the solo exhibition by Cao Yin Bin

date: 7 jan. - 27 jan. 2006

一位二十七年的朋友，熟悉的觉得让人模糊，象对待自己，无从说起。很高兴他出这本册子，我的战斗，默默无语的战斗，所有的画面于行为已将他阐述的一干二净，一位经历了风雨留下了童心的人，一个执拗的孩子，无法论述他画面中无数的战斗“伏击”“夜巡”“燃烧的城堡”“捕获的敌人”------那些在他的内心深处所拥有的隐秘空间，我揣想它是那些战斗的旁观者唯一的策划者，喜悦于悲伤是他手中所持的号角，悲伤的胜利与喜悦的惨败，他随心所欲。你是你的朋友，你是你的敌人，一场场无声无息自我的战斗，我愿你胜利。

A friend of mine for twenty seven years. It’s too familiar to say, just like to speak to myself. Very delighted to have the picture book, MY BATTLE, a silent battle. All the pictures and actions are completely expressed by him, who is, in my eyes, just a boy with much experience, a stubborn child. AMBUSCADE, PATROL IN THE DEAR, BURNING CASTLE, CAPTURED ENEMY------.So many battles are all from the secret corner of his deep heart, and I guess, he is the only hatcher and spectator of all the actions. Gladness and sadness is his clarion in hand. He is always enjoying his sad victory and joyful defeat.
You are your own friend, you are your own enemy. In all these silent battle of selfhood, I wish you successful.
