　　展览前言:

　　NONO是重复的拒绝和反对, 还是对拒绝的反对? 到底是说不还是不说不? 真实地呈现了当代艺术的小题大做和大题小做的矛盾。虽然无策展人, 无主题, 但还是从各自的角度紧密地和对现实的态度有所联系。 在这样一个注重策展人话语权的时代，策展人的缺失毋宁说是某种残缺或另类的张扬。相对于一些有名无实的策展行为，拒绝策展人参与是一种赤裸的真实和试验。他们自耕自种、自我造局，展览本身是自发、自主、自然而然的，是切磋过招，也是集体游戏。艺术家们对这次共同亮相是有某种共识的，这种共识的前提是能够玩到一起的相互关联。可以夸大为源自形而上的艺术理想，亦或只是简单的形而下的生活经验。这里是一个事实呈现，被自主包裹的艺术聪慧，被自由困住的艺术真诚。中国当代艺术幻象中的沼泽和自救，艺术和艺术家的“瓶颈”是假设演习还是危机面临？当代艺术家的社会理想主义情怀能在多大程度上得到回应？是双向选择还是一厢情愿？所有的困惑、矛盾所指向的是当代艺术生态还是艺术家本身, 抑或是 “展览” 这个问题的现场？

　　Is NONO a double refusal and rejection, or is it the rejection of refusal? Is it saying no, or not saying no? Perhaps the phrase accurately presents the current contradiction in contemporary art, both large and small. The exhibition, curatorless and themeless, is nonetheless linked with each artist’s personal perspective and their attitude towards the contemporary. In a period accustomed to the enfeebled iscourse of the curator, is the lack of a curator an inadequacy or a new type of artistic flamboyance? In contrast to naming a curator for the sake of having a curator, the act of refusing a curator is a direct and raw reality and experiment. The artist’s have done it all DIY, the exhibition itself is spontaneous, autonomous and naturally occurring exchange of experiences as well as a collective game. There is a consensus among the artists, one that is premised upon the ability to amuse one another. One can conflate it to a metaphysical artistic ideal, or a mundane and profane experience. This is a presentation of this reality, a self-referential packaging of artistic intelligence, and an artistic sincerity restricted by its own freedom. Is there an illusion of swampy marshes from which contemporary Chinese artists must rescue themselves? Is a “bottle neck” among art and artists a hypothetical exercise, or a sign of imminent disaster? To what degree can an artist’s social idealism incite response? Can the work be engaging, or will it merely exist as the artist’s self-delusion? Do these conflicting realities point at a deficiency in the practice of contemporary art, or in the artists themselves; or perhaps it is the “exhibition” which is the site of the problem?
