前言
“动见——国际动态设计展”是一次全球视野下对动态平面(motion graphic)展开的思辨与研究。我们以“动态性”为核心议题,探讨运动中的视觉何以成为一种思维路径、审美章法和传播语法,影响并改变了当代设计乃至视觉文化的转向与发展。
展览以“动见”为主题,意为用动态性驱动的图形投射多个维度的创意灼见。从全球范围内选取的近60件动态设计力作,囊括了埃里希·布雷希布勒的经典动态海报,登贝工作室的DEMO动态设计节形象,泽维尔·蒙尼的无限循环图形,宋艺焕的趣味化交互动态设计,冈崎智弘的动态图像日记以及立入禁止的观念动态设计等。我们将动态性与空间属性结合在一起建构策展逻辑,结合每件作品的思维方法、美学特征、动态语法的衍变等,用十个贯通的空间动态模块深度挖掘对动态性的多元阐释。分别从动态文字、图形、颜色所隐喻的特定含义与信息;动态视觉的感知与认知拓展;动态传播媒介的迭代与更新;跨界算法和智能驱动的动态设计实验,提炼出“视觉隐喻、感知拓展、媒介迭代、跨域生成”四组视觉叙事。每种叙事都在不同的层面上探索其潜力,让观者在异彩纷呈的空间游走中洞见动态平面的智慧与意义。
与此同时,“动见”亦有“以小见大”之意。动态平面有很大的潜力为静态视觉带来更多东西,并能超越静止图像而探索出更广和更深层的意涵。聚焦到设计教育层面,动态平面虽不构成一个学科,只是一个较小的微缩设计,但它可以链接多元领域和多样学科,编织一张交叉融合的巨大创意网络,以浓缩的信息和综合动态的图文表达,窥见生动的当代视觉生态。动态平面因其动态性和创新性的特征,关联着视觉形式、语言、媒介的设计革新,从而构建新的设计审美价值体系,激发设计教育的改革。此外,动态平面与技术、软件、社交媒体、创意产业紧密互动,有着积极的互塑关系,以小动能点燃视觉文化的重大革新。这也构成了本次策展隐藏的一条暗线。
当下,极富视觉感染力和冲击力的动态平面无处不在,它以短视频、视频日志、动图、界面动效等方式充盈在我们的生活、工作与学习中,不仅改变了以往从静态维度认知世界的方式,更是成为一种当代生活方式。因此,我们更应该关注和了解动态平面。本次展览一方面正是希望可以为公众提供从不同维度走近和认知动态平面的契机;另一方面,基于学院美术馆的策展语境,力图能为动态设计教育提供有益的专业思考和策略探析,皆因动态平面而有所启迪。
