URBAN CARPET 8x5 · 都市地毯8x5
四 4th one day-only exhibition
2009年10月25日, 11am – 6pm
NEIGHBOURHOOD COURTYARD - 社区庭院
no.17 Cao Chang Tou Tiao, Xian Yu Kou Di Qu, Chong Wen District
北京市崇文区鲜鱼口地区草厂头条17号
完美地体现了源于近几年北京郊区在不知所措地迅速变化中的矛盾。房地产政策的目的是鲜鱼口社区原住民的再次回归。对城市的传统性的描述都不适合鲜鱼口,当前是特别有趣的城乡结合。城镇的空间和自然的空间,农村的习惯和现代设备的结合，细微地体现于北京的都市中心。
Xian Yu Kou district perfectly embodies the contradictions stemming
from the rapid transformations which overwhelmed Beijing
neighbourhoods in the past few years. The target of real estate
policies has been partially abandoned and the spaces have recently
been re-occupied by the former inhabitants. None of the traditional
city descriptions can suit Xian Yu Kou, which is, nowadays, a
surprising and totally fascinating combination of city and
countryside, urban spaces and natural ones, rural habits blended in
with contemporary facilities. This micro phenomenon is taking place at
the very centre of the large metropolis of Beijing.
