公布品項 『 2018 尋找42個禮物 』 交換計劃
2018.10.12 - 11.13
希望用最原始的部落精神，以物品交換物品的方式，拿心目中認為同等值的品項，來體驗非洲部落交易!
主觀價值是存在於個人心中的，貨幣只是一個易懂的衡量方式。
藉由交換的結果來反應出每個人價值認定的趣味差異。
歡迎您來一起參與!!! 體驗非洲部落交易!
2018將尋找計劃繼續延續下去.....
靈感主要來自於小時候彈珠交換貼紙的單純樂趣，希望透過交換來看看不同的物品價值觀。過程中會發現 "物" "物" 交換有趣的是，它不是一板一眼的價格概念。
經濟學家亞當•斯密(Adam Smith, 1723-1790) 曾指出，"在沒有貨幣之前，人們會利用七隻雞交換一頭羊，或者用一袋穀物交換一雙涼鞋。" 其實交換得不僅是物品，還有無形附加的認同、尊重及情感。
希望有更多部落藝術作品尋找到它的主人，為生活帶來一些新的趣味
「交換」並非一定要價格等值，而是強調了「心理價值」的重要性
"2018"尋找42個禮物"成果特展 - 展示的方式以一對對相呼應，將尋找到的作品與被尋找的部落藝術共同陳列，並呈現出另一種視覺的可能性與對話。
尋找計劃，對我們來說交換其實是尋找彼此喜歡的東西.
因為喜歡才會有心中的價值產生 . 如果沒喜歡就算是再昂貴的也僅存於擁有者本身 ...。
回顧2017尋找計畫...
去年這次共交換了29個作品，很高興大家喜歡這個特別企劃，彼此都獲得"收集感"的滿足 。
成果展方面希望呈現不同的視覺感受。 從這次的尋找過程中，參與者透過不同的形式作品交換，例如:不同的媒材作品包含繪畫、雕塑、攝影或是鑄鐵與皮革組合的單椅....等.，可以發現有趣的是交換本身的精神並非用貨幣價值來衡量，而是可以用不同的形式，感受那無形的內在價值所附加的認同、尊重及情感，回到純樸的物物交換。
小巴廊會展出42件部落藝術作品作為尋找的品項,並公布於小巴廊臉書。

『尋找42個禮物 計 劃 』特展
11/17(六) - 11/ 24(六)
We hope to use the most primal tribal spirit, exchanging items for items of perceived equal value, to experience African tribal trading! Subjective value resides in the individual’s heart, with money being just an easily understandable measure. The outcome of the exchange reflects the fun differences in how each person perceives value.
We invite you to join us in experiencing African tribal trading!
The 2018 Exchange Program will continue the quest for new discoveries... The inspiration mainly comes from the simple joy of exchanging marbles and stickers as a child. Through the exchange process, we aim to explore different value perceptions of objects. What's interesting about "object-to-object" exchange is that it’s not defined by fixed price concepts. As economist Adam Smith (1723-1790) once pointed out, "Before there was money, people would exchange seven chickens for a sheep or a bag of grain for a pair of sandals." In fact, what is exchanged isn’t just physical items, but also intangible things like recognition, respect, and emotion.
We hope that more tribal artworks will find their rightful owners and bring new joy into life. The exchange process doesn't need to equate price, but emphasizes the importance of "psychological value."
"2018 - Searching for 42 Gifts" Special Exhibition - The exhibition will display exchanged works in pairs, presenting tribal art alongside the exchanged items. This will offer a new visual dialogue and perspective.
For us, exchange is about finding things we truly like. When you like something, that's when value is created in your heart. If you don’t like it, even if it's expensive, it remains valuable only to its owner.
A Look Back at the 2017 Exchange Program...
Last year, we successfully exchanged 29 works. We are pleased that everyone liked this special project, and each participant experienced the satisfaction of "collecting." The exhibition also presented different visual experiences. Through the exchange process this year, participants engaged in exchanging works in various forms, such as paintings, sculptures, photography, or cast-iron and leather chairs. What’s interesting is that the spirit of exchange itself isn’t measured by monetary value, but through various forms, allowing us to feel the intangible values of recognition, respect, and emotion that are attached to it, returning to the simple essence of object-to-object exchange.
The 44GALLERY will display 42 tribal artworks as exchange items, and these will be announced on the 44GALLERY Facebook page.
