Looking Awry
This is a show that releases contemporary Chinese art from the usual historical, social, political, and cultural concepts; it aims to return to the individual, return to the basics. As the title 鈥淟ooking Awry鈥 entails, this exhibition hope to achieve the sudden emotional shiver among its audiences through the pure visual expressions of intense emotional impulse and precipitation of memories.
The 鈥渁wry鈥 used in 鈥淟ooking Awry鈥 is in reference to Slavoj 沤i啪ek, the most influential ideologist of contemporary cultural. The phrase 鈥淐ontemporary Art鈥 appears to be an extremely glamorous label, but if we try to perceive it in another way perhaps it could remind us of the various anxiety and deviation of both spirit and culture.Contemporary artworks seemed to be very straightforward, naked and integrated,inviting the public to comprehend and appreciate. However, behind the artworks there hid the artists鈥 secret intention and anxiety, which ther refuse to be completely comprehended by the public. This part that could not be comprehended is precisely the emotional mechanism of the phrase 鈥渁wry鈥,and this is also the reason why contemporary Chinese art could continue to vibrantly flourish.
