展览介绍
“阿拉克收藏视角 —— 非洲当代艺术展” 精心筹备了三大别具一格的策展单元。这些展览主题诞生于 2023 年 ARAK 策展奖学金计划,围绕非洲身份、社会变迁以及未来愿景展开深度探讨。
在《解构无止尽》中,Jamil Osmar Paraso设想了一个非洲未来的景观,邀请观众进入具有推测性的世界,其中非洲的韧性和身份塑造了未来的新可能性。
在《破茧》中,Nneoma Angela Okorie探索了转型,她以三位艺术家的作品为切入点,这些艺术家将个人经历和集体记忆融入创作,形成独特的视觉语言,打破常规发展路径。
在《一成不变的地理版图》中,E.N. Mirembe着眼于东非艺术持续不断的跨文化交流,探寻跨越殖民边界的文化影响。展览通过艺术、贸易、教育等层面,展现出丰富的文化交流传承。以Lucille Clifton的诗《For the lame》为核心,E.N. Mirembe挑战了固定地理的概念,展出的艺术作品,生动展现了东非与中东及其他地区紧密相连、充满活力的交流历史。
这些主题展览共同从多个角度,审视当代非洲艺术中的文化传承、变革发展以及丰富的创造力,为我们打开了一扇了解非洲艺术的独特窗口。
“Perspectives from the ARAK Collection——African Contemporary Art Exhibition” brings together three distinct curatorial projects—developed in 2023 as part of ARAK’s Curatorial Fellowship Programme—that examine, among other things, African identities, movements and imagined futures.
Jamil Osmar Parasol’s Split Infinity envisions an Afro-futurist landscape, inviting viewers into speculative worlds where African resilience and identity shape new possibilities for the future.
In Beyond the Chrysalis, Nneoma Angela Okorie explores transformation, following the work of three artists who develop visual languages rooted in personal histories and collective memory, defying linear paths.
In The Geography of Fixed Things, E.N. Mirembe focuses on East African art’s continuous cross-cultural exchanges, tracing influences that transcend colonial borders. This exhibition emphasises a rich legacy of connection through art, trade, and education. Referencing Lucille Clifton’s poem, “for the lame”, Mirembe challenges the notion of a fixed geography, presenting artworks that reflect East Africa’s vibrant and interconnected histories with the Middle East and further afield.
Together, these three exhibitions offer a layered examination of heritage, transformation and creative imagination within contemporary African art. ... 展开
