北京設計周暨首屆北京國際設計三年展

分主題展〈知“竹”〉

地點:北京國家博物館4樓N16展廳

展期: 2011年9月28日至10月17日

開幕式: 2011年9月27日18:00

國際策展人：劉小康

中國策展人: 杭間

首屆北京國際設計三年展分主題展〈知“竹”〉 ，可說是全世界首次以竹設計為主題的大型展覽，應邀為是次三年展的唯一亞洲策展人，劉小康以逾一年的時間進行考察，徵集及邀請了來自歐美、亞洲國家及大中華地區共13個國家24個地區，雲集國際知名及新晉共66位設計師及參展機構，展出逾200件竹設計作品、珍貴圖片及裝置。

〈知“竹”〉以“竹生活”為概念，並從文化、現代設計及科技提昇的角度對其進行探索，其中包含了對竹傳統的應用、欣賞，和現代設計從中得到的啓發，探討這既傳統又新穎的材料。同時亦深入探討竹子的未來設計對世界設計的影響。

展覽簡介

諺語有謂：“知足常樂”。“竹”的普通話發音與“足”相近，其實，知“竹”也是快樂的。竹子確實可以滿足人類生活眾多方面的需要。

竹子在西方植物學的角度被定性為木質草科，從中國人的角度看則“不剛不柔，非草非木”，與草木皆不同。全世界的竹子種類共有1250多種，其中約有100多種可用於商業開發。《康熙字典》中，竹字部首字共968字，其中竹器物字共495字；《辭海》中，常用竹器物字共223字，可見竹子的用途是多麼廣泛。

竹子在中國人及至亞洲人的設計角度裏，是從文化層次及生活情感出發，以竹喻人。相對西方的角度，竹子是一種環保簡約的物料，反映一種回歸大自然的生活態度。彼此出發點有異，形成有趣的探討議題，比較雙方的竹設計，並從當中找到共識，從中找到竹子在今天的意義。

是次展覽的策劃主要從兩點切入：竹子為象徵的文化精神和竹子在生活裏的應用。展覽展示的是一次世界性的竹子考察及最具前瞻性的竹設計展覽，將關注中國、亞洲乃至全世界的竹設計，分為五個部分呈現：

1、意：文化之竹

2、藝：工藝之竹

3、器：日用之竹

4、境：建築之竹

5、悟：創新之竹

現時世界流行的LOHAS (Lifestyle of Health and Sustainability)，是一種生活方法，又可說是慢生活；將來，又會否有一種“竹生活”呢？

Beijing Design Week and First Beijing International Design Triennial

Sub-theme Exhibition “Rethinking Bamboo”

Venue: Exhibition Hall N16, 4/F, National Museum of China, Beijing

Exhibition period: 28 September – 17 October 2011

Grand Opening: 18:00, 27 September 2011

International Curator: Freeman Lau

Chinese Co-curator: Hang Jian

The sub-theme exhibition of First Beijing International Design Triennial (BIDT) “Rethinking Bamboo” is probably the first large-scale exhibition in the world which is themed on bamboo designs. Freeman Lau, the only Asian curator invited by BIDT, has spent over one year in bamboo-related research and has invited world-famous design masters as well as novices from a total of 13 countries and 24 regions all over the world in joining BIDT.

“Rethinking Bamboo” has invited 66 designers and participating organisations from Asia, Europe and the United States in exhibiting over 200 precious pieces of bamboo design works, images and installations. The exhibition takes “bamboo life” as a concept and explores it through cultural, modern design and technological advancement perspectives which include applications and appreciation of and inspiration from traditional bamboo craftsmanship.

EXHIBITION INTRODUCTION

As the saying goes, “to achieve a state of contentment (zhi zu) is to truly know one’s own happiness”. The pronunciation of “Bamboo” (zhu) in Mandarin translates as “enough” (zu). Indeed, a better understanding of this ubiquitous plant brings its own rewards. Bamboo can indeed bring fulfillment to the many needs in human life.

