天灼酸俱乐部

文: 赵梦莎

天灼酸俱乐部，是由艺术家陈天灼在星空间建造的临时俱乐部。当然，你也可以将它理解成一座避难所、冥想室或朝拜堂。在这里，陈天灼以艺术家的身份进行一次召集，动员一切可能的观众，通过一场狂欢集会来测试普通观众以及艺术界内部对观看展览体验的双重反应。在这一场集会之中，画廊作为艺术宣传与流通平台的政治空间含义将被艺术家恶意隐去，陈天灼妄图能颠倒昼夜，让画廊转身成为艺术家、自由职业者、意见领袖、网络红人、毒贩、骗子、掮客、买办们的冒险乐园。

……

酸俱乐部欢迎你。艺术家，欢迎你，失意者，欢迎你，短暂而伟大的幻觉。欢迎交换体液和思想，享受廉价卑微的快感，狂欢痛饮有限的明天。（节选）

 

TIANZHUO’S ACID  CLUB

TEXT: Sasha Zhao

Tianzhuo’s Acid Club is a temporary club created by artist Tianzhuo in the Star Gallery space. Of course, one may understand the club as a refuge, a meditation room, or a temple for worship. Here, Tianzhuo leverages his position as artist to mobilize all manner of visitors in a carnivalesque gathering, effectively testing the dichotomy of exhibition experience between ordinary visitors and art world insiders. With this congregation, the artist maliciously annuls the political implications of the gallery as a platform for the promotion and dissemination of art. It is a vain attempt to reverse day and night, to turn the gallery into an adventure park for artists, freelancers, opinion leaders, Internet celebrities, drug dealers, con artists, brokers, and buyers.

…

Acid club welcomes you. Artists are welcome. Losers are welcome. Amidst the brilliance of illusion, you are welcome to exchange bodily fluids, to exchange ideas, to seek cheap thrills, to drink in celebration of a short-lived tomorrow. (Excerpts)
