展览概述：

此次展览通过三位艺术家的作品呈现一种异质的视觉体验，他们从自身长期的创作实践中获得的观念，用不同的方式表达自己的思考。这些作品所具备的如基因突变后的陌生气质，可以被视为一次偏离正常轨道的行走。
展览取名为“阿莱夫”，出自博尔赫斯同名小说。阿莱夫就是Aleph，希伯来文的第一个字母，被数学家用来指称无限的集合。在博尔赫斯的短篇小说中“Aleph”被描述成一个直径约两、三公分的闪亮的小圆球，整个宇宙空间都包罗其中。而在犹太教神秘主义者那里，“Aleph”的含义难以穷尽，代表着潜在的能量和可能性，超越空间和时间的极限。“Aleph”在此处可以转译成一个场域，展厅、作品、观众囊括其中。它既默认事态自动延伸的种种可能性，在面对现实层面上又保持自觉的警惕，并且有意模糊作品一贯以来的强势意图，以便打开一种观众可随时介入的自由空间。
在此，无论空间布局还是观念的传递，都试图脱离常规的罗列和意义阐释，而借力于开放、机动的现场实施。它流露出对某种正常观看秩序的背离和挂断，既对现场、现成品、绘画表面的直接干预和改造，又强调现实在各种复杂状态下所产生的话语的不确定性。

Introduction

Theexhibition presents an idiosyncratic visual experience through works of threeartists. They express their thinking by different ways based on the conceptobtained from long-term creation practice. These works can be regarded as thewalking deviating from normal track by their strange temperament just like genemutations.

Theexhibition is named ‘Aleph’, stepped from the novel with same name of Borges.Aleph means Aleph, the first letter of Hebrew, what is used to express infiniteset by mathematicians. In the short story of Borges, ‘aleph' is described as atwinkling small ball with a diameter about two to three centimeters and includesthe whole cosmic space. And for Jewish mystic, the meaning of ‘aleph' isdifficult to end and represents potential energy and possibilities, beyond thelimits of space and time. Here, ‘aleph' can be translated into a field andexhibition hall, works and audience are included into. It not only defaultsvarious possibilities of situation's automatic extension, but also keepsconscious vigilance in the aspect of facing reality, besides, it intentionallydilutes consistent strong intention of works so as to open a free space foraudience to enter at any time.

Nomatter space layout or concept transmission, the exhibition depends on open andmobile site implementation to separate from conventional list and meaninginterpretation. It shows a deviation and separation to some normal order, notonly directly intervenes and transforms the surface of site, finished productsand paintings, but also emphasizes words’ uncertainty of reality in variouscomplex conditions.
