Pics from the AuthentiCity Lounge, the dedicated space in NYC where the AuthentiCity exhibition took place.

 

“AuthentiCity” is a photography project conceived in cooperation with the School of Visual Arts (SVA), New York, aimed at young international artists who are SVA students or alumni.

 

The project theme – “Revealing purity and authenticity in urban life” – is an invitation to use the straightforward language of photography to explore signs of authenticity and purity in the urban setting.

 

The project began with more than 200 photographers, educated at SVA, who were charged with capturing their vision of urban life. The 19 works selected in the preliminary stage were presented last April in an open exhibition during the Milan Design Week. Five of the 19 photographers, Carlos Alvarez Montero, Igor Aronov, Matthew Baum, Giselle Behrens and Caroline Shepard, were then selected, through a series of juror selections, to continue their work and each received a cash prize of $3000.00. Project winners were then chosen to be featured in the dedicated exhibition at the illy issimo AuthentiCity Lounge in New York.

Eco moda d’autore Alessandro Acerra

Alessandro Acerra, dà il via a un collezionismo della moda, sotto il segno del riciclaggio & dell’autenticità. Cura dei dettagli, design ricercato e pregio dei materiali riciclati sono gli elementi distintivi della linea di moda. Le magliette sono fatte a mano una per una con massima cura e rifinitura finale ad ago, ogni esemplare è disegnato, ritagliato e cucito assemblando tessuti differenti. Alessandro elabora i soggetti, sceglie le stoffe, le ritaglia e imbastisce per poi cucirle. Sono “ eco ” perché le stoffe provengono da scarti sartoriali o da rimanenze di produttori famosi, tessuti che nascono per capi di lusso destinati alle passerelle modaiole milanesi vengono recuperate, mescolate per poi rivivere in nuova forma con un sano messaggio sociale. Progettati come quadri da indossare sono espressione di prezioso lusso, sono vere e proprie opere d’arte e allo stesso tempo oggetto di consumo: le si può indossare, sporcare, lavare oppure appendere al muro come quadri come consiglia lo stesso eco designer. Ogni t-shirt è diversa dall’altra e ha con sé un certificato di autenticità che ne garantisce l’unicità (una targhetta e la firma interna al capo e il numero di serie personale esprimono il pregio e il lusso di ogni capo, per soddisfare i collezionisti più esigenti).

Capi unici che cercano di combattere l’omologazione di massa portata dalla globalizzazione che valorizzano ogni singolo individuo. Ogni dettaglio, dalla creazione del prodotto alla spedizione, viene curato personalmente da Alessandro Acerra che non ama lasciare nulla al caso, come ogni artista che si rispetti. Anche il packaging estroso è frutto di un riuso, infatti vengono confezionate nei contenitori della pizza da asporto. Una scelta non casuale, ma espressione del legame al territorio italiano. La testimonianza contemporanea della più raffinata professionalità artigiana italiana. Simbolo di una delle poche cose che ancora rappresenta l’Italia nel mondo per qualità e produzione. Vero è proprio cibo per gli occhi!

AUTHORIAL ECOLOGICAL FASHION

Alessandro Acerra commenced a new concept of fashion, through the development of personal interpretation of the definition of recycling and authenticity.

The distinctive features of his fashion line are the fine details, the originality

of the design and the quality of the recycled materials. Each t-shirts is made with extreme care and realized in an exclusive way with the artist personal final finishing made by needle. The items are designed, cut out and sewn using different tissues. Alessandro draws the subjects, chooses the materials and paste everything together with his skilful touch. HIBU collection is 'eco' because each piece comes from remnants of famous brands or artigianal sartories. The clothes were once thought to be used by the famous Milan fashion catwalks and then recovered by Acerra, realizing today another art-form with an healthy message inherited. The items are paintings to be worn, they are an expression of luxury, they are at the same time real art work and consumerist objects. In fact you can wear, stain and clean them or simply hang them up to the wall like pictures, as the author himself advises. Each t-shirt is different from the others. Each one carries a certificate of authenticity which assure its uniqueness: there have a little tag, the signature of Alessandro Acerra and the serial number, expressing the good quality and the luxury of each article in order to satisfy even the most exacting collectors. Wearing a HIBU t-shirt tries to give a meaning to each individual, crating a personal fingerprint against the homologation generated by mass production and globalization. Alessandro Acerra personally takes care of all the details, from the concept of his masterpiece to the despatch of the product.

Even the package is excentric as you will receive the 'eco' t-shirts wrapped into “take-away pizza's boxes”. A choice which is not random, but it comes from the artist need of underlining his connection with both Italy and his substainable activity.

The ecological creations of Acerra are then a symbol of those elements which still nowadays represents Italy world-wide as quality and professionality. It derives from the choice of comes from a recycling as well.

「若時間是這一片海,我們在記憶中推引與淹沒。」

 

陳文祺,現任實踐大學媒體傳達設計學系(所)主任。「偽日記」是陳文祺繼2012年在北美館的「物自體」與海馬迴「物自體 2 Agape」個展後全新系列影像裝置創作。此次將在VT非常廟藝文空間展出數量高達100件的影像裝置,作品懸空浮出牆面,以標本盒凝結影像與文字的圖文日誌,呈現出記憶中的真實時空狀態。作品延續藝術家以往創作脈絡,討論時空與人的存在關係,回應時空與記憶之於人如蟻穴的生物樣態。

 

在「偽日記」中,藝術家將活版鉛字結合黑白影像,將旅行於五個城市的觀察與內心的感受諸之筆墨的表達方式;在裝置中記錄著無法辨識的時間、空間與不曾存在的真實記憶, 作品體現後設認知(metacognition)如何成形為人為的偽造,影像的作舊感混淆並打破時間感,它從未橫跨過去與未來的視野,也不存在於現在。活版鉛字復刻出墨味與字模,一字一魂的敲打墨印於無酸厚紙,凹陷的墨字詩句是活字的殘留物,文字於紙上的再現與陷痕則提煉出冶字的藝術性與非快的慢品味。

 

