2018年3月17日至4月15日
云隐·西山国际艺术交流中心艾维美术馆
在“人力驱动：一场艺术与骑行的邂逅”艺术展上，我们尝试呈现那些与自行车精神与记忆有关的艺术，那种以“个人自己的力量”去践行的艺术，那种向往融入到比自身更广阔世界中去的驱动力。“人力驱动”不只是自行车的运动原理，也是一种内在的美学品格。在这里，艺术家们让自己的双手乃至整个身体完全投入到创作表达中，以此推动某些事物前行。

HUMAN DRIVEN
– An Encounter Between Artistic Expression and Cycling
“Human driven: – an encounter between artistic expression and cycling” is an opportunity to look at bicycles not as a part of routine but as on art inspiration. We tried to show some art that is related to spirit and memories connected with bicycles, an art which is created by “human power” – the kind of driving force that strives to integrate into the vast, bigger than one self’s world. “Human driven” is not only the bicycle movement principle, but also an internal aesthetic quality. Here, artists let their hands and even their whole bodies to fully participate in the creative expression.

Not Yet Complete — One Volume Artist Book Project 2017
2018年1月27日–2月3日
昆明苔画廊
策展人：罗菲
Curator: Luo Fei
Jan 27 – Feb 3, 2018
Tai Project Gallery in Kunming
“合订本2017”除了出版《尚未完成——合订本2017》艺术家书籍，还包括一个在昆明苔画廊举办的实体展览。我们收到总共110位艺术家和不同行业的人们的作品，他们除了来自云南，还有北京、河南、广西、福建、四川以及挪威、美国、日本、孟加拉等国家和地区的艺术家。他们中有家庭主妇、儿童、青年艺术家也有许多杰出的艺术界大咖，每个人都有一件或者无数件尚未完成的“作品”，正如艺术家李季所言：“人生的太多事情其实永远也无法完成，而且也不需要去完成⋯⋯”策展人罗菲这样解释此次策展理念：“‘尚未完成’源于对乌托邦的怀疑，对虚无的怀疑，对普遍有效的怀疑……在没有完成的人生旅程中，每个人都充满可能性，每一刻都可能被重塑，做这个展览，就是为了把某个时刻留给未来……”
The “One Volume Artist Book 2017” includes publishing “Not Yet Complete —One Volume Artist Book of 2017” and holding an entity exhibition in Tai Project, Kunming. We have received 110 artworks in total from artists and people from different industries. They come from not only Yunnan province, but also other provinces of China such as Beijing, Henan, Guangxi, Fujian, Sichuan and other countries like Norway, America, Japan, and Bengal. Some of them are housewives, children, young artists as well as eximious proficient in art circles and each of them has at least one “artwork” which is not yet complete. As Li Ji, an artist, says, “Most things in our lives can never be completed, and not necessary …” Luo Fei, the curator, has an explanation on the idea of this exhibition, “’Not yet complete’ leads one to doubt utopia, nihilism, and the validity of universalism … In the long and not-yet-complete journey of life, everyone has infinite possibilities. And of course, everyone can be depressed because of ‘not yet complete’… However, as mankind, we have begun but are not complete. Every moment of present may be remodeled.”

独自清唱：刘丽芬个展
时间：2015年2月11日下午
地点：昆明金鼎山北路苔画廊
刘丽芬的绘画是带有自传色彩的心灵叙事，在奇幻、诗性与情欲的相互晕染中，那些瑰丽的色彩和神秘的形象被释放出来，无数条通往身体之下的幽径得以形成，得以生长，艺术家在这些幽径中不断接近自己，描述自己，成为自己。看刘丽芬的画，就是这样一种引人入胜的幽径之旅。

Artists Roles/Artists Rules II
China/Sweden Art Exchange Project (Station Kunming)
Artists Roles / Artists Rules is an exhibition on the artist’s mission, responsibility, duty and position in society- sometimes enforced, sometimes self-imposed. Each artist has worked individually from a personal standpoint on an individual basis as well as with the vision of how things ideally could be.
The origins of the project is the desire to explore and discuss the differences as well as the similarities in working conditions for artists in China and Sweden.
