  张怡《可能接触》
  2008年7月29日-9月29日

  箭厂空间
  箭厂胡同38号(国子监街内)
  北京 100007 中国
  38 Jianchang Hutong
  (off Guozijian Jie)
  Beijing, 100007 China

  箭厂空间有幸展出纽约艺术家张怡新作《可能接触》。

  《可能接触》是一个以翻译、无译、跨文化传译、诠释和表演概念为核心的多层次录像艺术作品。它以两个具体事件为起点,其一是文化评论家瓦尔特·本雅明(Walter Benjamin)1928年与美国亚裔电影明星黄柳霜(Anna May Wong)在柏林相遇之后所写的有关这位女星的文章;其二是选自黄柳霜早期默片《爱比刀更厉》(Song)中的飞刀片断。这些事件经过当代语境下的重新想象和重新解读,成为张怡用来探索公共/私密空间概念、舞台表演以及语言灾难的一只镜头。《可能接触》在北京拍摄,由箭厂空间共同制作,是一部双频录像作品,台词和动作围绕外围不断游走,仿佛指涉了翻译难以捉摸的目标以及为达致意义的"核心"而付出的无尽努力。《可能接触》在箭厂空间的橱窗式展厅中放映,更加深了这种不确定性,类似候诊室或医生办公室的桌椅摆在玻璃背后,暗示了一位内在的观看者。

  张怡,1972年出生于美国加利福尼亚,在圣迭戈加州大学获得美术学士学位,目前定居于纽约。2008年成为Hugo Boss Prize候选人,其作品《漂流物》(2007年)入选MOMA举办的新导演系列作品。作品曾在国际上多次举办个展和群展。

  关于箭厂空间

  "箭厂空间"是一个由独立策展人和艺术家组织策划的艺术橱窗项目。空间位于北京市中心的胡同里,原本是个小商铺,经过改造后拥有10平方米的展出面积。" 箭厂空间"首先希望通过橱窗这种特殊的展示方式,为艺术家的创作方法提供一种新的可能,空间内定期更新的艺术作品将会在这里每天面对不同的社会群体和文化情境。

  其次项目自身也试图探讨艺术与日常生活之间的美学关系,尝试艺术创作与公共空间的有机对话,促进当代艺术的试验,交流与研究。"箭厂空间"将会积极地邀请国内和国外的艺术家提供现场装置和项目。

  Patty Chang, Touch Would
  Late July – Late September 2008

  The Arrow Factory is pleased to present Touch Would, a new work by New York based artist Patty Chang.

  Touch Would is a multilayered video project that centers on the concept of translation—mistranslation, cultural translation, interpretation and performance. It takes as its departure point two concrete events, the first being a text written by cultural critic Walter Benjamin about the Asian American film starlet Anna May Wong after their meeting in Berlin in 1928; and the second a knifethrowing sequence from Song, one of Wong's early silent films. Reimagined and reinterpreted in a contemporary context, these events form a lens through which Chang explores notions of public/private space, staged performance, and linguistic mishap. Shot in Beijing and co-produced by the Arrow Factory, Touch Would is a two-channel video work with words and actions that move around a periphery, as if to reference the elusive goals of translation and endless efforts to reach the 'center' of meaning. The presentation of Touch Would in Arrow Factory's storefront furthers this ambiguity, with seats and tables that resemble a waiting room or doctor's office positioned behind glass to imply an internal viewer.

  Patty Chang (b. 1972) was born in California and received her BFA from the University of California, San Diego. She currently resides in New York. Chang is a 2008 finalist for the Hugo Boss Prize, and was recently featured in the MOMA New Directors series for her work Flotsam Jetsam (2007). Her work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions internationally.

  ABOUT ARROW FACTORY:

  Arrow Factory is an independently run alternative storefront space that seeks to advance artistic collaboration, exploration and experimentation across different cultural contexts and viewing publics. Located in a small hutong in Beijing's city center, Arrow Factory reclaims existing commercial space to present artworks that stimulate dialogue between art and contemporary urban space. The modestly sized space (approx 10 square meters or 100 square feet) is intended to create new avenues for artistic production in China and further aesthetic relationships between contemporary art and everyday life. Arrow Factory exhibitions are available for view in its storefront location 7 days a week.
