這個像是床又像是手提箱的東西，是甚麼呢？有點像某某貴牌子的古典旅行用品。

作品的名稱叫「顯赫家族」，供顯赫家族露宿街頭所用的摺疊睡床，是典型的黃國材風格，在運用強烈的反差來營造諷刺意味。

李民偉的「開展所能 II」，雖然我不知道作品的描述中有沒有說明獅子和摺床的關係，但相片已經說得很清楚了，作者似乎在用摺床 “案件重演” 了匯豐銀行總行的建立過程，而這個過程又和很具香港特色的摺床有著關係。摺床伴著我們幾代人的成長，在往時很重人情味的店鋪，又或十多人住在三百呎屋的年代，很多生活就是圍繞著這些摺床的，獅子則見證了香港幾十年的發展，而這些鐵架摺床叠起來又有點像匯豐銀行的金屬外觀，十分有趣，我認為是這個展覽中最好的作品。

林嵐的「給想飛的人」。

近觀是半隻半隻的飛機槳，我試試用另一個角度拍照，看看能不能 “出到” 她的感覺 …

梁志和的「袋鼠島大開發」，由澳洲唐人街一條小巷的天空，聯想到香港移民代代人不斷向外遷移，是 視覺 -> 行為 -> 觸感 的創作。

程展緯的「第一章：我愛你」，他在外國教廣東話，教說 “我愛你”，把四百個學生的這句話（每人五秒鐘）的片段組合，變成作品連環播放，作品描述中說，想透過語言聲音與含意的分離及空泛訊息的傳遞，讓人再思話語背後的真實本意。據我記憶所及，到目前為止只有不超過十個人用廣東話跟我說過 “我愛你” ，我坐下來一直看著這些陌生人對著我說 “我愛你”，有男有女有不同年紀及國藉的人，又很認真似的，看了幾分鐘，倒是令人有點心寒，卻找不到話語背後的真實本意，看來真的要看完四百人跟自己說 “我愛你” （半小時以上）才可能找到，但我會驚恐症發作 …（說笑，望作者不要介意 ）

伍韶勁的「淨化觀塘」將官塘的海水用像機械的東西蒸餾成鹽和水，原來從前官塘是鹽田來的。

這些作品已經夠好，作品的文字描述可以再少一點，全部 “開估” 反而少了聯想的空間，有些作品沒有描述就跟本不存在，但也不用把腸全部畫出來啊 ~~ 看到腸之後作品立即在我面前消失 …

從事雕塑
9/05/2009 – 14/06/2009

開幕：2009年5月8日(星期五), 晚上7時至8時30分

藝術家：林嵐、羅琛堡、楊我華

座談會暨表演：2009年5月9日(星期六), 下午3時至6時

地點：1a空間 │ 九龍土瓜灣馬頭角道63號牛棚藝術村14號室

1a空間五月呈獻另類聲音雕塑展《從事雕塑》，策展人為林嵐，開幕日期定於五月八日 (晚上七時至八時三十分)。開幕翌日，即五月九日(下午三時至六時)舉辦座談會，1a 空間邀來三位藝術家進行交流，接續會有聲音藝術表演。大會歡迎各界踴躍參與。

是次展覽集合藝界各精英，藝術家包括雕塑家林嵐、錄像藝術家羅琛堡及聲音藝術家楊我華。三位藝術家除專注其藝術創作外，對具藝術意義的跨界別合作計劃尤感興趣。是次展覽中，他們嘗試以「雕塑」觀念出發，合力構思一個巨大的聲音雕塑製作，把1a空間展場演繹為大型「園景」(landscape) 雕塑裝置，其中涉及空間、聲音以及形體，邀請觀眾以實驗性的身體互動回應作品。展覽結束後，1a空間將出版展覽書册，做為是次雕塑展的延伸討論。

