陳麗雲（香港）個展：編織對話 北京
2008年9月7日- 2008年10月31日
香港藝術家陳麗雲在北京的首個藝術項目開幕式將於2008年9月7日下午2點至6點舉行，敬請光臨！
北京藝門畫廊很高興為陳麗雲舉辦她在北京的首次個展。
陳麗雲創作的主要工具是雜誌和碎紙機。她的工作涉及一個簡單的動作：把成千上萬切割廢舊雜誌而來的碎紙條編織成不同的結構體、服裝和容器。陳麗雲進行行為藝術表演、也製作時裝和各種建築結構體。她用碎紙機將印刷媒介轉換成有如紡織原料般可用的材料，再不辭辛勞地將這些雜誌的碎片編織起來。
切碎和編織雜誌這個簡單的行為裏包含了陳麗雲對消費文化的挑釁和抵制。通過將廢舊消費品轉換成藝術表達的新形式這種迴圈利用的過程，陳麗雲含蓄地提出了一個問題：“這些雜誌在何時何地還能再派上用場？”她的那種編織和重構的藝術實踐質問著雜誌的原有語言，將它們承載的資訊顛覆為一種“閱讀”印刷媒介的另類方法。
陳麗雲將用一組與藝術有關但用不同語言出版、來自不同文化背景的雜誌為她在“北京藝門”的第一個項目創作一個大型的建築結構體。這件作品將環繞展廳一週，將展廳的物理空間包圍起來--就像陳麗雲在早期行為藝術作品中曾用她“可穿的藝術”和“身體容器”將自己的身體包裹起來那樣。
陳麗雲在香港生活和工作。她畢業于皇家墨爾本理工大學，曾在倫敦時裝學院學習時裝設計。她同時也是香港的一位獨立策展人。

Movana Chen (Hong Kong) Solo Project: Two-Way Communication Beijing
September 7 – October 31, 2008
Opening Reception for Hong Kong artist Movana Chen’s first solo project in Beijing: September 7, 2008, from 2 to 6 pm. ALL WELCOME!
Pékin Fine Arts is pleased to present Movana Chen’s first solo exhibition in Beijing.
Movana Chen’s main art production tools are magazines and the shredding machine. Her work involves the simple act of knitting thousands of shreds of otherwise disposable magazine paper together into various structures, clothing and containers. Movana produces performances and fashion and architectural structures using the paper-shredding machine to transform print media into a useful textile-like material, and then painstakingly knits the magazine shreds together.
Movana’s simple act of shredding and knitting magazines is in itself a defiant act of resistance to consumer culture. By recycling disposable consumer commodities into new forms of artistic expression, she implicitly asks the question, “Where and when are magazines still useful?” Her art practice of knitting and reconstructing questions the original language of the magazines, subverting their message in an alternative means of “reading” print media.
For her first project at Pékin Fine Arts, Ms. Chen will create a monumental structure using an assortment of art related magazines of various languages and cultural backgrounds. Movana’s structure will envelope the contours and physical space of the Pékin Fine Arts gallery space, in much the same way her “wearable art” and “body containers” have encased her own body in earlier performances.
Movana Chen lives and works in Hong Kong. She graduated from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University and studied fashion design at the London College of Fashion. She also works as an independent curator in Hong Kong.
