70年代开始围垦出来的这片土地，今天我们要来使用它。3万多人，12个月，140多万方土，围垦出了17公里长的大堤，填出了4万多亩沃土。这是1971年发生在这里的第一次“生态行动”。这短短的50年的大地上，社会主义垦荒史，集体农业生活，新时期国家生态示范区…叠加登场。 今天，徐震带着他的十几个雕塑空投到了这里。它们掀开屋顶，扒开草丛，直扑到位。把这里当成月球一样登陆，想要接过围垦的接力棒，发明自己的风景。
没顶美术馆将展示艺术家徐震®带来的长期陈设展《登陆1.0》。徐震于2021年在没顶美术馆的室内外空间中开始了这场由人工物，生态，集体记忆，神话等对象叠加，搅拌，不断加入和生长的现场艺术。
在徐震20多年的职业生涯中，他发展出了一种波普主义的实践下的新城市主义波普行动，在中国城市化进程中搅拌出新的波普主义程式。从“徐震超市”，“运动场”，“意识形状博物馆”，“基地”(苹果专卖店)到此次崇明岛没顶美术馆的“登陆1.0”。 徐震®的创作是对全球化城市现实里的错位美学和伦理的嘲讽和戏虐。徐震®凭借其概念打造的力度，对于当代技术-景观-商品现实的美学关怀、和伦理检验，构筑出一个当代艺术新的创造性实践。

Now we are going to use this land reclaimed in the 1970s. It took over 30,000 people twelve months to work on over 1.4 million square meters of land, reclaim a 17-kilometer-long embankment, and fill over 2,600 hectares of fertile soil. This was the first local “ecological action” that took place in 1971. Over a short span of the past fifty years, the land has witnessed socialist land reclamation, collective agricultural life, and the establishment of the “new-era national ecological demonstration area”, among many other incidents.
Today, Xu Zhen airdrops himself here along with a dozen of his sculptures. They tear open the roof, rip through the grass, and pounce right into place. Landing here as if it were the moon, Xu Zhen wants to pick up the baton of recla- mation and invent landscape of his own.
MadeIn Art Museum will present “XU ZHEN®: Embracing Chaos 1.0” as its permanent display. In the indoor and outdoor spaces of the Museum, Xu Zhen launched this live art scene in 2021 where objects such as artifacts, ecology, collective memory, and myths are superimposed, agitated, constantly added in and nurtured.
During his career spanning over two decades, Xu Zhen has developed a new urbanist Pop action informed by Pop art practice and stirred up a new Pop formula in the process of China’s urbanization. From Xu Zhen Supermarket, Move- ment Field, Physique of Consciousness Museum, Base, to “Embracing Chaos 1.0” at the Museum in Chongming Island, the works of XU ZHEN® have been a ridicule and mockery of the dislocated aesthetics and ethics in the globalized cityscape. With his conceptual strength, XU ZHEN® constructs a new creative practice of contemporary art with an aesthetic interest in and ethical examination of the contemporary technology-landscape-commodity reality.
