"Limbo Grid"过渡状态

film and installation

摄像与布景

In his installation Limbo Grid, Rolf A. Kluenter sets a film projection, which documents a variety of nightshift scenes at central Shanghai's construction sites, against a net-like structure made of the fragile blackened Nepalese handmade paper that hangs down from the ceiling and divides the space into two rooms.

Rolf A. Kluenter在"过渡状态"的布景中设置了幻灯片,幻灯片中记录着上海市中心变换多样的工地夜班场景; 尼泊尔手工制作的黑色脆纸构建成的网状结构,由天花板垂落下来的, 将空间分隔成两个房间。

The space of stage候台BACK at 696 Weihai Road invites the visitor to walk through the installation, watching the film, feeling the structure and experiencing the blackness. This might be Kluenter's intended process, which inextricably interweaves transparency and denseness; fragility and strength.

展览地点位于威海路696号, stage候台BACK 诚邀来访者步入整个布景,观看摄影/影片,亲身感受建筑结构,体验黑暗状态。这或许就是艺术家Kluenter的创作本意所在 :无法摆脱地交织着透明与稠密,脆弱与坚强。

A Limbo is a space that is between two places. It is a place or state of oblivion to which persons or things are regarded as being relegated when cast aside, forgotten, past, or out of date. Spiritually and in scholastic theology, limbo is an extramundane region where certain classes of souls were supposed to await their judgment.

Limbo 意为两处中间的位置,常被理解为被漠视的处所或状态。 当事物或人结束,被搁置,遗忘,或者过时, 这里便是他们的归宿。从精神层面上以学术的理论探究, Limbo 是超越现实世界的地带,各种灵魂将在这里等待着对他们的最终宣判。

With the exhibition Limbo Grid, stage候台BACK proudly announces the soft opening of the future collaboration between stage候台BACK Shanghai 696 and TEAPOT Gallery, from Cologne in Germany. stage候台BACK自豪地宣布LIMBO GRID展览将成为上海 stage候台BACK 与德国科隆的 TEAPOT Gallery 之间未来协作的软开幕。
