简介
《51摊》(51 Tan)是一个持续性的记录项目。作者作为第十一届上海双年展(2016-17)51人项目的参与者之一,以绘画速写勾勒出她以顾客或路人的视角体察这些散落在当时上海特定位置的摊贩,记录他们的摆设细节、构造逻辑、材质用料、空间策略和街头对话——精妙而富有人情。及至出版,书中的很多摊贩已不得再见。摊贩把自己的生意建立在流动中人和人的短暂信任之上,却成为城市治理下手最轻易、效果最明显的解决对象。
51 Tan (namely 51 Stalls, or 51 Street Vendors) is an ongoing documentation project. The author’s drawings and sketches outline her observation of these stalls, scattered in specific locations in Shanghai at the time, from the perspective of a customer or a passer-by, recording the details of their set-up, rationale of the design, the materials used, spatial strategies and even street conversations – both subtle and human. By the time of publication, many of the stallholders in the book had already disappeared. The vendors, who built their businesses on the fleeting trust of people on the move, have become the easiest and most effective targets for urban governance to tackle.
2021年,在第一版售罄并筹划再版时,51人邀请作者增补了疫情后上海街头的四个摊和2016年未及收录的两则“拾遗”,总共合成45篇,并请在沪生活多年的51人之友、印度人安明实(Animesh Narain)对画中文字进行了英语重译,旨在将此地街道的故事以另一种语言找到更多的读者——发生和消失在上海街道的这些场景和人物,在当下的南方世界具有广泛的意义。
In 2021, when the first edition sold out and a reprint was planned, 51 Personae invited Feile to add four more stalls from the streets of Shanghai after the Covid-19 pandemic and two “leftovers” that had not been included in 2016. Animesh Narain, a friend of 51 Personae who had been living in Shanghai for some years, was invited to retranslate the text in English, with the aim of bringing the stories of the streets here to a wider audience in another language – we believe that this 51 Tan (2021 Edition) scenes and people that happened and disappeared on the streets of Shanghai have a widely concerned significance in the Global South today.
