三影堂攝影藝術中心將於二零零八年三月一日（週六）下午三時參加“外象——三影堂青年攝影藝術家聯展”開幕酒會，同時啟動“三影堂攝影獎”。
The Three Shadows Photography Art Centre cordially invites you to the opening cocktail of "Ourward Expressions, Inward Reflections," a group show of young photographers, and the launch of the "Three Shadows Photography Award," at 3pm on Saturday, March 1, 2008.
三影堂攝影藝術中心繼推出館藏中國當代和國外經典攝影作品展“對流”之後，又迎來了2008年的第一個展覽。三影堂計劃每年的第一個展覽重點關注中國當代攝影的新生力量，同時舉辦一年一度的“三影堂攝影獎”新人評選活動。該計劃旨在以開闊而具有深度的學術思想為基礎，以對當代攝影獨立的認識和判斷為出發點，在不斷涌現的新潮流和新趨勢中選取具有獨立精神和藝術潛質的藝術家和作品，對當代攝影的最新動態進行考察、梳理和研究；同時以專業製作、評論、展覽和出版的方式，加以整合和推廣，將中國當代攝影的最新成就介紹給廣大公眾，扶植和支援新人藝術家，進而推動中國當代攝影的健康發展。
將於2008年3月1日開幕的題為“外象”的攝影群展包括了四位年輕攝影藝術家：阿鬥，蔡衛東，盧彥鵬，丘。他們的作品的魅力來源於藝術家對攝影媒介的深層理解，以及對當代藝術以至社會現實的獨立態度。
與時下反映年輕攝影藝術家的展覽和書籍大都專注于年輕一代的自我和都市生活的傾向不同，“外象”中的藝術家們將他們的視點放到了更為廣闊的空間。這些影像從藝術的角度對公共空間以及地域和歷史作出了富於色彩的演繹。
該展覽開幕當日，將同時啟動“三影堂攝影獎”的作品徵集與評選活動。首屆“三影堂攝影獎”專注于中國當代攝影的新面貌，面向攝影新人，無年齡限制，作品徵集時間為2008年3月1日至11月30日。經由三影堂顧問團和特邀藝術家組成的評審委員會充分了解和甄選後，産生的候選人將進入次年初舉辦的三影堂新人展，同時舉行終審評選和頒獎活動，獎項設年度新人大獎一名和優秀獎若干名。“三影堂攝影獎”計劃每年舉辦一次，同時配合有專業製作、評論、策展和出版等系統化活動。
Following “Convection,” an exhibition of the Three Shadows Photography Art Centre’s permanent collection of Chinese and international works, we welcome “Outward Expressions, Inward Reflections,” an annual showcase of the new strengths of contemporary photography in China. We are also pleased to announce the launch of the first annual “Three Shadows Photography Award,” a juried competition for young Chinese photographers. The exhibition and award are founded on an independent understanding of contemporary photography, selecting from emerging trends artists that display a spirit of individuality and artistic potential. The exhibition introduces the newest achievements of contemporary Chinese photography to a broad audience and supports emerging artists while promoting the development of contemporary photography in China.
Opening on March 1, 2008, “Outward Expressions, Inward Reflections” features four young photographers, Adou, Cai Weidong, Lu Yanpeng and Qiu. The appeal of their work comes from each artist’s deep understanding of the photographic medium and unique attitude toward contemporary art and social reality. Recent exhibitions and books that feature young photographers have mainly focused on the young generation’s different views of the self and urban life. The artists of “Outward Expressions, Inward Reflections,” however, have a broader perspective. Their images reveal a distinct artistic interpretation of public space, region, and history.
The opening of this exhibition also marks the initiation of the “Three Shadows Photography Award” juried competition. The first “Three Shadows Photography Award” focuses on the new faces of Chinese contemporary photography and is open to new photographers regardless of age.
The call for submissions lasts from March 1 to November 30, 2008. A selection committee comprised of the Three Shadows Advisory Board and specially invited artists will select the finalists, who will then be featured in the Young Photographers Exhibition in the Spring of the following year. The final review process will take place during the exhibition and will honor a Newcomer of the Year Grand Prize Award and multiple Awards of Excellence. The “Three Shadows Photography Award” competition will be held once a year, supplementing the systematic and professional production, publishing, criticism, and curatorial work of the centre.
