Art and Academic Lecture Series No.22 : “Doing Art, Do What?”

藝術與學術系列講壇之二十二: “做藝術是在做什麼”

藝術家徐冰 2017 年在澳門藝術博物館舉辦個展《徐冰的文字》時，正值他的首部實驗影像作品《蜻蜓之眼》創作中，所以很遺憾未能在個展中呈現給澳門的觀眾們。在這 7 年間，可以說世界正經歷前所未有的混沌，新技術的湧現、概念的反覆運算、命名的重構，人類積累數千年的文明體系開始失效，迫使每個人站在同一起跑線上重新思考。

徐冰曾言，其實藝術這東西它是在滑動中的，是抓不住的，它的特性是社會在變，它就變。而藝術家作為“愛想事情的手藝人”，在工作室的實踐中不斷打磨思想，試圖用獨特的形式化解時代的困惑。此次受澳門大學邀請，徐冰將帶著自己當下對藝術的思考為澳門大學的師生們分享：做藝術是在做什麼？

In 2017, when the Macao Museum of Art presented the solo exhibition Xu Bing: Language Art, the artist was deeply engaged in the creation of his first experimental film Dragonfly Eyes. Regrettably, the work could not be shown to audiences in Macao at that time.Over the past seven years, the world has entered a state of unprecedented turbulence: the rapid emergence of new technologies, the constant reconfiguration of concepts, and the reshaping of naming systems have all rendered much of humanity’s millennia-old cultural framework ineffective, compelling everyone to rethink from the same starting point.

Xu Bing once remarked that art is inherently fluid and elusive, always shifting as society itself changes. For him, the artist is an “artisan of thought,” one who refines ideas through studio practice and seeks to confront the perplexities of the age with unique forms.

Invited by the University of Macau, Xu Bing will now share with its professors and students his current reflections on art through the talk: Doing Art, Do What?
