CHEN Wei: Everyday scenery and props 陳維《日常,佈景和道具》
CHEN Wei
Everyday scenery and props 30 October – 5 December 2009 Gallery EXIT is pleased to announce Everyday scenery and props, the first solo exhibition of CHEN Wei with the gallery. Chen's cinematic touch and lush colors animate the ambience of the daily objects he chooses to photograph. On close viewing, it is discovered that everything, even the dirt on the floor, is a deliberate construction to suggest a time and place that no longer is. A few props serve as signifiers to a meaning that is waiting to be made. Memory and reality influence each other but the viewer is left in suspense until he makes up his mind and return to the everyday, which is always so familiar and foreign at the same time. Over the past six years, CHEN Wei (b.1980) has established himself as a studious conceptual photographer working in Hangzhou and currently in Beijing. His work has been exhibited at the 3rd Guangzhou Photo Biennial, Today Art Museum (Beijing), MoCA Shanghai, Poland and USA. |

《日常,佈景和道具》 2009年10月30日至12月5日 安全口畫廊將舉行陳維的首個香港個展《日常,佈景和道具》。 陳維的攝影作品洋溢豐富的電影感和鮮明色彩;他往往賦予尋常物件一種異常的生命力。當觀眾仔細看他的作品時,會發現所有的物件,甚至地上的污漬,都是經過深思熟慮的建構和重組,示意着一個不復存在的時空和地點。作品中的道具成為了獨特符徵,意義和內涵留待受眾去個別解讀。回憶與現實相互交錯影響,在觀眾心裡留下的懸念,直到重返既熟悉又陌生的日常生活中,長久仍未消散。 陳維(b.1980) 曾於杭州工作,現移居北京,過去六年裡積極建立自己成為概念攝影師。作品曾在第三屆廣州國際攝影雙年展、北京今日美術館、上海當代藝術館、以及波蘭、美國等國家展出。 |
