关于尤莉•约翰逊 ／ About Ulrike Johannsen

德国出生，在维也纳生活和工作的艺术家尤莉•约翰逊的作品主要关注的是文化之间的切磋和交流，以及对于社会的集体构建。通过她一系列的装置、现成 品和纸上作品，约翰逊始终置疑着被消费向导的生活方式给人们带来的关于“幸福”的许诺。通过巧妙地利用大众传媒和挑逗文化产业中的技术性手段，她为人们揭 示出人类欲望与后资本社会之间的缝隙。

约翰逊从2008年起在中国的工作成果，呈现在她近期的作品《斯德哥尔摩综合症》以及2010年春天在Baden艺术协会策划的群展“东西 Things”中。（点击这里－见家作坊关于此次展览的作品）

Ulrike Johannsen’s work is focused upon the negotiation and communication of culture and the collective contruction of society. Employing a range from installation, objects to paper, Johanssen questions the promises of happiness offered by the consumer-oriented lifestyle. By manipulating popular media and flirting with the mechanics of the culture industry, she reveals the gaps between human desire and post-capitalist society.

Johanssen’s engagement with China since 2008 has resulted in her latest work, entitled “Stockholm Syndrome”, and the curation of the group exhibition “东西 Things” opening at the Kunstverein Baden in 2010. (See HomeShop’s contribution to the exhibition here)
