Kind Stranger鈥檚 private collection
Print Edition
UNArt Center is presenting its opening show 鈥淭he Kind Stranger鈥 until October 20. A total of 43 art works from 37 artists are on display, including paintings, installations, sculptures, photography, video and performance.
The art center has been created in the old 1950s Dongchang Cinema.
Titled 鈥淭he Kind Stranger,鈥 the show centers on the new conditions and conflicts of a modern human society driven by an accelerating technological revolution.
The entire exhibition is designed with a fictional scenario.
鈥淭he Kind Stranger鈥 is the protagonist of a story from the future who invites people to enjoy his/her 鈥減rivate collections鈥 in sound and vibe through various exhibits and texts in physical or digital forms.
Artists include aaajiao, Bi Rongrong, C茅dric Van Parys, Fito Segrera, Louisa Galiardi, Marc Lee and many more, who are mostly based in Shanghai. The artworks were created from 2008 to 2018.
鈥淗umanistic concepts are intertwined with the evolving progress of our technical environment,鈥 said Bai Zhifei, one of the curators.
鈥淭he so-called humanistic and technological should not be considered separately.
鈥淚n addition, we might need to reconsider how we can be prepared for the upcoming 鈥榥ew era?鈥 And would the 鈥榥ew era鈥 be truly 鈥榥ew?鈥
鈥淭he exhibition does not attempt to provide any solid answer for these interrogations, but as a cultural event, it may still tap into the situation that modern people are all immersed in. It is a time of significant transitions, something we all have to go through.鈥
