Du Zhenjun

Babel

Il primo sinonimo di disordine che compare sul dizionario è babele, con la lettera minuscola
Du Zhenjun trasforma il mondo in una nuova torre di Babele, ma non pensate che questa Terra lo sia già? Non c’è già troppo disordine, ingiustizia e incomprensione?
Il primo sinonimo di disordine che compare sul dizionario è babele, con la lettera minuscola. E nemmeno a farlo apposta tutte le conseguenze della confusione voluta da Dio sono qui, come a giustificare questo aggettivo. Incarniamo la superbia e la supremazia sul mondo, lo stesso che Egli voleva che abitassimo.
Nelle immagini proposte da Du Zhenjun osserviamo una composizione standard: al centro è sempre presente un’interpretazione della Torre, varie forme, varie strutture, varie visioni. Poi tutt’intorno aleggia un’atmosfera grigia, l’atmosfera della realtà. Un ammasso di cose, persone e edifici. Sono parti di fotografie, o meglio di reportage giornalistici, di guerra e non solo.
L’origine della fonte di luce non la individuiamo, è nell’aria: tutto è illuminato, come nelle stampe composite di fine ottocento, antenate del fotomontaggio.

Frank & Jamie

Artista contemporâneo italiano, autodidata, nasceu em Pádua em 1960 e atualmente mora em Nova York. A sua proposta artística situa-se entre a escultura e a performance (acção artística onde um artista ou grupo de artistas participa com a utilização do corpo como elemento escultórico “vivo” perante o público), atuando principalmente no género da instalação. O senso de humor e a transgressão dos símbolos consagrados constituem suas principais armas expressivas. Em exposição no MOMA de Nova York em 1998, fez com que um ator vestido de Picasso, usando uma máscara que caricaturava o rosto do pintor, cumprimentasse os visitantes no estilo Disney World, uma forma de chamar a atenção para a inércia mercantil e espetacular da arte contemporânea . A ironia com o mundo da arte não se propõe a subverter um sistema do qual ele faz parte, mas antes parecem ser formas de insubordinação aos valores e regras da sociedade contemporânea, sem que isso o leve a assumir morais precisas ou precisas posições ideológicas. A mensagem parece ser que você pode sobreviver e usar o sistema sem ser consumido por ele. Frank e Jamie. Foi interpretado como uma imagem invertida de poder e uma afirmação sobre a sedução da autoridade.

the un-built
提案は、エル・リシツキーのさまざまな作品を反映した記念碑を設立することです。目的は、3次元構造で空間と奥行きの概念を知覚できるようにすることです。このシステムは、空虚さ、深さ、投影を明らかにするためのツールになります…
最初に、このシステムは不在、言い換えれば未構築を明らかにすることを提案します。ウォルケンブルーゲルはエルリシツキーの最も有名なプロジェクトの1つですが、残念ながら身体的な症状はありません。このプロジェクトは、wolkenbrugelのサイズに一致する3次元の直交グリッドで構成されています。次に、成形の方法で差し引くことにより、物理的にそれ自体を再構築することなく、エル・リシツキープロジェクトの空間的存在を再構築します。架空のプロジェクトは見えないが知覚できるままです。この刻印から、記念碑の仮想投影を完了するのは訪問者の想像力です。
夜になると、光のネットワークがウォルケンブルーゲルの仮想輪郭を明らかにします。構造全体に分布する輝点は、招待されたアーティストの介入を動的にサポートするものでもあります。
2番目のステップでは、フレームはグラフィックラインのステージングの構造的サポートです。エル・リシツキーが最もよく使う色である赤く塗られたさまざまな構造要素が、それぞれの視点に応じて独自のグラフィック構成を作成します。一緒に空間に配置されたこれらの赤い線は、さまざまなグラフィック構成を形成します。変位によって、訪問者はこれらの構成を構築および分解し、深さを表示します。これらの赤い線はスペースを定義します。

