在技术狂潮中重构人文性与现实性 ———2024中国当代艺术展览综述(北京、上海地区为主)

Reconstructing Humanism and Reality amid the Technological Tide:An Overview of 2024 Chinese Contemporary Art Exhibitions (With a Focus on Beijing and Shanghai)

本文以2024年北京、上海等地区的中国当代艺术展览为研究对象,探讨在技术加速与全球化交织的背景下,艺术如何回归并重构其人文性与现实性。面对AI与数字技术对艺术本体的持续冲击,艺术家普遍致力于反思人性、物性、生态及历史等根本议题,呈现出技术批判与人文回归并重的态势。展览功能已超越传统展陈模式,逐渐拓展为融合学术研究、理论探讨与档案呈现的复合型场域,主题广泛涵盖技术反思、生态关切、全球化及媒介实验等多个方向。然而,当前策展实践在跨学科融合、理论深度介入与社会现实关怀之间,仍存在阐释壁垒与批判性不足等问题。在商业资本、技术依赖与话语限制等多重压力下,中国当代艺术展览能否切实守护人文精神并实现有效社会介入,仍是一个有待回应的重要命题。

This paper examines contemporary art exhibitions in Beijing, Shanghai, and other regions of China in 2024, exploring how art returns to and reconstructs its humanism and reality against the backdrop of technological acceleration and globalization. In response to the ongoing impact of AI and digital technology on the ontology of art, artists have increasingly engaged in reflections on fundamental issues such as humanity, materiality, ecology, and history, demonstrating a dual emphasis on techno-criticism and humanistic return. The function of exhibitions has expanded beyond traditional display models, evolving into a composite field that integrate academic research, theoretical exploration, and literature archiving. Themes cover a wide range of directions, including technological reflection, ecological concerns, globalization, and experiments in artistic media. However, there are still issues with interpretive barriers and insufficient critical thinking in current curatorial practices between interdisciplinary integration, deep theoretical involvement, and social reality care. Under multiple pressures from commercial capital, technological dependency, and discursive constraints, whether Chinese contemporary art exhibitions can effectively preserve humanistic spirit and achieve meaningful social intervention remains an open and crucial question.
