présentation - 展览介绍 : With this solo exhibition by Loris Cecchini, Galleria Continua is proud to present in its Beijing gallery a new show designed especially for the space, together with a special project by Loris Cecchini and Francesco Simeti, in conjunction with Miroglio Textile. Cecchini’s works explore open structures based on generative modules designed by the artist and industrially produced in steel: every single element contributes to the creation of an “organism”, generating a context lying between a microcosm and a macrocosm that brings together and establishes a close relationship between different aesthetic categories and the scientific sphere. The artist’s inclination is to poetically elaborate space through the deconstruction of reality at different levels; in fact, through the forms and the cold, sophisticated materials selected by the artist, it acquires composite, creative and revelatory aspects. Cecchini’s latest work focuses principally on diagrammatic models, searching in the alterity of artifice a key of ambivalence of Western systems of representation. Physical phenomena become an optical and emotive inventory of the environment, natural systems turn into algorithms of a non-homogeneous system, both complex and individual, in order to reveal the invisible processes of our present. Searching for an analogy between grammar and anatomy, in their language the works recall formulas capable of generating auto-poietic systems in which the bursting out of the structures regenerates itself, contaminates and transforms itself, just as happens in an organism. The sculptural installations, made up of hundreds of elements, seem to be a biological metaphor – cells that open and flower, releasing molecular components that engage with the gallery space. The tall lamp post installed in the space – abandoned and at an angle – is an urban landscape element on which a new possibility of life and of a project is grafted. Like climbing plants, the sculptures propagate on it and in the space in a kind of writing that is at once emotive and organic: the resulting drawings bring out different narratives and ideas, outlining the speculative potential of sculpture as diagram, where the “model of reference” moves from scientific representation through artistic interpretation, and vice versa. In the “Wallwave Vibrations” series, the alteration is introduced as the physical manifestation of vibrations expressed; the visual mesh is transformed into the echo of a purely physical phenomenon, like the succession of waves on a flat liquid or the effect of the movement of sound on a surface. It is as if the whole architecture, or a part of it, were suffering the consequences of a phenomenon that influences, modifies and leads it towards an organic symbiosis between sculpture and wall. The number of surreal elements, and their formal complexity, take the works into a dual terrain between abstraction and the sublime, where the point of departure is a kind of equation for measuring the physical reactions of a wave in space. The constant dialectic between nature and artifice – what is distinguishable from nature in that it is produced by humans – is never the exclusive end of Cecchini’s work, but should be considered as a means for discovering a technology that inevitably engages with the compendium of the natural and with a cultural artifice based upon it. The special project involving Loris Cecchini, Francesco Simeti and the Miroglio Textile consists of two actions. The first is with Metri d’Arte on the second floor of the gallery; after doing a workshop in Alba with skilled workers from the Miroglio company, the two artists produced some works arising from the experience, on display in the gallery in Beijing. Arising from the contact with the Miroglio Group, and pursuing one of our lines of action, we decided to ask Loris Cecchini and Francesco Simeti to donate the works for a charity evening to be held on 28 March at the Galleria Continua in Beijing. Organized in conjunction with Miroglio Textile and the Italian Institute of Culture in Beijing, the event will be attended by the Chinese artists Liu Ye, Zeng Hao, Ji Dachun, Zhan Wang, Chen Wen Bo，Hai Bo and Tan Ping. All the funds raised during the evening will be destinated to the humanitarian project “Children’s Hospital of Qingdao”, where the association “Solidarietà Italiana Qingdao”, already active from several years in this area, will help us follow directly the project and documenting it in total and absolute transparency.
Artist Introduction
常青画廊非常荣幸地推出艺术家劳瑞斯•切克尼为北京空间特别设计的个展，以及弗朗西斯西梅蒂同米罗利奥纺织集团与其合作的特别项目。 切克尼的作品探究由艺术家创作的工业制造钢组件为基础的开放结构：每个元素以细胞的方式组建一个“有机体”，创建了微观与宏观之间的语境，创造了美学范畴与科技领域之间的紧密关系。艺术家的主旨是通过不同层次结构现实来诗意地阐述空间；实际上通过艺术家对形式和冷色、考究材料的选择获得创造性的、全面的、启发性的结果。 切克尼近期的作品更为关注纯图示的模型，寻找技巧的差异性是西方表现系统中的主要矛盾。物理现象成为物理与感官的存在，作为非均体系算法的自然系统，因独特性而复杂，为了揭示我们这个时代中无形的进程。在语法和解剖学之间寻找一个深刻的比喻，艺术家的作品在其语言环境中召回这些准则，像发生在一个有机体中，这些结构的突发能够生成自生系统并带来影响。 雕塑装置由数百个元素组成——就如同生物学中细胞的绽放一样作品与画廊空间自由地进行对话。 高高的电线杆斜立在画廊中心，一个城市的景观元素，生成了新生命与由此生成的新项目的可能性。如攀援的植物，雕塑蔓延其上，有如在空间中形成生动的笔法。画面像是在讲述不同的故事与思想，可以看到雕塑如蓝图般拥有可能性，其中可参考的是通过艺术诠释科学，反之亦然。 在系列作品涟漪中，振动的物理表现形式引入了空间的变化；视觉网格成为纯粹现象的回响，有如在液体平面上的波浪或像在平面上声波运动的效果。就像是整个建筑或建筑局部被赋予建筑与雕塑共生的现象所影响。 一些超现实主义的元素与其有条理的复杂性，将作品带入一个抽象与崇高的双重地带，出发点是一种为度量空间内波动起伏的物理反应的方程式。 自然与人工之间持续不变的辨证——能够辨别出的是自然与人造的区别——这并不是切克尼作品的主旨，但是不可避免的应被视为是从人文角度对应用自然的一种技术的探索。 本次项目由劳瑞斯•切克尼，弗朗西斯•西梅蒂及意大利米罗利奥纺织集团两个项目组成。在画廊二楼的是艺术与纺织结合的特别项目; 经过在阿尔巴与意大利米罗利奥纺织集团的两位技术工人在工作室的合作,这两个艺术家从工作室的经验中总结经验并做出作品, 陈列在北京的画廊中。 通过与米罗利奥纺织集团的接触并追随我们活动的路线轨迹,我们决定向劳瑞斯•切克尼和弗朗西斯•西梅蒂将于3月28日在北京常青画廊举行的慈善晚会上拍卖 。本次项目由米罗利奥集团和意大利使馆文化处联合举办, 出现在拍卖会上的艺术家名单如下：刘野，曾浩，季大纯，展望，陈文波，海波和谭平。本次活动募集的资金将全部捐赠给人道主义项目“青岛孤儿院”，“意大利团结青岛”协会已经在这一领域工作多年，从而帮助我们完全透明地引领并监督此次活动。
