作为“行动与录像”中瑞当代艺术系列项目的第一弹，今年４月，民生现代美术馆有幸邀请到瑞士新生代艺术家伊夫.内茨哈默来到美术馆进行为期两周的多媒体装置现场创作。

伊夫.内茨哈默1970年出生在沙夫豪森，现生活在苏黎世。曾在苏黎世艺术与设计学院学习视觉设计，其作品将眼光投射在人类社会的基本原则和潜意识层面上，以动画短片和多样的投影方式、奇怪的人物形象、交织着自然物体和梦境的奇景著称。通过各种俏皮的重新组合，作品探索了我们存在的黑暗面，愉悦与不快结合，死亡与生命相连成奇异的生物。作品场景设计从微观到巨大，不断尝试扩大感官的界限。

伊夫.内茨哈默曾获2006年瑞士艺术奖及大部分瑞士最重要的艺术奖项，曾参加2007年威尼斯双年展（瑞士馆），以及第二十届卡塞尔文献展等多个国际展览。

本项目旨在探索艺术家创作中出现的，时间、现场、观看之间的关系。民生现代美术馆这一新生的由银行投资的艺术空间，正好成为所探索关联的空间，并为发现一个新的生产、呈现关系提供了可能。在时间上，开幕既是创作的开始，展出变成一个不断呈现、变幻的工作过程，而展览结束才是作品和过程都将面对的了局。现场是在创作过程中不可见的从思想转换为“物”（视觉材料和呈现）的过程，观看最终成为窥探这一过程的日常，如同游园或是漫步。
