张培力个展
地点：Boers-Li画廊(原 UniversalStudios-beijing)

Boers-Li画廊荣幸地宣布我们即将举办中国影像艺术先驱张培力的个展——《阵风》。此次个展是张培力最新作品的全球首展，尝试重新联接艺术家在过去几年中所关注过的若干主题。
张培力是杭州20世纪80年代的观念艺术小组 “池社”的创建者之一。在80年代末、90年代初，张培力创作了一系列具有开创性的影像作品，被认为是中国影像艺术之父。张培力早期的作品带有沉闷美学的色彩，并且涉及科技、社会和政治控制等题材。而在最近的作品中，张培力通过重新剪辑现有的录像片段来审视那些约定俗成的规矩、对时间的概念以及对发展的想法；这挑战了媒体艺术的界限，同时使艺术家的创作聚焦于录像装置。
在这次全球首展的作品中，张培力将更进一步地探索在他原来作品中明显出现过的观点和社会位阶等主题，它们与隐蔽却尖锐的社会批评天衣无缝地结合在一起。其目标是最终揭示一个社会形象的建造机器，并对当今媒体中常见的短视的中产阶级乌托邦予以质疑。

A Gust of Wind
A Zhang Peili Solo Exhibition
Place: Boers-Li Gallery (formerly UniversalStudios-beijing)
Opening：2008.04.26，4：00pm
Exhibition Dates: 2008.04.26 - 2008.05.24
Hours: Tuesday through Sunday 11:00-18:00
Boers-Li Gallery is proud to announce an upcoming solo exhibition by renowned media artist Zhang Peili entitled A Gust of Wind. The exhibition will be the worldwide premiere of a new video installation piece that attempts to reconnect many of the thematic and formal strands with which the artist has been working for the past several years.
Zhang Peili was a founding member of the artists' collective “Pond Society” in the 1980s, and is considered the father of video art in China because of his groundbreaking work in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He is currently the dean of the New Media Department of the China Academy of Fine Arts in Hangzhou.
His earlier works have experimented with an aesthetics of boredom and have treated themes of technological, social, and political control. His more recent work interrogates viewing conventions, perceptions of time, and notions of progress through the remixing and editing of found footage; it also challenges the boundaries of media art and focuses on video installations.
The multi-channel video installation presented for the first time here furthers Zhang Peili's explorations of the themes of perspective and positionality evident in his prior work and melds them seamlessly with veiled but incisive social critique. The goal is ultimately to reveal the apparatus of social image construction and cast doubt on the ephemeral vision of a middle-class utopia presently offered in the media.
