Theme:
The theme of the first Suzhou Garden Art Festival is "Garden is the epitome of the world". In the garden, art, culture, life and nature can blend harmoniously here. 2 1 century, we hope to come to the garden again from a brand-new perspective, and bring you a multi-level and multi-dimensional artistic feast in Canglang Pavilion, Keyuan Garden and Yiyuan Garden.
Introduction:
This Suzhou Garden Art Festival echoes the increasingly diversified environment in Suzhou, covering seven sections: art, design, architecture, music, literature, food and dialogue. Each theme is not only related to traditional culture, but also a window for dialogue with the world, expressing the voice of current global issues.
art
Art is no stranger to Suzhou. Garden itself is an art, and Suzhou has lived with countless arts since ancient times. This art exhibition will be presented in Canglang Pavilion, Keyuan Garden, Yiyuan Garden and Art Garden, and will be planned by curator JeremieThircuirJeremy. Jeremy is an acquaintance of Suzhou and the curator of "Watching Waves: The Story of a New Garden" in 2020.
design
Gardens have their own design language. What will it look like after colliding with modern innovative design? This year, in addition to art, we will also launch a design exhibition planned by contemporary design curator AricChen. Aric is the curator of Miami Design Exhibition and a professor at Shanghai International Design Innovation Institute of Tongji University. Recently, Aric went to the Netherlands as the curator and artistic director of HetNieuweInstitut(HNI, Dutch Museum of Architecture, Design and Digital).
In the design part, contemporary artists and designers connect the inner world with the external structure of the city, the natural environment with personal thinking, and the material form with the changes of the times. Dozens of works by more than 20 global designers will set each other off in artistic works, bringing new context to the garden, trying to ask questions and construct a return to contemporary nature. What kind of ideas and inspirations can be triggered?
build
The relationship between architecture and environment is particularly important, which is very obvious in gardening. The gardens in Suzhou were built in various dynasties, which not only represented the mood of the gardeners, but also carried the architectural language of that era.
music
The night in the garden is quiet and beautiful. Bright lights, autumn wind slowly. It is unusual for you to walk in the garden at night and listen to music. This garden art festival will present you with a series of music performances and bring you a brand-new attempt.
As the first performance of the Garden Art Festival, we invited P.K. 14 lead singer, famous musician Yang, jazz producer and experimental musician Wen Zhiyong. They will cooperate on the stage for the first time and bring you an experimental performance of poetry and music. After that, a vinyl electronic concert will bring youthful vitality to the garden. In June165438+1October, two jazz concerts will be held in Canglang Pavilion and Keyuan respectively. Every performance will have Italian handmade beer sponsored by Houlang Craft, which takes wine as fun and brings you unparalleled audio-visual experience.
literature
Since ancient times, there have been many scholars in Suzhou, which has laid an inseparable relationship between the city and literature. One of the highlights of the festival is two dialogues with the Cultural Section of the French Consulate General. Among them, Confessions of Literature will invite Bi Feiyu, a contemporary writer in China, and famous writers today to explain their little-known mental journey in literary creation and how they were deeply influenced by France and French culture in this creative process.
The second "Intellectual Invitation Meeting" will have an in-depth and intimate dialogue with Xu Zhiyuan, the writer, one of the founders of the "Thirteen Invitations" program, the host and the founder of One-way Street Bookstore. We will have the opportunity to listen to Xu Zhiyuan about the formation and development of his ideological system and his understanding and interpretation of contemporary French culture. As the finale of Suzhou Garden Art Festival, Confessions of Literature and Art and Confessions of Thought will have many wonderful moments, which people are looking forward to!
sensitive
Suzhou people pay attention to "irregular diet". 24 solar terms a year, Suzhou has fresh seasonal ingredients. Little known is that there are many edible plants hidden in Suzhou gardens. Walking through Suzhou gardens in different seasons, we can see that different trees bear different fruits. This time, we will lead you to understand the relationship between Suzhou gardens, nature and food, and appreciate the subtle reality that we no longer pay attention to.
Have a dialogue
Suzhou Garden is not only a beautiful scenery, but also a place worthy of our consideration. The dialogue section in this garden art festival will bring rich lectures and discuss global topics such as nature, environment and sustainable development. Among them, JacobDreyer, the publisher of three series of lectures on "Sustainable Development and Green Future", jointly planned. Jacob works for palgrave Press, a leading publisher in the fields of economy, policy and law, and writes for famous magazines such as Financial Times and Nature.
