北京/艺术文件仓库Beijing/China Art Archives andWarehouse90年代中期中国艺术界是很沉闷的,没有画廊也没有展示空间,展览不是在旅馆的走廊就是在镜框店,或者是在大使馆工作人员的家里。当时汉斯(戴汉志,1946-2002)很热衷搞空间,所以我就说我们一起来做。为什么叫艺术文件仓库呢?当时做画廊要经过特别审批,叫仓库就不用。我们当时在南三环龙爪树一个印刷厂里,是北京第一家也是最大的一家这种类型的画廊,空间比较美国化。 Beijing / China Art Archives andWarehouse In the mid-1990s, China’s petrochemical industry was quite underplace. There were no galleries or exhibitions. The exhibition was not at the hotel corridor, at the mirror store, or at the embassy staff’s home. At that time, Hans (Dai Hanzhi, 1946-2002) was keen to engage in space, so I said we would do it together. Why is the art file warehouse? At that time, the gallery was subject to special approval, called the warehouse would not. We were a printing house in the Longshao tree in the South Third Ring Road at the time. We were the first and largest gallery in Beijing of this type. The space was more Americanized.
