关于作品

Please scroll down for English

一群衣着体面、来自各个年龄层的人群排成一条长队在地上休息。我们看到画面里大约有二十个人，他们在相互倚靠着，看上去舒适和放松。他们的穿着看上去比较现代——混合了前卫的城市冬装和一些传统的服饰，如萨米帽和挪威的羊毛套头衫。骑行夹克和不错的鞋履也是服装的一部分。这些人都朝向一个方向——头向左，脚向右。人群中，只有一个人在看着我们——一个十几岁的女孩。

我们同时会看到画面上还有另一位年轻女性——塔尔，34岁。她正在从左向右移动，她时而压在人群上，时而部分陷入或绕过人群。她的衣着并不讲究，只穿了T恤、裤子和袜子，并没有穿鞋。影片开始时，她已经位于画面的最左侧，面向与其他所有人相反的方向，并向最远端移动——在画面的最右侧出框。其他人则继续呆在原地。

（整个画面长16米、高64厘米，被投影在屏幕上，两个巨大的扬声器立于地上。这是一个复杂精密的装置，由两台投影仪将图像细致叠加，呈现出一种无缝的、极宽幅的影像效果。因为作品是放置在地板上，所以画面中的人们像是躺在画廊空间的地上。）

策展人："塔尔面对相反方向，从左向右穿越地平线，时而爬在人堆上，时而从中穿行，直到最右端，然后离开画面。她显得很放松，缓缓而行，本能而又坚定，交错于留在原地的人们。当紫色T恤的女子落在身上，或钻行或攀爬，似乎都没有打扰到他们；相反，尽管显得在无意识状态中，他们有直觉的怜悯，合作并拥纳了她的到来。换言之，好像这位女子没有打断大家的梦境，她成为了梦境的一部分。他们究竟梦见了什么，无人知晓，只有那首电子吉他的乐曲填满了空间——抽象、实验、即兴而发；时而神圣，时而专断，时而优雅不食人间烟火，时而混乱喧闹，挑战自身的临界。

事实上，配乐的作曲斯田韦斯特胡斯（Stian Westerhus）在创作之前只知道表演的长度，对其内容一无所知。反过来，直到开演之前，演员们对配乐的内容也毫不知情。影片拍摄一镜到底，没有事先排演。同样，做梦从来是不用排演的，我们重播记忆和编造的梦境。如此一来，音乐便不再是表演的阐释，而是发梦者共享的幻象。这一幻象一方面是隐匿不见的，另一方面又恰恰是可以聆听的。"

About the Work

People - well dressed – of all ages – are resting on the ground in a long line. We see about twenty. They rest partly on each other, looking comfortable and relaxed. Their clothes feel contemporary – a mix of urban cool winter clothing and some traditional clothing; like a Sami hat and Norwegian woolen jumpers. A bicycle jacket and good footwear are also part of the clothing. They are all lying in one direction – heads towards the left and feet pointing to the right. One person only, is looking at us – a teenage girl.

Another young woman, Tale, now 34, is moving from left to right, over and partly under and around the people. She is not so well dressed, wearing a T-shirt and trousers only, socks but no shoes. The film begins with her in the picture already in the very left side, facing the other way than all the other people, and moves to the very far edge – and out of the picture frame on the very right hand side. The others stay where they are on the ground.

(This tableau is a 16m long and 74cm high video projection onto a screen with large speakers resting on the floor. This is a sophisticated installation, as it takes 2 projectors carefully overlapping their images to give the impression of a seamless, extremely wide-format film. The image begins from the floor, so the people appear to be lying on the floor in the gallery space.)

Curator："Tale heads towards the opposite direction and then starts moving from left to right across the horizon, sometimes over and sometimes partly under and around the people, until she gets to the very far right edge – and out of the picture frame. While she is relaxed, and moves slowly, intuitively but tenaciously, the others stay still where they are on the ground. They do not seem to be disturbed when that violet T-shirt lands on, or comes through or under, their bodies; instead, they appear compassionate, cooperative and instinctive, welcoming and accepting her, although apparently unconsciously. In other words, the woman did not interrupt their dreams but perhaps was part of their dreams. Nothing has been told about what they dreamt, apart from a composition of sound based on an electric guitar filling the space – abstract, experimental and improvisational; sometimes sacred and authoritative; sometimes graceful, like sound from a heavenly world; and sometimes disruptive, or even obstreperous, challenging its own limits.

The sound composer of the piece, Stian Westerhus, in fact, was only informed of the length of the performance but not the content. In return, the sound remained unknown to the performers until the performance took place, the film being shot in one take, with no rehearsal. Similarly, we do not rehearse our dreams; we replay them, with the remembered and the fabricated. Thus, in this case, the music was not designed to illustrate the performance, but became the shared vision of the dreamers. That vision is concealed and remains unseen on the one hand; on the other, it must be precisely what can be heard. "

A K Dolven (b. 1953, Oslo, Norway) currently lives and works in Oslo and Lofoten, Norway. Her work alternates between the monumental and the minimal, the universal and the intimate, resonating with concepts and structures beyond the confines of any particular piece. Interpersonal relations and interactions are central to her practice, and many of her performance-based works involve collaborations with other people. Dolven has exhibited extensively internationally at a wide range of institutions and galleries, and her work is included in over thirty international private and public collections, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark, the Hoffmann Collection and Sammlung Goetz in Germany.
