Abstract

ABSTRACT Museums are increasingly responsible for the care of highly complex artworks that are often co-produced, co-curated and co-conserved. The preservation of many artworks no longer hinges solely on the endurance of original materials, and as such, conservators are compelled to embrace the active life of these works. This paper studies Thomas Hirschhorn’s ongoing involvement with his work Intensif-Station (2010) over time and assesses the collaborations between artist and museum staff through the eyes of the conservator. By investigating the biography of this immersive artwork composed of rapidly degrading materials meant not to decay and perish but to persist, tangible material questions prompted conservators to probe “the artist’s intent.” Could the much-problematized notion be reframed as an open-ended process?

重构“艺术家意图”的概念:对托马斯·赫施霍恩(Thomas Hirschhorn)的“强化站”的关怀研究(2010)

博物馆越来越多地承担起高度复杂的艺术品的保护责任，这些艺术品通常是共同制作、共同策展和共同保护的。许多艺术品的保存不再仅仅取决于原始材料的耐久性，因此，保护人员被迫接受这些作品的积极生命。本文研究了Thomas Hirschhorn在他的作品《intensity - station》(2010)中的持续参与，并通过管理员的视角评估了艺术家和博物馆工作人员之间的合作。通过调查这个沉浸式艺术品的传记，这些作品由快速降解的材料组成，这些材料不是为了腐烂和消亡，而是为了持续存在，有形的材料问题促使保护人员探索“艺术家的意图”。这个有很多问题的概念能否被重新定义为一个开放式的过程?
