腦中的一點小火花，往往就是偉大構想的泉源。為引領創作的火焰蔓延伸展，「火花！」展覽系列為客席策展人及藝術家搭建一個開放及富實驗性的創作平台，向大眾展現新的藝術

發展方向，同時強調包容性和鼓勵不同形式的創意活動，讓天馬行空的想法得以實現，並結

社會之間的關係。郭瑛的「收藏家學會」以收藏家學會名義招收會員，邀請及鼓勵公眾參與

收藏，討論和思考收藏背後的意義，探討藝術品的「價值」所在；黎蘊賢的「像是動物園」

以動物園作為收藏與展覽模式的參照，挑戰「藝術為何」的各種可能性；李俊峰的「『假如』藝術村大字報」則結集藝術家及民間藝術組織的力量，以藝術創作回應消費主義下「生產」

藝術的挑戰和桎梏；方敏兒的「我要食餐好嘅」邀請不同年紀、背景與經驗的藝術文化工作

者與飲食界人士，發掘彼此，創造不分疆界，兼具視覺、觀感及味覺的藝術盛宴；楊陽及策

描繪」則以藝術家書寫個人簡歷，作為藝術家發現自我的另一門徑；丁穎茵在「藝術：一刻

邂逅，N 種態度」裏更帶領藝術家走進社區，走訪不同的社群，了解公眾對藝術的理解與想

像，及梳理藝術與公眾若即若離的關係；以及鄭怡敏（阿金）將在「一百之後」中邀請藝術

家到訪「油街實現」，根據觀察周遭環境、事物的改變或不變，以藝術形式記錄下來，與公

眾分享其中的感悟。

“Sparkle!” exhibition series launched at Oi!********************************************

The “Sparkle!” exhibition series organised by the Art Promotion Office (APO) under the

Leisure and Cultural Services Department(LCSD) brings together seven young curators and designer

partner Karr Yip, who will use the LCSD’s Oi! art space as a springboard and a platform for

planning and staging exhibitions and other events. The exhibition series starts with the “Sparkle! Art

for the Future” exhibition, to be held from tomorrow (September 27) until January 12 next year at Oi!

The exhibition will showcase the guest curators’ ideas on the relationship between contemporary art

and life and explain how they can engage and empower the public with this exhibition project.

Many great ideas begin from a tiny spark of inspiration. The “Sparkle!” exhibition series seeks

to ignite these creative sparks by creating an open and experimental platform for curators and artists

to present to the public a new direction of art development. With the further aim of facilitating and

encouraging different forms of creative activities, the exhibition series hopes to bring unbound

thoughts to life and encourage people to get together as public members of Oi!

Individual exhibitions by the participating curators will run throughout 2014 and 2015. Each of

the curators will use their specific perspective to narrate the relationship between art and the

community. Kwok Ying encourages public participation and discussion by enrolling them as

members of her “Collector Club”, in order to explore the meaning that lies behind the act of

collection and the value of art. Orlean Lai’s “Zoo as Metaphor” uses the zoo as a reference point for

art collection and to question this method of exhibition. She sets out to challenge the different

possibilities by asking “what is art?” Lee Chun-fung’s “Notice Board for ‘WHAT IF’ Artist Village”

looks at the power of artists and art organisations to create art when faced by the challenges and

deadlocks posed by the “manufacture” art for consumerism. In “I Wanna Eat! Yummy! Yummy!”,

Janet Fong invites art practitioners and food and

beverage workers of different ages, backgrounds and experiences, to embrace and explore each

other’s lives and thus create a boundless feast of art filled with images, impressions and flavours.

“Regarding Lightness - The Weight of Lightness: Bio-gravity” by Yeung Yang and her curatorial

team members Susi Law, Wong Chun-hoi, Joao Li and So Wai-lam provides another portal for

artists’ self-discovery through the writing of personal profiles. In Vivian Ting’s “When Art Becomes

Attitude …”, artists will go into the community to meet with different groups of people, so as toexplore the public’s artistic imagination and demystify the seemingly vague and distant connection

between art and the public. Gum Cheng, in his “After One Hundred”, invites artists working in

different media to visit Oi! Here they will be asked to take note of the changes or lack of changes in

their surroundings, and to create art with the aim of sharing their thoughts with the public.

Oi! is open from 10am to 8pm from Tuesdays to Sundays and on public holidays, and from 2pm

to 8pm on Mondays. It closes at 5pm on Christmas Eve and Chinese New Year Eve, and is closed on

the first two days of Chinese New Year. Admission is free.

For more details of the exhibition, please visit the APO website: www.lcsd.gov.hk/apo, or

contact the Community Art Team of the APO at 2512 3007 or 2512 3008.

In his exhibition project “After One Hundred”, Gum Cheng invites participating artists to take notes

and create artworks at specific sites around the Oi! art space. The project seeks to observe “changes”

and produce “insights” through involvement. Photo shows “Painting like an Artist: Plein Air” by one

of the participating artists, wen yau.

In the exhibition project “Collector Club”, Kwok Ying invites the public to join as members of the

Club. Those who join the Club will be offered the chance to gain an understanding of the values of

art and its particular market system through activities.

The "Sparkle! Art for the Future" exhibition opened today (September 26) at Oi!, an art space of the

Leisure and Cultural Services Department. Photo shows the guest curator Gum Cheng (back row,
