私密革命

Private Becomes Public

在社會轉變的浪潮中,一場革命風暴席捲藝術世界,人們運用藝術表達他們的情感、思想和生命敘事。

這種變革使藝術成為揭示私人故事的一種方式,模糊了個人和公共之間的界線。

因此,藝術演變成一種強大的工具,通過它,私人被引入公共領域。

Amidst societal transformations, a revolution sweeps through the art world as individuals harness art to articulate their emotions, thoughts, and life narratives. This change makes art a way to unveil private stories, blurring the boundaries between the personal and the public. Consequently, art evolves into a powerful instrument through which the private is brought into the public sphere.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

Yarema Malashchuk和Roman Khimei通過呈現自己的身體置身於喀爾巴阡山脈的景觀中,創作了一系列舞台化的影像。以不自然的姿勢靜靜躺在那裡,穿著徒步旅行服裝,他們似乎在問我們:螢幕上到底描繪了誰?在《The Wanderer》(2022)中,藝術家們暗示了俄羅斯士兵的屍體,就像軍事攝影師的影像中所見,卻沒有直接談論。在軍事戰術和策略中也沒有坦率:2014年,一些俄羅斯武裝分子聲稱他們去烏克蘭不是為了戰鬥而是渡假;今天他們稱自己在訓練時迷路了。

Yarema Malashchuk and Roman Khimei work with staged images that show their own bodies in the landscape of the Carpathian Mountains. Lying still in unnatural positions, dressed in trekking clothes, they seem to ask us: who is depicted on the screen? In The Wanderer (2022), the artists allude to the corpses of Russian soldiers, as seen in the images by military photographers, without talking about it openly. There is no candor in military tactics and strategies either: in 2014 some Russian militants claimed that they went to Ukraine not to fight but on vacation; today that they got lost while training.

【導演簡介|DIRECTOR PROFILE】

自2013年以來,基輔的藝術家兼電影製片人Roman Khimei和Yarema Malashchuk一直在視覺藝術和電影的交界合作。他們在烏克蘭基輔的螢幕藝術學院以攝影師身份畢業。著重於額外角色的作品與帝國主義的神話進行交流。他們獲得了PinchukArtCentre Prize(2020年)的主要獎,VISIO Young Talent Acquisition Prize(2021年),以及Young Ukrainian Artists Award(MUHi 2019)的大獎。他們的首部紀錄片《New Jerusalem》在Docudays UA IFF 2020首映,並獲得了Kharkiv MeetDocs的特別提及獎。這對二人還參與了Future Generation Art Prize 2021,參與了Haus der Kunst、Baltic Triennial 14、Gothenburg Biennial、Kyiv Biennial、M HKA、Albertinum、HMKW Dortmund、Museum Morsbroich等群展。他們的錄像作品被Frac Bretagne、Fondazione In Between Art Film Rome、Antwerp當代藝術博物館和Liechtenstein藝術博物館的收藏。Yarema和Roman是Prykarpattian Theater的成員,這是一個最近成立的藝術小組,他們創建了《希望與期望劇院》項目,該項目在2023年威尼斯建築雙年展期間在烏克蘭館進行了展示。

Collaborating at the edge of visual art and cinema since 2013, Kyiv-based artists and filmmakers, Roman Khimei and Yarema Malashchuk graduated as cinematographers from the Institute of Screen Arts in Kyiv, Ukraine. Focusing on the role of the extra, their works engage with imperialist mythologies.

在塞內加爾國際貿易中心(CICES)的場地上,自1974年以來,每年都舉辦達喀爾國際博覽會。這部電影透過這個標誌性活動以及貫穿該場地生活的所有其他商業、文化和政治活動,向我們介紹了一座現代主義建築的傑作,並與日常生活的寧靜形成對比。一個敘事浮現,透過無形的存在喚起了這個地方複雜的歷史,其中巫術主義、現代主義、獨立和後殖民遺產緊密交織在一起。

On the site of the International Centre for Foreign Trade of Senegal (CICES), the Dakar International Fair has been held annually since 1974. The film introduces us to a masterpiece of modernist architecture through this flagship event and all the other commercial, cultural and political activities that punctuate the life of the site and contrast with the calm of daily life. A narrative emerges, with invisible presences that evoke the complex history of the place, where animism, modernism, independence and post-colonial heritage are intertwined.

對應力量

Antipode

生命,就像藝術一樣,是一幅被對立力量和對比塗鴉的畫布。從大自然的和平之美到社會的複雜性,這些差異塑造了我們

的生活。透過藝術的鏡頭,我們踏上了一段揭示光明與黑暗、希望與絕望交錯的旅程。

從大自然的寧靜到社會的挑戰,我們了解到生命的本質在對比中顯露出來。

Life, much like art, is a canvas painted with opposing forces and contrasts. From the peaceful beauty of nature to the complexities of society, these differences shape our lives. Through the lens of art, we embark on a journey that unveils the interplay between light and darkness, hope and despair. From the calmness of nature to the challenges of society, we learn that the essence of life is revealed in contrast.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

