Introduction

Walking China: Stories yet to be told is an exhibition made in collaboration with the Out of Eden Walk, co-curated by writer and explorer Paul Salopek and film and literature scholar June Ke, and featuring over a dozen artists from all over China. Walking China presents stories that roam widely across knowledge systems, reflecting on how walking changes perceptions of time and being and how we might approach encounters with unfamiliar cultures and indigenous knowledges as starting points for dialogue. Featured artists include Salopek’s walking partners, folk artists encountered along the way and artists who meditate on walking.

Walking China uncovers local histories and stories that have been obscured by dominant discourses. The stories collected here are curated with an eye for destabilizing sedentary narratives, highlighting how indigenous cosmologies rethink nature/culture binaries and how categories of history and identity are constantly in flux.

Walking China: Stories yet to be told is organized in partnership with Out of Eden Walk and NYU Shanghai Dean of Arts & Sciences.  

The Out of Eden Walk in China is hosted by Documentary Center, Shanghai Media Group (SMG).

简介

展览“徒步中国：未曾讲述的故事”与“永远的行走”（也称“走出伊甸园”计划）共同合作，由作家、国家地理探险家保罗·萨洛佩科和电影与文学研究者柯芜君共同策划，十几位来自中国各地的艺术家参与。“徒步中国”通过跨越学科、知识体系、认识方式的故事，展现本土文化的多样性，反思行走对时间和存在观念的改变，推动与陌生文化和本土知识的对话。参展艺术家包括保罗行走路上的伙伴、沿途遇到的民间艺术家，以及对行走有深入思考的艺术家。

“徒步中国”意在发掘被主流话语所掩盖的地方叙事，通过本土故事，颠覆一成不变的叙述脉络，并重新思考自然和文化之间的关系，以及历史与身份的流动性。

展览“徒步中国：未曾讲述的故事”与“永远的行走”（也称“走出伊甸园”计划）及上海纽约大学文理学部主任办公室共同合作完成。

“永远的行走”（也称“走出伊甸园”计划）中国段的顺利实现得益于上海广播电视台纪录片中心的大力支持。
