高光-箭厂收藏展

2010年12月21日——2011年2月17日

参展艺术家:
李景湖 何颖宜 张怡 王功新 王卫 颜磊 张培力 尤安·马唐纳 丹·皮乔沃维奇 刘窗

着眼于未来一代观众对于当代艺术的兴趣与理解,箭厂空间志存高远,点滴积累—自2008年创办以来已拥有了十数件藏品,这些藏品所代表的艺术家来自世界各地。箭厂空间的创办者们相信-伟大的城市需要伟大的艺术收藏来教育和激励它的公众,在此建立的不仅是一个展示艺术的空间,也将拥有一个代表众多不同文化最高成就的公共收藏。此次展出的藏品不能说是最全面的,但它们大体反映了箭厂空间历史上的各个重大时刻。

《高光》涉及了箭厂空间藏品中的重要物品和录像,它们完全可以成为展现箭厂藏品深度及独特性的重要里程碑。从张怡在北京拍摄和制作的录像《可能接触》(2008年),到李景湖用整卷卫生纸和袋装洗衣粉制作的《雪人》(2010年),《高光》重述了箭厂空间反映良好又充满插曲的两年半历史中的一些关键时刻。由于箭厂空间的大部分项目都带有特定现场的性质,在这里展示和呈现的物品都是不完整的,或者部分经过重新改造过的。 只有一件作品,即王卫的《不会给你们添麻烦的》(2009年),是以原本完整的形式展出。虽然藏品所讲述的故事范围广大,但这并非艺术史(如果有的话)的权威观点,而是箭厂空间的巨大遗产所带来的启迪,有助于清楚地指出引向未来的道路。

Arrow Factory: Collection Highlights

2010.12.21 - 2011.02.17

Participating Artists:
Patty Chang, Rania Ho, Li Jinghu, Liu Chuang, Euan MacDonald, Dan Perjovschi, Wang Gongxin, Wang Wei, Yan Lei, Zhang Peili

The Arrow Factory Collection is currently held in private trust for the benefit of future generations of visitors. From modest beginnings, it has grown with increased ambition over the years—over ten works have entered the collection since our founding in 2008, with artists represented from all corners of the globe. The founders of Arrow Factory believe that every great city needs a great art collection to educate and inspire its population. They sought to build not only a space to show art, but also a public collection that could grow over time and represent the highest achievements of many different cultures. The collection cannot claim to be comprehensive, though it broadly represents key moments in the history of the Arrow Factory.

Highlights is drawn from what is currently in-situ and identifies major objects or videos excavated from Arrow Factory’s inventory as key milestones celebrating the collection’s depth and distinctiveness. From Patty Chang’s video “Touch Would” (2008) shot and produced on location in Beijing, to the rolls of toilet paper and packets of washing powder from Li Jinghu’s “Snowman”(2010), Highlights recounts key moments in Arrow Factory’s tremendous and episodic two and a half year history. Since most projects at Arrow Factory are site-specific in nature, the objects brought forth and presented here are exceedingly fragmentary and/or partially reconstituted and in some occasions point to the seamlessness between architectural space and art object. Only one work - "I Won’t Make Any Trouble for You" (2009) by Wang Wei is exhibited in its original whole form. Though the stories the collection tells are wide-ranging, this is not a definitive view of art history (if there is such a thing) but rather an illumination of Arrow Factory’s vast legacy that helps to shed light on the way towards the future.
