ylho'mMK~郭瑛 2006年春夏系列



今日去過Grotto睇郭瑛的展覽,未去之前自己嘗試根據很多年前的印象來推想她現時的面貌,大概怎樣怎樣……
走進畫廊,看見了一些貌似家居用品的作品,走近看清楚才知道是手繪圖案,重複又重複地畫,形象有些似青花,有些似古樸器物;整體上跟以前有一脈相連的發展關係。現時的特徵看來是傾向乾淨和中國化。作品大致上都很整潔,唯一比較突兀的一件作品是那由幾張掛軸組成的大畫,不知這樣稱呼是否合適,看起來是組合不成,卷曲變形得很厲害,給人有點失控的感覺。

在展場逗留的時間不算長,印象中還有一兩件小作品放在某角落還未搞清楚,本來就沒有打算在這裡寫些什麼。離開的時候,奇怪地很順手便拿了張邀請吉,在車上跟朋友研究了一會,發覺很有問題。

我向來都很怕介紹自己的作品,不論是口講還是寫字同樣都怕。如果可以不做或者有人可以幫忙,感覺會舒服些。原因大概有好幾個,都是一些沒有什麼特別的理由。不知郭瑛這段短短的介紹是誰寫的,我讀了這段文字之後便開始懷疑郭英做curator的能力;這樣就給它出街,我繼而懷疑畫廊的能力。這張邀請吉似做反宣傳,如果這不是兩者原先的想法,郭瑛跟畫廊未免太輕率了吧!不知其他人有沒有同感呢? ylho

010606-NY18 bks as time testimony

Writing on what I did on Thurs, alright, let's see, I got up late again, heads off to Midtown library, for the bksales, brought another issue of NAJP journal, for only because it's really cheap, a 75cents, most of the articles I am not really interested, my impression on this bunch of people isn't too gd, I guess. But happened to notice even Micheal kimmelman is a quite recent graduate. Everyone has to have some papers these days, even someone at NYTimes (I assume he is on the job already when studying)?
Then find there is a Ballet Russe video screening which I couldn't catch in time, I walked across to Central library to see the surprisingly gd show of French Book Art. from Marllarme-Manet onwards, to e.g. Batialle with Masson, even Batialle with A Giacometti! Artaud to Guy Debord ... really a great feast. (Will write later on the chicago experience on Art Book of my last trip later on, which Phoebe from AAA once told me to write a long time ago.) Then in the smaller corridor gallery, there is some recent acquistion, including two great t. Struth shot of New York, and others like Meyerowitz and Arbus.
Then I visited the Gotham Books nearby, a really gd literary bk stores, reminding me of the time when I read and read writers like Maria Varga llosa. missed those times much.
