《Cao Fei: HX》简介

《Cao Fei: HX》是艺术家曹斐长期项目“HX”的相关研究出品。“HX”项目以艺术家工作室曾经所处的红霞影剧院作为原点，追溯了红霞影剧院及相关区域的独特历史、文化脉胳以及相关人群的生活和命运。

整个项目在时间过程中日益延展和生长，研究的内容也伴随着项目的进展持续修正与扩充，直至最终形成复杂而开放的结构。它是艺术家与历史学者、建筑师、媒体学者和策展人通过密切合作收获的丰富成果，来自不同领域的作者提供了主题多样的文本。

此外，研究出品的所选图像以某种“图集”的形式创造出另一种叙事：这些视觉素材来源于曹斐在研究过程中搜集的各种资料，如家庭相册、书刊插图、历史文献、摄影作品等，它们穿插在文本之间并与其产生奇妙的共振。

Cao Fei: HX

Cao Fei: HX takes Cao Fei’s studio, the former Hongxia Theatre, as a starting point, and expands out into neighbouring Jiuxianqiao and Dashanzi Districts.Working like an archaeologist, Cao Fei seeks to propose alternative versions of the theatre and its history, as neither the narrative of China’s electronic industry nor the life and fate of an entire generation has been fully explored until now.

The HX project has become an ambitious time-space complex, and the resulting publication developed alongside the project has taken shape over the course of this long-term research. The publication follows its own logic and rhythm, acting as a counterpart to the artworks that Cao Fei created as part of the project.

The images selected for this publication are compiled in the form of an “atlas” that creates an alternative narrative: the visual materials originate from the research process of Cao Fei, who has collected them from different resources, including family albums of local residents, illustrations of publications and periodicals, archival materials of institutions, and works of photographers. These visual materials and the texts are interwoven, which renders a montage-like visual rhyme throughout the publication.

Cao Fei: HX does not simply function as an artist’s publication, since it has a complex and open structure that corresponds to the irreducible depth of the issues explored. To some extent, HX could be regarded as an intellectual experiment, which transcends the significance of the HX project itself and expands to a wider consideration of the past and its relationship to our contemporary world.