影像以追尋Olonyok(Tano Bora 獵豹兄弟組合團員,)為引子,以追尋它的蹤跡而展開的保育園區田野紀錄。創作者以追隨者的角度,直觀且視觸地連動出原野中動物的行動痕跡。從而延展出景框以外動物的棲息場域、人與動物關係的延展討論,也由此直觀的視觸野生動物的命運狀態。

The Tano Bora, meaning ‘The Magnificent Five’ in Swahili, was the famed cheetah coalition here in the Masai Mara—captivating observers with their stealth, strategy, and striking beauty. The artist follows one of the cheetahs from the perspective of a follower, intuitively and visually connecting the traces of movement in the wilderness. The body image is used as a means of creation to extend the habitat of the animals beyond the frame. In this way, the cycle of "life and death" is explored, thus visually touching the traces of the fate of wild animals.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

《納博依所》(Naboisho)是一場對于自然界的呼喚,一個重新認識土地、動物和生態的旅程。通過田野的方式,我們紀錄並追蹤每日野生動物的蹤跡,深入了解它們的生存狀態。這片土地承受著集體牧場所帶來的壓力,但同時也承載著無盡的生命力量。并把這片獻給所有在保育區工作的人,那些建設和保護者們,以及土地上所有奔跑著的生物。這是一個關於和諧共處的故事,一個關於人類與自然和諧相處的呼喚。

Naboisho, which means “coming together” in the Maasai’s Maa language, is a community response to the challenges of the privatization of group ranches in the Greater Mara Region. Strain was put on the soil, endemic vegetation, and the wildlife because of intensive herding and various tourism activities such as camping and off-road vehicle activity. I use a field diary to record and track the daily tracks of wild animals and their survival status. In this way, I re-learn about the land, the animals, and the ecology. This film is dedicated to all those who work, build, and protect the conservation areas, and all the creatures that run on the land.

透過鮮為人知的檔案和他典型的電影分析,馬克·庫辛思(Mark Cousins)講述了法西斯主義在意大利的崛起以及其在1930年代歐洲的影響。這既是一部試論式電影,也是一份歷史文件,庫辛思通過現在的視角將歷史置於背景中,將鏡子對準了一個逐漸崛起的極右翼和被操縱媒體的政治風景。

Through little-seen archive and his characteristically cinematic analysis, Mark Cousins narrates the ascent of fascism in Italy and its fall-out across 1930s Europe. Both essay film and historical document, Cousins contextualises history through the now, holding a mirror to a political landscape of a creeping far right and manipulated media.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

這部16毫米的影片是在聖塔克雷谷的一次駐地研究期間進行的成果。根據藝術家的說法,“這是一次仔細思考的相遇的翻譯。這是一種閱讀細微之處、凝視眼神、用心聆聽環境沙沙聲的相遇。一種成為一體的應用草圖。一種最平凡的相遇,既身體的、反思的、共生的,也是處於特定情境中的。作為版本故事的翻頁,它們包含在它們的簡單性、持久性和延續性中。一種時空,讓每一個過程中所建議的東西成為現實。接受主觀性的提議,一次又一次地更新我們所看到的方式,更新每個姿勢及其脈搏,以編織線條的形式。在選定的交錯路徑上認識行者的狀態。”

通過藝術家與環境之間的共存,他們創造了一部直接而詩意的電影,其中環境元素,深入了解,揭示了它們的共生狀態;換句話說,它們被呈現為相互關聯和相互依存,其中一些元素照顧著其他元素。影像與藝術家先前分享的閱讀片段對話,以反映有關生命體的這種共生狀態。

This 16 mm film piece is the result of research carried out during a residence in the Vall de Santa Creu. According to the artists “it is a translation of an encounter that thinks carefully. One that reads between the lines, looks into the eyes, listens to the rustle of the environment with attention. An applied sketch of becoming-one-with. A sketch, from the most mundane, of an encounter, physical, reflective, symbiotic and situated. A turning of pages as versions of stories that are contained in their simplicity, in their duration and continuation. A space-time to become what is suggested in each passage. An acceptance of the proposal of subjectivity, updating again and again the way in which one who is presented to us is received, updating each gesture and its pulse, in the weaving of string figures. Recognizing the condition of walkers on selected intertwined paths".

From coexistence - between both artists and the environment - they create a film of direct yet poetic language, where the elements of the environment, well known in depth, reveal their condition of symbiosis; that is to say, they are shown as interrelated and interdependent, taking care of some elements of others. The images dialogue with fragments of the readings that the artists had previously shared in order to reflect on this symbiotic condition of beings.

民國40-60年代在嘉義大林戲院、酒家、茶室及旅社相繼興起,大林有「小北投」之封號。當時小姐來自全國各地,為了維持家庭經濟,來大林來找工作,曾造就當時地方經濟繁榮,但對不少的大林人而言,卻是一段既愛又恨的記憶。透過不同觀點的訪談與觀察,「小北投」的故事,讓我們看見當時年代台灣女性為家庭犧牲展現的生命韌性…

From the 1940s to the 1960s in the Republic of China, Dalin theaters, restaurants, teahouses and hotels sprang up in Chiayi. Dalin was known as "Little Beitou," and at that time, young ladies came to Dalin from all over the country to find work in order to maintain their family's economy. While this made the local economy prosperous at that time, for many Dalin people, it was a memory that was both loved and hated.

