Shanghai Is My Playground

@ hk disneyland

@He Yan's Store, 141-16 Chang Le Road

只怪当年没学好立裁！

某人去到hku开始住鸽子笼，还要在taobao上大肆搜刮递到我处再帮伊背到HK。

而我呢就被猪油蒙了心，心心念念要去SDA Bocconi读MA，第2选择是unibo。

而前者居然还要IELTS，这点学费还不如去UK；后者大牌太多头上光环太甚，册那还要考意文估计会死得很惨。

对这个脏乱差国家越来越没好感，某人云去这种经济衰退物价乱涨日渐没落的国家读business作西啊

 

于是很LOW~

　　Introduction：
　　We are curious about western cities and likewise foreigners are curious about Asian cities. Curiosity is the starting point of all the observations, comprehensions and communications .
　　David Verbeek, the director of the film "City of Trance" is going to have his first photography expo in China for his new project about a new urban asia.
　　David will be present at the opening night and also will screen some his short films that he has made over the past ten years as a filmmaker working in New York, Amsterdam and Shanghai. He will show us his great 'curiosities' about our cities, architectures, landscape structures and personal lives. And we will join in this party to meet David with our curiosities to see his understanding about our city and life.
　　
　　Artist：
　　David Verbeek was born in Amsterdam in 1980 and went to New York in 1999. 2001, he got the bachelor degree of Film, Photography and Philosophy in New School University, New York. From 2001 to 2005 he studied at the Dutch Film and Television Academy (NFTA). During his time studying film directing at the NFTA he made his first feature length film “Beat” which was selected for several film festivals around the world and got distributed in theaters in the Netherlands. Before graduating he made an number of important short film works, "Yu-Lan", "November Always" and "Suicideholiday". Right after graduating in 2005, David moved to Shanghai with the dream to making a film about the fast changing realities in China. His second full length feature film "Shanghai Trance” / “City of Trance" was finished in 2008 and selected in competition for the International Film Festival Rotterdam, Chicago and Hong Kong and got released in the Netherlands in the same year. It will be released in China this October.
　　
　　Throughout the last several the years, David Verbeek worked on his new photography project "Colors of the New Land" which consists of 21 photos about the layers, colours and structures of the manmade landscapes of Shanghai, Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Beijing, Taipei and Tokyo.

Statement by the artist:

Colors of the New Land is meant to give us a sense of connection between different sights in urban south east Asia. The three pictures we are confronted with in every work of the series are talking to one another through a language of color and shape, showing esthetic connections within man-made landscapes. 

The series was created out of years of constant travel and the notion that modern life is an increasingly international enterprise. Many of us are living their lives in more than one place, sometimes in many different countries, thus gathering a rich variety of (visual) impressions, at any rate much more diverse than people of past generations have been experiencing. Images and impressions of places are important to the mind. Nowadays, we are spending most of our time in dense urban landscapes and are traveling so fast and frequently that  impressions from different origins get mixed in our memories and constitute a new mental landscape. How does the mind select and link these impressions and how do these constitute our own personal urban universe? 
To me personally, images of the cities which I have visited during the last few years are increasingly seeming to belong together. As if my life takes place in one huge global metropolis. That is not at all an alienating or even frightening thought to me. On the contrary, at times I experience the sensation of wanting to completely submerge myself within the vast ocean of buildings. Capturing the layered reality of modern cities with always the same 35 mm lens, "Colors of the New Land" simply started to take shape. It was an unplanned process, originating from my personal, visual addiction for the urban landscapes of the new Asia.
