尹秀珍
Yin Xiuzhen
1963 年出生于北京,现生活、工作于北京;1989 年,毕业于首都师范大学美术系。
尹秀珍的作品探讨了过去和现在、记忆、全球化和同质化的主题。她最出名的是她的雕塑和装置作品,包括衣服、鞋子和行李箱等二手物品。受到她家乡北京快速变化的文化环境的启发,尹秀珍安排和重新配置这些回收的物品,以引出它们的个人和集体历史。她组装的材料作为记忆的雕塑文件,暗指那些在快速发展、过度城市化和不断增长的全球经济中经常被忽视的个人生活。
自 20 世纪 90 年代以来,尹秀珍参加了许多里程碑式的展览和展示。她的作品在世界各地的博物馆和艺术机构中广泛展出。尹秀珍的作品致力于探索文化记忆和二十世纪末中国发生的变化规模,特别是更加国际化的经济和对城市化的新态度如何创造了传统和物品被视为短暂或可抛弃的环境。2001 年,与艺术家宋冬一起创造了合作方式“筷道”。 著名的艺术出版机构费顿出版社(Phaidon Press)出色的“当代艺术家(Contemporary Artists)”系列丛书也曾为她出版专集,这是亚洲地区除草间弥生之外的第二位女性艺术家获此殊荣。
Born in 1963, Beijing, China.
Yin Xiuzhen currently lives and works in Beijing. Yin began her career after earning a BA from Capital Normal University’s Fine Arts Department, Beijing, in 1989. She is best known for her sculptures and installations comprising secondhand objects like clothing, shoes, and suitcases. Inspired by the rapidly changing cultural environment of her native Beijing, Yin arranges and reconfigures these recycled items to draw out their individual and collective histories. Her assembled materials operate as sculptural documents of memory, alluding to the lives of individuals who are often neglected in the drive toward rapid development, excessive urbanization, and the growing global economy.