夢的語言提醒我們,所謂的「真實」早已經過心智的運作與轉換,然而夢境之中與真實之間存在的落差,是否又提醒著什麼......

透過作夢者描述夢境的過程,以及追隨他人的記憶回顧以重構事件。畫面的選擇來自真實情節,在真實與虛幻交織的情境中,打造一種似是而非的狀態,形塑已逝者那份既存在又不存在的形象。

The language of dreams reminds us that the "reality" has long undergone the workings and transformations of the mind. However, the disparities between the dream world and reality may serve as a reminder of something profound.

Through the dreamer's narration of the dream process and retracing events by following others' memories, the selection of scenes originates from real-life situations. In the interweaving of reality and illusion, a state of seeming truth yet non-truth is crafted, shaping the image of the departed as both present and absent.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

古今哲學探討的一大重點始終在於:人如何確定自己的存在不是一場虛幻?然而長期受困於免疫疾病的患者對於生活或甚至是生存的寄託反而可能建立於,會不會身體或是感知的痛苦其實只是一種幻象或是夢境?

從「牽亡」的概念為發想,將免疫疾病比喻為一場自己與己身身體的長期抗戰,於戰爭中死亡的亡靈透過凝視生前的記憶切片,重新檢視與探索生命、存在如何在始終流動與不穩定的狀態下,與其共存與找到平衡。

One major focus of philosophical inquiry has been: how can individuals determine that their existence is not an illusion? However, for those enduring chronic immune diseases, reliance on life might paradoxically hinge on whether the pain is merely a dream.

Inspired by the concept of khan-bông(a traditional taiwanese ritual) likening immune diseases to a prolonged battle against one's own body, the spirits of those who die in this war revisit fragments of their memories to re-examine and explore how life and existence coexist and find balance amid perpetual flux and instability.

細碎生命

Pulverizing Lives

生命就像一個拼圖,由許多散落在各處的片段和時刻組成。

有時候,我們需要藝術幫助我們把這些片段拼湊在一起,造出完整的畫面。

藝術使我們凝視生活的現實,且理解生命中每個片段的含義。

通過用藝術探索生活的碎片,我們可以在日常生活中找到美好和意義。

Life is like a puzzle, made up of many pieces and moments scattered everywhere. Sometimes, we need art to help us put these pieces together and see the bigger picture. Art allows us to gaze upon the reality of life, helping us understand the significance of each fragment in life better. By using art to explore life's fragments, we can find beauty and meaning in the everyday life.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

紀錄片傳主林義方(1926-2018),民國15年(大正15年)出生於嘉義,青年時期前往日本廣島留學,1945年廣島原爆期間,因恰巧出勤離開廣島市,而幸運的在這次災難中倖存。1946年2月從日本返國後,隨即投入國民教育,1947年又遇二二八事件。這一段流變、離散與居所難以定錨的狀態,以及面對歷史事件猶如失語的情感壓抑,反映出當時部分嘉義市民面臨時代困境的縮影,突顯出嘉義市獨特的歷史容貌。本片以訪談結合田野、重演與非虛構的穿插,試圖塑造私歷史及大時代間的對話及隱喻關係。

The film director, Hong Jun-yuan, hails from Chiayi, Taiwan, by way of marriage to a local. His work interweaves the remarkable contributions of his wife’s grandfather from the Japanese colonial era, reflecting the minor yet significant events in the daily lives of Chiayi’s residents during that historical period. Starting with the family history narrative, the discussion delves into the everyday experiences of regular individuals amid major historical shifts. It outlines how pivotal historical junctures have affected individual lives. Moreover, by adopting the perspective of ordinary people, it reconstructs the dispersion and transformations brought by key historical events such as the Pacific War, the Hiroshima atomic bombing, and the issue regarding Taiwan’s sovereignty in relation to the Republic of China. The incorporation of scenes from the markets in Chiayi County and City within the film, juxtaposed with a comparison between the past and present, provides viewers with a retrospective glimpse into the life journey as it unfolds against the backdrop of changing historical eras.The protagonist of the documentary, Yifang Lin (1926-2018), was born in Chiayi in the 15th year of the Republic of China (Taisho 15th year). When he was young, he went to Hiroshima, Japan to study with his elder brother. During the atomic bombing of Hiroshima in 1945, he happened to leave Hiroshima because of work and survived this disaster.

人不在的時候,空房間裡到底發生了什麼事?就像一則寓言:在遙遠的森林中,沒有任何人的見證下,有一棵樹默默地倒下了,那它算不算倒了呢?在人類的經驗之外,時間與空間是否仍然存在?仍然持續?如果是,那是一種什麼狀態?

