项目介绍
       当我们站在某一点观看一条河的时候,思想上很容易开始延伸,作为生命的一个类比,河流能帮助我们认识到生命长河在时间上延续的真实性。这样,我们现有的生命便具有了回溯历史的可能性和伸向未来的潜在性。在任何一个现在的时间点上,我们都享受着一个时间上延展开的生命断面。我们与前人和子孙享有一个共同的生命,在意动力的驱使下整体流动着,从过去世代继承下来的生存意志通过我们又流向未来。

       河流作为生命的根源,正如“绵绵若存”的解释一样,在创造繁衍的运动中不勤不惰,稳定持久并延绵不绝。岷江作为蜀地的一条重要河流,自松潘县岷山源起,自北向南,于宜宾注入长江。历史曾被认为是长江正源,流域包括8个市、地、州的36个县,多个少数民族居住,人文、地理、历史、自然环境丰富多样。这使得这次艺术家驻留创作项目具有了一个整体的背景,我们将以成都的驻地为中心,向北溯源向南寻尽,以整个岷江流域生发的一切作为艺术家驻留创作的切入点。

       此驻留创作项目由明天文化和艺琅国际共同出品 ,青年策展人王澈策划,驻地定为成都蓝顶艺术区一期14栋,每期选定两位艺术家考察驻留创作一个月。

艺术家作品:



段英梅   《很久很久以前......》  物件&影像互动式的行为作品  3分15秒视频截图  2016

行走的最后两天我决定停留在一个小村子里,我对这个村子里的人又深入了解了许多。路上我们做了一个15分钟不讲话的行走的行为。我突然觉得自己又回到了平日的安静状态一样。我们每个人只用眼睛和听觉来感觉周围的环境,也正因此我发现了路上不起眼的壁画。后来和黄元攀发展了“物件&影像互动式的行为作品”—《很久很久以前……》。视频和壁画卡片是整体的,大家可以利用这些卡牌来编造自己想要的故事。 




段英梅  《童年》  物件&影像互动式的行为作品   3分42秒视频截图  2016


当我看到小孩子玩“扔石头”,在水里摸鱼,在操场上打篮球,还有看见他们脏兮兮的衣服时,这些都让我们想到了自己的童年.回来后,我和黄元攀一起发展了另一件“物件&影像互动式的行为作品”—《童年》。视频和跳绳、球等是一个整体,大家可以和这些小时候玩过的东西进行互动。




段英梅  《猪的烦恼》  物件&影像互动式的行为作品   5分21秒视频截图  2016
在山上的一个小村里停留时,那里的人们正在过彝族人的新年,所以我们又更多地了解到彝族人的传统习俗,比如过年时每家每户都杀猪,听到猪的嘶叫声,他们觉得会给他们来年带来最好的运气。所有的这些见闻,让我创作出了“物件&影像互动式的行为作品”—《猪的烦恼》。影像是和腊肉放在一起的,大家在吃腊肉的同时,可以听到猪在述说它们的烦恼。

艺术家信息


·段英梅·

■  1969
  生于中国黑龙江省大庆市
■  1989
  毕业于中国东北石油学院采油工程专业
■  1991
  开始了她的艺术创作生涯,她先后在中央美术学院和中央工艺美术学院进修油画、壁画、设计和雕塑专业
■  1991 - 1998
  她作为自由艺术家生活在北京
■  1998至今
  现工作、生活于德国布伦瑞克

