我们都看到了——扭曲的竹制脚手架,翻起的街道,还在滴下新鲜颜料的墙面,城市面貌在世博前不断更新,就像北京在奥运会前发生的变化那样。
是什么隐藏在这光鲜亮丽的白色涂料下呢？我们在掩盖什么,为什么要掩盖？谁决定了上海的新面貌应该是怎样？本展览将探讨理想主义和形象塑造的话题。
外立面工程推出15位艺术家新作,包括前沿的影像,装置和表演作品,材料形式多样,有蛋糕,铁丝网,金鱼以及发泡的机器等。

Make-Over
Opening and Curatorial Tour
OV Gallery PRESS RELEASE
 
We’ve all seen it – the warped bamboo scaffolding, the torn up streets, the walls dripping with fresh paint, the city is getting a face lift in time for the World Expo, similar to the process which befell Beijing in advance of the Olympics.
But what lies underneath that glossy white paint? What are we covering up and why? Who decides what will be the new face of Shanghai? This exhibition explores issues of history, idealism and image-making in the context of modern China.
“Make-over” features 15 newly-commissioned works, including cutting-edge video, installation and performance works, which employ materials as diverse as cake, barbed wire, live goldfish and a bubble-making machine.