這是一部紀錄「無人狀態」的影片,選擇的材料是空房子的影像。當一個個形貌各異的空房從眼前流過,我們看到的除了房間的機能、坪數、價錢、地段…..等屬於「人」的部份之外,還看到了什麼?也許是電視新聞喃喃說的:天文學家用太空望遠鏡,觀察到千萬光年之外的某一粒星塵;也許是億萬年後,某一束從流散電波裡破解出的歷史影像;某個心靈無意間經驗了在宇宙漫長的膨脹過程中,某一粒星塵在某一星系的某一個時間點的狀態……

It’s a film about the status without a single soul, and all materials selected are images of empty houses. As each empty house in different style drifting by, besides all the human elements such as function, area measure, price and location, what else do we see?

Perhaps as the TV news murmurs, by the telescope witnesses an astronomer one stardust beyond million light-years; perhaps a historical image decoded from a loose electric wave hundreds of millions years later; perhaps a certain spirit accidentally learns the status of a certain stardust in certain time and galaxy…

一個女孩描述他的男友成為同志的經歷。一開始她只是個平凡的女孩,感受到被愛的喜悅,但是當男子離開後留給她的理由確是追求同性的真愛,對她而言是個很大的打擊。於是她也開始了對同性的交往過程,這個過程也帶給她與男子同樣的衝擊,而在此時他們之間似乎才真正的沒有距離。男子似乎是從追尋的過程中回來了,但是女子的心情事複雜的,她對於他的離去,彈琴就當作是一種報復吧。對於不再恨的恨意,以及對於大提琴的性愛觀,彼此就像不相交的歪斜線一樣,綿綿密密的成為冷靜語調中被包覆的錯雜情感。作品的處理由幾年來的旅遊紀錄開始,藉由愛情故事與異質化的影像,探索性頃向與當代性別關係。將原始素材重新拆解速度、構圖、顏色。使用影像特質的差異性,將影像作彼此的對話、融合,產生新的閱讀向度。

This is a 3-part love story. One girl is talking a story of her ex-boyfriend. He went aboard to chase for homosexual love. Although she stayed home, both of them are experiencing almost simultaneously unbounded sexual exploring journey in each end. The traditional narrative monologue is manipulated as a link to all the experimental segments. As the story goes on, the emotion of those original extremely abstract experimental footages are becoming touchable and understandable. The very original footages, which had been proceeded as, speed changing, deformation, reframing, and composition, are the film-diary of Tony Wu from his past travel experiences. This film is also exploring the texture-differences among different media. The raw materials combine 8mm, 16mm and DV.

早期抽象

Early Abstractions(16mm)

哈利.史密斯 Harry Smith

美國 USA / 1939-1956 / 23min / 無字幕 no subtitle

• 3/24 (日) 14:55 嘉義市立博物館 放映室 Screening Hall of Chiayi Municipal Museum

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

《早期抽象》由六部電影組成,長度從 2 到 5 分鐘不等, 這些作品從1939年到1952年陸續製作完成。深受到美洲原住民文化、爵士樂、卡巴拉神秘主義和超現實主義的啟發,導演哈里·史密斯為了開創觀影的多重可能性,在膠卷底片上貼了圓形、可移動的貼紙,或直接塗漆,建構出自帶能量的有機輪廓,建構了自己的形狀、色彩、光線和時間的電影宇宙,揭示了實驗影像最為異想天開、繽紛燦爛的一面。

正如美國前衛電影教父約拿斯.梅卡斯(Jonas Mekas)所說:「你可以為了純粹的色彩享受而看,你可以為了看影像運動而看,或為了隱藏的象徵符號而看,不管如何,哈里·史密斯的作品永遠比我所看過的任何其他電影的層次都多。」

“Early Abstractions” is comprised of six films that vary in length from 2 to 5 1/2 minutes. The works were produced over a 7 year period from 1946 to 1952. Inspired by Native American cultures, jazz, the Kabbala, and surrealism, Smith assembled his own cinematic universe of shape, color, light and time. “Early Abstractions” reveals the whimsical, mystical side of experimental film. As Jonas Mekas has said, "You can watch them for pure color enjoyment; you can watch them for motion- Harry Smith's films never stop moving; or you can watch them for hidden symbolic meanings, alchemic signs. There are more levels in Harry Smith's work than in any other film I know."

【導演簡介|DIRECTOR PROFILE】

美國電影作者、畫家、音樂學家、民族誌學家、收藏家和神秘主義者。 史密斯最為人所知的是於1952年編撰完成《美國民間音樂選集》,影響60 年代民謠音樂復興的推動。他在實驗電影創作和繪畫方面的貢獻也備受推崇,別具個性且創新的藝術追求,也讓他被視為廿世紀最豐富的跨領域藝術家之一。

American filmmaker, painter, musicologist, ethnographer, collector, and mystic. Smith is best known as the compiler of the Anthology of American Folk Music (1952), which served as a catalyst and influential source for the folk revival of the 1960s. Appreciation also has grown for his contributions as an experimental filmmaker and painter. An autodidact and polymath whose eccentric but innovative artistic pursuits and collecting are legendary, he was one of the most colourful multidisciplinary artists of the 20th century.

