tamtamART is pleased to present "TANGIBLE INTANGIBLE", a group exhibition curated by Chun-Chi Wang. The exhibition will open on December 10 and will be on view until December 18. The opening reception scheduled for Friday, December 10, 8pm will include a live concert by Sohrab (Iran) beginning at 9.00 pm.

"TANGIBLE INTANGIBLE" brings together film and digital video by eight contemporary artists of "As you shout into the forest, so it echoes back" by St. & St. , "End Transmission" by Yin-Ju Chen & James T. Hong, "WILDLAND" by Valérie Leray & Chun-chi Wang, and "Five Regulations" by Chaong-Wen Ting & Chien-Ni Hung.

“End Transmission” (2010 - DVD, b&w, stereo, running time: 15:40 minutes), A decoded, alien environmental message, structured as a hypnotic experimental film, forcefully and poetically warns us of their return and the planet’s re-colonization.
James T. Hong has been producing thought-provoking, unconventional, and occasionally controversial films and videos for over a decade. He splits his time between the USA, Europe, and Asia.
Yin-Ju Chen is a Taiwanese multidisciplinary artist. Her main medium is video, but her works also include photo performances, installations, and drawings. She is currently a resident of the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

“As you shout into the forest, so it echoes back” (2010 - a one channel video installation, running time 2:17 minutes), In their work St. & St. explore hierarchic and bureaucratic systems, standardization as well as stereotypical thinking that are all based on communication or the lack of it.
St. & St. is the name of the artist team Stephanie Gerner and Stephan Halter and was founded in 2009. Both are born in Germany, living and working in Berlin. And their work showed 2009/2010 in several screening events in Berlin, London, Dumbo ArtsFestival in New York, and Industrial 59 during the First Ural and Industrial Biennial in Ekaterinburg/Russia. Stephanie Gerner and Stephan Halter work also as solo artists for many years. Their works were shown nationally and internationally in different projects and festivals.

“Wildland” (2010 - a two-channel video installation, running time: 4 minutes), Wildland is a poetic contemporary representation of the place of the body's woman in our society, the posture of the woman in this kind of landscape. It refers to the painting of the birth of Venus from Botticelli and a trivial posture of women in the contemporary image.
Valérie Leray lives and works in Orléans (France). Her project "Nomads " was awarded the label of “the European Year for Intercultural Dialog” and received the prize of the Centre France DRAC. Since 1999, she is the Artistic Director of the Association La Mire (ex Lumen) in Orléans, which is aimed at promoting Visual Arts and teacher in the artistic workshop in school.
Chun-Chi Wang is a Taiwanese artist based in Berlin. She uses interactive video installations, performance, photography and all the current tools of the digital image to study the new relationship between humans and technology. Her works have been shown widely on the net and in international exhibitions throughout Europe, USA and Asia.

"Five Regulations" (2010 – DVD, color, running time: 5 minutes)
Two artists who live their lives separately in Paris and in London decided to exchange three clips of footages and each make an independent video based on the six clips and five regulations that they agreed upon. The same imagery, through various interpretations, developed into different narratives. Both stories are left open for further imagination and understanding, it can be said that the work ends in the interpretation of the spectators.
Chaong-Wen Ting lives and works in Taiwan and Paris. After graduating Plastic Arts of Tainan National University of the Arts (MFA), Ting was a display designer for Issey Miyake in Taiwan also he took part in several exhibitions.He is currently in residence at the Cité Internationale des Arts Paris.
Chien-Ni Hung was born in Taiwan, she studied fine art at Slade school of fine art, UCL. Her works are shown across Europe and Asia but predominantly in the UK, where she is currently based. She investigates ‘reality’ through fiction, combining materials with staged and (or) improvised actors. She is interested in a wide range of topics and mediums, however, video probably remains as one of the most used form in her work.

動作之外、聲音以內文/王柏偉

05 October 2010

無限空間的永恆寂靜讓我恐懼不已。
—Blaise Pascal

凝視著書毅的動作，我們將注意力主要分配給視覺。同時位於我們感知範圍內的聲音下錨何處？

一、詩剝裂

且讓我們回望兩個歷史場景。
場景一，圖書館中的Faust。

Wie anders wirkt dies Zeichen auf mich ein!
Du, Geist der Erde, bist mir näher;
Schon fühl´ ich meine Kräfte höher,
Schon glüh´ ich wie von neuem Wein. […]
Ich fühl´s, du schwebst um mich, erflehter Geist.
為何這符號撼動我非常！
你，地之靈啊，再靠我近些吧；
已經盈滿了我的力量高漲，
已經燃燒了我彷彿飲了新釀，[...]
我感受到了，欺近吧，你這我所召喚的神靈。
—Johann Wolfgang von Goethe，《Faust》

“Invisible Stranger”

06 September 2010

The “Invisible Stranger” examines the relationship of the familiar and unfamiliar through geography and culture in a series of work created by local Berlin artists as well as international artists. The work is to be viewed at the Tamtam8 Art Space from September 10 to October 9th, 2010 as well as with the SecondHome Art Project alongside the Berlin Art Fair in October 7 to 10, 2010.