在陳文祺的「偽日記」中探討著時間的飄渺與無常性。「偽」人為也,若以人為中心,人為的一切無一真實;過去曾是真理的今天可能成了謬誤,而今天是為謬誤的在明日可能是真理。對於真實,人們早已似回應納西瑟斯(Narcissus)的回聲(echo)中迴響空谷;「偽日記」中對於影像的真實如同記憶的可信度,看似完整與客觀的拍攝,經由書寫,讓時空的思維向度迷失在認知夾縫中。此系列作品完全回應創作者將影像視為「死亡的印記」的一貫創作脈絡,100見裝置懸浮於半空,適切地貼近觀看與閱讀,於此刻你我所觀賞到的時空回音都凝結在每件沈甸甸的木盒中,最終置入鏡面般金屬盒內封印。影像日記中書寫著京都、東京、上海、曼谷、臺北的切片,在今日數位化的介面,古拙的影像與文字顯現方式煙霧化了此刻觀注究竟是何年代。陳文祺透過日記般回數記憶的寫作,將內心感受與對物、我的關注與歷程,皆透過自成一格的筆法遊戲的或抑鬱的敘述回應在每一個鉛字與紙墨的撞擊;每篇文字梳理自身理性及感性的景緻。觀眾若有勇氣拋開時間上的限制,閱讀每一篇日記裡的視點與時空概念,圖、文、語言的邏輯思辨將在觀看作品的當下生津。

 

時間的靜默是真實的感受,萬物與時間是凝結的,弔詭的是時間與記憶糾纏。時間與空間不是扁平的影像,當感知能夠製造與複製,攝影恰是複製時空的影像片段,文字勾畫已過去的感受,而鉛字本為大量複製的特質,在「偽日記」裡成了宛如標本般的印刻在畫面中。然而真實是,即使我們認為這一切的凝結,時間也重來沒有停滯過,一切記錄都是真實無關,只是製造著真實的過去。藝術家反覆辯證著影像和時空關係,將在此複合向度之下提供觀者在影像與冶字的思緒蜂室。

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space. This series follows on the concept of the "Flesh is the prison of the soul" series, 100 installation works is suspended in mid-air, allowing a appropriate distance for seeing and reading, the heavy wooden box we see, will in the end be sealed into a mirror finished metal box. Photographic diary with slices of Kyoto, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Taipei, confused the viewer of today's digital-oriented world, to what time and period we are looking. Chen Wen-Chi through the act of diary writing, express his feelings and concern with history, each text contain their rational and emotional landscape. If viewers can put aside time constraints, read every diary in space-time, conceptual, logical, speculative point of view, text, language of the work will flow in the current time.

 

Quiet times are real feelings, everything is condensed with time, time and memory entangles. Time and space are not flat images, they can be produced and reproduce, photography is precisely replicated time and space footage, text outline of past experience, large scale duplication quality of lead type, in " Authenticity Temporal Memory" has become specimen like engraved onto the screen. But truth is, even if we think that all is frozen, time has never stopped, all records are unrelated to reality, just a creation of a real past. Artists repeated assess the relations between images and space-time, providing the viewer a composition of images and words under the rule of a conceptual dimension.

Pics from the AuthentiCity Lounge, the dedicated space in NYC where the AuthentiCity exhibition took place.

 

“AuthentiCity” is a photography project conceived in cooperation with the School of Visual Arts (SVA), New York, aimed at young international artists who are SVA students or alumni.

 

The project theme – “Revealing purity and authenticity in urban life” – is an invitation to use the straightforward language of photography to explore signs of authenticity and purity in the urban setting.

 

The project began with more than 200 photographers, educated at SVA, who were charged with capturing their vision of urban life. The 19 works selected in the preliminary stage were presented last April in an open exhibition during the Milan Design Week. Five of the 19 photographers, Carlos Alvarez Montero, Igor Aronov, Matthew Baum, Giselle Behrens and Caroline Shepard, were then selected, through a series of juror selections, to continue their work and each received a cash prize of $3000.00. Project winners were then chosen to be featured in the dedicated exhibition at the illy issimo AuthentiCity Lounge in New York.

「若時間是這一片海,我們在記憶中推引與淹沒。」

 

陳文祺,現任實踐大學媒體傳達設計學系(所)主任。「偽日記」是陳文祺繼2012年在北美館的「物自體」與海馬迴「物自體 2 Agape」個展後全新系列影像裝置創作。此次將在VT非常廟藝文空間展出數量高達100件的影像裝置,作品懸空浮出牆面,以標本盒凝結影像與文字的圖文日誌,呈現出記憶中的真實時空狀態。作品延續藝術家以往創作脈絡,討論時空與人的存在關係,回應時空與記憶之於人如蟻穴的生物樣態。

 

在「偽日記」中,藝術家將活版鉛字結合黑白影像,將旅行於五個城市的觀察與內心的感受諸之筆墨的表達方式;在裝置中記錄著無法辨識的時間、空間與不曾存在的真實記憶, 作品體現後設認知(metacognition)如何成形為人為的偽造,影像的作舊感混淆並打破時間感,它從未橫跨過去與未來的視野,也不存在於現在。活版鉛字復刻出墨味與字模,一字一魂的敲打墨印於無酸厚紙,凹陷的墨字詩句是活字的殘留物,文字於紙上的再現與陷痕則提煉出冶字的藝術性與非快的慢品味。

 

