展览现场Exhibition View
最近几年，阎洲以今天艺术实践者敏感的现实心绪为出发点，通过引入对中古中国历史和文化的考察，尤其是重新征引考古遗迹、史料和历史笔记小说，展开对历史中的事件与变局的想象，并由此期望对今天紧迫的现实作出某种试探的回应，尝试提供新的历史“证据”和“叙述”今天的路径。此次展览是这一实践的最新一章，聚焦于中古中国的河北区域。中华帝国游移的边界穿越此地，这里既是文明交流的现场，也是民族龃龉与纠缠频繁到访的地带，复杂的地缘动态酝酿着彼时的内外之忧以及叛服的选择。

展览围绕一位中古中国最关键的反叛者（安禄山）被诛杀前夜的梦境而展开。几处历史笔记小说中角色博弈的场所，被安插进他的梦中，形成梦中梦的幻象。在梦中他与“雪衣娘”相遇，这只鹦鹉像是历史的幽灵，把远去的事件召回到近前，困扰着这位身处变局漩涡的反叛者。他在这场梦里情绪化的独白，诉说着彼时发生的一切，同时道出了其传奇的身世和对自身“斗战神”形象的猜疑。

展览中艺术家对历史场域及其可能关联的现实体感展开双向考证：他从今时与旧日的神似中，拟构出一座想象的“大厦”，凝视其将倾的时刻。一种虚掩在当下的不安弥漫在作品之中。透过类似“重摹”或“拓印”历史的动作，艺术家将我们意识中扁平的、关于中国这一场域遥远历史的模糊记忆再度激活，召唤那座将倾的“大厦”的替身与其身后的废墟。

拾萬空间（北京）于2014年成立于北京草场地艺术区，2018年迁至北京798艺术区，并于2021年年底开设石家庄分馆拾萬当代艺术中心。拾萬空间（北京）作为专业画廊，对常规意义的方盒子展览保持警惕，意欲从当代艺术语言中的语法和语意结构出发并将之延展到更广泛的领域；希望通过持续的展览和项目，激发出当下文化中被忽视的部分，将当代艺术思想的价值生发到你我的身边。拾萬当代艺术中心（石家庄）为艺术综合体，除继续推出专业的艺术展览外，还将提供公教、讲座、艺术工作坊、艺术商品以及餐饮等活动和服务，并依托地缘差异，将艺术、声音融入地理、人文的维度，由而体验与追寻传统与现代、本土与国际、在地与全域、个人与历史以及精神与实体之间的差别与关联，让当代艺术思想进入更多人的生活。
