由英國總領(lǐng)事館文化教育處攜手歐洲GLSA Ltd.當代著名行為藝術(shù)策展人喬納斯?斯坦普(Jonas Stampe)共同主辦、雅庫藝術(shù)空間與深圳中學協(xié)辦的“深圳現(xiàn)場——中英行為藝術(shù)文化交流”活動將于2010年12月3、4日在深圳舉行。屆時將有英國當代獨具影響力的藝術(shù)家布賴恩?康諾利（Brian Connolly）、約翰?考特（John Court）以及中國早期先鋒藝術(shù)家段英梅和北京新銳藝術(shù)家戈丫進行為期兩天的行為表演、講座、以及公眾互動討論等一系列活動。
近年行為藝術(shù)節(jié)不僅在全球的舉辦場次呈上升趨勢，在亞洲的不同國家地區(qū)情況亦然。不僅如此，行為藝術(shù)作為一個新穎的、正在逐步擴大影響力的藝術(shù)媒介，參與者的數(shù)目與日俱增，其中大多是年輕一代的藝術(shù)家，可謂是“屬于未來的藝術(shù)”。在這次中英行為藝術(shù)文化交流中，我們將為公眾帶來老一輩行為藝術(shù)家與年輕藝術(shù)家的碰撞，中國女性藝術(shù)家和西方男性藝術(shù)家的對話，極具學術(shù)性和教育意義。行為藝術(shù)將不僅僅是先鋒的，具有實驗性的邊緣新藝術(shù)，同時也能感染那些運用情感與理智去感受他們所看到的人們，點燃我們與我們對于時間與生命的詩意的理解與感悟。每一位藝術(shù)家的作品都是不可再生的，是當下的、短暫的、獨具態(tài)度的。

藝術(shù)家簡介
布賴恩?康諾利（Brian Connolly），英國
布賴恩?康諾利（Brian Connolly）出生于1961年，一直在貝爾法斯特生活和工作。作為一名多媒體藝術(shù)家，他的作品常常涉及“地方”以及環(huán)境。他運用的藝術(shù)手段也是各式各樣的：其中包括表演、公共雕塑、裝置藝術(shù)以及其他合作項目。
目前他采用了兩種獨樹一幟的表演策略：一是運用市場攤位干預的形式吸引非“藝術(shù)”觀眾；其次，他還使用超現(xiàn)實式幽默拷問消費主義以及全球政治和社會倫理。他的其他現(xiàn)場作品通常與某個地方有關(guān)，并具有持續(xù)性。這些表演作品均被冠名為“裝置一行動”，往往通過視覺闡述并包含政治和精神上的隱喻。
約翰?考特（John Court），英國
|
 |
| 約翰考特作品Genuine Fractals 5 USM 80 |
約翰?考特（John Court）于1969年出生于英國，并于1997年移居芬蘭。他創(chuàng)作了眾多大型繪畫、現(xiàn)場演出以及視頻作品，旨在反映與學習相關(guān)的問題。他的作品曾在英國、斯堪的納維亞以及柏林展出。同時，在著名的歐洲藝術(shù)盛事上可以看見他作品的身影，如包括威尼斯雙年展（2005）以及利物浦雙年展（2004）。
1999年，約翰?考特（John Court）根據(jù)八個小時工作日的傳統(tǒng)理念創(chuàng)造了一系列的作品。他利用他運動中的軀體表現(xiàn)其學習經(jīng)歷的混亂。這一系列表演空間創(chuàng)造了將自我軀體、空白頁與未讀頁之間并置后的緊迫性。在日常生活中，人們總是將時間花費在各式各樣而又相互競爭的情緒和感覺中。時間是可以用來花費、捕獲、浪費、殺害、保存、遺失以及被發(fā)現(xiàn)的。而這一切，都在約翰?考特（John Court）的行為作品中毫無遺漏地呈現(xiàn)。
阿拉斯泰爾?麥克倫南（Alastair Maclennan）, 英國 (廣州站藝術(shù)家)

