The Trio Hall
—Su Hui-Yu Solo Exhibition Transforms an Art Museum into a Film Studio, Leading Audiences to Witness the Making of an Absurd Yet Realistic Film
藝術家導讀
這是一個電影／展覽（Cinematic Exhibition or Exhibition Cinema），或其實就是一個影視生產場域。從分鏡手稿、製片會議、甄選、排練、武術指導、排舞、編曲乃至拍攝現場，都將是觀眾得以體驗的過程。最終，一支充滿尖銳議題與地獄梗的政治喜劇將在展覽尾聲誕生。這一切的經歷，其實是我為「補拍」系列下的一個階段性總結——我們何不將沙文主義、殖民、冷戰、流行文化、大眾媒介與眼前迫切危機到困境一次性地予以解決？這個提案，試圖反映在新冷戰與極端政治的當下，這個東亞島國還能說出什麼幽默的敘事，再讓敘事流傳於世，並告訴世界也告訴自己：媽的現在到底是怎樣？
Artist Guide
What you are seeing is a “cinematic exhibition” or “exhibition cinema”, or it can also be thought of as a place of audiovisual production, where members of the audience can experience a process that entails drawing the storyboard, production meeting, audition, rehearsal, martial arts training, choreography, musical arrangement, and even being on site at the filming location. Finally, a political comedy packed with thorny issues and hellish gags will be produced by the end of the exhibition. This entire experience marks an interim conclusion for my “Re-shooting” series, which asks: Why don’t we tackle chauvinism, colonization, the Cold War, popular culture, mass media, and any pressing crises and dilemmas all at once? This proposal reflects the current new Cold War and extreme politics, and under such circumstances, what kind of humorous narratives can this East Asian island nation of ours come up with? The narratives conjured will then be widely circulated and passed down, as we exclaim to the world and also at ourselves: What the hell is going on?
《三廳電影》（2023）是臺灣新媒體藝術家蘇匯宇至今最重要的機構展覽計畫，這個展覽特別為台北當代藝術館的空間所打造。此一多媒體現地製作展覽，同時也是一個受到「三廳電影」這一類型化概念所啓發的電影拍攝計畫。「三廳電影」是1970年代臺灣電影的特殊類型片，多與三種場景有關，即「客廳」、「飯廳」和「舞廳╱咖啡廳」。其反映的是臺灣戒嚴時期（1949-1987）社會中的逃避主義和潛意識裡的反抗欲望，甚至也流行於電視綜藝節目這類北美文化輸入品——就像視覺藝術中的現代主義一樣。
蘇匯宇在過去這些年，打造出其獨特的藝術實踐。他創造懸置於公共和私密領域、擬像和現實、紀實和虛構之間的巨型沉浸式多媒體裝置，巧妙地使用檔案材料，運用「補拍」（Re-shooting）做為美學策略，創作出重塑現實的新作品，重新檢視過往歷史、禁忌、遭受誤解的人物和事件，並且通常是指涉著臺灣的歷史與社會。
「三廳電影」重新帶回藝術家過去這些刺激的元素，將它們融合成五花八門的綜合體，就像蘇匯宇一貫多面向的創作實踐。首先是「三」這個象徵性的元素：「『三』是第一個賦予全部的意義的數字。它是三位一體，包含了起始、過程和結束，是整體的數字。三的力量是普世的，代表了世界的三分性，如天、地和水。它也代表了人的三重性，即身體、靈魂和精神。」巧合的是，數字「三」亦可指涉「紅綠藍」三原色模型，是大眾媒體時代的強烈標記，而三原色模型的記號是三角或三位一體，也具有普世性的重要性，代表身、心、靈的結合。
蘇匯宇運用一系列新創作的攝影影像和裝置，將過去和現在、東西方軍國主義、電視節目和雜誌、「紅綠藍」及「紅黃藍」色彩系統、各類標誌、現代主義式的懷舊元素、藝術典故和援引語錄，從杜象到歐普藝術、從凱吉到白南準等符號，形成一幅諷刺拼貼。
The Trio Hall
The Trio Hall (2023) is the most significant institutional project to date by the Taiwanese-born internationally known artist Su Hui-Yu, specially conceived for the MoCA's spaces. It is a multimedia site-specific exhibition and a film making-project that originates from the "Xan Ting" (三廳, three halls) movie, a specific Taiwanese genre from the late 1970s, characterized by three specific settings: living room, dining room, and disco clubs. This genre was even popular in TV variety shows, a North American cultural importation, like the Modernist tradition in visual art. It reflected the escapism and subconscious desire for rebellion during the Taiwanese martial law era (1949-1987).
Su Hui-Yu has built over the years a distinctive practice. He creates immersive monumental multimedia installations suspended between public and private spheres, simulation and reality, documentary and fiction. He reshapes reality through archival materials, employing "Re-shooting" as an aesthetic strategy to create new works. He reexamines the past, the tabooed, misunderstood figures and events, often referencing Taiwan's history and society.
The Trio Hall merges all these stimuli with a kaleidoscope of references, as always in Su Hui-Yu's multifaceted artistic practice. Firstly, the symbology connected to the number three: “Three is the first number to which the meaning ‘all’ was given. It is The Triad, being the number of the whole as it contains the beginning, a middle and an end. The power of three is universal and is the tripartite nature of the world as heaven, earth, and waters. It is human as body, soul and spirit.”¹ Even God's attributes are three. For coincidence, three are also the RGB color model, which strongly marks the mass media era, whose symbol is also of universal significance: a triad or trinity, representing the unity of body, mind, and spirit.
