Spring Festival is a group performance art

[Editor's note] Each year's “Spring Festival” is a powerful group performance. Its shock is like a routine delivery. Pain has to actively participate in and join. The 18 martial arts used when buying tickets are used. The momentary warmth of returning home, this process and journey is not a small test and expectation for everyone who wants to go home. With the continuous increase in "Spring Festival travel" experience, behavior artists and curators will think about how to think about this social theme, and how will they view the "artistic effects" produced by the Spring Festival travel? Yachang Art Network reporter interviewed the performance artist to scrape the child and participate in the planning of the two premise behavior arts festival, the net editor-in-chief Yuan Yixuan. When asked how to view the "Spring Festival" from an artistic point of view, Yuan Yuxuan said: "When the bus station is in the station of the train station, the crowds of people are bustling and coming and going. In such a destiny, the migration is to people. The long and tedious journey of life that is annihilated in an instant, a movement that constantly consumes life energy is like a frown, a look back, and art or not, only for joking.”

Yachang Art Network: As a performance artist has not thought of "Spring Festival" as a theme?

Scraping children: I thought about helping out in the past and I wanted to use the train station in the past. I just didn't think of making works with the theme of Spring Festival. I generally only ground in my head. Nor is it accustomed to using the work to support something or to oppose anything. Therefore, events and some grand things will not be the subject of my works.

Yachang Art Network: What do you think is the biggest challenge to the daily life experience during the Spring Festival?

Shave the child: people are far away: If you decide to go home, the city where you work starts to become unfamiliar, even though "back home is also a stranger." Expectation, excitement, and anxiety make the whole process of returning home exciting. Therefore, there is no longer "everyday life" during this period, but it is the Spring Festival life. Moreover, we will soon be involved in this global "great" return movement.

Yachang Art Network: If you look at the "Spring Festival" from an artistic perspective, what do you think should be done?

Scraping children: "Spring Festival" is not very suitable for viewing from an artistic point of view. Music watched the stimulus and watched despair. It's hard to hear that something is called spectacular. But we can really see poetry from everyone who is eager to go home, because the background is no longer an unreasonable mechanism, nor physical discomfort, but emotion. I like personal, group things can make people very uncomfortable. Therefore, I seldom rush to the spring to return home. I usually go to meet my family in the summer only. Of course, it is also difficult to look at things like the Spring Festival from an artistic point of view. Just one thing we all know: As long as there is someone there will be art. Therefore, there are so many people who are not afraid of queuing; they are not afraid of being overcrowded; they are not afraid of being cold and have only one purpose: to go home for the New Year!

Yuan Zhenxuan, Editor-in-Chief of the Premise Performance Festival who has planned the two premise performance arts festivals, said: “What is the angle of art? In the final analysis, it is still a person’s point of view. Everyone will have their own point of entry, and art will be the same.”

Yachang Art Network: Should performance artists take "Spring Festival" as an art theme?

Yuan Yuxuan: In recent years, the art circle has had many discussions about “art intervention in society”. There have been continuous trials and creators who have practiced for many years. In particular, behavior artists' attention and creation of social topics have always been extensive. As one of the social issues in China, Spring Festival is not a subject of public concern. However, whether or not performance artists themselves are interested in whether they can produce excellent works and whether they must use this as their subject matter to create can not and should not be conclusive.

Whether the artist chooses what theme to choose from should be determined based on the artist’s creative interests. Of course, some “people and artists” may have task assignments and exhibition propositions. But historical experience tells us that The way is usually ridiculous. If the artist himself has enough interest and research on this subject matter, then the instincts and inconveniences of his works will eventually come up with very shocking works.

Yachang Art Network: Spring Festival is not a group of Chinese people's collective arts?

Yuan Yuxuan: From ** to grab salt, from the pursuit of luxury goods to the whirlpool of Finch furniture, the Chinese collective behavior is very large, including the Spring Festival is always the staged epic drama. Behind the Spring Festival phenomenon involves a series of deeper and more long-standing issues. For example, China's current unreasonable political system that does not recognize freedom of movement has prevented many people from reuniting with their workplaces. For example, the government has encouraged self-employment after the reform and opening up. The economic development in urban and rural areas is uneven. Many urban policies have intentionally or unintentionally prevented the arrival of migrants to settle down, and at the same time they have created a deep family view of the Chinese and other reasons. A series of problems eventually led to the annual tide of migration on the land of China. This is a collective phenomenon that eventually emerged after integrating many social issues. However, it is too joke to say that it is a “performance art”.

Yachang Art Network: What do you think is the biggest challenge to the daily life experience during the Spring Festival?

Yuan Yuxuan: The Spring Festival made the Chinese people an angry migratory bird. Most people go through this kind of walk every year, from north to south, to another north and south, and people are panicking, proud, sad, pressing, and aggrieved for this non-pragmatic journey: China is really a large population. There are so many contradictions that people and people have so many differences that cannot be solved. This society is full of unknown and difficult obstacles. The Spring Festival is like an hourglass with a one-year cycle in the long river of time. There are many different types of work on the weekdays. At the end of the year, there was finally a consensus: The rest of the year was a reunion. .

Yachang Art Network: If you look at the "Spring Festival" from an artistic perspective, what do you think should be done?

Yuan Yuxuan: What is the perspective of art? In the final analysis, it is still a human perspective. Everyone will have their own entry point, and art will do the same. As a person I personally feel as though I am embarrassed by not being with my family when I am fleeing from Spring Festival for the Spring Festival. In terms of citizenship, I am dissatisfied with the issue of land that is tied up by most people; as a media person In terms of the art industry workers, I'm interested in the demise of the Chinese people's increasingly indifferent ethnic relations and their rural customs. In fact, it is difficult for China's transportation system to bear such a large amount of transportation pressure every year. It is impossible to cut off the family blood from the family, but how much harm does it bring to the psychological health of the migrating people? All issues can be viewed as an art perspective, but only in the final form.

As the bus station is standing at the train station square in the aviation transfer hall, people of various colors are bustling and coming and going, and in such a fate, the transfer is a boring and long-lived and annihilate life journey. For people, an action that continuously consumes life energy. Like a frown, a look back, and artistic or not, just make a joke.
