798站

798，一座五十年代由東德援建的老工廠。隨著中國的改革開放和現代化進程，大批工人下崗，798的廠房在世紀末的荒草殘陽中默默無聞……
新世紀初，798由於當代藝術的進入而變成了一個舉世矚目又頗具爭議的藝術園區。政府介入、企業管理、時尚關注、遊人如織，亂花漸欲迷人眼。
究竟是哪些人完成了798從一個工廠編號到一個藝術區的概念轉換呢？隨著798的興衰榮辱，這些人物的命運發生了怎樣的變化？在藝術表達、政治約束、商業誘惑和野蠻管理的夾縫中，當代藝術精神是否還依然存在？
798上演著今日中國文化的“清明上河圖”。
中國當代藝術經過圓明園、經過東村、經過宋莊，直至798，還會有下一站嗎？

798 is a factory that the East German assistant to construct in the 1950s.
A large number of workers were laid off because of China’s reform and opening up and modernization. At the same time, 798 plants were like the weeds in the sunset, sleeping in the silence.
Just at the beginning of the new century, 798 has become a remarkable but controversial art park since the entry of Contemporary Art. Government involvement, business management, fashion focus and tourists everywhere, like the colorful flower which covered our eyes and make us cannot see things clearly.
Who changed 798 from a factory into an art district? With the rise and fall, glorious and shame of 798, what changes have taken place of those people? In the cracks between art expression, political constraints, commercial temptations and disorder management, is the spirit of contemporary art still there?
798 is a miniature of Chinese culture today like the ancient painting “Along the River During the Qing Ming Festival”.
Will there be another stop after the bus of Chinese contemporary art passed the Summer Palace, Dongcun, Songzhuang and 798?
