作品介绍

百科百度上，“社会青年”的定义是社会的不良青年和闲散人员。社会青年原为和学生相对的概念，用来指校园外青年。”最早“社会青年”一词来源于上世纪70 年代上山下乡后回到城里没有工作，游离在社会之外的知青群体，它成为中国80 年代这个富有特色的群体的专有指称。后来“社会青年”大多是在社会主流体系之外的待业青年、闲散人员、流动人口、各种不定性人群。“社会青年”是WAZA 小组长期关注的一个社会概念。武汉长久以来都是充斥流动人口的城市。从2008 年的《流浪艺人》开始，WAZA 就表达了对这座城市边缘化群体的关注。WAZA 花了一年时间认识、了解流浪艺人这一群体后，收集这些艺人的音乐制作了作品。2010 年，WAZA 小组做了《社会青年》项目，

项目坐落于城市的“城中村”里一个破旧的、几乎被废弃的公寓楼里，这里聚居了大量作为租户的流动人口。WAZA 小组与这些居民合作，让房东提供改造空间的建议和指导，租客提供工具和材料来完成作品。这个项目包括了声音装置，很多材料也是现场收集。本次文献展，小组拟在美术馆的场地重新阐释《社会青年》这个项目，作品呈现为声音装置，由WAZA 小组2008 年至今于各地拆迁现场收集的物品以及采集并后期加工的声音作为材料，呈现一个类似带着情绪、感性的、有着隐秘外史的出租房的空间。

In Baidu Wikipedia, “rustic youth” is defined as young villains and idle people in society. The social youth, originally referred to the young people outside the campus, compared with the students. The earliest “rustic youth” originates from the educated youth group who returned to the city, unemployed after they had gone and worked in the countryside and mountainous areas in the 1970s. This phrase became an exclusive reference to this characteristic group of China in the 1980s. Later, “rustic youth” mostly refer to young people waiting for job assignments, idlers, shifting population, and all kinds of wayward groups. “Rustic youth” has been a social concept that WAZA team is concerned with for a long time. Wuhan has been a city full of shifting people for a long time. Since the Floating Chinese Musicians in 2008, WAZA has expressed its concern over the marginalized groups of this city. WAZA spent one year knowing and understanding this group before making production through collecting the works of these musicians. In 2010, the WAZA team produced the project of Social Youth, which is located in a shabby and almost abandoned apartment building in the “urban village” where a lot of shifting people as tenants gather. WAZA team cooperated with these residents, letting the landlord provide suggestions and guidance for space modification, and tenants provide the tools and materials to finish the work. This project includes sound installations, and many materials are collected on site. In this literature exhibition, the team plans to re-interpret the project at the site of the art museum. The work is shown as sound installation. The substances collected from different demolition sites and sounds collected and processed by WAZA team since 2008, show a space of rental housing that is emotional, sensitive, and with informal hidden history.
