群展 “ENCONTRO DE RIOS -URBAN DIALOGUES- @Espaço Espelho D´água”

这些是葡萄牙里斯本的一个艺术家集団“Urban Dialogue 城市对话”群展的照片，我与”Urban Dialogue”已合作了9年。我也去了里斯本准备展览。
“城市对话”共有10名成员，此次参展的有7位艺术家，5人聚集在本地展览空间。
EspaçoEspelhoD’água是一个文化中心，包括烹饪学(gastronomy)餐厅，展览空间和艺术家驻留用的房间。
它位于塔霍河畔的最佳位置。在这附近有一座宫殿，老板马里奥先生说：“这是里斯本最风景秀丽的地方之一，所以宫殿建在这里，这也是我决定在这里开设EspaçoEspelhoD’água的原因之一。
我在这里住了一个艺术家驻留的房间一个星期，并准备与其他艺术家一起展览。
他们每天为我们提供早餐和另外一餐，我们每天都在这里的餐厅吃饭，我们在露台座位上吃饭，俯瞰河边吃饭，同时喝着葡萄牙葡萄酒，味道也很好，就好像我来到了假期。
它就在Belém地区发现纪念碑西侧的隔壁，所以我也为旅游过来里斯本的人推荐这个地方。
因为这里的附近都是观光景点，有些餐馆价格昂贵且不太好吃，但我觉得如果你来这里就不会失望。但仅仅因为这里的生意非常好，取决于时间，它非常拥挤。

TRIBUTARIES -支流-
我们的展览反映了由来自世界各地的好奇的国际艺术家通过流动和思想流动的潮流和溪流推动塔霍河的全球航行。里斯本曾经是世界上最大的航海探索之都，已成为21世纪四大洲艺术家集団，URBAN DIALOGUES -城市对话- 的舰队。

以EspaçoEspelhod’Água的美食为主，与东西方的包容性和独特风味相呼应，Urban Dialogues艺术家们结合了不同的文化和想法，通过声音和图像的大海提供创造性的作品，反映出这种过多的异国情调，专注于我们的差异和相似之处。

URBAN DIALOGUES 城市对话
Urban Dialogues是一群来自不同城市和文化的艺术家，他们尝试着合作，弥合他们的全球多样性和艺术相似性。

该集団通过摄影・数字艺术和视频艺术，研究文化・自然・城市干预・城市和技术之间的复杂互动，捕捉我们个人和集体历史的矛盾和类比，反映当今全球参与的新时代。
URBAN DIALOGUES 艺术家们都通过艺术家社交网站相遇，聚集在一起并使用虚拟工具开发作品。

该集団将于9月24日至29日在EspaçoEspelhoD’Água艺术家驻留房间度过一周，为今年4月开始的工作流程提供顺序，并将于9月30日的开幕会完成该集団的展览。

群展 "ENCONTRO DE RIOS -URBAN DIALOGUES- @Espaço Espelho D´água" Hidemi Shimura A poem SAME SEA on above dedicated to this exhibition by Frie J. Jacobs.

SAME SEA

When you see yourself
as a little boat on a river
and the river is getting bigger
you flow with the water as
the opposite direction
is impossible to go

You have no paddles
stuck in bushes by the shore
meet uncertain peril
as well as soothing harmony

and all things in between

Within a river’s stream of life
no life is the same, even if floated
alongside the world’s population

We all have to flux our own river
into tributaries that anchor us
to the same body of water

The waves of the estuary
are almost no waves
they are slower
therefore more beautiful

In the end
all the rivers mix and swirl into a
sea of similarity.