在陳文祺的「偽日記」中探討著時間的飄渺與無常性。「偽」人為也,若以人為中心,人為的一切無一真實;過去曾是真理的今天可能成了謬誤,而今天是為謬誤的在明日可能是真理。對於真實,人們早已似回應納西瑟斯(Narcissus)的回聲(echo)中迴響空谷;「偽日記」中對於影像的真實如同記憶的可信度,看似完整與客觀的拍攝,經由書寫,讓時空的思維向度迷失在認知夾縫中。此系列作品完全回應創作者將影像視為「死亡的印記」的一貫創作脈絡,100見裝置懸浮於半空,適切地貼近觀看與閱讀,於此刻你我所觀賞到的時空回音都凝結在每件沈甸甸的木盒中,最終置入鏡面般金屬盒內封印。影像日記中書寫著京都、東京、上海、曼谷、臺北的切片,在今日數位化的介面,古拙的影像與文字顯現方式煙霧化了此刻觀注究竟是何年代。陳文祺透過日記般回數記憶的寫作,將內心感受與對物、我的關注與歷程,皆透過自成一格的筆法遊戲的或抑鬱的敘述回應在每一個鉛字與紙墨的撞擊;每篇文字梳理自身理性及感性的景緻。觀眾若有勇氣拋開時間上的限制,閱讀每一篇日記裡的視點與時空概念,圖、文、語言的邏輯思辨將在觀看作品的當下生津。

 

時間的靜默是真實的感受,萬物與時間是凝結的,弔詭的是時間與記憶糾纏。時間與空間不是扁平的影像,當感知能夠製造與複製,攝影恰是複製時空的影像片段,文字勾畫已過去的感受,而鉛字本為大量複製的特質,在「偽日記」裡成了宛如標本般的印刻在畫面中。然而真實是,即使我們認為這一切的凝結,時間也重來沒有停滯過,一切記錄都是真實無關,只是製造著真實的過去。藝術家反覆辯證著影像和時空關係,將在此複合向度之下提供觀者在影像與冶字的思緒蜂室。

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space. This series follows on the concept of the "Flesh is the prison of the soul" series, 100 installation works is suspended in mid-air, allowing a appropriate distance for seeing and reading, the heavy wooden box we see, will in the end be sealed into a mirror finished metal box. Photographic diary with slices of Kyoto, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Taipei, confused the viewer of today's digital-oriented world, to what time and period we are looking. Chen Wen-Chi through the act of diary writing, express his feelings and concern with history, each text contain their rational and emotional landscape. If viewers can put aside time constraints, read every diary in space-time, conceptual, logical, speculative point of view, text, language of the work will flow in the current time.

 

Quiet times are real feelings, everything is condensed with time, time and memory entangles. Time and space are not flat images, they can be produced and reproduce, photography is precisely replicated time and space footage, text outline of past experience, large scale duplication quality of lead type, in " Authenticity Temporal Memory" has become specimen like engraved onto the screen. But truth is, even if we think that all is frozen, time has never stopped, all records are unrelated to reality, just a creation of a real past. Artists repeated assess the relations between images and space-time, providing the viewer a composition of images and words under the rule of a conceptual dimension.

Eco moda d’autore Alessandro Acerra

Alessandro Acerra, dà il via a un collezionismo della moda, sotto il segno del riciclaggio & dell’autenticità. Cura dei dettagli, design ricercato e pregio dei materiali riciclati sono gli elementi distintivi della linea di moda. Le magliette sono fatte a mano una per una con massima cura e rifinitura finale ad ago, ogni esemplare è disegnato, ritagliato e cucito assemblando tessuti differenti. Alessandro elabora i soggetti, sceglie le stoffe, le ritaglia e imbastisce per poi cucirle. Sono “ eco ” perché le stoffe provengono da scarti sartoriali o da rimanenze di produttori famosi, tessuti che nascono per capi di lusso destinati alle passerelle modaiole milanesi vengono recuperate, mescolate per poi rivivere in nuova forma con un sano messaggio sociale. Progettati come quadri da indossare sono espressione di prezioso lusso, sono vere e proprie opere d’arte e allo stesso tempo oggetto di consumo: le si può indossare, sporcare, lavare oppure appendere al muro come quadri come consiglia lo stesso eco designer. Ogni t-shirt è diversa dall’altra e ha con sé un certificato di autenticità che ne garantisce l’unicità (una targhetta e la firma interna al capo e il numero di serie personale esprimono il pregio e il lusso di ogni capo, per soddisfare i collezionisti più esigenti).

Capi unici che cercano di combattere l’omologazione di massa portata dalla globalizzazione che valorizzano ogni singolo individuo. Ogni dettaglio, dalla creazione del prodotto alla spedizione, viene curato personalmente da Alessandro Acerra che non ama lasciare nulla al caso, come ogni artista che si rispetti. Anche il packaging estroso è frutto di un riuso, infatti vengono confezionate nei contenitori della pizza da asporto. Una scelta non casuale, ma espressione del legame al territorio italiano. La testimonianza contemporanea della più raffinata professionalità artigiana italiana. Simbolo di una delle poche cose che ancora rappresenta l’Italia nel mondo per qualità e produzione. Vero è proprio cibo per gli occhi!

Pics from the AuthentiCity Lounge, the dedicated space in NYC where the AuthentiCity exhibition took place.

 

“AuthentiCity” is a photography project conceived in cooperation with the School of Visual Arts (SVA), New York, aimed at young international artists who are SVA students or alumni.

 

The project theme – “Revealing purity and authenticity in urban life” – is an invitation to use the straightforward language of photography to explore signs of authenticity and purity in the urban setting.

 

The project began with more than 200 photographers, educated at SVA, who were charged with capturing their vision of urban life. The 19 works selected in the preliminary stage were presented last April in an open exhibition during the Milan Design Week. Five of the 19 photographers, Carlos Alvarez Montero, Igor Aronov, Matthew Baum, Giselle Behrens and Caroline Shepard, were then selected, through a series of juror selections, to continue their work and each received a cash prize of $3000.00. Project winners were then chosen to be featured in the dedicated exhibition at the illy issimo AuthentiCity Lounge in New York.

The ecological creations of Acerra are then a symbol of those elements which still nowadays represents Italy world-wide as quality and professionality. It derives from the choice of comes from a recycling as well.

Bio:

Igor Aronov was born in Kharkov, Ukraine and immigrated to USA in 1989. He graduated from SVA, NY in 1997 with a BFA degree in Photography. Since then, Igor has been working as a graphic designer and a photographer. He lives in Brooklyn, NY with his wife and three children.

