范勃在致辞中对加里·希尔在广美举行中国首次大型个人作品展表示衷心祝贺和热烈欢迎,并指出,加里·希尔是美国当代影像艺术的奠基人之一。自上世纪60、70年代起,加里·希尔就开启了对新媒介的探索和综合材料的艺术实验,视频监视器、多轨录音带、视频合成器、声音合成器等成为他影像装置艺术的标志性组成;同时,他最早生发了“电子语言学”概念,关注图像、声音和语言在电子媒体这一特定领域中的相互关系及作用机制。本次展览以“景别”为主题,呼应的正是加里·希尔通过“电子语言学”对语言、身体、意识和知觉复杂关联的多样实践,以及对自我、机器、媒介和技术多重互动的复合探索。尤为难得的是,展览除了影像作品外,还并置展示了大量相关文献,这使得本次展览成为一个很有意义的当代样本,不仅使观众得以全方位地了解加里·希尔的艺术实践及其创作方法论,更将启发人们对艺术媒介、语言、内容、样态的可能性的多样认知。

In his speech, Fan Bo expressed his sincere congratulations and warm welcome to Gary Hill for holding his first large-scale solo exhibition in China at Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, and pointed out that Gary Hill is one of the founders of contemporary American video art. Since the 1960s and 1970s, Gary Hill has started to explore new media and conduct artistic experiments with integrated materials. Video monitors, multi-track tapes, video synthesizers, and sound synthesizers have become the iconic components of his video installation art. At the same time, he was the first to develop the concept of "electronic linguistics", focusing on the relationship and mechanism of images, sounds, and language in the specific field of electronic media. This exhibition is themed "Continuous Happening", which echoes Gary Hill's diverse practices of the complex relationship between language, body, consciousness, and perception through "electronic linguistics", as well as his complex exploration of the multiple interactions between self, machine, media, and technology. What is particularly rare is that in addition to video works, the exhibition also displays a large number of related documents, which makes this exhibition a very meaningful contemporary sample. It not only allows the audience to fully understand Gary Hill's artistic practice and his creative methodology, but also inspires people to have a diverse understanding of the possibilities of artistic media, language, content, and form.

 

加里·希尔对广州美术学院给予展览的大力支持和热情欢迎表示感谢,他认为很多行为艺术是风格化的,他尝试通过组织不同维度的方式和媒介,去更好地表达他对语言、身体、意识和知觉复杂联系的深刻思考,探讨自我、机器、媒介和技术的多重互动,为大家带来别样的艺术感受。

Gary Hill expressed his gratitude to the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts for its strong support and warm welcome to the exhibition. He believes that many performance arts are stylized. He tries to better express his profound thoughts on the complex connection between language, body, consciousness and perception by organizing different dimensional methods and media, exploring the multiple interactions between self, machine, media and technology, and bringing different artistic feelings to everyone.

 

开幕现场,加里·希尔将其于美术馆创作的作品《论颜色》捐赠给了广州美术学院,范勃院长为其颁发捐赠证书。

At the opening ceremony, Gary Hill donated his work "Remarks on Color" created in the Art Museum to the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, and President Fan Bo presented him with a donation certificate.

 

同时正在美术馆举行个展“变幻的场景”的荷兰艺术家保罗·希格斯(Paul Segers),也将其作品《抽油机帮派/纵火者/伤口》(The Pump Jack Gang / Firestarter / The Wound)捐赠给了学校,蔡拥华副院长为其颁发了捐赠证书。

Paul Segers, who is holding a solo exhibition "The Scene Changes" at the museum, also donated his work "The Pump Jack Gang / Firestarter / The Wound" to GAFA. Vice President Cai Yonghua presented him with a donation certificate.

艺术家简介ABOUT THE ARTIST
加里·希尔(Gary Hill1951 年生于加利福尼亚州圣莫尼卡)曾担任中央美术学院特聘教授,并分别于2005年和2011年获得波兰波兹南美术学院(2005年)和美国华盛顿州西雅图康沃尔艺术学院授予的荣誉博士学位。

Gary Hill ( b. 1951, Santa Monica, California) was a distinguished professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts and received honorary doctorates from the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznan, Poland (2005) and Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, Washington, USA, in 2011.

20世纪 70年代初以来,加里·希尔一直从事雕塑、声音、视频、装置和表演等多种媒体的创作。他长期从事跨媒体工作,不断探索从语言的物理性、联觉和知觉难题到本体论空间和观众互动性等一系列问题。他的作品曾在世界各地的博物馆和机构展出,包括在巴黎卡地亚当代艺术基金会、旧金山现代艺术博物馆、巴黎蓬皮杜艺术中心、纽约古根海姆博物馆、巴塞尔当代艺术博物馆、巴塞罗那当代艺术博物馆和沃尔夫斯堡艺术博物馆等举办个展。受委托的项目包括为伦敦科学博物馆和华盛顿州西雅图的西雅图中央公共图书馆创作的作品,以及为意大利罗马竞技场和维纳斯神庙创作的装置和表演作品。希尔曾获得美国国家艺术基金会、洛克菲勒基金会和古根海姆基金会颁发的奖学金,并获得过众多奖项和荣誉,其中最著名的奖项有威尼斯双年展金狮奖雕塑奖(1995年)、麦克阿瑟奖(1998年)、库尔特·施维特斯奖(2000年)。

Gary Hill has worked with a broad range of media – including sculpture, sound, video, installation and performance – since the early 1970s. His longtime work with intermedia continues to explore an array of issues ranging from the physicality of language, synesthesia, and perceptual conundrums to ontological space and viewer interactivity.  Exhibitions of his work have been presented at museums and institutions worldwide, including solo exhibitions at the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, Paris; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Guggenheim Museum SoHo, New York; Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Basel; Museu d’Art Contemporani, Barcelona; and Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, among others.  Commissioned projects include works for the Science Museum in London and the Seattle Central Public Library in Seattle, Washington, and an installation and performance work for the Coliseum and Temple of Venus and Rome in Italy.  Hill has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Rockefeller and Guggenheim Foundations and has been the recipient of numerous awards and honors, most notably the Leone d’Oro Prize for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale (1995), a John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation Fellowship Award (1998), the Kurt-Schwitters-Preis (2000).
