关于展览 ABOUT EXHIBITION
如果,你现在在地图上搜索长江西路301号,已经没有这个地点了。
这是什么地方?它在哪儿?以前是什么样子?
或许,你也想不到,此时所站立之处就是已经“消失”的长江西路301号,这是博物馆前身上海玻璃仪器一厂所拥有过的地址。门牌号码转变的背后不仅是行政街道区划的更改,同样也暗藏着深刻的时代变迁以及一个玻璃工厂的风风雨雨。在此次展览中,我们将回溯、追寻、探索上海玻璃仪器一厂的历史,为大家展现似乎已蒙尘的旧工业历史景象。
记忆将是这段历史的核心,历史的意义从记忆里被提取和保存。在这里,你将体会到那一代人的青春故事和奋斗过往,由这些已经是爷爷奶奶辈的长者们亲自讲述。重新回忆的过程也是他们书写属于自己历史的过程。这些娓娓道来的故事和情感如同不可或缺的毛细血管,丰富了我们对于上世纪中期到新千年伊始社会变迁的记忆图景,将再次提示我们,个人记忆之于群体记忆的重要意义。哪怕是只言片语,也是组成“长江西路301号”的记忆拼图,而我们每一个听起过、看到过、聊起过“长江西路301号”的人,都会成为上海玻璃仪器一厂在历史长河中的锚索。
世事轮转,如同自然变迁。这片土地总是在积蓄力量,以自己的方式倔强生长。今天的上海玻璃博物馆脱胎于上海玻璃仪器一厂的骨架和肌理,从“旧”中汲取了“新”的养分和希望,少了中间的任何一个环节,都不足以让上海玻璃博物馆变成如今的模样。
再见与再现,
这是一种告别,同样也是一种重新到达和再次出发。
If you search for No. 301 Changjiang West Road on the map now, the location is no longer available.
What is this place? Where is it? What was it like before?
Perhaps, you can’t imagine that the place where you are standing at this time is the “disappeared” No. 301 Changjiang West Road, which was the address of Shanghai Firstglass Labware Factory, the predecessor of the museum. Behind the change of the house number is not only the change of the administrative street division, but also the profound changes of the times and the ups and downs of a glass factory. In this exhibition, we will go back, trace and explore the history of Shanghai Firstglass Labware Factory and show you the historical scene of the old industry that seems to have been dusted.
Memory will be at the heart of this history, from which the meaning of history is extracted and preserved. Here, you will experience the youth stories and struggles of that generation, told by the elders who are already grandparents. The process of recalling is also the process of writing their own history. These eloquent stories and emotions are like indispensable capillaries, enriching our memory picture of social changes from the middle of the last century to the beginning of the new millennium, and will once again remind us of the importance of individual memory to group memory. Even if it is just a few words, it’s a piece of the puzzle that makes up “No. 301 West Changjiang Road”. Every one of us who has heard, seen and talked about “No. 301 Changjiang West Road” will become the anchor cable of Shanghai Firstglass Labware Factory in the long river of history.
Goodbye and retrospect,
It is a kind of farewell, but also a kind of re-arrival and departure again.