Lenin Sculpture
Miss Mao (Trying To Poise Herself At The Top of Lenin’s Head)

Œuvre des frères Gao de Chine, la sculpture de Lénine est une autre pièce dans leur progression de l’art provocateur. Les artistes ont inclus plusieurs éléments qui montrent cette figure controversée sous un nouveau jour pour le monde de l’art. Avec une finition chromée vive, la sculpture en métal est construite à partir de sections horizontales qui ont été délibérément décalées pour constituer cette ressemblance très inspirante du dictateur russe impitoyable Vladimir Lénine. En tant que personne bien connue, la décision des artistes de donner à son visage une finition chromée détourne l’attention de Lénine et du contexte de la sculpture en permettant aux réflexions de mettre en évidence l’environnement immédiat au lieu de Lénine d’une manière convenablement dégradante. Les sections décalées représentent son héritage brisé et destructeur qui a provoqué tant de troubles en Russie. Au sommet se trouve une inclusion très ludique de bébé tenant un bâton d’équilibre au-dessus de la tête saillante de Lénine, comme s’il marchait sur une corde raide de ses idéaux marxistes désastreux et risqués.

designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, Ross Lovegrove and Daniel Widrig

Bow is the latest result of the extensive, ongoing research that ZHA is conducting within the domains of 3D printing and material experimentation.The chair combines pristine design informed by structural optimisation processes typically found in nature, with innovative materials and the most advanced fabrication methods. The pattern and the colour gradient concur in redefining the traditional spatial relationship between furniture and its setting.

STARGATE

Roland Emmerich
In 1994, Egyptologist and linguist Daniel Jackson, Ph.D., is invited by Catherine Langford to translate Egyptian hieroglyphs on cover stones, also known as casing stones, that her father had unearthed in Giza, Egypt, in 1928. Jackson is taken to a U.S. Air Force installation and told by its commander, Special Operations Colonel Jack O’Neil, that the project is classified information. Jackson determines that the hieroglyphs refer to a “stargate” which uses constellations as spatial coordinates. On this revelation, Jackson is shown that the base has this Stargate, also discovered by Langford’s father. They use Jackson’s coordinates to align the Stargate’s metal ring with markings along its outside, and once all seven are locked in, a wormhole opens, connecting the Stargate with a distant planet. Jackson joins O’Neil and his team, consisting of Reilly, Porro, Freeman, Brown, Ferretti, and Kawalsky, as they pass through the wormhole.
CINEMA

MONA VATAMANU & FLORIN TUDOR

Widely shown in Europe, Vatamanu and Tudor’s artistic practice involves bringing history into the present tense, whether in the form of performative re-enactment or symbolic recuperation. A deep interest in architecture as a repository of both personal and collective memory and as a mark of communist power underlies many of their projects

DNA REAL-TIME SPEED

DNA (genes)

A gene is a sequence of DNA that contains genetic information and can influence the phenotype of an organism. Within a gene, the sequence of bases along a DNA strand defines a messenger RNA sequence, which then defines one or more protein sequences. The relationship between the nucleotide sequences of genes and the amino-acid sequences of proteins is determined by the rules of translation, known collectively as the genetic code. The genetic code consists of three-letter ‘words’ called codons formed from a sequence of three nucleotides.

Impression: São Paulo – Taiwan

This is a silent video of colors sourced from São Paulo, which #FFFF00 have never been to, photos found on the Internet. While Impressionists painted outdoors in order to capture “the realistic scenes outside the studio,” today’s artists no longer do this — for the world now comes to us in the form of image. The work highlights this mediated reality, evoking the impression of the place with a hypnotic atmosphere.

BIO

#FFFF00 is imagining another art. Her mi̍h-kiānn swings between joke and protest against institutions. With appropriation, multiplicity and low-budget as main tools, strives to pave the way for outsiders. Graduated from National Taiwan University of Arts, has participated in group exhibitions in Asia, Europe, and America.