In Western botanical studies, bamboo is classified as a Poaceae, a member of the true grass family. However, from a Chinese perspective, it is “neither hard nor soft neither grass nor wood”. It is different from both. There are around 1,250 varieties of bamboo found in different parts of the world, with more than a hundred suitable for commercial development purposes. In Kang Xi Dictionary, there are a total of 968 Chinese characters with “bamboo” as a radical and 495 of these characters denote a bamboo utensil; and in Ci Hai, a dictionary especially for combinations of single Chinese characters, 223 entries of commonly-used bamboo utensils are found. The large amount of Chinese words relating to bamboo indicates its wide-ranging applications.

From a Western perspective, bamboo is an environmentally friendly and natural material, pointing to an organic way of life. The East, on the contrary, emphasizes its cultural and sentimental values as a metaphor for personhood. These contrasting approaches form the basis of an interesting dialogue. Through comparing bamboo designs from the East and the West and henceforth reaching a consensus of the two, the exhibition aims to investigate the role and significance of bamboo in contemporary society.

“Rethinking Bamboo” is curated from two main points of departure: first, bamboo as an embodiment of the spirit of Chinese culture and second, the application of bamboo in everyday life. This current exhibition features a worldwide research and study on bamboo and the most forward-thinking bamboo design, showcasing works from all over the world under five themes:

1. Metaphor – Bamboo in Chinese Culture

2. Craftsmanship – Bamboo Craftsmanship

3. Utensils – Bamboo in Daily Life

4. Space – Bamboo and Architecture

5. Rethinking – Bamboo Innovation

Today, LOHAS (Lifestyle of Health and Sustainability), a new way of living also is regarded as slow living is gaining its popularity. Would we see in the future, the emergence of a “Bamboo Life”?

講題簡介：
隨近年愈多自我文化身份的覺醒，「本土文化」成為了熱門名詞，應用於各式討論中，並經常與「創意」掛鉤，期望在香港發展成「產業」。然而，為什麼說香港是獨特的？究竟我們可以如何形容香港的本土文化特點？回顧察看粵劇文化所經歷的路：從內地本是具革命性的文藝工具，流傳至香港。粵劇文化乃至棚藝的傳承，因著歷史緣由避過了文化大清洗，其嶺南文化風格在殖民地被動的文化政策取向下，得以保存並自由發展；然後又隨香港這急促的資本社會發展和城市化進程，生成了如今的文化面貌及獨特的城市景觀。粵劇的獨特性，是否正與香港獨特的文化角色相通相承？我們又如何以其豐富的蘊涵，融匯於香港當代文化創意發展的大趨勢裡？

Introduction:
With increasing self-consciousness on local cultural identities, the term “local culture” is being frequently used in various discussions and often being related to “creativity”, with an expectation leading to development into the “industry”. However, the discussion may return to a basic question: how unique is the city we are living in? How can we describe the unique cultural characters of Hong Kong?

Let’s look into the road that Cantonese opera gone through. From being an artistic tool with revolutionary characters in mainland China, the performing art spread to Hong Kong. Under the shelter of the passive colonial cultural policies, Cantonese opera, together with bamboo scaffolding skills, dodged the Cultural Revolution and maintained their characteristics in term of the Lingnan culture. Preserved and developed, following the rapid capitalistic and urbanizing developments, the arts and cultures grew into special cultural scenes still being seen everywhere in the city. How do the special characters of Cantonese opera culture directly connect with the cultural characters of Hong Kong? How can we concretely describe the linkage in between? Can we practically integrate the traditional cultures into current trend of creative industry development?

關於竹棚、戲曲及市集文化的探索

Scaffolding‧Viewing‧Assembling

Cultural Observations on Bamboo Scaffolding, Chinese Opera and Markets

「地道」文化，不能失卻人的參與和傳承。沒有一代接一代的傳承及變通，竹棚、戲曲及市集等的傳統技藝及文化，可能早已在不知不覺中消失了。

《棚‧觀‧集》由在香港無處不見的竹棚架的起源及其與戲棚、南粵民居的關係作起點，探究祖先的文化傳承及變通智慧；步往香港碩果僅存的私營戲曲表演場地新光戲院，探視香港戲曲觀演形態的演化；再走入喧囂熱鬧的市集，檢視香港傳統街市的變遷與消逝。文字聯同超過500幀歷史圖片、繪圖及實地照片，貫穿成一個別具本土韻味的歷史人文空間之旅。

