A work by Hu Jieming at ‘DIAL ‘62761232’.
《快遞展》中胡介鳴的參展作品。藝術家自述:
“作品選用中國社會主義計劃經濟時期用以購買各類生活用品的票證作為作為作品的主體,通過快遞員模擬當年居委會工作人員上門發放票證的方式,將作品發放給觀眾。選用票證的理由首先是這些票證曾經充當過計劃經濟體制和百姓日常生活關系最為密切的媒介之一,是人們最為熟悉的東西之一。其次票證是我國年計劃經濟時期物資緊缺,人民生活不得不精打細算的歷史見證。這些設計業余、印刷粗糙、沒有任何防偽措施的票證曾經遏止了多少人的欲望。該干什麼就干什麼,是計劃經濟下的常態,票證有助於消費的專一性價值感。在觀念匱乏、作品泛濫、消費無序的時期重溫一下票證的這些屬性也許會覺得有些逗人。”
Dial 62761232 was the name of an express delivery company that worked with a group of Shanghai-based artists to bring the exhibition to the homes of audience members. The delivery company assigned 15 couriers to the task, who were trained at the BizArt Center. Each courier was given a suicase with a number of works by the artists. Each of the 15 suitcases contained the same works, and each participating artist was identified by name. When a courier delivered the exhibition via suitcase, the viewer would have to choose number in order to see the works.
