活成行为艺术家就是去做那个所有人动作一致的时候，提前动员自己身上的潜能，创造出自己的行动，让集体动作变形的人。经过研究，我们发现行为艺术家身上保留了当代艺术能量最完整的基因。他们把生活和创作当成真事在发生。这就是行为艺术家们对艺术、生活的自我规定。让这个系统往往不知道该拿他们怎么办？无法审判他们，也不能释放他们。我们的身体是潜意识、即兴的最后底牌，也是感性现场的最前线。身体是我们的超验图示与生物编码的战场。他总是一边具身化一边编码化。

当代，什么样的行为艺术能对冲我们大数据生活里的失重和荒唐，这些行为艺术家在全球当代的地图上的坐标在哪里，什么是今天2023年的当代艺术真的想要展示的行为艺术。

我们将由此行为艺术文献展为由，展示这些行为艺术家的创作文献、背景和思考。届时哲学家陆兴华将推出《灵的苦乐》行为艺术文献读本。

To live as a performance artist is to be the one who, when everyone acts in uniform, mobilizes their potential ahead of others, creates their own actions, and deforms the collective action. Based on our research, we conclude that perfor- mance artists retain the most complete gene of contemporary art energy. They treat their life and practice as real happenings. This is their self-imposed regulation on art and life, which oten leaves the system at a loss as to how respond – it can neither judge nor release them. Our body is the last resort of subconsciousness and improvisation, as well as the forefront of the sensibility scene. It is the battleground for our transcendental schemas and biological codings, constantly being embodied while being codiied.

At the present day, what sort of performance art can offset the weightlessness and absurdity of our big-data life? What are the coordinates of these performance artists on the global contemporary map? What is the performance that contemporary art in 2023 truly desires to present?

We will use this performance art documental exhibition as an opportunity to display the creative literature, background, and thinking of performance artists. Concurrent with the exhibition opening, philosopher Lu Xinghua will publish “The Bitterness and Joy of the Spirit”, a comprehensive literature review of contemporary performance art practices and theories.
