弗朗西斯科·戈雅
理性沉睡心魔生焉 1798-99
铜板雕刻版画，凹板腐蚀制版
普拉多美术馆，马德里
关于「失眠」
文 | Julie Chun
在艺术史上有一个著名的图像是弗朗西斯.戈雅的铜版画《理性沉睡心魔生焉》。这幅图像是戈雅在1798-1799年创作的80幅版画中的第43幅，并且发表在系列《狂想曲》中（任性或愚蠢）。其中伏案的人物被认为是艺术家本人，尽管身后梦魇徘徊仍然在熟睡之中。梦魇比一个单纯的噩梦要令人不安令人害怕的多的。它作为焦虑、压力和抑郁的心理触发诱因—— 与失眠类似。梦魇的目标是唤醒那些正在经历折磨的人。然而，具有讽刺意味的是，释放只能暂时的缓解，因为一旦完全清醒，失眠就会成为不安的慰藉。
对于艺术家钱儒雅来说，追逐她内心平静和安全感的怪物不是动机的理性，而是当今后数字时代弥漫的非理性矛盾，这里的“后”似乎遥遥无期。因此，相反于抗拒这个怪物抢夺自己的睡眠，她拥抱了失眠的力量。在想象力的指引下，和她内在的自我发现过程中，儒雅的挑衅地制作的静止和动态图像转化为充满感情的视觉诗歌，她努力在一个并不总是青睐那么青睐不顺从者的社会里找到一个适合自己的位置。焦虑、不安和恐惧的明显举止富有想象力的放置在儒雅和她的娃娃，异性以及同性，还有她自己的关系之中。对于儒雅来说，无法入睡不再是一个失败宣言，而是一个驾驭她的的怪物使之成为一个自愈的工具。

关于摄影师

钱儒雅
钱儒雅，制造于中国苏州，曾于加州旧金山深造，目前生活在上海。她的艺术是实践利用摄影，动态图像，装置作为媒介去探索感知的二分法和张力，无论这些感知是由社会或者个人触发。通过大力挖掘艺术家自我肖像的遗产，儒雅将自我嵌入并在她图像的构成中将自己重新定位。她利用每个人都具有的二元性，努力与公众自我谈判内在自我的私密和黑暗的领域，这些领域必须符合严格的社会期望才能工作和生存。儒雅大胆地用二元性去探讨挑战性和性别的固有模式，即使在LG(LGBTQ中的)被社会接受的今天，BTQ仍然没有。儒雅的作品意味深长且辛辣地通过把边缘折叠到中央而将外围去中心化。不知不觉无间断地，当我们驻足在儒雅的视角，通过自己镜头目击的无限私人但又有普世性的视觉故事前，是时候去拥抱下人性了。

钱儒雅在上海交通大学获得学士学位，旧金山艺术学院获得摄影的硕士学位。她的艺术实践主要以摄影，动态图像以及装置为媒介。她入围了2016年北京三影堂摄影奖，也入围了2017和2018年加拿大fotofilmic名单以及2018青衿青年艺术家计划等等。2018年和2019年，也受邀参加了位于宁波摄影艺术中心的大型群展。视频作品也作为“The Gallery Project”的一部分参加了2018年纽约的Armory Show.

摄影分享会
「日本私摄影，到底是什么」

上个世纪五六十年代，随着日本经济快速发展，照相机也得到了大面积的普及。摄影不仅仅只是一种美学式的表现方式，而是直接介入人们的个体表达、主体建构的日常生活之中。在这个背景下，日本摄影开始出现了一股潮流，摆脱以往的宏大叙事式的摄影表现，转向个人纪实、主观纪实等与个人史有关的摄影创作。到了1960年代末70年代初，开始出现了以探索个人与社会的关系，探索个人存在价值为主要表现方向的私摄影，并在之后的摄影发展中产生了相当大的影响，本次讲座，我们希望通过几位关键摄影家的创作经历，来梳理日本私摄影发展的脉络，借此机会也探讨摄影与个人的关系、摄影与社会的关系。

