The First “CAFAM• Future” Exhibition–Sub-Phenomena: Report on the State of Chinese Young Art aims at encouraging young artists exploration into artistic language and new ideas. By using field investigation, the exhibition analyzes and studies contemporary and future Chinese artistic tendencies. It places emphasis on investigating and presenting the new generation artists’ unique and special “artistic expressions” in a contemporary global context, cultural framework and meaningful production .At its opening ceremony, Pan Gongkai, President of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, emphasized that it is an academic biennale closely related to the education philosophy and personnel training of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, which embodies its Nomination Committee as well as its academic activities. Based on in-depth research, it provides a professional estimate of the future art trends in China, setting an academic example of visual art studies.Xu Bing, a renowned artist and Vice President of the Central Academy of Fine Arts emphatically pointed out the First “CAFAM• Future” Exhibition is a unique exhibition as it assembles young artists who are different from former generations of artists in China or foreign artists. They have undergone a special epoch which inspires their creativity. The curatorial process, for him, is a researching process which comprehends the creations, factors, phenomena of young art. Like researchers, curators have striven for multiplicity and inclusiveness. Although the exhibited artists need further improvement of their own values and their works are not perfect, we still find specific cultural nutrition and the autonomy of culture in their works.As an honorable representative of the Nomination Committee for the first “CAFAM• Future” Exhibition, Richard Vine, an active critic from Art in America pays close attention to Chinese contemporary art, expressed his appreciation for being invited to participate in it. He believes that it’s a fantastic time to promote young art as Chinese athletes do at the London Olympic Games. When talking about some optimistic views on the art market in China held by some art reviewers in an interview with CAFA ART INFO, Richard Vine held that it depends on the effect of two factors: one is that art agents in the west come to understand Chinese contemporary art; the other is potential appreciation in the value of works.Jiao Meng, the youngest artist selected to attend this exhibition has expressed her gratitude for this magic chance of being nominated for this serious exhibition. On behalf of all the “subjects investigated”, she thought this exhibition would objectively present their existential circumstances and modes of behavior. She would like to share and communicate in this meaningful event.Academic Activities of “Sub-Phenomena: Report on the State of Chinese Young Art”I Lectures about” Subculture”“Subculture” is a kind of affiliated culture which tries to establish its acceptance by challenging mainstream culture through stylized and offbeat symbols. The youth subculture study is a new term that has emerged with the formation of a modern society, which finally captured a relatively stable audience and established theoretic construction in the process of urbanization, industrialization and the establishing of a consumer society. It is characterized by resistance, marginalization and stylization. Based on these characteristics, we combined the current ecological situation of youth art and summarized 6 visual rhetorics: “Vine Growth, We-media, Forge Art, Otaku Space, Shallow Life and the Unknown,” through which we are going to launch the exhibition under the title of “Sub-Phenomena: Report on the State of Chinese Young Art”.Thus we invited scholars from the domestic cultural field to carry out studies on phenomena and analyses on the current situation in terms of the characteristics, style, function and future development of Chinese contemporary youth subculture [the discussion will be around the 6 phenomena of the exhibition].