蒙特婁的一秒

One Second in Montreal(16mm)

加拿大 Canada / 1969 / 26min / 無字幕 no subtitle

• 3/24 (日) 14:55 嘉義市立博物館 放映室 Screening Hall of Chiayi Municipal Museum

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

一系列的雪景,環繞著蒙特婁一座紀念碑的四面八方,一張接一張地、持續地構成了這部關於時間的電影實驗。看似平凡無奇的靜照,在導演斯諾極簡的影像序列構組中,提供了對時間的微妙解讀,畫面或長或短、自成一格,看似缺席的內在張力,反而放大了時間作為電影中最純粹的存在,穿透影像躍然銀幕。《蒙特婁的一秒》既陌生又熟悉地喚醒觀眾的影像感知力,剝奪了傳統敘事的情節模式,逼使觀眾純淨地探索自我與影像之間的可能性。電影學者希特尼 (P.Adams Sitney)盛讚本片為導演邁克爾・斯諾探討時間本質的傑作:「一部充滿攻擊性,卻令人難以忘懷的邊緣之作。」

A collection of snow scenes, all still photographs of potential sites for a monument in Montreal, follow one another for twenty-two minutes. The film is aggressive, yet haunting. It too is at the edge, at the point where an image of an actuality provides a firmer ground for meditation than an abstract image or no image at all. This particular film proves the subtlety of Snows genius, in his ability to locate a precise Image of time without resorting to nostalgia or any iconic representation of the past or futurity. The shots are held longer and longer as we enter the middle of the film, and they shorten towards the end. “One Second in Montreal” offers a subtle reading of time, distinctions in the duration of one very long hold and one just slightly shorter. The absence of internal movement denies the sense of temporal scale.

午後的迷惘

Meshes of the Afternoon

亞歷山大・罕密德 Alexander Hammid、瑪雅.黛倫 Maya Deren

美國 USA / 1943 / 14min / 無字幕 no subtitle

• 3/24 (日) 14:55 嘉義市立博物館 放映室 Screening Hall of Chiayi Municipal Museum

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

午後,陽光搖曳、樹影婆娑,女人的白日長眠,彷彿釋放了潛意識的所有夢靨,在一次又一次的跟蹤尾隨裡,瞥見轉角的神秘人影,赫然發現椅子上沈睡的自己,舞動著性與死亡的風景。

《午後的迷惘》是美國實驗電影中最具影響力的作品之一,由瑪雅・黛倫自導自演,不僅在掀起了獨立前衛電影運動,並直接啟發了肯尼思·安格、斯坦·布拉哈奇等創作者,開啟六〇年代新美國電影浪潮。全片以一名女子的白日夢為主軸,反覆出現的抽象視覺隱喻與超現實敘事,搭配夢靨般的神秘氛圍及高度風格化的肢體語言,以幾近精神分析的手法鋪陳出一段詭魅詩篇。

A woman returning home falls asleep and has vivid dreams that may or may not be happening in reality. Through repetitive images and complete mismatching of the objective view of time and space, her dark inner desires play out on-screen.

Directed and played by Maya Deren, “Meshes of the Afternoon” is one of the most influential works in American experimental cinema. It established the independent avant-garde movement in film in the United States, now known as the New American Cinema. It directly inspired early works by Kenneth Anger, Stan Brakhage, and other major experimental filmmakers..

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

第三次世界大戰後,巴黎因核爆殘破不堪,為了繼續生存,科學家利用戰俘做實驗,試圖在時間裡找尋意識的出口,但卻不斷地失敗。直到男子的出現,他腦中揮之不去一段記憶:機場堤道上的女子回憶,讓這一切似乎有了轉機⋯⋯。

融合劇情、實驗、科幻等多重風格,本片不僅被視為前衛實驗的影史經典,也被奇幻名導泰瑞吉蘭奉為個人啟蒙圭臬,以此為藍本拍出科幻名片《未來總動員》。全片以靜照的極簡影像敘事,從現實、記憶、到未來想像,將每一格畫面幻化成時間記憶裡的瞬息永恆,實踐了電影之於文學與後設的語境探索,堪稱靈光消逝年代裡的最後一道曙光,班雅明、蘇珊桑塔格信徒必看。

The Third World War has engulfed the whole planet. Radioactivity is spreading. A team of scientists realize that the only way out is to send someone into the past or the future. They set to work in underground concentration camps. Before his dramatic demise, the hero will have a love affair with a woman living in another temporal space.

The 1962 French science fiction by Chris Marker is also known in English as “The Pier”. Constructed almost entirely from still photos, it tells the story of a post-nuclear war experiment in time travel. It won the Prix Jean Vigo for short film. The 1995 science fiction film “12 Monkeys “was inspired by, and takes several concepts directly from, La Jetée.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

《巴索里尼的奧秘》是一部記錄顯著變革的人物的敘述作品。當巴索里尼將貝納多·貝托魯奇聘為《Accattone》電影的助理導演時,貝托魯奇開始涉足詩歌創作。同樣的情況也出現在文琛佐·切拉米身上,他是巴索里尼的前中學生,巴索里尼在電影《Uccellacci e Uccellini》中將他引入電影世界。帕索利尼有一種在別人未能察覺的地方發現才華的本事,宛如占卜者。同樣的情況也出現在羅拉·貝蒂、丹特·費雷蒂、達尼洛·多納蒂、莫里康內等人身上。在電影和文化領域中的所有這些重要人物都深受他們與帕索利尼相遇以及他有魅力的個性影響。

