“此地即彼地！”

“Here or There!”

从 2021 年起，伦敦知名画廊 Pilar Corrias 每年都会参加在北京举行的「画廊周北京」。2022 年 Pilar Corrias 带来了题为「“此地即彼地！”」的展览，通过呈现 Peppi Bottrop、崔洁和 Rirkrit Tiravanija 这三位来自不同国家和地区的艺术家的最新作品，以工业遗产和生态文明为主题，讨论了一个基于完全不同的现实的世界观，鼓励观众在后全球化时代共同思考造成世界差异化的时间及因素。

Since 2021, the renowned London gallery Pilar Corrias has participated annually in Gallery Weekend Beijing. In 2022, Pilar Corrias presents an exhibition entitled “Here of There!” presenting the latest works of Peppi Bottrop, Cui Jie and Rirkrit Tiravanija, three artists from different countries and regions, discussing a worldview based on a completely different reality through the themes of industrial heritage and ecological civilization, encouraging the audience to think together about the time and factors that differentiate the world in the post-globalization era.

『Peppi Bottrop 的绘画描绘了当今世界的结构转型困境。他以德国鲁尔区——欧洲曾经最繁荣的煤矿产区——为灵感，直接使用煤炭作为材料在画布上勾勒形似德国锈带地区混乱状况的网格结构，自然力攫取了工业历史的残留，两者形成一种奇异的共生关系。崔洁在此次的雕塑系列作品中，通过改写建筑结构语言的方法直接对现代建筑史展开批判，并扭转了人与人造物的尺度关系。其雕塑作品引用上海、杭州等地区的建筑及雕塑元素，也积极关照了国际现代主义遗产的多个不同分支。崔洁的作品在主题和形式层面均与 Bottrop 的作品大相径庭，但通过作品的并置关系强调了异质视角的价值与重要性。Rirkrit Tiravanija 在作品中仅保留最基本的语法形式，无具体意义的语句以暧昧又确凿的方式提出：我们必须共同打破沉默。艺术家以此强调普世语言的迫切性，邀请观众使用任意语言参与讨论。在此次的整个展览之中，三种迥异却紧密相连的艺术体系，以探索不同性质的紧迫现实，鼓励观众以自身生活经验与归属感作为出发点，考虑「此地」与「彼地」之间或确凿或飘渺的联系。』（文字来源于 Pilar Corrias 展览文本，2022）

"Peppi Bottrop's paintings depict the dilemma of structural transformation in today's world. Inspired by the Ruhr region of Germany, oncng the relationship between the scale of human and man-made objects. His sculptures refer to architectural and sculptural elements from Shanghai and Hangzhou, and also actively concern themselves with the many different branches of the international modernist heritage. Rirkrit Tiravanija's work retains only the most basic grammatical forms, with unspecific statements that suggest, in an ambiguous yet conclusive way, that we must all break the silence. In this way, the artist emphasizes the urgency of a universal language and invites the viewer to participate in the discussion in any language. Throughout this exhibition, three very different but closely interconnected artistic systems explore urgent realities of a different nature, encouraging the viewer to consider the definite or elusive connections between the “here” and the “there”, using their own lived experience and sense of belonging as a starting point.

Pocca 受到 Pilar Corrias 的邀请，第二次为这个年度的展览进行展览海报的设计。在设计过程中，我们通过阅读展览的策展文本并对三位艺术家作品的视觉语言和展览主题的基调的分析，将视觉化的重点置于「工业遗迹」、「生态野蛮主义」、「声明和问题」以及「宣言」这四个关键词中。最终将所有主要元素抽象化、意象化，融合进这个本身就具有符号性和形式感的标题中，将三位艺术家的作品中的视觉线索通过字型与文字编排设计的方式组织在海报的画面之中。

Pocca was invited by Pilar Corrias to design the exhibition poster for this annual exhibition for the second time. In the design process, we read the curatorial text of the exhibition and analyzed the visual language of the three artists' works and the tone of the exhibition's theme, focusing the visualization on four key words: “industrial relics”, “ecological barbarism”, “statements and questions” and “manifesto”. Finally, all of the elements are abstracted and imagined into the title which is itself symbolic and formal, and the visual clues from the three artists' works are organized in the poster's image by way of typography design.
