OLIVER HERRING Areas of Action Selection

奥利弗·赫林| OLIVER HERRING

Oliver Herring,1964年出生于德国海德堡,现生活并工作于纽约布鲁克林。他的作品涉猎甚广,从早期用聚酯带编织的雕塑,到实 验视频、合成照片雕塑,直至最近的TASK活动——邀请参与者全面参与作品的塑造,为每一个人都分配了创作任务。 自1998年, 时常邀请其他人加入自己的创作。从定格视频到精心制作的照片雕塑,这些密切的互动使得他的创作拓展到 了全新的领域,并在更 为开放的TASK系列活动、派对和开放工坊中达到了顶峰。尽管形式各异,他的所有艺术项目都围 绕着社交互动、人际关系以及趣味 实验这三大核心要素。

Herring曾在纽约现代艺术博物馆、纽约古根海姆博物馆、华盛顿赫什霍恩博物馆及雕塑公园、英国伦敦卡姆登艺术中心、 日本京都 艺术中心、中国深圳何香凝美术馆、“每日奇观”-第十届里昂当代艺术双年展、2010年度日本名古屋爱知三年展、 纽约Performa 09行为艺术双年展等地举办展览。《Art 21》杂志第3期对他进行了特别报道。

Oliver Herring was born in Heidelberg, Germany in 1964. He lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. His ever-expanding body of work ranges from early sculptures knit with Mylar tape to experimental videos, complex photo-sculptures, and TASK events,which invite participants to entirely shape the work by assigning each other creative tasks to complete.Since 1998 Herring has regularly involved other people in his work. From stop-motion videos, scrupulously rendered pho- to-sculptures, and participatory performances, these intimate interactions have expanded his practice into new realms, culminating in the more open series of TASK Events, Parties, and Workshops. Though varied in form, his projects share a focus on social interactions, human relationships, and playful experimentation.

Herring has exhibited widely including the Museum of Modern Art, NY; the Solomon R.Guggenheim Museum of Art, NY; The Hirschhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC; the Camden Arts Centre, London, England; the Kyoto Art Center, Kyoto, Japan; the He Xiangning Art Museum, Shenzhen, China; the Xth Lyon Biennale, Lyon, France; the 2010 Aichi Triennale, Nagoya, Japan; Performa 09, NY; and many others venues. In 2009 the Tang Museum, Saratoga Springs, NY organized a 15 year survey of Herring’s work. Herring was featured on Season 3 of Art21/PBs’s program: Art21, Art in the 21st Century.