Pier Paolo Pasolini - A New Vision is the narration of personalities who underwent significant changes after encountering Pasolini. Bernardo Bertolucci starts writing poetry when Pasolini involves him as an assistant director in the film Accattone. The same happens to Vincenzo Cerami, his former middle school student, whom he introduces to the world of cinema in the film Uccellacci e Uccellini. Sergio Citti is a painter when Pasolini senses in him the ideal narrator to tell stories about the suburbs. Pasolini had a knack for uncovering talent where others didn't perceive it, like a diviner. The same thing happened with Laura Betti, Dante Ferretti, Danilo Donati, Morricone, and many others. All significant figures in cinema and culture owe much to the encounter they had with Pasolini and his charismatic personality.

《山林轉換:走跳計畫初步》

本片紀錄臺灣中生代具有代表性的兩位舞蹈家:陳武康與余彥芳,以島嶼環境為布幅的走跳計劃。計畫初期兩人尾隨藝術家高俊宏踏查日據時期大豹溪流域隘勇線遺址的腳步入山,並將山途顛簸的身體和歷史現場的感官衝擊轉換爲新北市板橋驫舞排練場的一場即興演出。走跳計畫以身體穿越市井街道、歷史現場,一路走走跳跳,以展覽、直播、現場演出等不拘形式即時輸出,一種身體的說唱藝術,帶有即時性、就地取材、稍縱即逝的脆弱質地,意圖藉此處理一種直接而透明的體感表達曲徑。

A Fading Flower

"Have we reached a point of no return?" This was my biggest feeling during filming. Born and raised in Hong Kong, I bid farewell to the place where I had lived for over forty years in 2019 and settled down in Tainan. My wife, a native of Tainan, left her hometown at 19 to study and work in Hong Kong. After living in Hong Kong for over twenty years, she followed me back to her homeland. As we both look back on the other side, the feelings that have finally calmed down resurface. In 2020, I created this work in the form of dance imagery. It is a dialogue between the body and the world; crossing from Hong Kong to Tainan, and then calling back to Hong Kong from Tainan. The struggle is real and it may seem insignificant but it's still a fact. We hope that through the connection of the sea and the extension of the landscape, we can once again use our bodies to dance out the words in our hearts.

This film documents two representative mid-generation dancers in Taiwan: Chen Wu-Kang and Yu Yen-Fang, with a roaming project set against the backdrop of the island environment. At the beginning of the project, they followed the footsteps of artist Kao Jun-Honn into the mountains to investigate the remains of the Duau River Basin's Duan bravery line from the Japanese colonial period, transforming the bumpy body on the mountain journey and the sensory impact of the historical site into an impromptu performance in the Banqiao Taoyuan rehearsal venue in New Taipei City. The roaming project traverses urban streets and historical sites with the body, walking and hopping along the way, delivering in real-time through exhibitions, live streaming, on-site performances and other informal outputs. It's a kind of physical storytelling art, characterized by its immediacy, site-specific material, and ephemeral fragility, with the intention of processing a direct and transparent path of bodily expression.

Beginning Step into Walk/Dance Project

Two of Taiwan’s renowned choreographers in their 40s, Chen Wu-kang and Yu Yen-fang, have come together in a collaborative dance project that explores the island through walking. This film documents their mountaineering journey as guided by acclaimed visual artist and mountain guide Kao Jun-honn through the Savage Line along the Llyung Topa (Dabao River), which culminates in an improvisational performance of this experience at HORSE Dance Theatre in New Taipei City.

在這部電影致敬作品中,《REELING REVERIE》被描繪為對電影轉化力量的衷心頌歌。敘事源於個人經歷,圍繞一位年輕女子在劇院中尋找安慰和逃避的故事。電影院被描繪為聖所,成為探索慾望、挖掘夢想和擁抱各種情感的門戶。隨著年輕女子沉浸於電影的世界,舞蹈呈現為一次自我發現之旅,銀幕成為反映她夢想和情感的鏡子,最終引領她深刻認識到自己真正的自我。

STILL
(2014)
Dance is a universal language. With this in mind, filmmaker/choreographer William Lü explores the idea of using dance and movement as dialogs in this narrative film about a young man who struggles with longing and loss. STILL tells a story of a relationship bound in a cycle of
uncertainty. Disjointed dialogues, empty embraces, and opposing desires impede the young man's waking hours as he struggles to come to terms with his reality.


UN/SUFFOCATE
(2021)
Un/Suffocate is a visual ballad in response to the despair, isolation, and suffocation most people worldwide experienced during the dragged-on pandemic. Through directed and task-based dance improvisation, director William Lü and dancer Yi-Ching Chen explored minimal and organic movements. The work was commissioned by the Dancecology dance company and filmed at the Yilan National Center for Traditional Arts.


BREAKING WAVES
(2020)
Commissioned by NACH, this dance film unfolds in Taitung's breathtaking landscapes, where mountains meet the ocean. It explores the strength of the inner voice, symbolized by the rhythmic waves. Delving beyond the literal, the film highlights the power within one's inner dialogue. The dancers' bodies intertwine with Taitung's textured visuals, creating a mesmerizing visual symphony that mirrors the dance of the inner voice against the stunning backdrop.