 

Description of work:

“AuthentiCity”: the city lives, it breathes, it moves, it reflects. I was walking around in the pouring rain, searching for the elusive purity and simplicity of everyday life of the city and its inhabitants. I was looking for its soul hiding behind the facade of daily bustle. In reflections, I was trying to catch a glimpse of its real face. The buildings turned into shapes, and the lights transformed into splashes of color. I tried to get really close, as if taking a portrait of someone I see every day and finding new expressions among the familiar features.And the rain became the symbol of purity washing away everything superficial from glass and concrete. And the rain drops glittered in the lights of the city. And my city revealed itself to me.

「若時間是這一片海,我們在記憶中推引與淹沒。」

 

陳文祺,現任實踐大學媒體傳達設計學系(所)主任。「偽日記」是陳文祺繼2012年在北美館的「物自體」與海馬迴「物自體 2 Agape」個展後全新系列影像裝置創作。此次將在VT非常廟藝文空間展出數量高達100件的影像裝置,作品懸空浮出牆面,以標本盒凝結影像與文字的圖文日誌,呈現出記憶中的真實時空狀態。作品延續藝術家以往創作脈絡,討論時空與人的存在關係,回應時空與記憶之於人如蟻穴的生物樣態。

 

在「偽日記」中,藝術家將活版鉛字結合黑白影像,將旅行於五個城市的觀察與內心的感受諸之筆墨的表達方式;在裝置中記錄著無法辨識的時間、空間與不曾存在的真實記憶, 作品體現後設認知(metacognition)如何成形為人為的偽造,影像的作舊感混淆並打破時間感,它從未橫跨過去與未來的視野,也不存在於現在。活版鉛字復刻出墨味與字模,一字一魂的敲打墨印於無酸厚紙,凹陷的墨字詩句是活字的殘留物,文字於紙上的再現與陷痕則提煉出冶字的藝術性與非快的慢品味。

 

在陳文祺的「偽日記」中探討著時間的飄渺與無常性。「偽」人為也,若以人為中心,人為的一切無一真實;過去曾是真理的今天可能成了謬誤,而今天是為謬誤的在明日可能是真理。對於真實,人們早已似回應納西瑟斯(Narcissus)的回聲(echo)中迴響空谷;「偽日記」中對於影像的真實如同記憶的可信度,看似完整與客觀的拍攝,經由書寫,讓時空的思維向度迷失在認知夾縫中。此系列作品完全回應創作者將影像視為「死亡的印記」的一貫創作脈絡,100見裝置懸浮於半空,適切地貼近觀看與閱讀,於此刻你我所觀賞到的時空回音都凝結在每件沈甸甸的木盒中,最終置入鏡面般金屬盒內封印。影像日記中書寫著京都、東京、上海、曼谷、臺北的切片,在今日數位化的介面,古拙的影像與文字顯現方式煙霧化了此刻觀注究竟是何年代。陳文祺透過日記般回數記憶的寫作,將內心感受與對物、我的關注與歷程,皆透過自成一格的筆法遊戲的或抑鬱的敘述回應在每一個鉛字與紙墨的撞擊;每篇文字梳理自身理性及感性的景緻。觀眾若有勇氣拋開時間上的限制,閱讀每一篇日記裡的視點與時空概念,圖、文、語言的邏輯思辨將在觀看作品的當下生津。

 

時間的靜默是真實的感受,萬物與時間是凝結的,弔詭的是時間與記憶糾纏。時間與空間不是扁平的影像,當感知能夠製造與複製,攝影恰是複製時空的影像片段,文字勾畫已過去的感受,而鉛字本為大量複製的特質,在「偽日記」裡成了宛如標本般的印刻在畫面中。然而真實是,即使我們認為這一切的凝結,時間也重來沒有停滯過,一切記錄都是真實無關,只是製造著真實的過去。藝術家反覆辯證著影像和時空關係,將在此複合向度之下提供觀者在影像與冶字的思緒蜂室。

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space. This series follows on the concept of the "Flesh is the prison of the soul" series, 100 installation works is suspended in mid-air, allowing a appropriate distance for seeing and reading, the heavy wooden box we see, will in the end be sealed into a mirror finished metal box. Photographic diary with slices of Kyoto, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Taipei, confused the viewer of today's digital-oriented world, to what time and period we are looking. Chen Wen-Chi through the act of diary writing, express his feelings and concern with history, each text contain their rational and emotional landscape. If viewers can put aside time constraints, read every diary in space-time, conceptual, logical, speculative point of view, text, language of the work will flow in the current time.

 

Quiet times are real feelings, everything is condensed with time, time and memory entangles. Time and space are not flat images, they can be produced and reproduce, photography is precisely replicated time and space footage, text outline of past experience, large scale duplication quality of lead type, in " Authenticity Temporal Memory" has become specimen like engraved onto the screen. But truth is, even if we think that all is frozen, time has never stopped, all records are unrelated to reality, just a creation of a real past. Artists repeated assess the relations between images and space-time, providing the viewer a composition of images and words under the rule of a conceptual dimension.

Eco moda d’autore Alessandro Acerra

Alessandro Acerra, dà il via a un collezionismo della moda, sotto il segno del riciclaggio & dell’autenticità. Cura dei dettagli, design ricercato e pregio dei materiali riciclati sono gli elementi distintivi della linea di moda. Le magliette sono fatte a mano una per una con massima cura e rifinitura finale ad ago, ogni esemplare è disegnato, ritagliato e cucito assemblando tessuti differenti. Alessandro elabora i soggetti, sceglie le stoffe, le ritaglia e imbastisce per poi cucirle. Sono “ eco ” perché le stoffe provengono da scarti sartoriali o da rimanenze di produttori famosi, tessuti che nascono per capi di lusso destinati alle passerelle modaiole milanesi vengono recuperate, mescolate per poi rivivere in nuova forma con un sano messaggio sociale. Progettati come quadri da indossare sono espressione di prezioso lusso, sono vere e proprie opere d’arte e allo stesso tempo oggetto di consumo: le si può indossare, sporcare, lavare oppure appendere al muro come quadri come consiglia lo stesso eco designer. Ogni t-shirt è diversa dall’altra e ha con sé un certificato di autenticità che ne garantisce l’unicità (una targhetta e la firma interna al capo e il numero di serie personale esprimono il pregio e il lusso di ogni capo, per soddisfare i collezionisti più esigenti).

