“故事新编”是何鸿毅家族基金会赞助的在古根海姆美术馆呈现的第二个关于中国的项目。与2015年汪建伟在古根海姆冷峻而抽象的个展不一样,观众在本次关于“中国”的展览中是一种不断遭遇各种地点和疆域的视觉和阅读经验,而“土地”在展览中的作品看来大部分是充满紧张、冲突和荒诞的。土地是关于时间消逝之后而留下无数历史痕迹的容器,地点的选择是一种隐喻以及方法论,从全球化浪潮涌现到如今地区冲突爆发、右翼势力和新保守主义危机四伏的今天,“地方”已经成为以个人叙事来替代历史书写的重要坐标。事 “New Story ” is the second project on China sponsored by the He Hongyi Family Foundation at the Guggenheim Museum. In contrast to Wang Jianwei’s grim and abstract solo exhibitions in 2015 in Guggenheim, the audience in this exhibition about “China” is a visual and reading experience that continually encounters various locations and territories, and “Land ”Most of the works in the exhibition appear to be full of tension, conflict and absurdity. Land is a container of innumerable historical traces after the passage of time. The choice of location is a metaphor and a methodology. From the emergence of the wave of globalization to the present crisis of regional conflicts, right-wing forces and neoconservatism today, the “place ”It has become an important coordinate to replace historical writing with personal narrative. thing