REELING REVERIE (rough edit)
(2023)
In this cinematic tribute, REELING REVERIE unfolds as a heartfelt ode to the transformative power of cinema. Drawing from personal experience, the narrative centers around a young woman who discovers solace and escape in a theater. Cinemas, portrayed as sanctuaries, become a gateway for exploring desires, unearthing dreams, and embracing a spectrum of emotions. As the young woman immerses herself in the cinematic realm, the dance unfolds as a journey of self-discovery, where the silver screen becomes a mirror reflecting her dreams and emotions, ultimately leading her to the profound realization of her true self.

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

明日樂園以明日為題,試圖作為一個對於未來想像的投射,但這個想像面對的未來卻是一個「向死而生」的過程。袁廣鳴創作之初以個人生命經驗及反轉日常事物成為不同觀看經驗為創作主軸,2000年開始,從個人的生命經驗擴及對城市及全球化的的狀態描述,討論的對象逐漸從個人延伸至社會、全球性議題,但作品核心卻不斷叩問生而為人卻終將面對的問題:「我們為何而活、為何存在?」 全球化浪潮所造成的流動,身處在世界經濟結構體系中的我們也不能倖免,即便我們現在居於此處,卻也可能在不久之後迫於經濟、政治、氣候環境而遷移他處。究竟何處為「家」?「家」的概念,在這個時代似乎更為脆弱、流動與擴張。「家」,作為一個人最初始的社會關係建立與認知的場域,也反映自我身分的認同與定位,不僅是實體的居所,也是心靈的歸屬之地。這些現世狀態所造成「家」的不穩定性,也同樣反映在精神層面上,並影響身處這時代的創作者。袁廣鳴的影像往往脫離現實世界的臨場感,轉換為虛幻/虛擬的存在,以幽靈的形式,寄託在作品之中,形成一種徘徊於「無域之所」(non-place)的存在境遇。 與展名同名的新作《明日樂園》,影像中微風靜靜吹拂的無人遊樂園,看似寂靜,卻在片刻後莫名地炸毀。上世紀末的蘇聯解體,原以為為冷戰劃下句點,世界走向太平;但回看如今,世界似乎更為動蕩。後冷戰的年代,安逸的生活似乎只是頃刻的「確幸」,生活背面所潛藏的衝突一觸即發,如環境惡化、金融危機、貧富差距、跨境非法移民、能源危機等,戰爭型態從實體流變至虛擬,更潛移默化至生活中。 「明日樂園」此一命題所揭示的寓意,在本次個展的新作中逐一顯露:從象徵核爆的強光、解嚴之後台灣地區仍持續的演習、象徵全球化、資本主義的迪士尼遊樂園、在台人口比例逐步攀升的移工,到最後新作《向黑》連結因戰亂而迫於遷移離散的意象,每件作品互為文本,環扣著全球化下我們不得不去面對的處境。素來以發掘影像可能性並突破舊有形式見長的袁廣鳴,本次在體驗式演出作品《向黑》中隱去一切光源,試圖回到人類最初始的幽冥狀態,卻又以此作涵蓋本次個展中觸及的在世現象,這種原初狀態,如同加斯東・巴舍拉(Gaston Bachelard)認為有些意象必須以存有的直接臨在狀態來體驗 。這種體驗猶如進入一個黑洞,在邁向這黑洞的過程中,或許能找到一種原初的狀態,從內部確認我們的存有。

Tomorrowland attempts to project an imaginary future that pivots around German philosopher Heidegger’s concept of “being-towards-death.” Drawing from personal life experiences, Yuan Goang-Ming transforms the everyday into different viewing experiences. Since 2000, his focus has shifted to the city and globalization, from individual to social and global issues. But his practice continues to delve into the question that confounds humanity: Why do we live? Why do we exist? Living in an interconnected economic system, we are not exempt from the wave of globalization. We may very likely be forced to relocate in the foreseeable future due to economic, political, or climatic factors. So where exactly do we call “home”? The idea of “home” seems to be more fragile, fluid, and expanded now more than ever. Home, as the preliminary space where one learns to build relationships, awareness, and identity, is not only a physical living space, but also a sanctuary. "Home" in today's world is undergoing a drastic change, both on physical and psychological levels. This change has profoundly influenced the artists of our time, including Yuan Goang-Ming. His imagery is often pregnant with a sense of illusion and fictionality that allows his work to linger in a state of non-place. In Yuan's new work Tomorrowland, an empty amusement park stands quietly in the breeze, moments before being blown apart by a sudden explosion. After the collapse of the Soviet Union in the late 20th century, the Cold War ended and world peace seemed to have been restored. But now the world has plunged into greater turmoil. In the post-Cold War era, a peaceful life is only a facade, behind which such challenges lurk: environmental degradation, financial crisis, wealth inequality, illegal immigration, and energy crisis. The beginning of a different war dawns. No longer physical, this war insidiously percolates into our life. Meanings of Tomorrowland are slowly unveiled in the new works on view in this exhibition. Blinding bright light that symbolizes the flash of a nuclear explosion, the air raid drill that continues to take place in Taiwan even after the lift of martial law, Disneyland that represents globalization and capitalism, the rising number of migrant workers in Taiwan, and finally the concept of forced displacement in the new work Towards Darkness. Juxtaposed together, these works highlight the inevitable conflicts that we are faced with in a globalized world. Yuan is known for exploring possibilities in imagery by breaking free from old forms. In the immersive live exhibition Towards Darkness, a lightless space evokes the human embryonic stage, while hinting at the social issues touched upon in this exhibition. As French philosopher Gaston Bachelard once said, some imagery can only be experienced through being directly in its existing presence. This experience, much like walking into a black hole, could perhaps lead us towards a primordial state, allowing us to verify our existence from within.

