伊格纳斯•阿巴黎的新作是为SUITCASE艺术项目创作的，包含了八个橱窗的作品，它呼应了银泰中心的商业语境，以及关于缺席、虚无和隐形的艺术史。阿巴黎的现场装置中有的沿用了典型的商业展示所使用的手法，有的则改编或者强调了虚无的物理成分，比如光和空气。根据沃尔特•本雅明在《拱廊街计划》中对于消费主义中心的讨论，“没有，有”这个展览计划所思考的是展示的条件和对展示的期望。通过对日常材料的使用，包括灰尘、图像和简单的文字——这些是他在创作中最喜欢使用的材料——阿巴黎在运用观念的魅力和分析性的严谨“揭示虚无”的同时，探讨了哲学中最核心和最复杂的问题：为什么是有而不是无？
该项目的出版物将于2009年6月出版发行，其中将包含现场装置的图片和由纬度策展工作室撰写的文章。
Ignasi Aballí’s new project for the eight windows of SUITCASE Art Projects responds to the retail context of the Yintai Centre as well as an artistic history of absence, nothingness and invisibility. While some of his installations adopt the characteristics of commercial presentations, others adapt and enhance the physical components of apparent emptiness, such as light and air. Following Walter Benjamin’s concern with centres of consumerism in The Arcades Project, Nothing, or Something is preoccupied with the conditions and expectations of display. Using the everyday materials which he favours in his practice, including dust, found imagery and simple lettering, Aballí ‘reveals nothing’ with a conceptual charm and analytical rigour while addressing philosophy's central and most perplexing question: Why is there something rather than nothing?
A publication with installation images and an essay by Latitudes will be published in June 2009.
伊格纳斯·阿巴黎（Ignasi Aballí，巴塞罗那，1958年）
伊格纳斯•阿巴黎的创作从1980年代末开始被展出和介绍，他和其他同时期一起涌现出的艺术家被称为“加泰罗尼亚艺术家”，他们通过对影像、绘画、摄影和雕塑的深刻反思，复原观念的实践。他的作品特点鲜明，常常使用日常生活中不起眼的元素——如报纸、灰尘、日历，或者分类系统，如色码表、列表、目录和档案。他为SUITCASE艺术项目创作的作品，与一个他在艺术实践中的永恒主题有关，即虚无、透明和细微。
他近期的个展有：“可能/很可能”西班牙马德里 Galería Elba Benítez(2009)；“展示”比利时布鲁塞尔Meessen De Clercq(2008)；“没有活动”,葡萄牙波尔蒂芒Museo Municipal de Portimão(2008)；“杂草”,西班牙马德里Real Jardín Botánico (2008)；“分类”西班牙巴塞罗那Galería Estrany-De la Mota (2008)；“0-24h”西班牙巴塞罗那 (巡展) (2005–6)。他参加过的部分群展有：“抽空”（'Tiempo al Tiempo/Taking Time'）西班牙比戈当代艺术馆(2007)；“静止的生活：艺术、生态和政治变化”，阿拉伯联合酋长国第八届沙加双年展(2007)；“感官思索，意识触摸”意大利威尼斯第52届威尼斯双年展(2007)；“不可触摸”尼斯维拉阿尔松国家当代艺术中心(2006); “开始是旅行”（'En el principio era el viaje'）, 西班牙庞特维德拉双年展(2004).
Ignasi Aballí (Barcelona, Spain, 1958) began exhibiting in the late-1980s, emerging alongside a generation of Catalan artists that recuperated conceptual practices through an intense reflection on the status of the image, painting, photography and representation. His work is often characterised by the use of unremarkable elements of daily life – newspapers, dust, calendars – as well as systems of classification such as colour charts, lists, inventories and archives. His project for SUITCASE Art Projects connects with an ever present theme in his practice, that of absence, transparency and imperceptibility.
His recent solo shows include: 'Possible/Probable', Galería Elba Benítez, Madrid, Spain (2009); 'To Show', Meessen De Clercq, Brussels, Belgium (2008); 'Sem Actividade', Museo Municipal de Portimão, Portimão, Portugal (2008); 'Malas Hierbas', Real Jardín Botánico, Madrid, Spain (2008); 'Classificar', Galería Estrany-De la Mota, Barcelona, Spain (2008); '0–24h', Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain (touring show) (2005–6). Amongst his group shows are: 'Tiempo al Tiempo/Taking Time', Museo de Arte Contemporaneo Vigo, Vigo, Spain (2007); 'Still Life: Art, Ecology and the Politics of Change', Sharjah Biennial 8, United Arab Emirates (2007); 'Think with the senses, feel with the mind', 52nd Biennale di Venezia, Venice, Italy (2007); 'Intouchable', Centre National d'Art Contemporain Villa Arson. Nice (2006); 'En el principio era el viaje', Bienal de Pontevedra, Pontevedra, Spain (2004).

SUITCASE艺术项目
SUITCASE是一个旅行中的艺术项目。
你在哪，它就到哪。
SUITCASE艺术项目与具体的现实空间和观念语境展开
对话和互动，在任何特定的情境中自我转化并潜入／嵌入
其中。SUITCASE艺术项目强调的是相遇而不是对抗，是
潜移默化而不是针锋相对。
SUITCASE追随着情境主义的传统在日常的生活中重构
精神的空间。
SUITCASE是一个停顿。
SUITCASE是一个传言，弥漫在空气中。
SUITCASE寄生并生长着。
SUITCASE ART PROJECTS
SUITCASE is an art project that travels.
Instead of waiting for you to come close, it travels to
wherever you are.
SUITCASE Art Projects are engaged in exchanges
and interactions with specific physical and conceptual
contexts and are highly adaptable to any given
situation. SUITCASE Art Projects are about encounters
not confrontations.
SUITCASE follows the Situationist tradition to create
intellectual engagements and discussions in both the
most and least expected contexts.
SUITCASE is a pause.
SUITCASE is a hearsay, circulating in the air.
SUITCASE parasites and grows.