Capi unici che cercano di combattere l’omologazione di massa portata dalla globalizzazione che valorizzano ogni singolo individuo. Ogni dettaglio, dalla creazione del prodotto alla spedizione, viene curato personalmente da Alessandro Acerra che non ama lasciare nulla al caso, come ogni artista che si rispetti. Anche il packaging estroso è frutto di un riuso, infatti vengono confezionate nei contenitori della pizza da asporto. Una scelta non casuale, ma espressione del legame al territorio italiano. La testimonianza contemporanea della più raffinata professionalità artigiana italiana. Simbolo di una delle poche cose che ancora rappresenta l’Italia nel mondo per qualità e produzione. Vero è proprio cibo per gli occhi!

AUTHORIAL ECOLOGICAL FASHION

Alessandro Acerra commenced a new concept of fashion, through the development of personal interpretation of the definition of recycling and authenticity.

The distinctive features of his fashion line are the fine details, the originality

of the design and the quality of the recycled materials. Each t-shirts is made with extreme care and realized in an exclusive way with the artist personal final finishing made by needle. The items are designed, cut out and sewn using different tissues. Alessandro draws the subjects, chooses the materials and paste everything together with his skilful touch. HIBU collection is 'eco' because each piece comes from remnants of famous brands or artigianal sartories. The clothes were once thought to be used by the famous Milan fashion catwalks and then recovered by Acerra, realizing today another art-form with an healthy message inherited. The items are paintings to be worn, they are an expression of luxury, they are at the same time real art work and consumerist objects. In fact you can wear, stain and clean them or simply hang them up to the wall like pictures, as the author himself advises. Each t-shirt is different from the others. Each one carries a certificate of authenticity which assure its uniqueness: there have a little tag, the signature of Alessandro Acerra and the serial number, expressing the good quality and the luxury of each article in order to satisfy even the most exacting collectors. Wearing a HIBU t-shirt tries to give a meaning to each individual, crating a personal fingerprint against the homologation generated by mass production and globalization. Alessandro Acerra personally takes care of all the details, from the concept of his masterpiece to the despatch of the product.

Even the package is excentric as you will receive the 'eco' t-shirts wrapped into “take-away pizza's boxes”. A choice which is not random, but it comes from the artist need of underlining his connection with both Italy and his substainable activity.

The ecological creations of Acerra are then a symbol of those elements which still nowadays represents Italy world-wide as quality and professionality. It derives from the choice of comes from a recycling as well.

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space. This series follows on the concept of the "Flesh is the prison of the soul" series, 100 installation works is suspended in mid-air, allowing a appropriate distance for seeing and reading, the heavy wooden box we see, will in the end be sealed into a mirror finished metal box. Photographic diary with slices of Kyoto, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Taipei, confused the viewer of today's digital-oriented world, to what time and period we are looking. Chen Wen-Chi through the act of diary writing, express his feelings and concern with history, each text contain their rational and emotional landscape. If viewers can put aside time constraints, read every diary in space-time, conceptual, logical, speculative point of view, text, language of the work will flow in the current time.

 

Quiet times are real feelings, everything is condensed with time, time and memory entangles. Time and space are not flat images, they can be produced and reproduce, photography is precisely replicated time and space footage, text outline of past experience, large scale duplication quality of lead type, in " Authenticity Temporal Memory" has become specimen like engraved onto the screen. But truth is, even if we think that all is frozen, time has never stopped, all records are unrelated to reality, just a creation of a real past. Artists repeated assess the relations between images and space-time, providing the viewer a composition of images and words under the rule of a conceptual dimension.

在陳文祺的「偽日記」中探討著時間的飄渺與無常性。「偽」人為也,若以人為中心,人為的一切無一真實;過去曾是真理的今天可能成了謬誤,而今天是為謬誤的在明日可能是真理。對於真實,人們早已似回應納西瑟斯(Narcissus)的回聲(echo)中迴響空谷;「偽日記」中對於影像的真實如同記憶的可信度,看似完整與客觀的拍攝,經由書寫,讓時空的思維向度迷失在認知夾縫中。此系列作品完全回應創作者將影像視為「死亡的印記」的一貫創作脈絡,100見裝置懸浮於半空,適切地貼近觀看與閱讀,於此刻你我所觀賞到的時空回音都凝結在每件沈甸甸的木盒中,最終置入鏡面般金屬盒內封印。影像日記中書寫著京都、東京、上海、曼谷、臺北的切片,在今日數位化的介面,古拙的影像與文字顯現方式煙霧化了此刻觀注究竟是何年代。陳文祺透過日記般回數記憶的寫作,將內心感受與對物、我的關注與歷程,皆透過自成一格的筆法遊戲的或抑鬱的敘述回應在每一個鉛字與紙墨的撞擊;每篇文字梳理自身理性及感性的景緻。觀眾若有勇氣拋開時間上的限制,閱讀每一篇日記裡的視點與時空概念,圖、文、語言的邏輯思辨將在觀看作品的當下生津。

 

時間的靜默是真實的感受,萬物與時間是凝結的,弔詭的是時間與記憶糾纏。時間與空間不是扁平的影像,當感知能夠製造與複製,攝影恰是複製時空的影像片段,文字勾畫已過去的感受,而鉛字本為大量複製的特質,在「偽日記」裡成了宛如標本般的印刻在畫面中。然而真實是,即使我們認為這一切的凝結,時間也重來沒有停滯過,一切記錄都是真實無關,只是製造著真實的過去。藝術家反覆辯證著影像和時空關係,將在此複合向度之下提供觀者在影像與冶字的思緒蜂室。

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space. This series follows on the concept of the "Flesh is the prison of the soul" series, 100 installation works is suspended in mid-air, allowing a appropriate distance for seeing and reading, the heavy wooden box we see, will in the end be sealed into a mirror finished metal box. Photographic diary with slices of Kyoto, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Taipei, confused the viewer of today's digital-oriented world, to what time and period we are looking. Chen Wen-Chi through the act of diary writing, express his feelings and concern with history, each text contain their rational and emotional landscape. If viewers can put aside time constraints, read every diary in space-time, conceptual, logical, speculative point of view, text, language of the work will flow in the current time.