袁廣鳴的作品以像徵隱喻,結合科技媒材的手法,深刻傳達出人們當下的生存狀態,以及對人的感知及意識與極具詩意的深入展現。2000年以前的創作,主要以個人的生命經驗及反轉日常事物成就新的觀看現實為創作基線,2000年開始,從個人的生命經驗擴展及對城市及轉化的狀態描述;“逝去中的風景”系列開始對於“家”及“身份”的概念描述,以微型自傳式的手法開創出以一種之間錄製藝術與電影之間的新型格式的動態影像作品,展現劇場式的日常。2014年的個展“不舒適的明日”由“家”的延伸至目前在新興底下的在地生存處境的探問,思辨現代人的困頓與憂懼。

Yuan Guangming's works employ symbolic metaphors, combining techniques of technology and media to profoundly convey the current state of human existence, as well as the perception and consciousness of individuals with a highly poetic depth. Prior to 2000, his creations primarily stemmed from personal life experiences and the transformation of everyday objects into new perspectives on reality. Starting from 2000, his works expanded from personal life experiences to descriptions of urban and transformative states. The "Scenes of Vanishing" series began to explore the concepts of "home" and "identity," using a mini-autobiographical approach to pioneer dynamic visual works that blur the lines between recorded art and cinema, showcasing a theatrical portrayal of daily life. His 2014 solo exhibition "Uncomfortable Tomorrows" extended from the concept of "home" to an exploration of the current local survival situation under emerging circumstances, contemplating the dilemmas and fears of modern individuals.

正午過後,陽光從左側窗外灑入「宜家家居」風格的客廳擺設,洋溢著溫馨與靜謐。瀰漫在此一時光之中的,並非自然的空氣。微微的氣泡迅速向上升浮;攤開的書本不自主地翻騰,我們恍然察覺――這是一個栖居水下的居家奇觀。此時,突如其來地,發自地底的一聲瞬間震爆,摧毀了眼前這個「小世界」。

Sunlight spills through the window into a living room, which looks much like what one usually sees in IKEA. We soon realize that this is the spectacle of an underwater dwelling. All of a sudden, an instant blast from underground demolishes this microcosm…

【影片簡介|PRODUCTION NOTES】

20 世紀後半葉,所謂的 "台灣奇蹟",台灣工業的飛速發展,對一個高度多樣化、主要以農業為主且極具傳統色彩的社會產生了深遠的影響。轉型的速度之快,讓台灣人民具有高度的適應能力。這些轉變的速度要求台灣人民具備高度的適應能力。儘管在1990年代引入了民主制度,但社會發展仍然落後於不受拘束且以經濟增長為導向的變革。直至今日,傳統觀念和在一個以功利主義為本的社會中求生的需求,與現代台灣的主流敘事產生衝突。在這些變革中,由於缺乏團結讓許多人被遺漏在一旁。相反,傳統價值觀的要求增加了壓力並帶來了困苦。 在這樣的背景下,創作者使用一部紀實紀錄片來描述她自己家族歷史的一部分。她以黑白的相片、溫情的敘述,呈現了台灣未被講述的社會歷史中個別生命的宿命。通過這樣的方式,她深刻而感性地展示了這些生命所面臨的殘酷孤獨。被忽視的狗、殘障的叔叔和盡責盡職的祖母,成為一個象徵,代表了一個在追求自由和繁榮的過程中被遺忘的人們。

During the latter half of the 20th century the so-called Taiwan miracle, the islands rapid industrial development, left a deep impact on a highly diverse, largely agricultural and strongly traditional society. The sheer pace of the transformations demanded a high level of adaptability from the people of Taiwan. Despite the introduction of a democratic system during the 1990s, social development was lacking behind the unbridled and growth oriented economic change. Still today, traditional mindsets and the demands of survival in a meritocracy collide with public narrative of a modern Taiwan. During the transformations, lacking solidarity many were left out in the cold. Instead, the demands of traditional values added to the pressures and self-imposed hardship. Against this background, Chang uses an expository documentary that portrays a part of her own family history. She mirrors fatefully individualized biographies of Taiwan’s untold social history. With mellow sequenced photographic exposures and a balanced and tender narrative she provides a deep and emotional insight into the brutal loneliness that characterizes these biographies. A neglected dog, a handicapped uncle and a grandmother who did everything right, become symbols of a society that has left many people behind in its urge for freedom and prosperity.
