作品陈述

 

这个作品是戴陈连剧场作品计划中的“演员”系列，作品专注于研究曾经合作过的演员陆隽斐在改革开放政策背景下学习通信工程而后进入外资企业的成因，既有朴实动人的讲述，也穿插旁白和职业外贸管理动作表演。陆隽斐将工作之余的爱好芭蕾舞基础姿势、日常习惯动作、外贸职业礼仪动作教授于戴陈连，这既是两人重逢后相互学习的友谊之情，也是身体动作互溶后的精神连接。废弃和重建混合关系的没顶美术馆空间中，戴陈连将用这个表演展示陆隽斐，展示的是她的迷茫和快乐，过去和现在，重现了陆隽斐对从事外贸事务历史的追溯和审视，（外商在中国投资的历史，由外商提供设备、原材料、来样，并负责产品外销，由中国企业提供土地、厂房、劳动力的“三来一补”经贸合作模式在改革开放后十分普遍），是一部属于她的个人史，也是一代人的共同记忆。

 

注：陆隽斐是我之前展览时合作过的演员，上海人。她从事建筑行业外贸管理，她在疫情中的展览时参与了我的作品，我们间断会微信问候，已经两年没见，借由这次展览的机会我们将在上海再次重聚。

 

 

 

Work Statement

 

Part of the "Actor" series of Dai Chenlian's theater project, the work focuses on the reasons why Lu Junfei, an actor the artist once worked with, studied communication engineering under the back-ground of the Reform and Opening-up policy and then entered a foreign-funded enterprise.The work consists of simple yet moving storytelling as well as a voiceover accompanied by a perfor-mance of movements related to professional foreign trade management. Lu taught Dai the basic postures of ballet, daily habitual movements and professional etiquette movements of foreign trade, which is not only the friendship of mutual learning after their reunion, but also the spiritual connection after the integration of their physical movements. In the space of Madeln Art Museum, where the relationship between abandonment and reconstruction fuse together, Dais presenting Lu with this performance, showing her confusion and happiness, past and present, retracing and reexamining Lut's histony of engaging in foreign trade affairs.(Foreigners provided equipment, raw materials, incoming samples and exporting products. In the meantime, Chinese enterprises provicded land, plants and labor. This mode of foreign trade and collaboration prevailed in the country after the Reform and Opening-up.) The work narrates a personal history belonging to Lu and a common memory of a generation.

 

Note: Lu Junfei is a Shanghai-native actor Dai previously worked with. She is engaged in foreign

trade management in the construction industry. She paiticipated in Dai's work during an exhibi-

tion during the pandemic. The two have been sending greetings to each other via WeChat but haven't met each other for two years. This exhibition signifies Dai and Lu's reunion.
