ACENTRICSPACE ART WORKSHOP
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Contemporary Art
Deconstruction of Experimental Art 101
“当代艺术漫游指南”是ACENTRICSPACE的常驻艺术工作坊项目。基于ACENTRICSPACE所提倡的自由，无国界的创作理念，工作坊项目致力于分享海内外多元、新颖的艺术创作方式和美学观念。研发在媒材和主题方面具备实验性与多样性的艺术工作坊，让本地社区成员能够更沉浸于体验艺术所蕴含的无穷尽的想象力与可能性。工作坊竭力联动国际艺术家与上海本地艺术家社群，促成灵感的碰撞，生产更多前所未有的，便于公众参与到艺术之中的实践方式。由此激发与哺育社区的日常美学。
“The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Contemporary Art” is ACENTRICSPACE’s ongoing art workshop program. Based on the idea of liberal and borderless practice proposed by ACENTRICSPACE, The workshop program is committed to sharing diverse and original artistic practices and aesthetic ideas at home and abroad. Develop experimental and diverse art workshops in terms of mediums and subjects, so that members of the community can be more immersed in experiencing the endless imagination and possibilities within art. The workshop strives to connect international artists and local artist communities in Shanghai, stimulate the collision of inspiration, and produce more unprecedented practices that facilitate the public’s participation in art. This inspires and nurtures the everyday aesthetics of the community.
Two key components including Art Theory and Practice Workshop
作为“当代艺术漫游指南”艺术家工作坊项目的核心观念输出环节，有别于传统的艺术史与理论编年史似的梳理式的教学案本，以传递独创的认知体系为方法，在轻松的交谈中快速带领参与者融贯领悟当代最前沿的实验艺术创作的底层逻辑。这是阿里阿德涅的线团，它将引导好奇着、渴望着却仍徘徊在现当代艺术迷宫之中的访客，径直走进抽象与神秘的前卫现象背后的核心腹地。
As the core concept output part of “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Contemporary Art” artist workshop program, it is different from the traditional art history and theoretical chronicle-like teaching case and uses the method of conveying an original cognitive system to quickly lead participants to comprehend the underlying logic of contemporary cutting-edge experimental art creation in a relaxed conversation. This is Ariadne’s ball of thread, which will guide curious and eager visitors who are still wandering in the maze of modern and contemporary art, straight into the core behind the abstract and mysterious avant-garde phenomenon.
个人创作可被视为对存在主体性不断发出追问的方式进行自我观察和模式总结与生产，同时尝试在越发被拟象与景观所定义的社会中需找一种具有普遍性的定位工具；（创作媒介以装置，写作，绘画与实验影像的结合为主）
2018年于伦敦发起公共介入艺术实验小组-Studio Lostpropertise/失物招领，主要在跨个体性公共介入与地缘文化异同的方向进行艺术实践与创作，小组创作曾多次被国际、地方媒体报道及奖项提名；
2021年联合发起了朱家角在地艺文社区-不急宇宙，尝试以中介艺术与生活的方式锚定一个具体的时空，以更多元的艺术方式拓广艺术可能具备的社会/日常介入意义。
Independent creator. Graduated from Central Saint Martins (MA) and University of Leeds (BA).
In recent years, he has been creating in three fields in parallel:
His creation can be regarded as a progress of self-observation, in which he constantly questions the shifting subjectivity of existence, by which he tries to make a universal anchor that helps voyagers don’t get lost when they are roaming in the drifting societies that are mostly increasingly constructed by simulacra and spectacle; (by using the combined medias such as art installation, writing, painting, and experimental moving images)
In 2018, he launched a public intervention art experimental group – Studio Lostpropertise. It mainly conducts cross-individual artistic practices which allows public participation. The group’s creations have been reported by international and local media many times, and nominated for awards;
In 2021, he co-founded Zhujiajiao’s local art and culture community – Bujism, trying to build up an, in a way, an observational lab that frames a specific time and space, by which to study and analysis the significance of art intermediary in social and daily intervention.
相伴于头脑扩容型的艺术理论项目，实践工作坊强调现当代前卫艺术形式生产的直接体验，体验动手创作的乐趣。实践环节中，ACENTRICSPACE邀请了诸多拥有海内外顶尖艺术教育背景的艺术家、实践者，将为参与工作坊的体验者们提供他们最别出心裁的创作方式与方法，并致力于在最短的时间内让大家能够以参与的方式感受到每位分享艺术家完整的创作历程。
Alongside the mind-expanding Art Theory program, the Practice Workshop emphasizes the first-hand experience of the development of modern and contemporary avant-garde art forms and the joy of hands-on practice. In the practice session, ACENTRICSPACE invited many artists and practitioners with top art education backgrounds at home and abroad. They will provide the participants in the workshop with their most original creative methods and are committed to allowing everyone to experience the complete creative process of each lead artist in a participatory manner in the shortest possible time.
Contemporary Moving Image Workshop
在短期体验工作坊中，艺术家将分享他自己在‘动画’方向中的实验创作以及其他活跃于当代实验影像创作领域中的艺术家的独特创作方式方法。并根据每位参与者自身的当下灵感，以最简单的创作材料辅助他们获得独自创作前卫实验‘动画’的体验。
长期工坊中，艺术家将从叙事构思阶段开始帮助体验者建立自己的故事架构并最终生产出属于自己的独特影像语言来表达他们的观念。
In the short-term workshop, the artist will share his experimental creation in the direction of moving image/ video works. Other artists who are active in the field of contemporary experimental video creation will be also introduced, and their unique creative methods will be analyzed in detail. According to each participant’s current inspiration, the artist will assist them in obtaining the experience of creating avant-garde experimental moving image artwork alone by using the simplest creative materials.
In the long-term workshop, artists will start from the stage of shaping the narrative conception to help experiencers build their story structure and finally produce their unique video language to express their ideas.

当代艺术综合材料工作坊
Contemporary Mixed Medium Workshop
在艺术家目前的创作中，重新审视其成长记忆中对其‘个体塑造’产生过重要影响的社会符号，并由此以儿时仰望攀登的身体记忆，融合综合材料的探索与架上绘画。艺术家希望以探索“儿童绘画”为表达形式，不再塑造或反映美学，就像其初衷一样，让个体与集体的符号消解在图像中。在工作坊中与参与者一起探索综合材料在当代艺术绘画中的可能性，从表达形式到概念辅助，甚至主导作品的潜力，一起重新审视材料与绘画的关系。
In the artist’s current practice, he re-examines the social symbols in his growth memory that have had a crucial impact on his “individual shaping”, and thus integrates the exploration of mixed mediums and painting with the body memory of looking up at climbing as a child. The artist hopes to explore “children’s painting” as a form of expression, no longer shape or reflect aesthetics, just like its original intention, and let individual and collective symbols dissolve in the image. In the workshop, participants will explore the possibility of composite materials in contemporary art painting, from expressive form to conceptual assistance, and even the potential of leading the artwork, and re-examine the relationship between materials and painting.

Contemporary Image Masking Workshop
通过工作坊活动，体验运用胶带的粘贴与撕拉，使用常见网络图像，创造图像与自身再解读的矛盾，通过移像变形抽离制作生成新的画面。通过胶带的遮盖，剥离表层的皮肤，我们又能创造出什么熟悉却又不熟悉的图像呢？期待参与者的创造解读。
Through the workshop program, participants will experience masking and tearing of tape, use familiar online images to create contradictions between them and their reinterpretations and generate new images through shifting, deforming, and extracting. By covering images with tape and peeling off superficial layers, what familiar yet unfamiliar images can we create? We look forward to the creative interpretations of our participants.
