“关于游荡者”

林桂明

1940年，瓦尔特·本雅明用死亡把自己的身份永恒定格在了“游荡者”。“游荡者”处于阈限阶段，它是可贵的，它可以是诸多明确肯定的身份的前期身份，总怀着赤子之心，无比热忱。在我看来或许艺术家会永远处于游荡者的状态，对于当下艺术而言，没有方位坐标，意味着无限的可能性。“经典”不再被需求，却要去探寻“经典”的替代品，这就是当下时代赋予艺术家的任务，因此艺术家处于游荡者的状态，答案在个体的努力中不断出现，却又不断被否决，无限循环。或许我们终将脱离开游荡者这个阈限阶段，而本次的展览计划的核心就是从不同方面探讨其存在的阶段里的诸多可能。

“白热”策划人语

黄喆君

自美术馆失去特权，其所设立的画框被打破，艺术作品成为了自身的元语言场所，通过与观者的交流让其自身在场，它既是镜子又是镜像。艺术家们同其作品成为这一个个单子叙述开始了游荡生涯，在其过程中以自己的方式追寻本源，探索文脉，揣着怀疑使用“概念”，重识“光晕”，从根茎发出也立于个体坐标。

这次展览的艺术家主要出生于90年代左右，成长于国家刚刚开始富裕起来时的家庭中，网络也于此时流行起来，于是这一代成为的自由开放的代言，也被网络称为“脑残族”的群体可能是真如定义所指，但也正由这矛盾的时代让我们成长空间被越拉越大。

这个，新年轻艺术家群展，它是我们游荡过程的物化，让在场开始的起点。

When the museum lost its privileged position the frame was broken. The individual art work became its own meta- language site with its existence tied to a direct communication with the viewer. It was both a mirror and a mirror image. Artists, like their works operating with this kind of meta narrative, began a new kind of wandering career. In this process we have had to find our own ways to explore an origin and cultural context. In both using and interrogating fixed definitions we have sought out new concepts for a rediscovery of the “halo” in today’s society. As with the rhizome we all grow from one but are located by individual coordinates.

Most of the artists in WHITE HEAT were born in the 90s with their families sharing in a newly prospering China. The internet also started its march towards domination of popular and business culture in this period, making our generation famous for its new freedoms and open ways. Ironically there are those online who criticize us as a “brain-dead clan” because of our new behaviors. But in the pull of these contradictions the space of operations actually grows.

This exhibition by a new group of young artists represents a materialization of our wandering in this new space, and a starting point for fresh discoveries.