段英梅代表着中国前卫艺术的一部分。她曾在传奇的艺术区——“北京东村”生活和创作过多年,并在1995年参与了被认为中国现代艺术的经典之一,“东村”艺术家集体行为艺术作品《为无名山增高一米》的创作和表演。可以说,1993年至1995年在“北京东村”的生活,使她对行为艺术产生了极大的好奇心及浓厚的兴趣,并对其后来的艺术生涯有很大的影响。其艺术创作的转折点,是2000年她在德国布伦瑞克造型艺术学院学习期间,师从玛丽娜•阿布拉莫维奇学习行为艺术,在她的影响下,段英梅成为了一名纯粹的行为艺术家。求学期间她还曾跟随电影人、行为艺术家克里斯托夫•施林根基夫学习和工作, 并参与他导演的多部大型行为装置艺术作品的创作和表演。段英梅是一个充满好奇心的观察家,她对生活的方方面面都有着浓厚的兴趣,喜欢提出各种各样的问题。在过去的15年里,她将全部精力和创造力专注于行为艺术的创作和研究。段英梅的许多行为艺术作品都是在探索人类的本能,例如恐惧和欲望。各种不同类型的主题都激发着她的灵感并反映在她的作品里,例如对社会、传统观念和人类行为提出质疑。在她的作品中,她经常交叉使用各种艺术媒介,常常把声音、影像以及装置糅合在作品中。她不仅尝试实验性的即兴行为艺术,同时也会去全情投入、不忽视任何一个细节地编排她的艺术作品。
2014年,一部有关她作品的书以英、德、汉三种语言出版,由“北京·现场”国际行为艺术节策展人乔纳斯•斯坦普为其作序。书中作品的选择考虑到段英梅在行为艺术实践中的四个主要关注点,她为这四个点提出了独立的术语,即“日常行为艺术(DLAP)”、“平等合作(ECP)”、“个人作品”及“行为装置”。



Duan Yingmei

■  1969
  Born in Daqing, Heilongjiang Province of China
■ 1989 
  She graduated from the Northeast Petroleum University in China
■  1991 
  She began her artistic development. She engaged in advanced studies - oil & mural painting, design and sculpture at the Central Academy of Fine Arts and Central Academy of Art and Design in China
■  1991 - 1998
  She worked in Beijing as a freelance artist  
■  Since 1998 she has been living in Braunschweig, Germany

Yingmei Duan is part of the Chinese avant-garde, working creatively for many years living in the legendary art district of Beijing’s East Village. In 1995 she participated in the performance “To Add One Meter to an Anonymous Mountain” which is considered to be one of the classics of Chinese contemporary art. Being based in the East Village between 1993-1995 prompted her curiosity, which led to her interest in performance art and has had a great impact on her later art career. The final turning point came when she began to study in Germany at The Braunschweig University of Art (HBK) in 2000, where she got to meet the performance artist Marina Abramović. Since that time Yingmei Duan has dedicated herself to performance art as her artistic expression. There, she also studied and worked with the filmmaker and action artist Christoph Schlingensief, participating in several of his large-scale video performance installations.YingmeiDuan is a curious observer who asks questions of all facets of life in order to continuously learn and develop. For the past fourteen years she has concentrated her energy and creativity on making performance art and researching the medium. Much of Yingmei’s performance art explores human instincts such as fear and desire. Various different themes inspire Yingmei and are reflected in her work including examining society and questioning its conventions and human behavior. Within her performances she crosses mediums and often incorporates sound, video and installation. She spontaneously develops performances as situational experiments and on the other hand she can also plan her performances with intense attention being paid to the last detail.
In 2014 a book on her work was published in English, German and Mandarin. A publication for which Beijing Live’s curator, Jonas Stampe, wrote the preface. The selection of works in book takes into account the four main focus points of her practice for which Yingmei Duan has invented an independent terminology. She describes these priorities as: “Daily Live Art Performance” (DLAP), “Equal Collaborative Performance” (ECP), “Solo Performance” and “Performance Installation”.

·XY Pattern

The sound-art team XY Pattern was co-established by artist Xu Xiaoguo and experimental musician Li Yanzeng in 2015, which mainly focuses on sound,video, installation and other forms of art.
The XY Pattern attempts to initiate a crossover way of work, and express their artistic viewpoint by means of combining dual layers of perception and experience. The idea is to apply electronic acoustic instrument, video and installation in a combined way so as to practice art in a sense of field theory.
