关于上苑“国际创作计划”程小蓓答《中国新闻周刊》记者袁野问
激素当代艺术展前言
当代中国社会着了魔似的追着金钱和权势狂奔,象一群饥饿的猎狗猛追猎物。
艺术家活在鱼龙混杂的当下,成王败寇,有的撤退到社会的边缘,有的被迫淘汰。追求社会的良知和秩序,不为权势和金钱所屈服,秉持公共知识人的批判精神,希望这是中国文化人的传统。
此次当代艺术展的艺术家都较独立,南京前卫艺术家和来自五湖四海的上海当代艺术家,正是这样一拨知识人,他们既是上得刀山,下得火海的神通巫师,他们眼里永远白多黑少,他们自由思考,他们精神独立,这让他们有别于前辈,甘心被边缘化。南京艺术家们的作品以微观看中国,用日常生活小器物作装置,超越日常,以小博大,四两拨千斤,对一个诸法无依,诸行无常,如梦幻泡影,如露亦如电的世界,假装美好。上海当代艺术家直接截取日常生活的场景、事件,或器物再造,或童话影像,在一个开放的戏剧舞台空间里,生活就是舞台,观众就是演员,让观众在这个人性充满污秽的时代里自我清洗。
高速发展的中国当代社会就象一个罗马大斗兽场,一切善恶直裸裸,奉行的是丛林法则。金钱和权势是我们这个时代最强的催情激素。这也正是激素当代艺术展名字的来由,此次南京药艺术馆的小小的展览改变不了社会,也改造不了历史,但我们梦想通过一代又一代人日积月累的功夫,重塑我们的社会,重建我们自己的系统,自己的文化。

" Hormone" exhibition Preface
Chinese possessed bolted like chasing money and power in the contemporary society ,Like a hungry hound
s her prey.
The artist living in dragons and fishes jumbled together now, Losers are always in the wrong,Some retreated
to the edge of society,others forced out.The pursuit of social conscience and order,not for power and money,uphold
the public intellectual criticism spirit,I hope this is the Chinese tradition.
The contemporary art exhibition of artists are relatively independent,Nanjing avant-garde artists and the Shanghai
contemporary artists from all corners of the country .It is a batch of such scholars,They are on the highway, the fire
witch,their eyes are always more white than black,their independent thinking, their spirit of independence, which
make them distinct from the predecessors,they have been marginalised.Nanjing artist's work to see the Chinese micro,
with small daily life utensil device,beyond the daily,big with small,four two dials thousand catties,on a law not to
depend on, the library, a dreamlike, like dew and electrical world, pretend to be better.Shanghai contemporary artists
direct interception of daily life scenes, events, or objects reconstruction, or fairy tale image, in an open stage space,
life is the stage, the audience is actor,let the audience in the human nature is full of filth in the era of self cleaning.
The rapid development of China's contemporary society is like a Rome Coliseum,all the good and evil are naked,pursue is
the law of the jungle.Money and power are the strongest aphrodisiac hormone.This is the hormone contemporary art exhibition
of the origin of the name,the Nanjing Museum of art exhibition can not change society, also cannot reform history, but we
passed on from generation to generation days and months multiplying,remodeling of our society, reconstruction of our own system,
our own culture.