 

Quiet times are real feelings, everything is condensed with time, time and memory entangles. Time and space are not flat images, they can be produced and reproduce, photography is precisely replicated time and space footage, text outline of past experience, large scale duplication quality of lead type, in " Authenticity Temporal Memory" has become specimen like engraved onto the screen. But truth is, even if we think that all is frozen, time has never stopped, all records are unrelated to reality, just a creation of a real past. Artists repeated assess the relations between images and space-time, providing the viewer a composition of images and words under the rule of a conceptual dimension.

“AuthentiCity” is a photography project conceived in cooperation with the School of Visual Arts (SVA), New York, aimed at young international artists who are SVA students or alumni.

 

The project theme – “Revealing purity and authenticity in urban life” – is an invitation to use the straightforward language of photography to explore signs of authenticity and purity in the urban setting.

 

The project began with more than 200 photographers, educated at SVA, who were charged with capturing their vision of urban life. The 19 works selected in the preliminary stage were presented last April in an open exhibition during the Milan Design Week. Five of the 19 photographers, Carlos Alvarez Montero, Igor Aronov, Matthew Baum, Giselle Behrens and Caroline Shepard, were then selected, through a series of juror selections, to continue their work and each received a cash prize of $3000.00. Project winners were then chosen to be featured in the dedicated exhibition at the illy issimo AuthentiCity Lounge in New York.

National Park Ranger intern at the Pea Ridge National Military Park in northwest Arkansas

 

He demonstrated the drill that soldiers in the Civil War would follow to load and fire the muzzle-loading rifle that he's holding. When asked what he noticed the most about it, he said the heat. The weather was rather warm (about 90 F, 32 C), and he's wearing a fairly authentic uniform of the era. They were made primarily of wool, and the jacket could get pretty hot during the summertime. The Battle of Pea Ridge occurred in early March of 1862, when the weather was quite cold, below freezing much of the time.

在「偽日記」中,藝術家將活版鉛字結合黑白影像,將旅行於五個城市的觀察與內心的感受諸之筆墨的表達方式;在裝置中記錄著無法辨識的時間、空間與不曾存在的真實記憶, 作品體現後設認知(metacognition)如何成形為人為的偽造,影像的作舊感混淆並打破時間感,它從未橫跨過去與未來的視野,也不存在於現在。活版鉛字復刻出墨味與字模,一字一魂的敲打墨印於無酸厚紙,凹陷的墨字詩句是活字的殘留物,文字於紙上的再現與陷痕則提煉出冶字的藝術性與非快的慢品味。

 

在陳文祺的「偽日記」中探討著時間的飄渺與無常性。「偽」人為也,若以人為中心,人為的一切無一真實;過去曾是真理的今天可能成了謬誤,而今天是為謬誤的在明日可能是真理。對於真實,人們早已似回應納西瑟斯(Narcissus)的回聲(echo)中迴響空谷;「偽日記」中對於影像的真實如同記憶的可信度,看似完整與客觀的拍攝,經由書寫,讓時空的思維向度迷失在認知夾縫中。此系列作品完全回應創作者將影像視為「死亡的印記」的一貫創作脈絡,100見裝置懸浮於半空,適切地貼近觀看與閱讀,於此刻你我所觀賞到的時空回音都凝結在每件沈甸甸的木盒中,最終置入鏡面般金屬盒內封印。影像日記中書寫著京都、東京、上海、曼谷、臺北的切片,在今日數位化的介面,古拙的影像與文字顯現方式煙霧化了此刻觀注究竟是何年代。陳文祺透過日記般回數記憶的寫作,將內心感受與對物、我的關注與歷程,皆透過自成一格的筆法遊戲的或抑鬱的敘述回應在每一個鉛字與紙墨的撞擊;每篇文字梳理自身理性及感性的景緻。觀眾若有勇氣拋開時間上的限制,閱讀每一篇日記裡的視點與時空概念,圖、文、語言的邏輯思辨將在觀看作品的當下生津。

 

時間的靜默是真實的感受,萬物與時間是凝結的,弔詭的是時間與記憶糾纏。時間與空間不是扁平的影像,當感知能夠製造與複製,攝影恰是複製時空的影像片段,文字勾畫已過去的感受,而鉛字本為大量複製的特質,在「偽日記」裡成了宛如標本般的印刻在畫面中。然而真實是,即使我們認為這一切的凝結,時間也重來沒有停滯過,一切記錄都是真實無關,只是製造著真實的過去。藝術家反覆辯證著影像和時空關係,將在此複合向度之下提供觀者在影像與冶字的思緒蜂室。

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space. This series follows on the concept of the "Flesh is the prison of the soul" series, 100 installation works is suspended in mid-air, allowing a appropriate distance for seeing and reading, the heavy wooden box we see, will in the end be sealed into a mirror finished metal box. Photographic diary with slices of Kyoto, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Taipei, confused the viewer of today's digital-oriented world, to what time and period we are looking. Chen Wen-Chi through the act of diary writing, express his feelings and concern with history, each text contain their rational and emotional landscape. If viewers can put aside time constraints, read every diary in space-time, conceptual, logical, speculative point of view, text, language of the work will flow in the current time.

 

Quiet times are real feelings, everything is condensed with time, time and memory entangles. Time and space are not flat images, they can be produced and reproduce, photography is precisely replicated time and space footage, text outline of past experience, large scale duplication quality of lead type, in " Authenticity Temporal Memory" has become specimen like engraved onto the screen. But truth is, even if we think that all is frozen, time has never stopped, all records are unrelated to reality, just a creation of a real past. Artists repeated assess the relations between images and space-time, providing the viewer a composition of images and words under the rule of a conceptual dimension.

