A work by Geng Jianyi at ‘DIAL ‘62761232’. A small paper card was placed in a black paper package. When exposed to light, some change would take place and images would slowly appear. As long as the work would have been requested to be viewed more than twice, a relay would be built between different viewers.

《快遞展》中耿建翌的參展作品。藝術家自述:
“黑紙袋裡有個小卡片,打開遇見光會有變化。變化不是瞬間的,圖像一點點顯現出來。如果一個快遞被點兩次以上,在觀看的人中就自然形成接力。”

Context

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.
