History of the World / Acid Brass, 1997 - 2004
I’ve been asked to talk about The History of the World which is the big wall drawing in front of you. There’s a quote by Lenin which is "everything is connected to everything else" and that could almost be the title of this work cos it’s how my brain works in a lot of ways how I try to connect things up, and it’s how I work as an artist in that respect.I did a work called Acid Brass which was when I got a brass band to play Acid House music. And this diagram explains it in the way that I thought that brass bands and Acid House music actually have a lot in common even though on the face of it they have nothing in common whatsoever. They’re both these forms of folk and popular music, they’re both very strong, had a very strong following in the north of England, or still do. And also they have a connection in the middle with trade unions, with the media hysteria that surrounded Acid House music and drug culture, and also with the miners’ strike. So they meet in the middle really with civil unrest as you can see.I have to say that it was one of the most pleasant experiences as an artist to work with a brass band, to hang out with those guys and to go to the concerts with them which were just great social occasions. And that’s something that I try to bring out in my work: a sense of enjoyment of what I do.


大紀元1月15日報導】〈中央社記者林鼎堯台北特稿)慣以多重媒材來呈現主題的英國藝術家傑瑞米˙戴勒(Jeremy Deller),去年冬天成為英國當代藝術界最大獎泰納獎(TurnerPrize )眾望所歸的二00四年得主。戴勒同時是台北雙年展「在乎現實嗎?」的參展藝術家,代表作之一「歐格里夫抗爭事件」現正在台北市立美術館展出,展期至一月二十三日。

泰納獎的評選向來以具爭議性、不按牌理出牌聞名,因此會選出受到藝評、大眾、賭盤、甚至是同儕藝術家一致看好的戴勒,確實是不常見的情形,英國《衛報》甚至以「空前(unprecedentedly)」來形容戴勒的獲獎。

戴勒的得獎作品是以錄像為主的裝置藝術「記憶的桶」,影像內容是他在德州的旅行紀錄。戴勒當時的行程包括參觀美國總統布希常去的咖啡店、觀察布希家鄉人民的日常生活、以及訪問一名大衛教派鎮壓事件後的倖存者,影片最後則是以一大群蝙蝠由洞穴中飛出,佈滿黃昏時分的天空作結。

由於泰勒獎決選時正逢美國總統大選,戴勒特別強調,「記憶的桶」並非反布希的作品。但先前英國《第四頻道》為戴勒拍攝個人簡介時,他也以一番話為觀者預留想像空間:「最好是不要解釋每件事。我寧願有一些謎。」
現年三十八歲、畢業於倫敦大學科陶德藝術中心藝術史研究所的戴勒坦承,自己缺乏傳統藝術才能,「不會繪畫和雕塑」。他習慣以親身參與的方式去創作,紀錄自己與他人合作的過程,最後以影片、訪談文稿、檔案和官方文件一類的形式發表,意在以多重面向呈現單一事件。

戴勒經常以不同的身份創作,曾在各式各樣的藝術專案擔任策劃、製作人和導演。他出身倫敦,並以倫敦為創作基地,卻喜歡以邊緣題材、草根文化、或遺落的歷史片段為創作主題,論者認為他不帶有倫敦的時髦味,但易為大眾接受。

戴勒於二00一年發表的「歐格里夫抗爭事件」,可能是最能代表他創作精神的作品。他為此作品籌備三年的時間,找來數百位礦工和警察,重演一九八四年全國礦工工會罷工中的暴力衝突事件。事後他將重演的紀錄影片、相關訪談、剪報、歷史文件和照片一併展出,刺激觀者由多個不同角度思考。

持正面意見的藝評認為,戴勒一貫以溫和且富智慧的手段碰觸政治議題,非教條式的作品能引人思考;但也有少數人指出,戴勒的作法「噁心而矯情」。
