players, one per artist, aims to highlight the sculptural possibilities of sound. Each work is displayed through a modern plinth made of Chinese fibre, on top of which a CD player sits with two headphones. A total of eleven such units, one per artist, originate an unrestricted itinerary for the audience through the space, into which the enjoyment and contemplation of the work of art is also brought. Events that come with the exhibition include a Panel Discussion with the Artists and two Gallery Talks held by Para/Site Art Space, as well as a three-class workshop presented by independent organization soundpocket.
「聲音‧香港‧站」是一個探討香港視覺藝術家跟聲音之間的關係，並尋找聲音跟視 覺藝術的關聯及其發展的展覽。本展覽的概念建基於藝術史上兩個重要時刻 ── 二 十世紀初的前衛派及六十至七十年代的概念藝術；分別由達達主義藝術家 Kurt Schwitters 及當代藝術家 Vito Acconci 所代表。John Levack Drever、 許方華、許敖山、林欣傑、梁志和、羅潤庭、麥海珊、Cedric Maridet 和伍韶勁 亦參與是次展覽。 「 聲音‧香港‧站」以高、低科技之間的衝突及當代藝術的現代概念作構想。為展 現這些構思，策展人使用了多項策略，當中麭括以過時的科技來陳列作品。十一件 聲音作品將以八十至九十年代具代表性但時至今日已式微的雷射唱片機播放，跟今 天聲音藝術家創作時所運用的先進技術形成強烈的對比。作品由獨立的雷射唱片 機來播放，強調把聲音看待成雕塑的可能性。每件作品均會放置在個別的基座上， 為觀眾創造了不受限制的遊覽路徑，從而增添欣賞及思考作品的樂趣。 展覽中的活動還麭括由 Para/Site 藝術空間舉辦的講座和藝術家座談會，以及由 獨立組織 soundpocket 舉辦共三課的工作坊。
