C- Space is pleased to present “Strategies for Concealing”, an international group exhibition curated by Maria Rus Bojan.
The exhibition will display over 30 pieces from 15 artists from Argentina, The Netherlands, England, Romania, Israel and China, including newly created work.
Bringing together this international group of artists, many of whom are showing in a Chinese context for the first time, the exhibition “Strategies for Concealing” proposes an investigation on how artists produce new meanings by using, appropriating or subverting camouflage techniques and practices.
The exhibition intends to question what the role of concealment is and how it manifests itself in a time where everything around us is becoming more invisible. Examples abound, from military advances to financial institutions and the movements of capital to nano-technology and bio-cybernetics.
Rather than de-cloaking that which was once camouflaged, the works presented in this exhibition accentuate the contradictions that result at the intersection of various strategies of concealment, pointing with irony to excessive “concealing for concealments sake” techniques and making more visible emerging visual incongruities.
Spanning ideas from scientific and technological camouflage to techniques employed by the military, from biology to aesthetics, the artists invited offer a dialectical response to the question of what camouflage means right now.
In conjunction with this exhibition an extensive catalogue will be published that will offer further debate on the artistic survey of this topic.
The exhibition has been made possible with the support of: Galerie Martin Van Zomeren Amsterdam, Galerie RonMandos Amsterdam/ Rotterdam, MB Art Agency Amsterdam, carlier/gebauer Berlin, Project Stichting Amsterdam

C空間在此榮幸地推出由瑪瑞亞·如斯·波堅(jiān)策劃的名為“隱蔽的策略”的國(guó)際性展覽。
本次展覽將展出分別來(lái)自阿根廷、荷蘭、英國(guó)、羅馬尼亞、以色列以及中國(guó)的15位藝術(shù)家的30多件作品。其中一些作品是新近創(chuàng)作的。
本次展覽匯聚了來(lái)自世界各國(guó)的藝術(shù)家，他們中的許多人是第一次來(lái)到中國(guó)參展。舉辦“隱蔽的策略”展覽的目的是了解藝術(shù)家們?nèi)绾瓮ㄟ^(guò)運(yùn)用、假借或擯棄隱蔽技巧及做法來(lái)演繹新的內(nèi)涵。
本次展覽旨在詰問(wèn)隱蔽的作用究竟是什么，以及在這樣一個(gè)我們周?chē)囊磺凶兊迷絹?lái)越隱秘的時(shí)代，隱蔽是如何表現(xiàn)自己的。從軍事進(jìn)步到金融機(jī)構(gòu)及資本的流動(dòng)，從納米技術(shù)到生物控制論……這樣的例子比比皆是。
本次參展的作品不是要掀開(kāi)過(guò)去曾被隱蔽的東西的外殼，而是要突出不同隱藏策略的交錯(cuò)所產(chǎn)生的矛盾，嘲諷過(guò)度的“為隱蔽而隱蔽”技巧，以及剖析新近出現(xiàn)的視覺(jué)不協(xié)調(diào)現(xiàn)象。
跨越從科技隱蔽到軍隊(duì)所運(yùn)用的技巧、從生物到美學(xué)等各種領(lǐng)域的理念，受邀藝術(shù)家們對(duì)“什么才是隱蔽的最新含義”的問(wèn)題作出了回答。
本次展覽的相關(guān)畫(huà)冊(cè)也即將出版，畫(huà)冊(cè)中將繼續(xù)就本話題的藝術(shù)審視進(jìn)行討論。
本次展覽承蒙以下各方的支持：阿姆斯特丹的馬丁·凡·佐莫林畫(huà)廊、阿姆斯特丹/鹿特丹的朗·曼多斯畫(huà)廊、阿姆斯特丹MB藝術(shù)中心、柏林的卡里亞/戈保爾畫(huà)廊以及阿姆斯特丹的斯提克廷項(xiàng)目組。