「Insomnia」
Ruya Qian, Solo Exhibition
Curatorial Statement
By Julie Chun, Art Historian and Critic
The Opening Ceremony
10:29（Tue）16:00-19:00

Francisco Goya
The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters, 1798-99
Etching, aquatint, drypoint and burin
Museo del Prado, Madrid
About「Insomnia」
By Julie Chun
A notoriously famous image in art history that has a cult following is Francisco Goya’s etching The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters. This image is number 43 of eighty aquatint prints that Goya created in 1798-99 and published in the album Los Caprichos (caprices or follies). The man slumped over the desk is believed to be the artist himself who remains in deep slumber despite the nightmares hovering over him. Nightmare is much more troubling and terrifying than merely a bad dream. It acts as a psychological trigger of anxiety, stress and depression - the similar triggers as insomnia. The purpose of nightmare is to awaken those who are experiencing torment. Yet, ironically, release only provides momentarily respite because once fully conscious, insomnia then dominates as restless solace.
For the artist Ruya Qian, the monsters chasing away her inner peace and security are not the rationality of reason but the irrational ambivalence pervading in the present post-digital age where the “post” seems nowhere in sight. Hence, rather than resisting her monsters that snatch away her ability sleep, she gives in to the powers of insomnia. In her inherent search for self-discovery, guided by her imagination, Ruya’s provocatively crafted still and moving images translate into emotionally charged visual poetry as she strives to locate her rightful place in a society that does not always favor those who do not conform. The palpable demeanor of anxiety, restlessness and apprehension are eloquently positioned within the sphere of the real and imagined through Ruya’s relationship with her dolls, the opposite and the same sex as well as her own self. For Ruya, sleep no more is not a declaration of defeat but a call to harness her monsters into her playthings to claim her self-recovery.

About Ruya Qian

Ruya Qian
Ruya Qian is made in Suzhou, developed in San Francisco, California and based in Shanghai. Her artistic practice utilizes the medium of photography, moving images and installation to explore the dichotomies and tensions of perception, whether it is triggered by society or the individual. Heavily mining the legacy of artist self-portraiture, Ruya embeds and re-positions her own self into the composition of her images. Exploiting the duality embodied in every human being, she strives to negotiate the private and dark spheres of the inner self against the public self that must conform to the stringent social expectations in order to work and survive. Ruya boldly pushes the trope of duality against the expected parameters of sex and gender, even in the present day where the LG (of LGBTQ) is socially accepted but the BTQ is still not. Ruya’s work eloquently and poignantly addresses and decenters the periphery by enfolding the margin into the central. Unobtrusively yet seamlessly, it is time to embrace the humanity in each of us as we stop to engage in the visual narrative of Ruya’s untold personal yet universal story witnessed through the lens of Ruya Qian’s powerful vision.
Ruya Qian received her BA from Shanghai Jiaotong University and MFA in Photography from the San Francisco Art Institute in California, USA. Her artistic practice is centered on photography moving images and installation. She was the finalist of Beijing’s prestigious Three Shadows’ Photography Award in 2016 and was Fotofilmic shortlist in 2017 abd 2018 as well as the receipient off the China Young Elite Artist in 2018, among others. She was invited to participated in the large-scale Ningbo Photography Week in 2018 and 2010. Her moving images were included in “The Gallery Project” at the 2018 Armory Show in New York.

Julie's Talk
「Artists and Their Self-Portraiture」
Why do artists seek to capture their ownimage as works of art? Is it to satisfy an egotistical impulse or is it becausetheir own self serves as a convenient model? How did the construct ofself-portraiture emerge as an art historical genre? Art Historian and AdjunctProfessor of Art History Julie Chun will discuss the evolution of self-portraitureby artists from its earliest renderings to present day by deconstructing aselection of paintings, drawings and photographs by artists who used theirouter visage to depict their inner expressions.
