商品描述

Meditations inspired by Polys Peslikas's exhbition at the Cyprus Pavilion at the 2017 Venice Biennale.

Faint on stage? Umm Kulthum never did. It was the the audience that swooned when she sang. ButwWhat if, overcome by the power of her song, the singer herself had passed out? What would have ensued during the sudden silence? Umm Kulthum faints on stage is the title Polys Peslikas coined for one of the paintings in his exhibition The future of colour at the Cyprus Pavilion during the 57th Venice Biennale in 2017. This book offers stories and thoughts inspired by Peslikas's paintings.

A retrospective meditation on the exhibition, the book includes a piece of punk existentialist poetry by the artist group Neoterismoi Toumazou; an interview of celebrated ceramist Valentinos Charalambous by pavilion curator Jan Verwoert, conducted during a visit to Nefertiti's bust at the Neues Museum in Berlin; a short story by New York-based artist-writer Mirene Arsanios, echoing the 1980s childhood experience of temporarily living in Cyprus; and a contextual essay about the work of Peslikas.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

受波利斯·佩斯利卡斯（Polys Peslikas）於2017年威尼斯雙年展塞浦路斯館展覽啟發的沉思。

在舞台上暈倒？烏姆·庫爾圖姆（Umm Kulthum）從未這樣做過。是觀眾在她唱歌時陶醉不已。但如果因為她歌曲的力量而使歌手自己暈倒了呢？在突如其來的沉默中會發生什麼？烏姆·庫爾圖姆在舞台上暈倒是波利斯·佩斯利卡斯為他在2017年第57屆威尼斯雙年展塞浦路斯館展覽色彩的未來中的一幅畫所創造的標題。本書提供了受佩斯利卡斯畫作啟發的故事和思考。

這本書是對展覽的回顧性沉思，包含了藝術家團體Neoterismoi Toumazou的一首朋克存在主義詩；著名陶藝家瓦倫丁·查拉蘭布斯（Valentinos Charalambous）接受館長簡·維沃特（Jan Verwoert）訪談的內容，該訪談是在柏林的新博物館（Neues Museum）參觀奈芙提蒂（Nefertiti）半身像時進行的；來自紐約的藝術家兼作家米瑞娜·阿爾薩尼奧斯（Mirene Arsanios）的一篇短篇故事，回響著1980年代在塞浦路斯短暫生活的童年經歷；以及一篇關於佩斯利卡斯作品的背景論文。
