A+ Contemporary 亚洲当代艺术空间荣幸地宣布,我们即将于2017年3月17日举行林奥劼的个展“我不是教你坏,也不是教 你诈”,展览将持续至 5月7日。
当代艺术如何在日常政治中创造新的想像力和协商方式?艺术家 林奥劼选择以个人经验和日常政治的琐碎疑问出发,通过包括录 像、装置、绘画、照片在内的多种形式,以旁敲侧击的隐晦批判 介入身份的复杂性与社会关系的敏感度。相比直指痛处的激烈对 抗,林奥劼更喜欢不露痕迹的“搔痒”,以一种看似不带任何感 情色彩的语调记录日常中涌动的微妙和暧昧,从纯粹以“物”为 中心的创作过程转向探讨关系机制化的生产方式,对空间乃至整 个体系进行批判或实践。艺术品并非艺术本身,而是艺术化生活 的纪录——艺术成为了生活/生产方式,成为了生命政治。资本 全球化背景下的消费主义以及商业化操作已经成为了当代艺术无 法避免的语境,在资本、市场的合谋下,艺术家的身份、自我意 识与社会分配的角色时时发生着冲突 ;同时扮演艺术家和从业者 双重角色的林奥劼似乎在透过他对现实的记录,谋划着从看似牢 不可破的生产链条、权利系统中发掘一条新出路。

If You Throw Enough Mud at the Wall, None of It Will Stick
Artist：Lin Aojie
Duration：Mar. 17, 2017- May.7, 2017
Reception：Mar. 17 (Fri.) 4 pm
Venue：A+ Contemporary｜Room 106, Bldg. 7, 50 Moganshan Road, Shanghai, China
A+ Contemporary is pleased to present the opening of artist Lin Aojie’s solo exhibition “If You Throw Enough Mud at the Wall, None of It Will Stick” on March 17th, 2017. The exhibition is on view through May 7th.
How does contemporary art create new kinds of imagination and negotiation tactics within politics of the everyday? Through various forms including video, installation, drawing, and photography, artist Lin Aojie chooses to confront these issues through the lens of personal experience and trivial politics of the everyday, making veiled criticisms to navigate the complexities of identity and sensitivities of social relationships. As opposed to aggressive, direct resistance, Lin Aojie prefers a traceless “scratch”, using a neutral tone to document the nuances and subtleties of the everyday; by turning from a purely object-oriented artistic process to the production of relational mechanics, Lin engages himself in spatial and institutional critique, or his own constructive practices altogether. An artwork is not simply art in and of itself, but a record of an artified life—art becomes life/ method of production and further, biopolitics. With globalization of the capital markets, consumerism and commercialized operations have inevitably become the backdrop of contemporary art. Under the political marriage of capital and market, an artist’s identity, self- awareness, and societal roles are constantly in conflict. Through his documentations of reality, Lin Aojie, with his double identity as artist and practitioner, cunningly forges a new path out of the ostensibly indestructible production chain and power system.