“AuthentiCity” is a photography project conceived in cooperation with the School of Visual Arts (SVA), New York, aimed at young international artists who are SVA students or alumni.

 

The project theme – “Revealing purity and authenticity in urban life” – is an invitation to use the straightforward language of photography to explore signs of authenticity and purity in the urban setting.

 

The project began with more than 200 photographers, educated at SVA, who were charged with capturing their vision of urban life. The 19 works selected in the preliminary stage were presented last April in an open exhibition during the Milan Design Week. Five of the 19 photographers, Carlos Alvarez Montero, Igor Aronov, Matthew Baum, Giselle Behrens and Caroline Shepard, were then selected, through a series of juror selections, to continue their work and each received a cash prize of $3000.00. Project winners were then chosen to be featured in the dedicated exhibition at the illy issimo AuthentiCity Lounge in New York.

Eco moda d’autore Alessandro Acerra

Alessandro Acerra, dà il via a un collezionismo della moda, sotto il segno del riciclaggio & dell’autenticità. Cura dei dettagli, design ricercato e pregio dei materiali riciclati sono gli elementi distintivi della linea di moda. Le magliette sono fatte a mano una per una con massima cura e rifinitura finale ad ago, ogni esemplare è disegnato, ritagliato e cucito assemblando tessuti differenti. Alessandro elabora i soggetti, sceglie le stoffe, le ritaglia e imbastisce per poi cucirle. Sono “ eco ” perché le stoffe provengono da scarti sartoriali o da rimanenze di produttori famosi, tessuti che nascono per capi di lusso destinati alle passerelle modaiole milanesi vengono recuperate, mescolate per poi rivivere in nuova forma con un sano messaggio sociale. Progettati come quadri da indossare sono espressione di prezioso lusso, sono vere e proprie opere d’arte e allo stesso tempo oggetto di consumo: le si può indossare, sporcare, lavare oppure appendere al muro come quadri come consiglia lo stesso eco designer. Ogni t-shirt è diversa dall’altra e ha con sé un certificato di autenticità che ne garantisce l’unicità (una targhetta e la firma interna al capo e il numero di serie personale esprimono il pregio e il lusso di ogni capo, per soddisfare i collezionisti più esigenti).

Capi unici che cercano di combattere l’omologazione di massa portata dalla globalizzazione che valorizzano ogni singolo individuo. Ogni dettaglio, dalla creazione del prodotto alla spedizione, viene curato personalmente da Alessandro Acerra che non ama lasciare nulla al caso, come ogni artista che si rispetti. Anche il packaging estroso è frutto di un riuso, infatti vengono confezionate nei contenitori della pizza da asporto. Una scelta non casuale, ma espressione del legame al territorio italiano. La testimonianza contemporanea della più raffinata professionalità artigiana italiana. Simbolo di una delle poche cose che ancora rappresenta l’Italia nel mondo per qualità e produzione. Vero è proprio cibo per gli occhi!

AUTHORIAL ECOLOGICAL FASHION

Alessandro Acerra commenced a new concept of fashion, through the development of personal interpretation of the definition of recycling and authenticity.

The distinctive features of his fashion line are the fine details, the originality

of the design and the quality of the recycled materials. Each t-shirts is made with extreme care and realized in an exclusive way with the artist personal final finishing made by needle. The items are designed, cut out and sewn using different tissues. Alessandro draws the subjects, chooses the materials and paste everything together with his skilful touch. HIBU collection is 'eco' because each piece comes from remnants of famous brands or artigianal sartories. The clothes were once thought to be used by the famous Milan fashion catwalks and then recovered by Acerra, realizing today another art-form with an healthy message inherited. The items are paintings to be worn, they are an expression of luxury, they are at the same time real art work and consumerist objects. In fact you can wear, stain and clean them or simply hang them up to the wall like pictures, as the author himself advises. Each t-shirt is different from the others. Each one carries a certificate of authenticity which assure its uniqueness: there have a little tag, the signature of Alessandro Acerra and the serial number, expressing the good quality and the luxury of each article in order to satisfy even the most exacting collectors. Wearing a HIBU t-shirt tries to give a meaning to each individual, crating a personal fingerprint against the homologation generated by mass production and globalization. Alessandro Acerra personally takes care of all the details, from the concept of his masterpiece to the despatch of the product.

Even the package is excentric as you will receive the 'eco' t-shirts wrapped into “take-away pizza's boxes”. A choice which is not random, but it comes from the artist need of underlining his connection with both Italy and his substainable activity.

The ecological creations of Acerra are then a symbol of those elements which still nowadays represents Italy world-wide as quality and professionality. It derives from the choice of comes from a recycling as well.

陳文祺,現任實踐大學媒體傳達設計學系(所)主任。「偽日記」是陳文祺繼2012年在北美館的「物自體」與海馬迴「物自體 2 Agape」個展後全新系列影像裝置創作。此次將在VT非常廟藝文空間展出數量高達100件的影像裝置,作品懸空浮出牆面,以標本盒凝結影像與文字的圖文日誌,呈現出記憶中的真實時空狀態。作品延續藝術家以往創作脈絡,討論時空與人的存在關係,回應時空與記憶之於人如蟻穴的生物樣態。

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space. This series follows on the concept of the "Flesh is the prison of the soul" series, 100 installation works is suspended in mid-air, allowing a appropriate distance for seeing and reading, the heavy wooden box we see, will in the end be sealed into a mirror finished metal box. Photographic diary with slices of Kyoto, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bangkok, Taipei, confused the viewer of today's digital-oriented world, to what time and period we are looking. Chen Wen-Chi through the act of diary writing, express his feelings and concern with history, each text contain their rational and emotional landscape. If viewers can put aside time constraints, read every diary in space-time, conceptual, logical, speculative point of view, text, language of the work will flow in the current time.

 

Quiet times are real feelings, everything is condensed with time, time and memory entangles. Time and space are not flat images, they can be produced and reproduce, photography is precisely replicated time and space footage, text outline of past experience, large scale duplication quality of lead type, in " Authenticity Temporal Memory" has become specimen like engraved onto the screen. But truth is, even if we think that all is frozen, time has never stopped, all records are unrelated to reality, just a creation of a real past. Artists repeated assess the relations between images and space-time, providing the viewer a composition of images and words under the rule of a conceptual dimension.

