燕岭青年艺术家驻地计划

一、背景 Background

燕岭园，是燕岭文化传播旗下位于东莞的旧建筑活化项目。项目所在地经历了三十多年的历史变迁，从前身的“自学成才大学”，到燕岭宾馆旧址，它就像一个故事的亲历者，过去在不同的时期，承载了不同的历史使命。直至现在的燕岭园，通过具有社会价值的发展计划，历久弥新打造成一个保留原有独特的历史痕迹、增添多种功能的创新地标。在艺术领域，燕岭园致力于为国内外新生代艺术家提供一个展示才华、分享理念、互动交流的多元化平台，也为公众提供一个结合历史传统和艺术文化创意的体验及休闲园地。

Yan Garden is a revitalization project in Dongguan under Yan Concept. The location of the project has undergone for more than 30 years of historical changes, from the “self-taught university” to the former site of “Yanling Guesthouse”. It is like a witness to a story to carry historical missions in different periods.

Up to now, Yan Garden has been reformed to a new landmark with original features and brand-new functions through its socially valuable development plan. In the field of art, Yan Garden is committed to providing a new platform for new generation artists at home and abroad to showcase their talents, share ideas and interact with each other. We are also intent to provide the public with a place of historical traditions as well as artistic and cultural creativity.

燕岭文化传播希望通过「燕岭青年艺术家驻地计划」招募国内外有潜力的年轻艺术家们共同参与，通过项目提供的支持和援助，让年轻艺术家拥有一个艺术创造、创新和实践的平台。2019年度驻地参与者将以东莞为基地和研究对象，通过对驻地周边小区和地区的考察、研究以及走访周边艺术机构、艺术交流等活动，帮助驻地参与者了解当地文化艺术氛围，深入其中并结合当下特定环境和语境的同时，融入或启发自身的艺术创作和研究，亦通过与其他艺术家的分享和交流了解世界艺术前沿信息，激发他们的创作灵感、思路，助于他们进行独立的艺术创作和研究，在艺术舞台上获得展示个人才华的机会。

Yan Concept aims to recruit young artists from home and abroad through Young Yan Artists Residence Program. By supporting and providing assistance in this project, young artists are given a platform for artistic creation, innovation and practice. In 2019, the participants will take Dongguan as the base and research object for understanding the local culture and art atmosphere in order to integrate their art piece with local culture through the study and research of the surrounding communities and regions, visiting the surrounding art institutions and art exchanges. At the same time, we hope that the Young Yan Artists Residence Program can be the stepping stone for young artists to learn about world art frontier information through sharing and exchange with other artists, to inspire their creativity and to help them to carry out independent artistic creation and research. Most importantly, a valuable chance to show their talents in the international art stage.