| 阿拉斯泰爾麥克倫南作品Wrap Wrap |
阿拉斯泰爾?麥克倫南（Alastair Maclennan）是國際舞臺上最多產(chǎn)的表演藝術(shù)家之一。身為極富傳奇色彩的表演藝術(shù)團體Black Market的成員，麥克倫南被視為在當代藝術(shù)這一特定領(lǐng)域的核心人物。他目前擔任北愛爾蘭阿爾斯特大學(University of Ulster)美術(shù)專業(yè)的名譽教授。
比爾?莊蒙德(Bill Drummond), 英國 (廣州站藝術(shù)家)
比爾?莊蒙德(Bill Drummond)，出生于1953年，是一位蘇格蘭裔音樂家、媒體名人、唱片制作人、作家、藝術(shù)家。自1973年從利物浦藝術(shù)學院(Liverpool College of Art)畢業(yè)后，他便使用多種方式對文化環(huán)境進行探討和交流，包括寫作、流行音樂和行為藝術(shù)。
比爾最為人知的身份是80年代前衛(wèi)流行音樂樂隊 “版權(quán)解放戰(zhàn)線（The KLF）”的聯(lián)合創(chuàng)始人。該組合在90年代轉(zhuǎn)化為前衛(wèi)藝術(shù)媒體組織K Foundation。在該組織期間，他表演燃燒了一百萬英鎊(1994年)。比爾在英國各大展覽館里舉行過無數(shù)個人展覽。自1998年，比爾的所有作品都被收錄在Penkiln Burn的品牌下。他創(chuàng)作了各式各樣的概念藝術(shù)項目，并協(xié)助建立了藝術(shù)中心“鑄造廠（The Foundry）”，東倫敦的Shoreditch新文藝區(qū)。其著作有：《手冊》(1989)、《惡智慧》(1996)、《45》(2000)、《怎樣成為一名藝術(shù)家》(2002)以及《瘋狂的高速公路》(2005)。
段英梅，中國
|
 |
| 段英梅作品-我愛電腦 |
中國藝術(shù)家段英梅的創(chuàng)作生涯始于作畫，九十年代她來到藝術(shù)家聚集地“北京東村”，接觸學習了當代藝術(shù)的先鋒群體。也是在那兒她參與創(chuàng)作了有名的行為藝術(shù)作品《為無名山增高一米》。1998年英梅踏上德國的土地，在布倫瑞克造型藝術(shù)學院師從瑪麗娜?阿布拉莫維奇（Marina Abramovic）、波爾吉特?海因（Birgit Hein）和克里斯多夫?施林格塞弗（Christoph Schlingensief）。
英梅作為行為藝術(shù)家在國內(nèi)外參與了大量展覽、藝術(shù)節(jié)和工作坊。她的作品發(fā)生在特定場地，富有實驗精神。她常于室內(nèi)或室外空間選定地點來實現(xiàn)創(chuàng)作，創(chuàng)造空間感是她的作品的重要部分。另外，時態(tài)擴展、自發(fā)性和觀眾參與也在其作品中占重要地位。為了讓作品與日常生活緊密相連，英梅熱愛與不同人工作，無論他們的年齡、生活領(lǐng)域和文化背景如何。
英梅的行為作品都取材自我們熟悉的環(huán)境，比如她的裝置會用紙、垃圾、家具等等。她用自己的身體來表達，于是事物之間不同尋常的聯(lián)系就被形象地建立起來了：有時嘲諷，有時悲劇，有時神秘。她通過使用噪音和光，營造出緊張的氛圍和情緒。
戈丫，中國
獨立藝術(shù)家，IAC國際藝術(shù)交流志愿者組織創(chuàng)建人。2005畢業(yè)于西安美術(shù)學院油畫專業(yè)，2006年研讀于中央美術(shù)學院壁畫系，現(xiàn)居住于中國北京。

戈丫出生于1983年，是中國年輕一代的藝術(shù)家，創(chuàng)作角度關(guān)注中國不同社會背景下的個人成長及記憶，并從記憶的重組中整理出社會價值體系、物質(zhì)世界對個人成長帶來的影響，并進行反思。她的作品以近似暴力的方式迫使觀眾（行為參與者）回顧時代 、成長、 玩樂 、性 、暴力、政治 、資本、社會事件、 時尚 、 物質(zhì)等，最終以視覺暴力和聽覺暴力的方式呈現(xiàn)出物質(zhì)化對個人的影響 ，同時討論個人記憶與公共審美記憶之間的分歧。
SHENZHEN ACTION: BRITISH CHINESE ACTION ART ENCOUNTERS
Shenzhen Action: British Chinese Action Art Encounters
Shenzhen Action: British Chinese Action Art Encounters, jointly brought about by the Cultural and Education Section of the British Consulate-General and the prestigious European contemporary arts curator Jonas Stampe, in partnership with Shenzhen Middle School and Ya Ku Art, is going to be held in Shenzhen on the 3rd and 4th of December 2010. The influential UK contemporary artists Bill Drummond and Brian Connolly, as well as the Chinese avant-garde artist Yingmei Duan and independent artist Ge Ya will bring to the public live performance, presentations and public discussion on a 2-day span.
In recent years the number of action art festivals is on apparent rise globally, and for that matter, it takes no prisoner in different countries in Asia. Nevertheless, action art has nowadays become a novel and influential arts medium that attracts more and more participants like a magnet. Among them, a large proportion of the population is a younger generation of artists who are into “the art belongs to the future”. On this occasion, this British Chinese Action Art Encounters could present to the public the interaction and comparison between ‘old’ and emerging action artists. The intellectual dialogue between Chinese female artists and western male artists are inspiring both on the academic and educational front. Action art is an avant-garde and experimental new form of art on the fringe and, what’s more, it appeals to people who understand it by seeing and feeling it emotionally and intellectually. It could also ignite and inspire our poetic understanding and learning about time and life. Every work of every artist presents in this event is non-renewable. It’s here and now. It’s ephemeral and special.