繼2010年11月25日於序言書室發佈新書，以及同期展出的繪本原稿展，我們獲得很大的鼓勵和啟發。是次應POINT TO LIFE BOOKS總監邀請舉辦圖片及攝影展，並榮幸請來專家學者吳鳳平博士、何慶基先生及陳澤蕾博士擔任嘉賓講者，與我們一起延伸討論；以及特設兩場教育導賞環節，冀望從竹棚、戲曲及市集文化構建的人文空間角度開始，進而思索戲曲文化研究及推廣的重要意義，及至普及本土文化內涵與創意產業發展之間的關係，從而帶出更為全面、深入同時自由、開朗的本土文化探討。

我們相信，持續的文化討論，才會帶來持續的文化累積及進步！

聚談會
誠如書中序言所說，本土文化身份的認知、承傳，需要更多的論述和研究支持。本書除了希望為香港豐富的本土文化作記錄、研究和留傳，更希望為延續有關本土文化內涵討論作為其中一個引子。三位作者將以自身追尋本土文化內蘊的經驗和體會為開端，邀請嘉賓就本土文化身份的建構、承傳和推廣等議題，作自由及開闊的分享和討論。

Scaffolding‧Viewing‧Assembling
Cultural Observations on Bamboo Scaffolding, Chinese Opera and Markets

Without human's participation and inheritance, there will be no ‘authentic’ cultures. Without passing on through generations with inputs, the traditional cultures of bamboo scaffolding, Chinese operas and markets may be lost insensibly.

Scaffolding‧Viewing‧Assembling starts from the origin of the interesting city building landscape and bamboo scaffolding combination, looking into the unique cultural heritage and wisdoms of life of our ancestors. Moving to the Sunbeam Theatre, the only remaining private Chinese opera performance venue in Hong Kong, it is about reading and understanding the messages behind the changing modes of viewing and being viewed in local Chinese opera performances. Stepping into the markets, we are witnessing the transformation of Hong Kong traditional markets and fading of local market cultural contents. Together with over 500 valuable historical images, sketches and field photos, the book presents an authentic Hong Kong journey across eras enriched with living histories and humanistic landscapes.

After the book launch and exhibition held in Nov 2010, we have received a lot of encouragement and inspirations which gave us much energy to move on. Many thanks to receive the invitation from Director of POINTS TO LIFE BOOKS, we will arrange another exhibition of more than 40 original sketches and 60 photos. And to our great honor, Dr. Ng Fung-ping Dorothy, Mr. Oscar Ho and Dr. Chan Chak-lui will kindly be the guest speakers of three discussion sessions, to share thoughts and with the audience and explore more possibilities of local cultural development. Teachers and students are most welcome to join the guided tours leaded by us the authors. Let’s start our journey from particular angles in bamboo scaffolding, Chinese opera viewing and market cultures, and let it bring us all to more interesting and in-depth understanding and study on Hong Kong folk cultures.

We believe that continue discussions on local cultures lead to sustainable accumulation of cultural contents and development. We sincerely hope that our first step can serve as a point to assemble energy for this goal.

Exhibition of Original Sketches & Photos
Sketches by: Pang Tsz Wai Venus
Photography by: Chow Ka-yee, Alan Tang, Tse Yin-mo, Xiao Kou, Poon Sze-man
Photograph provided by: CNS, History Museum of Shanghai
Period: 22 Jan 2011 (Sat) to 27 Mar 2011 (Sun)

A 20% off discount will be offered at POINT TO LIFE BOOKS for buying the book during the exhibition period!

Sharing and Discussion Sessions
As pointed out in the prologue, understanding and inheritance of local cultural identities require the support of more analysis and researches. We hope that the book not only serves as a record of local cultures, but also as a point to encourage and continue happenings of more discussions on local cultural contents. The three authors will start the discussions by sharing their personal experiences in tracing the rich local culture contents and contexts, and invite the guest speakers to share and discuss with us their views on inheritance and development of local culture studies.

Host: Tse Yin-mo, Xiao Kou and Poon Sze-man (Authors of the book)

Cantonese opera was officially inscribed onto the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, becoming the first item of the world intangible cultural heritage in Hong Kong. The unique cultural space of local Cantonese opera, the bamboo-shed theatre, contains various cultural contents from religious ceremonies, festive activities, bamboo structures, scaffolding and binding techniques, traditional Cantonese opera performances to markets and fairs.
