展览介绍


香格纳北京将于2023年5月20日荣幸呈现艺术家林奥劼的个展《命硬》。继艺术家在北京的两次个展《有空调的热带能出哲学家》(2019)和《人造人》(2021)之后,本次展览作为其系列创作的第三章回,将带来林奥劼最新的影像、绘画和文本作品。

林奥劼的作品往往充满轻松诙谐的流行文化元素,以举重若轻的方式揭露艺术家的生存困境以及艺术行业内部的灰色地带。近年来,他将兴趣点拓宽至社会现实及人工智能,并在此次展览中将重心落于“经济”领域,通过其一贯自嘲式的介入手段,探讨艺术生产和商业发展之间千丝万缕的暧昧关系,以及信息时代洪流中交织演变的人性欲望。

ShanghART Beijing is delighted to present a solo exhibition by Lin Aojie, “Ponzi Scheme”, opening on 20 May 2023. Following the artist’s two solo shows in Beijing, “Those Who Like Playing Tricks Usually Don’t Live a Good Life” (2019) and “How Do Artists Make a Living” (2021), this exhibition marks the third chapter of Lin’s artistic practice by bringing together his latest video, painting and text works.

Featuring casual and witty pop culture references, Lin Aojie’s work is known for exposing the artists’ plight and grey areas within the art industry in a seemingly light-hearted manner. In recent years, Lin has broadened his interests to include social reality and artificial intelligence. Drawing attention to the “economic” realm for this exhibition, he attempts to examine the inextricable, ambiguous relationship between artistic production and commercial development, as well as the intertwined yet evolving human desires in the information age through his usual self-deprecating interventions.

作为一位观念先行的艺术家,林奥劼热衷在展览中设置各种巧妙的小机关,一如其中英文不能互译的展览标题,以真诚的语气讲述资本市场光鲜表面之下的“真相”;当消费主义以及商业操作成为无法避免的全球语境,他顺势借力“艺术产业化”的未来模式,思索为普罗大众创造更多接触当代艺术的可能性。

如何对主观与客观性、私人与公共性展开多重视角的转换,由此消除艺术本身与日常生活的间隙,也是艺术家近年的主要思考方向。在他看来,真正的对抗并非只有站在对立面大声的呼喊,而主动走入固化的框架系统之中,通过微小的行动参与,或许更能引发集体意识的觉醒。

As a conceptually oriented artist, Lin Aojie is keen to set all kinds of ingenious traps in the exhibition—the title of which is not translatable from Chinese to English, for example—telling the “truth” beneath the glamorous capital market in a sincere tone; when consumerism and commercial operations have become an unavoidable global context, he takes advantage of the “industrialisation of art” as a future trend to consider the possibilities of creating more access to contemporary art for the general public.

How to shift multiple perspectives between subjectivity and objectivity, privacy and publicity, thus bridging the gap between art itself and the politics of life, has also been the subject matter of Lin’s ongoing inquiry. In his view, true confrontation is not only a matter of standing in opposition and shouting loudly, but also of taking the initiative to walk into the solidified framework system. Through small actions of participation, it might be more likely to trigger an awakening of collective consciousness.
