【卷首语】

作为2017年最后一期新媒体专刊，本期杂志汇聚了年末的一些有趣的新媒体展览。“‘光影秘境’国际新媒体艺术特展”“被动式？有关视觉的提问”等展览，都从不同角度上体现了新媒体技术对于当代艺术问题推演的重要促进意义。

在《理论研究》中，本期夏可君先生的文章纵论东西方现代性的差异，纵横开阖，气象宏大。姚风有关新媒体艺术中观念与语言的探讨，也颇具新意。祁震《早期西方影像艺术语言述略——兼谈艺术家的影像记录与表达》，王燕斐有关《20世纪90年代东京“艺术项目形式”的公共艺术》，都是颇有研究视角的作品。

本期的《热点人物》，我们邀请到了尹秀珍女士，她近年的艺术创作是在最隐私、最缜密、最纤细与最公开、最粗糙、最粗暴的物料之间的固有冲突中所产生及形成的。她的作品或许存在一些争议，但其擅长利用自己对日常事物的特殊洞察力和敏感性，把公众吸引到作品中，并参与作品的完成，这样的做法无疑对于当代艺术具有某种表率作用。

[ Editorial ]

As the last special issue of new media in 2017, this issue brings together some interesting new media exhibitions held at the end of the year.Infinite Dimensions in Digital Art and Beyond， and Passivity? —Questions about Vision，show the importance of new media technology in promoting contemporary art issues from different angles.

In Theoretical Research， Xia Kejun’s article gives a remarkable discussion of the differences in modernity between the East and the West.Yao Feng’s discussion on the concept and language of new media art is also full of new ideas.Qi Zhen’s “A Brief Introduction to the Language of Early Western Video Art—Also on Artists Image Record and Expression”， and Wang Yanfei’s “Public Art in ‘Tokyo Artpoint Project’ of the 1990s”， are both research papers from insightful perspectives.

In Hotspot Figures， we focus on Ms.Yin Xiuzhen， whose recent artworks resulted from inherent conflicts between the materials: the most private， dense， delicate against the most open， rough， and crude.There may be some controversy about her work， but she is good at using her special insight and sensitivity in observing everyday things，transport the audience into her work， and attract them to participate in it， which undoubtedly has a positive effect on contemporary art.
