策展人、艺术史学者芭芭拉·伦敦，也是《录像/艺术：第一个五十年》（讲座同名）一书的作者，将与OCAT上海馆当前展览“重新聚焦媒介：东亚录像艺术的兴起”的策展人金曼进行对谈。

作为对展览“重新聚焦媒介：东亚录像艺术的兴起”的回应，芭芭拉·伦敦将回顾她早期的研究旅途以及与为日本、韩国和中国的录像艺术这一新兴领域做出贡献的艺术家之间的互动和介入。芭芭拉·伦敦有着与生俱来的好奇心和求知热情，从1970年代初她与白南准（Nam June Paik）以及居住在纽约的日本艺术家的接触开始，她还将分享在纽约现代艺术博物馆（MoMA）担任策展人期间有趣的亲身经历。与比尔·维奥拉（Bill Viola）交谈后，受到其在日本的经历启发，芭芭拉·伦敦开始了第一次日本研究之旅，并促成了MoMA的展览和收藏，比如巡展“从东京到福井和京都的录像”。1990年代中期，芭芭拉·伦敦来到中国进行研究之旅，寻找媒体艺术家、录像艺术家。研究工作形成了实验性的实时博客“Stir Fry”，这个具有先见性的项目启动了MoMA的测试版在线项目，并且至今仍可访问。她将回顾在中国的旅程，以及那些与艺术家们会面、探索媒体艺术和录像艺术的创意网络的经历。

芭芭拉·伦敦的个人经历不仅使她作为录像艺术策展人和研究者的职业生涯焕发生机，而且见证了五十多年来录像艺术这一新媒介在全球范围内的兴起。

Barbara London, curator, art historian, and author of Video Art, the First Fifty Years (Phaidon 2020) joins in conversation with Kim Machan, curator of Refocusing on the medium: the rise of East Asia Video Art.

In response to the exhibition, Refocusing on the medium: the rise of East Asia Video Art, Barbara London will reflect on her early research tours and engagement with the artists contributing to the emerging field of video art, in and from Japan, Korea and China. Beginning with her early encounters with Nam June Paik and Japanese artists living in New York in the early 1970s, London will share a fascinating history she experienced firsthand in her official role as curator at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and through her innate curiosity and passion to know more. Her first Japanese research trip, inspired by conversations with Bill Viola about his experiences in Japan, led to exhibitions and acquisitions for MoMA including the touring exhibition Video from Tokyo to Fukui and Kyoto. Research in China in the mid 1990s to seek our media and video artists resulted in an experimental live blog Stir Fry, a prescient project that initiated beta online projects for MoMA and is still accessible today. London reflects on her travels in China, meetings with artists, and experiences of the creative networks exploring media and video art.

Barbara London’s personal anecdotes bring to life not only her professional career as a curator and researcher in video art, but also a personal journey spanning more than fifty years witnessing the rise of the new medium of video art across the globe.
