\u201cA Tie to All the Earth,\u201d the inaugural show of teagan:, brings together works of 12 international artists represented by Perrotin (Shanghai), including Jean-Marie Appriou, Iv\u00e1n Argote, Daniel Arsham, Bernard Frize, Laurent Grasso, Thilo Heinzmann, Gregor Hildebrandt, Bharti Kher, Klara Kristalova, Lee Bae, Matthew Ronay and Pieter Vermeersch. In order to echo the spatial coordinates and ecological orientation of teagan:, the concept of \u201ca biological tie\u201d is deliberately articulated as the curatorial gesture to draw together the various threads in the artists\u2019 different practices. Metaphorically speaking, how Chaobai River, the mother water of the northeastern suburbs of Beijing, which surrounds teagen: and its neighbouring complex, connects and integrates the new site. At the same time, it also explores how urban areas self-cultivate and stay in intimate contact with nature..<\/p>\n
\u201cA Tie to All the Earth\u201d hereby attempts to retrace the embodied shape of the invisible \u201ctie\u201d from two nuanced approaches in continuity \u2013 the vertical pattern of \u201croot\u201d and the transversal trajectory of \u201croute\u201d, thus creating a progressive sense of place and an increased feeling of belonging. The juxtaposition of Hildebrandt\u2019s homage to the forest in landscape painting or columnar sculpture, and Heinzmann\u2019s sublime abstraction of blood-rushing movements gives the first impression in the ground floor. Building on this, the upstairs space provides a parallel vision of the desired pastoral lifestyle and the actual heterotopic illusion. The chance of shuttling back and forth between the two may again inspire us with fresh societal thinking and humanistic care.<\/p>\n
