This is the fourth edition of “Limited Free Time“ Art program, which was launched on July 3, 2008. In a "non-thematic" and "non-curatorial" way, the project allows artists to have more space to explore the relationship between their works and the site. There are many unknown factors in this process, it is difficult to predict the final result, the final completion is a co-creation.
Due to the impact of the epidemic, the exhibition has made corresponding adjustments in various aspects, such as a dialect in the title of the exhibition has been changed into a garbled code. And this transition is also a kind of active or passive "aphasia" that we all experienced in the process of preparing this exhibition. But this "aphasia" is not pessimistic, but can be seen as a self-repair after a major blow. "I believe your @ $%&*" is in the "aphasia" state, the question of a variety of phenomena. In the exhibition, Ge Yulu's "Not present" forced the exhibition to empty half of the exhibition hall; Li Liao's "Love Letter", in a pile of mobile phones, several mobile phones loudly rebuked the mobile phones are all fake; Shi Chong's Gap is a simulation of "simulation", which insinuates the psychological and physiological conditions under the special social and political environment with fragmented images. Jin Jinghong's "Park" and other works present the state of natural landscape being divided by artificial landscape, and explore the dialectical relationship between the illusion of "reality" and the reality of "illusion". Other artists included in the exhibition are Chen Bo, Deng Wei, Fu Xiaodong, Li Jikai, Li Yu + Liu Bo, Lin Xin, Shi Jinsong, Wang Sishun, Wang Sicheng, Xu Xiaoding, Zeng Fanzhi, Zhang Lian and Zheng Da.
In our collective activities, we often have the arrangement of "free time", although it is always limited in time and scope, but at that time, we always yearn for "free time".
