展览介绍:
从太阳的角度来看,作者一边围绕着太阳,以几近正圆的轨迹,高速运转着,一边又以同样的高速,同地球一起自转着。然而,从读者的角度看来,作者看上去是静止不动的。
鉴于日常生活的种种烦琐,弗雷德里克·福亚特时常需要重新安置家中事物,组装可移动物品的过程带来了戏剧化的小片段。在其作品中,福亚特深入进行了若干种类的动作研究。无视物理定律,他以日常事物构建起实验性装置。生活中常见物品和旅行纪念品是他的材料来源。家用电器和工具既是他的道具也是作品的主体,发掘其自身驱动力或将其能量转换到其他物体上。
这些循环往复的立体装置在观看者的想象中得到进一步的发展。从电锤到音响系统和厨具--技术设备都很简单新颖,门外汉都有能力将这些东西别出心裁的利用起来。洗衣机的部件当作月亮,电唱机的轴承带动运转轨道。福亚特的叙事性动力研究将观众的注意力导向日常设备后迥然无踪的人类,游走在悲喜之间,动感而诗意。
除了装置和物品,福亚特也使用视频,素描,拼贴等媒介进行创作。其作品的共性是结构的简洁。每件作品都是一组套件,能够拆卸还原成原始形态。
在ALEXANDER OCHS画廊的草场地"灰房子"艺术家居留项目的三个月期间,北京丰富多彩的艺术形式,技法和中国式的即兴创作方式(每种结论都对应一个问题)给福亚特带来灵感,从而专门为此次展览创作了一系列的机械装置。
From view of the sun, the author of this lines moves with high speed on an approximately circular course around the sun and at the same time he moves, likewise with high speed, in a circle around the axis of the earth. From the perspective of the reader, however, the author seems to stand still.
Confronting the perfidities of day-to-day life, Frederik Foert constantly rearranges his household and generates small cinematic moments by constructing kinetic objects. In his work, Foert creates motion studies of several kinds. Ignoring the laws of physics, he builds artistic experimental setups out of everyday items. As resources for this, he uses his immediate living environment and travelling souvenirs. Household-appliances and tools are props and protagonists at the same time, exploiting their own drive mechanism or transferring their power to other objects.
The scripts of these three-dimensional film-loops can be further developed in the viewer's imagination. From the hammer drill to the hi-fi system and the food processor - no technical equipment is too complex or banal, to be able to be transformed by a layman hand for a new purpose. To the moon on a washing machine, into orbit by record player! Foert's narrative motion studies draw the viewer's attention to the apparently absent people behind the technical equipment and always walk on the tight-rope between humour and tragedy. Poetry in Motion!
In addition to those installations and objects, Frederik Foert creates video works, drawings, and collages. What they all have in common is the simplicity of their construction. Every piece is a construction kit and materials can be reinstated back into their original surroundings.
While having a three month residency at the "Grey House" studio of ALEXANDER OCHS GALLERIES BERLIN | BEIJING in Caochangdi Art Village, he got inspired by China's colorful arts and crafts culture and the chinese way of improvisation (for every solution there's a problem). And so he created all mechanical objects and ready mades especially for this exhibition.