The title “Invisible Stranger” is borrowed from German sociologist Georg Simmel, who wrote the essay 'The Stranger' that states, "The Stranger is close to us, insofar as we feel between him and ourselves common features of a national, social, occupational, or generally human, nature. He is far from us, insofar as these common features extend beyond him or us, and connect us only because they connect a great many people. “[1]

The 'Invisible Stranger' aims to bring together life experiences both foreign and familiar into an artistic realm in hopes to expand dialogue and enrich our perspectives of the world we all inhabit. In this digital age of rapidly advancing technology, omnipresent connectivity, visual stimuli and increasing mobility, we are constantly exposed to strange new places and strange new people that shape us all in familiar as well as strange and mysterious ways.

Mirror, mirror on the wall

13 July 2010

Mirror, mirror on the wall

Artists :

Ting-Tong Chang / David Loom / Iva Kontic' / Xinyi Liu / Susana Mendes Silva

Curated by
Ming-Jiun Tsai 蔡明君
Vernissage : 24 JUL. 20:00
Open : 24 JUL - 15 AUG. Fr.-So 15:00-20:00

Mirror, mirror on the wall is a research project structured within curatorial framework to examine the discourse on contemporary art in relation to the everyday. Underlining the concept of tales – giving a sense of being out of the context of reality, yet disclose the most truthful criticism of social relationships –the project brings together five artists to create commissioned works or presentworks correlating to the concept.

Mirror, mirror on the wall 邀請五位以不同媒材手法創作的藝術家為本展覽特地製作作品，轉借「白雪公主」故事中魔鏡的概念以及「寓言」的特質，企圖藉由藝術家進入一個陌生城市進行研究提出新作品的過程，去探討藝術創作策展研究與日常生活的關係。

閱讀「大女圖」文/羅頌恩

閱讀「大女圖」

1860年藝術史學家布克哈德(Jacob Burckhardt, 1818-1897)在他的著作《文藝復興的文化》(Kultur der Renaissance)中，嘗試將審視藝術作品的眼光推向文化歷史的範疇，與當時經濟繁榮的社會脈動相互結合，在如網絡般的關係裡，以此查考藝術形式產生時的種種條件與因素。

而從二十世紀的藝術理論，在梅洛龐帝(Maurice Merleau-Ponty, 1908-1961) 對知覺的定義中，可以理解到身體與某個世界間，相互存在著非常緊密地牽連。這裡所強調的，除了主體無法脫離關係而自我存有以外，社會脈動的變遷，也對藝術的產生有著關鍵性的影響。主體的創作狀態、作品中所夾帶那來自於自身的社會性特質，加上展出空間的屬地性格，都能在觀者的眼光之下，反覆推敲、得到啟發。今以此為基礎，進一步地審視2010年五月，八位台灣女同志藝術創作者，以自身身分定位為議題，在德國柏林之東的斐特烈斯海恩區（Friedrichshain）TAMTAM 8畫廊，呈現「大女圖」的聯合展覽。

8Femmes - Matteo Pollini

08 July 2010

8Femmes – at Tamtam8, Berlin – is the result of the exploration of eight Taiwanese female artists on the subject of womanhood. The artists at work in this project unfolded the intricate premise in such a variety of perspectives that the relatively small exhibition leaves the viewer with the impression of having completed an intense journey. Framing – literally – the exhibition is the large work of Ming-Juin Tsai, a series of drawings made on the windows of the gallery depicting different scenes taken from gay pride parades translated into massive, colored comic strips. The childish characters populating these drawings, claiming for their rights, set the atmosphere for a show that despite the unequivocal title seem to address society in its totality. Once inside the exhibition space, the viewer meets the work of Wenjei Cheng Identity is a river – three collages representing a human body formed by cutouts of body parts collected from various magazines – evoking the fragility and inadequacy of the body as sole measure unit of one’s identity. The Frankeinsteinesque features of the collage-people are carefully composed by Cheng, then printed as if this last process was the only way of fixing the ephemeral elements in a shape or form easily recognizable. Her characters are clearly non-human figures, yet the viewer’s gaze scans them in search of familiar elements that could help defining the entities depicted. At the other end of the gallery, Ching Chwang Ho’s sculptural installation The Association of Mussels remains in the realm of allusion; Instead of using pieces of two-dimensional images, Ho decides to materialize on the floor an actual mattress completed with wet stains of bodily fluids. On top of it lies a pillow, carved to reveal its feathers and a monitor that shows blurred close-up images of a vagina but which actually are photographs of mussels.
