「形同虛設——文學視藝再造香港史」
小說是虛構,卻反映更大的真實。從文字符號系統,到視覺藝術的呈現方式,是轉移,也是重生。普遍認為,與文學作品對話的視藝作品以平面佔多;今次文學館邀請到五位本土青年藝術家,根據五本香港知名小說,創作雕塑或立體裝置,願為突破。歷史是怎樣的真實?官方敘事冠冕堂皇,但小說也並非無中生有。在時世的虛無中,藝術還是折射著烏托邦(儘管是碎片)。 參展藝術家: 盧樂謙 ─ 劉以鬯《島與半島》 鄧國騫 ─ 陳冠中《建豐二年》 吳家俊 ─ 董啟章《天工開物.栩栩如真》 李雪盈 ─ 西 西〈浮城誌異〉 劉學成 ─ 陳 慧《拾香記》 展覽日期:8月5日至8月27日 地 點:九龍土瓜灣馬頭角道63號牛棚藝術村1a space 開放時間:逢星期二至日上午11時至晚上7時 開幕酒會:8月5日(週六),7:00 - 8:00pm 藝術家分享會:8月5日(週六),5:00 - 6:30pm 講者:劉學成、鄧國騫、陳慧等 地 點:九龍土瓜灣馬頭角道63號牛棚藝術村1a space 開放時間:逢星期二至日上午11時至晚上7時