Artists Profile
Brian Connolly， UK
Born in 1961, living and working in Belfast, Brian Connolly is a multi-media artist who's works often relate to ‘place' or context. He employs a wide range of artistic processes, including Performance, Public Sculpture, Installation Art, and collaborative projects.
He currently employs two distinct Performance strategies: The first is geared to entice a non ‘a(chǎn)rt' audience and takes the form of Market Stall intervention. Surreal humor is employed to question aspects of consumerism and global political and social ethics.
His other live works are often both place-specific & durational. These Performance works, generically entitled "Install-actions", are often visually elaborate and contain both political and spiritual metaphors.
John Court, UK
John Court was born in the UK in 1969, and moved to Finland in 1997. Court creates large scale drawings, performance and video works that reflect issues related to learning. His work has been exhibited in the UK, Scandinavia and Berlin, and has been featured in several prestigious European events including the Venice Biennale [2005], and the Liverpool Biennale [2004].
In 1999 John court began a series of performances based on the ethics of the eight hour working day. Court uses his body in motion to express the disarrangement of his learning experience.
The performance space creates the immediacy of the juxtaposition between the self as body, the blank page and a page unread. In the everyday situation, time is invariably spent in flux between a variety of competing moods and emotions.
Time is spent, caught, wasted, killed, saved, lost, found; all these events are evident in performance works of John Court.

Bill Drummond, UK (Guangzhou Live 2010) Born in 1953, living and working in London, Bill Drummond is a Scottish musician, media personality, record producer, writer and artist. Since leaving Liverpool College of Art in 1973 he has used various ways to investigate and converse with the cultural landscape. These investigations and conversations have found expression via the written word, pop music and actions.
Bill Drummond is best known as a co-founder of late 1980s avant-garde "pop group" The KLF and its 1990s "avant-art" media-manipulating successor, the K Foundation, with which he burned a million pounds in 1994. He has had numerous one-man exhibitions in major UK regional galleries. Since 1998, all Drummond's work has been framed within the context of The Penkiln Burn. He produced a variety of different conceptual art projects, and helped to set-up The Foundry, an arts centre in Shoreditch, London.
His written words include the following books: The Manual (1989), Bad Wisdom (1996), 45 (2000), How To Be An Artist (2002), and The Wild Highway (2005).

Yingmei Duan, China
Yingmei Duan begins as a painter in China. In the 90‘s she came to the "East Village", an Beijing artists' quarter and started to develop intimacy with the contemporary avant-garde. It was there and then that she attends the now famous performance "To Add One Meter to an Anonymous Mountain". In 1998 Yingmei Duan moved to Germany, where she studied at the HBK Braunschweig with Marina Abramovic, Birgit Hein and Christoph Schlingensief.
As a performance artist, she has been involved in numerous national and international exhibitions, festivals and workshops. Her work is experimental and site-specific. The artist often realizes her performances in found places in indoor and outdoor space or creates spatial situations that seem necessary for her work. The temporal extension, spontaneity, and the inclusion of the audience play an important role. To create a close connection to everyday life, Yingmei Duan loves to work together with people of different cultures, ages and from different areas of life.
Also, the materials used by her are objects of our familiar surroundings: she builds her installations of paper, garbage, furniture, etc. The artist works with her own body as a means of expression. In vivid images unusual connections are established between the things: sometimes ironic, sometimes tragic, or even mystical. By the use of noise and light, intense atmospheres and moods are created.
Yingmei Duan’s performative concepts convey visions between dream and reality, personal fears and desires. Focusing on cultural backgrounds, social constraints and social relationships, her performances raise a variety of questions, whilst without giving a definitive answer.
Geya,China
Independent artist, founder of the International Art Exchange (IAE) Volunteer Organisation. She graduated from Xi'an Academy of Fine Arts and majored in oil painting in 2005. In 2006, she studied at the Mural Painting Department of Central Academy of Fine Arts and is currently is living in Beijing, China. Soon after 2008, Ge Ya sought after the creation of multimedia arts, video installations, performing and performance arts. In August 2009, she was invited to feature in the eighth unit of the 10th anniversary of the 2009 Open International Performance Art Festival curated by the Mexican curator MARTIN RENTERIA, as well as in "III Biennial" Chile June 2010.
Born in 1983, Ge Ya belongs to the younger generation of artists. She is particularly interested with the trail of personal growth and memory under different Chinese social contexts and, from the reorganization of memories, she manages to sort out the social value system and the impact of the material world as oppose to the growth of individuals, subsequently reflect on it. In a way of quasi-violence, her works compel the audience (performance participants) to reflect on the era of generation, growth, fun, sex, violence, politics, capital, social events, fashion, material, and ultimately in the form of visual, as well as auditory violence to depict the impact of materialism onto individuals, whilst discussing the difference between individual and public aesthetic memory. In the meantime, As the founder of the International Art Exchange (IAE) Volunteer Organisation, she’s been working with a great number of active curators in China and getting involved in assisting a variety of curation works which include: the 10th anniversary of the OPEN International Performance Art Festival, "The Historical Transformation of China's New Art Documentary Exhibition 2001-2009 ", “2010 Get It Louder "and so on. In addition, she runs "IAC work shop --- Voluntary Cooperation and Share Plan" to encourage cross-disciplinary arts and artists cooperative projects in a voluntary way.
