马凌画廊荣幸在本届UNSCHEDULED呈献法国艺术家艾域克·柏达的个人项目。柏达1972年生于法国巴黎，在新一代法国艺术家中备受瞩目。他擅长挪用、改造、转换现成物，把日常生活中人们习以为常、视而不见的物件从其功能性中抽离出来。它们被孤立、被拆解、被堆积或被重组，物件本身的概念被适度消解，在展览的语境下产生新的语言指涉和审美意义。柏达认为，被用过的物件是最好的艺术材料，因为它们避免了艺术中对材料的传统诠释，从而更好的呈现超越物质的精神层面。柏达永远处在对“物件”的搜索模式，从布鲁塞尔到迈阿密，再到上海的旧货市场，在世界各地寻觅可以被转化成艺术的现成物。日久天长落下的灰尘、使用过程中的破损、拥有它的人曾留下的印记，这些无意识的痕迹正是柏达对现成物着迷的原因。

本次展会中将会带来柏达创作于2021年的两件新作。其中，以冠状病毒的英文缩写为题的作品《COVID》中，艺术家将透明的一次性医用防护面罩反复叠加，形成一件拥有完美弧度和金属光泽的悬空装置。紧密连接的面罩变成一个重达20公斤的庞然大物，人们对其作为医疗用品的认识发生改变。透过出其不意的处理，柏达呼唤观者“再次”去观看不同物料的延展性及可能性。另一件出自“OTS系列”的作品中，四片拆解后的散热器内部叶片组合在一起，柔软的铝制翅片经挤压形成波纹效果。被压平的表面反射光源，让黯淡的高密度网格中显现一片高光。柏达受达达主义和法国新现实主义的影响，对消费社会和工业文明里的各种产物和现象加以利用。他继承及拓展杜尚的现成物概念，发展出一种不同的路径：他既没有利用现成物去挑衅传统美学，也没有彻底接纳现成品去发掘当中的美学，他的作品试图通过重新组合现成物以制造新的情境，提出对人们渐渐固化的思维定式的反思。
同时，柏达也会将艺术的题目——无论是展览的还是作品的——变成机智的比喻或明确的信息。作品《Reboot 003》（2018）中，艺术家把一只穿旧的橡胶靴子完全展平后装裱在铝板上。靴子上的商标、靴子曾经的样子还隐约可见。而题目“Reboot”带着柏达的冷幽默：这就是一只“重新”来过的靴子而已。这是他对艺术的独到见解：在大多数时候，不需要造新的“作品”。他强调他作为一个艺术家的日常无非是寻找物件、再将物件转化而已。

关于UNSCHEDULED
随着博览会和展览在新冠疫情的空前挑战中逐渐复办，香港画廊协会（HKAGA）很高兴宣布UNSCHEDULED的回归，以展示香港不断发展的艺术现场的力量和这个城市作为亚洲国际艺术中心的独特地位。今年的第二届展会将在位于中环核心地段的前Topshop旗舰店中举办。
UNSCHEDULED的形式有别于传统艺博会，亦与博物馆展览不尽相同，它最初是为了应对COVID-19疫情而建立的销售和交流的平台。第二届展会将由15家香港画廊协会成员画廊带来一众本地或国际艺术家的个展。

Edouard Malingue Gallery is pleased to present a booth featuring French artist Eric Baudart at UNSCHEDULED 2021. Baudart (b. 1972, Paris, France) is highly visible among the new generation of French artists. His works or situations proposed are not mere found objects but rather reconfigured and repurposed, composed and re-choreographed materials that have been carefully assembled or moulded to mount a delicate ballet of shapes, colour and form. For Baudart, used objects are the best materials for art as they avoid the conventional interpretation of materials, thus better presenting a spiritual dimension beyond the material itself. In the never-ending search for “objects“, Baudart has travelled around the world, from Brussels to Miami to the flea markets in Shanghai, hunting objects that can be transformed into artworks. The unconscious traces of the dust that fell over time, the damage that grew through daily use, and the marks that were left by people, are the reasons for Baudart's fascination with the ready-mades.

Transparent disposable medical masks are repeatedly overlaid, forming a suspended installation with a perfect curvature and metallic sheen. The intimately connected masks completely alter the perception of the medical purpose of the object and convert its form into a huge object weighing 20 kg. Baudart invites the viewer to look ”again“ by reworking materials in ways that flesh out their aesthetic possibilities in surprisingly awkward yet curious ways. In another work from the “OTS Series”, four radiator’s aluminum sheets are assembled together and extruded into a rippled pattern. Their flattened surface reflects different sources of light, revealing shimmering gloss against the dull, dense grids. Influenced by Dadaism and French Neo-Realism, Baudart exploits the production and phenomena of consumer society and industrial civilization. He inherits and expands Duchamp's concept of the 'ready-made' and devolves a different path: he neither uses the ready-made to provoke the traditional aesthetics nor completely accepts it. Baudart's works seek to recompose the ready-made to construct new contexts, proposing a reflection on people's gradually fixed stereotypes.

Baudart also transforms the title of the exhibition or the work into a playful metaphor or an explicit message. As in Reboot 003 (2018), a used rubber boot is completely flattened and framed on an aluminum plate, leaving the boot’s original structure and logo faintly visible. The title "Reboot" has a deadpan straightforward sense of humor - it is just a boot that has been "re-boot". This is his insight into art: most of the time, there is no need to make a new "work". He emphasizes that his daily routine as an artist is simply to find objects then transform them.
Eric Baudart has been widely exhibited internationally with solo exhibitions at the Centre d'art Contemporaine Les Tanneries, Amilly (2019), the Fondation d’entreprise Ricard (2011) and La Maison Rouge, Paris (2007), as well as group exhibitions at the Bass Museum of Art, Miami (2014); MAMCO, Geneva (2013); La Centrale for Contemporary Art, Brussels (2013); Le Petit Palais, Paris (2007). In 2011, he was the recipient of the Meurice Prize for contemporary art. Baudart’s work is held in various notable museum collections, including the MFA, Boston and the MAMCO, Geneva.

ABOUT UNSCHEDULED
As fairs and exhibitions resume in the wake of the pandemic’s unprecedented challenges, the Hong Kong Art Gallery Association (HKAGA) is excited to announce the return of UNSCHEDULED to showcase the strength of Hong Kong’s ever-burgeoning art scene and the city’s unique role as Asia’s international art center. The second edition will be held in the former flagship location of Topshop, in the heart of Central.
Neither a traditional art fair, nor a museum exhibition, UNSCHEDULED is a platform for selling and networking that was originally established as a response to the rise of COVID-19. The second edition will present solo exhibitions from 15 HKAGA gallery members, highlighting works by local and international artists.

Delicately transposed, it’s the displaced materiality in Eric Baudart’s (b. 1972) works that spurs their contemporary resonance. Honeycombed plastic, millimetre paper, adhesive tape – everyday, commonplace utensils are flushed of everyday contextualisation and repurposed to create oeuvres that titter on the edge of artifice. Baudart has been widely exhibited internationally with group exhibitions at the Bass Museum of Art, Miami (2014); MAMCO, Geneva (2013); La Centrale for Contemporary Art, Brussels (2013); Le Petit Palais, Paris (2007), as well as solo exhibitions at the Centre d'art Contemporaine Les Tanneries, Amilly (2019), the Fondation d’entreprise Ricard (2011) and La Maison Rouge, Paris (2007), among other locations. In 2011 he was the recipient of the Meurice Prize for contemporary art. Baudart’s work is held in various notable museum collections, including the MFA, Boston and the MAMCO, Geneva.