“AuthentiCity” is a photography project conceived in cooperation with the School of Visual Arts (SVA), New York, aimed at young international artists who are SVA students or alumni.

 

The project theme – “Revealing purity and authenticity in urban life” – is an invitation to use the straightforward language of photography to explore signs of authenticity and purity in the urban setting.

 

The project began with more than 200 photographers, educated at SVA, who were charged with capturing their vision of urban life. The 19 works selected in the preliminary stage were presented last April in an open exhibition during the Milan Design Week. Five of the 19 photographers, Carlos Alvarez Montero, Igor Aronov, Matthew Baum, Giselle Behrens and Caroline Shepard, were then selected, through a series of juror selections, to continue their work and each received a cash prize of $3000.00. Project winners were then chosen to be featured in the dedicated exhibition at the illy issimo AuthentiCity Lounge in New York.

「若時間是這一片海,我們在記憶中推引與淹沒。」

 

陳文祺,現任實踐大學媒體傳達設計學系(所)主任。「偽日記」是陳文祺繼2012年在北美館的「物自體」與海馬迴「物自體 2 Agape」個展後全新系列影像裝置創作。此次將在VT非常廟藝文空間展出數量高達100件的影像裝置,作品懸空浮出牆面,以標本盒凝結影像與文字的圖文日誌,呈現出記憶中的真實時空狀態。作品延續藝術家以往創作脈絡,討論時空與人的存在關係,回應時空與記憶之於人如蟻穴的生物樣態。

 

在「偽日記」中,藝術家將活版鉛字結合黑白影像,將旅行於五個城市的觀察與內心的感受諸之筆墨的表達方式;在裝置中記錄著無法辨識的時間、空間與不曾存在的真實記憶, 作品體現後設認知(metacognition)如何成形為人為的偽造,影像的作舊感混淆並打破時間感,它從未橫跨過去與未來的視野,也不存在於現在。活版鉛字復刻出墨味與字模,一字一魂的敲打墨印於無酸厚紙,凹陷的墨字詩句是活字的殘留物,文字於紙上的再現與陷痕則提煉出冶字的藝術性與非快的慢品味。

 

在陳文祺的「偽日記」中探討著時間的飄渺與無常性。「偽」人為也,若以人為中心,人為的一切無一真實;過去曾是真理的今天可能成了謬誤,而今天是為謬誤的在明日可能是真理。對於真實,人們早已似回應納西瑟斯(Narcissus)的回聲(echo)中迴響空谷;「偽日記」中對於影像的真實如同記憶的可信度,看似完整與客觀的拍攝,經由書寫,讓時空的思維向度迷失在認知夾縫中。此系列作品完全回應創作者將影像視為「死亡的印記」的一貫創作脈絡,100見裝置懸浮於半空,適切地貼近觀看與閱讀,於此刻你我所觀賞到的時空回音都凝結在每件沈甸甸的木盒中,最終置入鏡面般金屬盒內封印。影像日記中書寫著京都、東京、上海、曼谷、臺北的切片,在今日數位化的介面,古拙的影像與文字顯現方式煙霧化了此刻觀注究竟是何年代。陳文祺透過日記般回數記憶的寫作,將內心感受與對物、我的關注與歷程,皆透過自成一格的筆法遊戲的或抑鬱的敘述回應在每一個鉛字與紙墨的撞擊;每篇文字梳理自身理性及感性的景緻。觀眾若有勇氣拋開時間上的限制,閱讀每一篇日記裡的視點與時空概念,圖、文、語言的邏輯思辨將在觀看作品的當下生津。

 

時間的靜默是真實的感受,萬物與時間是凝結的,弔詭的是時間與記憶糾纏。時間與空間不是扁平的影像,當感知能夠製造與複製,攝影恰是複製時空的影像片段,文字勾畫已過去的感受,而鉛字本為大量複製的特質,在「偽日記」裡成了宛如標本般的印刻在畫面中。然而真實是,即使我們認為這一切的凝結,時間也重來沒有停滯過,一切記錄都是真實無關,只是製造著真實的過去。藝術家反覆辯證著影像和時空關係,將在此複合向度之下提供觀者在影像與冶字的思緒蜂室。

"If time is that sea, we are pushing the lead and lost in the memory."

 

Chen Wen-Chi currently the Chairman of the department of Communication Design at Shih Chien University. "Authenticity Temporal Memory" is a new series of photographic installation works that follows up on Chen Wen Chi’s last two solo exhibitions, "the thing itself" in the Taipei Fine Art Museum and "the thing itself 2 Agape" in Fotoaura institute of photography. The exhibition in VT Artsalon will feature 100 installation works suspended out from the surface of the walls. The specimen boxes are the vessel for images and diary entries, recreating the actual state of time and space for the memory. This series is a continuation of the artist’s previous works; discuss the relationship between time, space and human existence.

 

In “Authenticity Temporal Memory” the artist juxtapose letterpress type with black and white image, using expressive words to presenting the feelings and travel observation of the five cities; in the installation time is not recognized, space and real memory that did not exist, works reflect metacognition, how it become something artificially created, the distressed effect of the image provide a sense of confusion in time, it has never cross the boundaries between past and future not does it exist in the present. Moveable lead types carve out the shape and the feel of ink, hitting and printing out one character at a time onto on acid-free card, verses of character depressed in ink are the remains of movable type. The texts reproduced on paper are the artistic marks and the aesthetics of “non-fast”

 

“Authenticity Temporal Memory” explores the ephemeral and impermanence. "False" is manmade, nothing is real in anything manmade; the truth in the past may become a fallacy today, the fallacy of today may be the truth of tomorrow. Toward reality people already seem to respond with a narcissus voice echoing in the Valley; “Authenticity Temporal Memory” is true to image as the credibility of memory, seemingly objective shooting after writing, once again become lost in the cracks of time and space.
