“开市计划—流动店铺”第三个店面——“厦门肉食公司”作为一个看似有着明确位置的具体地点,却是从“街头霸王”这一虚拟游戏中被截取而出的,除此之外它真实的起源已无从可考,未来同样也不可名状。“轴”艺术项目小组在此试图转变角色,成为一位能书写“历史”的小说家。他们对“厦门肉食公司”的认识不比任何人多,但这并不阻碍试图去编造和“发明”这样一个假定场所——一个在当代语境中被想象得来的“意外”之所。

他们在某些文本中找到了一类“进去—出来”或“进来—出去”的结构原型,并试图依照这一结构,进行新的书写:由一个具体和似乎熟知的地理空间展开,营造一种欺骗性的、明确的浸入感。在这里,宏大叙事将转为地方性小叙事,任何骗人者也将被欺骗和蒙蔽,而真实的书写者可以是作者,是主角,是隐含的读者,不论是谁,他们都将独身闯入这个世界,并在真实假象的犹豫中体验一种间离效果。 当每个观众进入这个由文本和艺术家共同“伪造”的现场后,文本随时准备退场,艺术作品则重新回归符号,并在观众新的编排中实现推翻原文本的可能。

本次《厦门肉食公司》展览是从书写一个小说出发,在这个文本中,没有任何一个明确和能够被总结出的主题,因为文本在书写时就已从写作者的角度主动消除了小说中所必然存在的中心主题。这也预示着,阅读这个文本本身不能获得任何单一所得,阅读它的唯一方法就是将文本中的所有词句逐一解构,其衍生的内容和意义集合一同构成了读者对文本的理解。在这里,文本故事仅仅作为一个隐藏的线索、一个艺术家与策展人的共谋。其将在观众浸入的整体感受中,得到某种合法性的接纳;而观众在浸入告终后,才被发现展览亦或者文本本身就是一个假定、一个trick、一个花招和一个骗局。



The Amoy Meat Factory is a specific place with a seemingly definite location, but it is intercepted from the virtual game "Street Fighter", beyond which its real origin is unknown and its future is also unnamed. The Axis Art Project team transformed their role in this project to that of a novelist who can write "history". They know no more about The Amoy Meat Factory  than anyone else, but that does not prevent them from trying to make up and "invent" such a hypothetical place.

The exhibition starts with the writing of a novel, a text in which there is no clear and summarizable theme. This also presupposes that no single result can be obtained from reading this text itself; the only way to read it is to deconstruct all the words and phrases one by one, whose derived contents and meanings are gathered together and together constitute the reader's understanding of the text.  Here, the textual story serves only as a hidden thread, a conspiracy between the artist and the curator. It will be accepted with a certain legitimacy in the overall feeling of immersion of the viewer, who, at the end of the immersion, realizes that the exhibition or the text itself is a presumption, a trick, a gimmick and a deception.
