What is publicness? This is a crucial question for contemporary art. For decades, public art has been equated to urban sculptures. But publicness should not be defined by place; it needs to be understood as ways in which open and critical discussions can be fostered. In this talk, Zheng Bo will discuss Paola Pivi's artwork “Share, but it’s not fair”, specifically commissioned for this exhibition, and Chinese artist Xiong Wenyun's work Moving Rainbow (1998-2001), showing how these two artists connected colors and environmental issues in their pursuit of publicness.

什么是公共性?这个问题对当代艺术至关重要。长久以来,公共艺术被理解为城市雕塑,但公共性与空间的联系并非它的本质,能够引发人们对共同关心的议题进行开放的讨论才是公共性的核心。讲者将以波拉•彼薇为此次展览创作的作品《分享,但不公平》和中国艺术家熊文韵的作品《流动彩虹》为例,讨论两位艺术家如何将色彩与环境议题相连,展现她们的公共性诉求。
