Travelers, meeting the world

Travelers, meeting the world 🛤 "Li Xiaoliang: Traveler" photography and video exhibition is presented on the 2nd and 3rd floors of Gallery 1 at the Today Art Museum. Curated by Chen Li, the exhibition showcases Li Xiaoliang's continuous series of works from 2021 to 2024, including 'Presence,' 'New House,' 'Melting Wax,' 'Journey to Nowhere,' 'Echo,' and more, presenting the performative scene of visual language. The INNOUT band surprises with a live performance, with guitarist Xiao Jun and drummer An Yu igniting the atmosphere on site. 🛣 Paint traces in the parking lot, new houses in the Tibetan area, streets and pedestrians from around the world, images shot in real scenes and then regenerated through data... The dramatic spatial presentation blurs the boundaries between imagination and reality. Whether celebrities, independent musicians, or foreign models, the live scenes of these different types of cultural creators form another thread of the exhibition. 📷 Whether it's portraits of people or records of natural landscapes and daily life, Li Xiaoliang's creations attempt to capture the loosening of perception between the original appearance, memory retention, and loss, allowing images and scenes to generate naturally with minimal intervention. The drama under the order of daily life overflows, flowing between reality and fiction, recording and imagination. ▫️Journey to Nowhere▫️ Breaking the boundaries between reality and virtuality, presenting imaginations and prospects for the future. ▫️Echo▫️ An automatically triggered interactive shooting device, focusing on recording the relationship between people and screen images. ▫️Melting Wax▫️ Using video to record the natural temperatures of different locations, embedding temperature imagery into corresponding scenes, showcasing the emotions and breath of nature. ▫️New House▫️ Recording the lives and living spaces of residents in the artist's Tibetan hometown, experiencing the collision and fusion of tradition and modernity, and glimpsing the identity recognition and evolution of ethnic culture on the land of multi-ethnic coexistence. ▫️Presence▫️ The artist Li Xiaoliang, as a participant, experienced the golden age of rapid development in fashion media, recording many public figures such as actors, directors, and artists with a unique perspective and photographic language. 🎨Li Xiaoliang: Traveler Li Xiaoliang: Journey to nowhere ⏱From now until 2024.7.14 📍Today Art Museum Gallery 1, 2nd and 3rd floors
