展覽主題：Déjà vu | 生‧活‧非遺

日期：夏季會期－7月19日至8月25日⁠⠀
地點：日本香川縣小豆島福田港 福武之家⁠

香港藝術中心再度參與當代藝術盛事「#瀨戶內國際藝術祭2019」之「FUKUTAKE HOUSE亞洲藝術平台」。三年一度，瀨戶內國際藝術祭今年盛大回歸！香港藝術中心將會再次通過多界別當代藝術合作，與國際藝術家及訪客在日本小豆島進行跨文化對話，探索身分認同、全球化等議題。

瀨戶內國際藝術節以「海洋復興」為主題，力爭通過活動，使瀨戶內諸島重現昔日自然與人類交相輝映的盛景，讓瀨戶內海成為全球所有地區的「希望之海」。瀨戶內海自古以來就是重要的交通大動脈。往來的船隻在瀨戶內海的各島嶼停泊補給，並不斷為其帶來新的文化與生活方式。它們與各島固有的文化融合後形成獨特的傳統習俗，這些習俗與美麗的風景一同留存至今。在追求全球化、效率化、統一化的當下，各島人口減少、老齡化加劇、地區活力下降，島嶼的特性日漸流失。通過舉辦瀨戶內國際藝術節，使瀨戶內海諸島重新恢復昔日自然與人類交相輝映的盛況，讓瀨戶內海成為全球所有地區的「希望之海」。今年再次舉行的「瀨戶內國際藝術祭」絕對是當代藝術的盛事。

今次的合作以「Déjà Vu 生·活·非遺」為題，進行有關非物質文化遺產（簡稱「非遺」）的文化對話。中心將展示香港舞台服裝設計師譚嘉儀以中式傳統服飾及小豆島特色為靈感的舞台裝置藝術作品；而香港舞蹈家曹德寶及其TS Crew團隊則將帶來糅合特技、功夫與舞蹈的現地製作表演藝術作品；香港藝術學院畢業生列咏虹及鍾肇峰將協助裝置與演出的製作，同時將『賽馬會「傳•創」非遺教學計劃』所得之經驗運用於是次交流。所有參與藝術家亦將透過駐地計畫與工作坊，與福田區當地居民進行交流與合作。今次展示的目的在於重新發現「非遺」作為人類智慧的結晶，在連結過去、建立身分認同、生活解難、建構美學，以及感知大自然等方面無可取締的獨特地位；同時也希望通過「非遺」，啟發更多創意。

#SetouchiTriennale2019 Fukutake House Asia Art Platform
Déjà Vu | the Living Heritage

Date: Summer—19 July-25 Aug, 2019⁠⠀
Venue: FUKUTAKE HOUSE, Fukuda, Shodoshima, Kagawa, JAPAN⁠⠀

HKAC participates in Setouchi Triennale for the third time to conduct cross-cultural dialogues with international artists and visitors, and explore issues such as identity and globalization, by means of multidisciplinary collaborations in contemporary arts, on the island of Shodoshima.

The Setouchi Triennale takes place in the picturesque setting of the Seto Inland Sea. Its theme is the Restoration of the Sea, and it aims to revitalize the island communities that once thrived in this beautiful natural environment and to transform the region into a Sea of Hope. The Seto Inland Sea has been a vital transportation route since ancient times. Ships plying its waters stopped at different islands where their crew passed along the latest cultural and lifestyle trends. The distinctive local cultures that emerged through such interactions can still be found today.

In this edition, the showcase takes the title Déjà Vu | the Living Heritage, with special focus on the exchange of discourse on “intangible cultural heritage” (ICH); in which HKAC’s presentation will feature one stage-set Chinese traditional costume installation artwork by the renowned Hong Kong costume designer, Ms. Mandy Tam, assisted by two alumni of Hong Kong Art School (HKAS), Ms. Lit Wing-hung and Mr. Chung Siu-fung, plus the acrobatic-kungfu performing art piece by Hong Kong choreographer, Mr. Hugh Cho and the TS Crew. All participating artists also exchange their artistic ideas with the local residents of Fukuta area through residency programmes and workshops. The project is aimed at recollecting ICH as the crystallisation of valuable human experience that connects with the past, the identity, and more importantly, the accumulative wisdom in problem-solving, aestheticism and sensibility about the nature, in order to shed new insights for future creativity and innovations.
