星美术馆将于2022年9月23日在SSSSTART推出“艺术家谱系研究之十二——陆平原:画廊一夜”。
陆平原以艺术的定义、生成和流通为讨论核心,发展出了一系列结合艺术史、流行文化、个人经验等多重因素的创作。他的实践围绕“故事”这一独特形式,结合文本、影像、绘画、雕塑、装置等媒介,以虚构的手法让艺术在现实世界获得更广泛的指涉。而后在整体的项目现场中,陆平原将超现实叙事与概念艺术相结合,创造出一个与现实平行的、庞大的幻想世界,展现当代人类的精神困境,并重新挖掘人与万物精神联系的潜能。
本次展览题目源自上海电影美术制片厂1978年同名动画《画廊一夜》。原动画将当时制度与文艺的关系拟人化,其中的文艺作品通过相互协作、自治,来抵御一种既定标准带来的影响。这也让人联想到次年发生的艺术活动“星星美展”——第一届星星美展在中国美术馆外的栏杆上自发举办,第二届则进入中国美术馆。对陆平原来说,今天栏杆两边的二元叙事早已消失,取而代之的是自我心理建设时的惯性和面对复杂现实的焦灼。作为今天的创作者,陆平原敏锐地捕捉到这一现实,将栏杆这种万用但又无一用的公共设施诗歌化、个人痕迹化,以此来折射更为复杂和矛盾的世界。
《画廊一夜》将展出五部新近制作的MG叙事动画及全新尝试的栏杆雕塑。影片中陆平原挪用了《画廊一夜》中的两个典型形象——“帽子”和“棒子”,题材从“如何自我审视”到“如何获得赞美”,用催眠般的宣传口吻,让人隔绝于 “自我”且“安全”的超现实语境之中。

Start Museum will present the twelfth exhibition of Genealogy Study of Artists Lu Pingyuan: One Night at a Gallery at SSSSTART on 2022 September 23th.
Focusing on the definition, production and circulation of art, Lu Pingyuan’s artistic practice involves art history, popular culture as well as his personal experience. His practice begins with a unique form - “story”, together with the mediums of text, video, painting, sculpture and installation. Using a fictional approach, these “stories” give art a broader relevance to the reality. Then in the integrated project scene, Lu combines surreal narratives with conceptual art to create a vast fantasy world parallel to reality. Together, they reveal the spiritual dilemmas of contemporary humanity and rediscover the potential of people’s spiritual connection to all creations.
The title of this exhibition is derived from an animation work of Shanghai Animation Film Studio, One Night at a Gallery, 1978. The animation personated the relationship between the institution and art at the time, in which the art works collaborated and autonomised themselves to counteract the effects of an established standard. It is also reminiscent of the Stars Exhibition, an art event that took place the following year. The First Stars Exhibition was held spontaneously on the steel fences outside the National Art Museum of China, and the second was held in the museum. For Lu, the binary narratives on both sides of the fences have long been eliminated, instead there is the inertia of personal psychological construction, as well as the anxiety of facing a complex reality. As an artist today, Lu has keenly captured this reality, poetising and personalising the fences, a universal but useless public facility, in order to reflect a more complex and contradictory world.
One Night at a Gallery will present five newly produced motion graphics and a new series of sculptures, which consist of fence. The videos appropriates two iconic images from the 1978 animation One Night at a Gallery - Mr. “Hat” and Mr. “Stick”. With the subject matter ranging from “how to do self-examination” to “how to win compliments”, the videos use a hypnotic propaganda tone to isolate people in a surreal context of “self” and “safety”.
