Nini Sum(中国) 和 Gregor Koerting(德国)
2010-2020年的上海,黄金时期的光芒曾照进过人们的生活,记忆中那是一段充满着希望和融合的时期。受到这种光芒滋养的本土精神和来自世界各地的文化交织共生,诞生出各种或绚丽或怪奇的艺术表达之花,在无数俱乐部、酒吧、艺术空间和工作室的共同灌溉下,上海成为了一座极为奇幻美妙又独特的地下花园。
也是在这段时间里,爱豆笔此双人组创作出百余幅手工丝网版画作品:从音乐演出和独立电影节海报到艺术节和诗歌会视觉,从描绘赛博都市的真正的大城市系列到生长于中国本土文化的生肖和阴阳系列...

爱豆笔此的Nini Sum和Gregor Koerting用每一次的对版、调色和亲手印制,来描绘他们在这样一个独一无二的时代和城市生活的感受。中国文化的悠远流长和西方赛博朋克的未来幻想被揉杂进这无法复刻的上海印象之中,曾经的想象不经意间便沉淀成了时代记忆。
我们谨以爱豆笔此这十二年间的作品回顾展,诚挚邀请你一同重温这黄金时期的自由表达和跨文化的珍贵友谊。
Memories of those who lived in Shanghai during the decade between 2010 and 2020 might have been bathed in golden light. The era gave rise to a spirit of hope and sense of togetherness among the community of locals and emigrants from around the world. Providing the soil for a flamboyant, colorful garden of artistic expression growing out of thousands of little clubs, bars, galleries, and pop-up spaces throughout the city.
The imagery from hundreds of hand-printed posters and art prints during these years by Chinese/German artist duo IdleBeats aimed to manifest the feeling of a specific time in Shanghai. Melting Chinese cultural heritage with western cyberpunk fiction brought alive by the impression of the city as a whole.
We welcome you to join us at IdleBeats retrospective exhibition, together, to walk through a 12-year journey of free creation and intercultural friendship.
