多·展——南京多攒艺术地图项目

2014-11-11

多攒艺术地图是一项历时两年并仍在持续的艺术计划。它借鉴艺术地图的形式，试探讨艺术与城市、商业、大众等一系列当下的艺术生态问题。

关于“艺术该如何走向公众?”这个问题，不同时代与体制都有其特殊方式。在当下,无论是官方的，商业的, 还是学院的艺术创造者, 都以自我完善为目标展现自己。而作为城市文化艺术受众群的老百姓们常常只是作品的被迫观看者, 仅从地位与商业而非审美角度看待这些作品。在缺少交流的环境中, 商业艺术影响下的艺术繁荣表象将始终是少数人的自娱自乐, 它和社会的真实文化状况总是存在隔阂。

城市中名目繁多的地图代表了城市的历史, 现代化程度与经济等, 指导大众的日常生活。而作为现代城市文化名片的艺术地图却屈指可数。在我们看来，不仅大城市或经济发达地区，每个城市都应该拥有这样的地图, 它是使艺术生产与消费良性循环的媒介, 记录城市文化现象的转变过程。

区别于其它艺术地图的商业性运作。多攒艺术地图更强调传统的沟通方式, 选择纸媒印刷, 递送, 免费领取。在真实的时空中提供艺术家, 展示地点和观众三者一个艺术信息平台, 使其相互关注、依存、促进。

Duozan Nanjing art map is an art project that has lasted for 2 years. Referring to the form of art map, it explores the present eco problems of art, city, commerce and the public.

Regarding the issue of “how art should walk towards the public?”, there are particular approaches in different ages and systems. At present, no matter being official, commercial or scholastic, the art producer should express himself under the purpose of self-improvement. However, as the receiver of city culture, the public normally act like the compulsory watchers, only reviewing those works from the perspective of reputation and commerce rather than aesthetics. With the lack of communicating environment, the prosperity of art, influenced by commercial art, will always be the self-entertainment of the minority, and isolated to the real culture situation of this society.

The vast maps in the city represent the history, modernization and economy of the city and guide the people’s daily life. Still, there are only limited art maps which delegate the name cards of modern city culture. In our view, not only big cities or developed areas, but each city should own this sort of maps as well. It is the medium for virtuous cycle of art production and consumption, and records the transformation of city culture.

Distinguished from the commercial operation of other art maps, Duozan art map emphasizes the traditional way of communication, and choose paper printing, delivery and free claim. It provides an art information platform that incorporates the artists, exhibition spots and audiences in the real space, and makes them watch, coexist and facilitate with each other.
