20 10 Shanghai biennale

20 10 the 8th Shanghai biennale will open at Shanghai art museum on123 10 with the theme of "roving rehearsal". "Tour" is a tour and return, and "rehearsal" is an arrangement and deduction. "roving rehearsal" is open and fluid, emphasizing the planning situation and development process of the exhibition, and emphasizing the creation and production consciousness of the exhibition. During the rehearsal tour, the exhibition space is not only a place to display works of art, but also a productive, changing and trial-and-error emotional scene. The purpose of this biennale is to build a travelling theatre for debates, exhibitions, performances and productions. In June 10, 1 1, the second news briefing of the 8th Shanghai Biennale was held in China Art Museum. Fan Dian, curator of China Art Museum, Li Lei, executive curator of Shanghai Art Museum, Gao Shiming, vice president of the School of Arts and Humanities of China Academy of Fine Arts, and other curatorial team members attended the press conference.

Biennale has developed into a global cultural phenomenon. In recent years, its institutionalization and homogenization have become the focus of international art reflection and criticism. "Roving Rehearsal" attempts to take Shanghai as the cultural base, test the academic thinking of Biennale on different mechanisms and platforms, and jointly discuss the internal boundary of exhibition-production field, the relationship with social space, the social participation of contemporary art and the challenge of institutional criticism history to the exhibition system itself. In this sense, "roving rehearsal" is a reflection on the contemporary art exhibition system, and the exhibition mechanism of the Biennale can be optimized from this reflection.

The biggest feature of the 8th Shanghai Biennale is the academic structure, which is the carrier of this Biennale. This Biennale focuses on "rehearsal", which is mainly manifested in three aspects: First, the interdisciplinary artistic production mode. Starting from the cross-subjectivity of theater and rehearsal, this Biennale will emphasize the group interaction of creation and promote the exploration and presentation of specific scenes of contemporary artists. Second, the process of contemporary works of art, which is a more attractive and effective visual text; Third, the exhibition tour, which focuses on mobile and dynamic works, is a new mode and structure of the exhibition, focusing on the discussion of the theme, and finally bringing the results back to the main venue in Shanghai.
