12th Gwangju Biennale: Imagined Borders

倪灝携作品《结构研究V》参加策展人Jean de Loisy和Kim Seong Won的展览单元“Today Will Happen”。展览位于Gwangju Civic Center，展期将延续至2018年10月20日。
该单元为第12届光州双年展首次推出项目Pavilion Projects的组成部分，项目由Palais de Tokyo、Helsinki International Arist Programme - HIAP和Philippine Contemporary Art Network - PCAN三个国际领先艺术机构发起，为不同国家地区的新兴艺术家提供交流推广平台。
展览标题“Today Will Happen”取自法国作家米歇尔．维勒贝克（Michel Houellebecq）的同名诗歌，1996年出版于诗集《格斗的艺术》。维勒贝克的诗歌暗示了展览所指涉的“翻译的可能性”。来自不同文化背景的参展艺术家试图通过他们的作品展开一场开放性对话，以此揭示不同文化代码间碰撞的张力与对接的可能性。

Ni Hao's work Structure V is exhibited in the section “Today Will Happen” curated by Jean de Loisy and Kim Seong Won. Held in the Gwangju Civic Center, the exhibition will be open until October 20, 2018.
“Today Will Happen” is a part of the Pavilion Projects, hosted for the first time by the 12th Gwangju Biennale, beginning with three leading international art institutions to connect the Gwangju region to a wider arts community. The Pavilion Project is a forum for exchange and promotion between countries to present emerging artists from their own countries alongside Korean artists.
The exhibition “Today Will Happen” takes its title from Michel Houellebecq’s poem of the same name, published in “The Art of Struggle” in 1996. Houellebecq's poem suggests the "possibility of translation" that sets the exhibition in motion. The artists coming from various cultural backgrounds invited to this exhibition are engaged in an open discussion to reveal the tension and connection between different cultural codes.

结构研究 V
2018
多种管乐器，表面经由人造汗与尿液处理的软钢，空气压缩机，气动软管，计时器，及其他综合材料，约190 x 250 x 250 cm
《结构研究V》是“结构研究”系列的最新作品。该系列以表演与雕塑装置为主要媒介，探索声音、雕塑与暴力的历史三者的相互关系，是艺术家正在持续进行的项目。在这件作品里，来自东西方大批量廉价生产的各式管乐器被编织进一个大型根茎状钢铁结构，后者的表面经过人造汗与尿液处理，以此引发钢铁逐渐生锈。雕塑的声音被设置为随机化，由空气压缩机、电磁阀和计时器控制。
Structure Study V
2018
Various wind instruments, artificial sweat and urine on mild steel, air compressors, pneumatic hoses, timers, and other mixed media, Approx. 190 x 250 x 250 cm
Structure Study V is the latest work of an on-going series called Structure Studies, which are performances and sculptural installations that explore the relationship between sound, sculptures, and histories of violence. In this work, various cheap and mass-produced wind instruments from both the east and the west are heavily manipulated and woven into a large and rhizomatic steel structure. The surface of the steel structure is treated with artificial sweat and urine to induce rust that will grow over time. The sound of the sculpture is programmed to be randomised through using air compressors and solenoid air valves with timers.
