陈丽云（香港）个展：编织对话 北京
2008年9月7日- 2008年10月31日
香港艺术家陈丽云在北京的首个艺术项目开幕式将于2008年9月7日下午2点至6点举行，敬请光临！
北京艺门画廊很高兴为陈丽云举办她在北京的首次个展。
陈丽云创作的主要工具是杂志和碎纸机。她的工作涉及一个简单的动作：把成千上万切割废旧杂志而来的碎纸条编织成不同的结构体、服装和容器。陈丽云进行行为艺术表演、也制作时装和各种建筑结构体。她用碎纸机将印刷媒介转换成有如纺织原料般可用的材料，再不辞辛劳地将这些杂志的碎片编织起来。
切碎和编织杂志这个简单的行为里包含了陈丽云对消费文化的挑衅和抵制。通过将废旧消费品转换成艺术表达的新形式这种循环利用的过程，陈丽云含蓄地提出了一个问题：“这些杂志在何时何地还能再派上用场？”她的那种编织和重构的艺术实践质问着杂志的原有语言，将它们承载的信息颠覆为一种“阅读”印刷媒介的另类方法。
陈丽云将用一组与艺术有关但用不同语言出版、来自不同文化背景的杂志为她在“北京艺门”的第一个项目创作一个大型的建筑结构体。这件作品将环绕展厅一周，将展厅的物理空间包围起来--就像陈丽云在早期行为艺术作品中曾用她“可穿的艺术”和“身体容器”将自己的身体包裹起来那样。
陈丽云在香港生活和工作。她毕业于皇家墨尔本理工大学，曾在伦敦时装学院学习时装设计。她同时也是香港的一位独立策展人。

Pékin Fine Arts:
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.