理念

「雕塑」一詞，對香港的觀眾並不陌生，大眾很快地就會聯想到某公園或某街道或某大廈前的那一件件的雕塑「物件」(object)。

在中國熱的大氣候下，當下香港的商場、酒店、豪宅，在自由行帶動下的旅遊業高温期中，配合「西九龍文化區」「前現象」大熱，各地產商紛紛忽然藝術，邀請藝術家展示作品於各地產項目。除了繪畫，立體作品亦成為焦點。這和七、八十年，香港經濟高峰期，酒店、私營屋苑出現的公眾作品有某程度的類似，作品對客戶的交代多於和公眾的對話。

雕塑作品的定義在歷史進程中不斷進行新的演繹，雕塑一詞於當代藝術有何意義？它們為博物館的「展品」、公眾空間的「物件」、還是向客戶交代的「藝術項目」？雕塑有何另類的發展空間？

香港做為世界性的大都會，正邁向文化藝術的另一高熱期，雕塑做為當代藝術重要的一環，更應該在當下發出適當的「聲音」去訴說時代的需要，推廣更具當代性的藝術教育。

Work in Sculpture
9 May 2009 – 14 June 2009

Opening : 8 May 2009 (Fri), 7pm – 8:30pm

Artists: Jaffa Lam, Jamsen Law, Anthony Yeung

Artist Talk with Performance : 9 May 2009 (Sat), 3pm – 6pm
Venue : 1a space │Unit 14D, Block C, Cattle Depot Artist Village, 63 Ma Tau Kok Road, To Kwa Wan, Kln

1a space proudly presents an alternative sound sculpture exhibition Work in Sculpture this May, curated by sculpture artist Jaffa Lam. Opening reception will be held on Friday, May 8, 2009. The next day after the opening (9 May / 3:00p.m. – 6:00p.m. ) will be equally eventful that holds audience in eager anticipation. There will be an artist talk and a sound performance.

Work in Sculpture brings together some of the most prominent artists in their respective fields. The exhibition features sculpture artist Jaffa Lam, video artist Jamsen Law and sound artist Anthony Yeung – all having a longstanding interest in their specialties and a sharp appetite for meaningful cross-disciplinary collaborations. Revolving around the theme of “sculptures”, they will join hands to transform the gallery space into a large scale sculptural landscape. You are cordially invited to witness this site-specific, intermedia and time-based mega sound sculpture, and to experience the art of experimental interaction. Catalogues will be published after the exhibition, which will be construed as an extended inquiry.

Concepts

“Sculptures” is not, per se, an unacquainted word to the Hong Kong audience. In all likelihood, the greater part of the public, prone to initially associate the word to certain “object(s)” at a park, on a street or in front of a building.

The symptoms of China Fever are spreading to Hong Kong in the form of Individual Visit Scheme. Patchy art projects initiated by property tycoons are chain reactions to the sudden boost of tourist trade – as well as the fervent response sparked by the West Kowloon Cultural District project. Artists are commissioned to create art for a variety of private spaces such as shopping malls, hotels and luxury estates. Among others, three-dimensional sculptural arts have become one of the focal points.

Definitions of sculptures have evolved through ages. What is meant by “sculptures” in the contemporary art world? Are they exhibits in museums, objects in public spaces or art undertakings to be fulfilled? Are there alternatives for sculptures as an art form?

As a metropolitan city, Hong Kong’s art/cultural scene is experiencing yet another revival. Being one of the most important genres in contemporary art, sculptural arts are on a mission to make some noises to reflect the needs of our time – both artistically and educationally.

以應牛棚藝術村前身馬頭角牲畜檢疫站101歲生日，又是牛年，牛棚的牛一01展覽全部作品都是牛，我來個簡單的相片報導（謝謝香港雕塑學會秘書長 周順強先生的相片）。

是王天仁的牛。

蛙王的牛，我十分喜蛙王的作品，一打大豉牛就會動（似的）。

鮮花和牛糞？

四面牛。

何遠良的牛，用樹皮做的。

這作品的名字我不太記得，好像是＂分甘同味＂:)

牛加上水萍，水萍在浮動，是一個在動的作品。

這個膠袋牛隨風而動，很有 Alexander Calder 的韻味。

也有毒牛事件。

是牛的心聲

謝謝香港雕塑學會秘書長 周順強先生的相片。
