地处斯堪的那维亚地区的北欧，包括丹麦、芬兰、挪威、瑞典、冰岛五个国家，其设计及工艺制作有着悠久的传统和历史。同时，这些北欧国家制定了保护传统手工艺的策略，力求将传统的手工艺与现代工业设计相结合，并使传统作为一种内在的精神理念，从极富现代感的设计中呈现出来，体现了北欧设计师在设计美学中的追求。从而使北欧设计取得了杰出的成就，被誉为“全球设计的典范”。
关注和举办国际设计艺术展览一直是何香凝美术馆学术定位之一。为此，我们主办了题为“亚热带未有的景象——北欧四国（丹麦、芬兰、挪威、瑞典）设计展”。我们试图通过中国及四国策展人联合举办展览，研讨会、公共教育推广等活动的方式，结合深圳和国内的设计现状，为深圳的观众和设计界提供一次深入了解北欧四国的整体设计生态，特别是他们在不同设计领域的最新进展，并建立深圳及国内与北欧四国设计界进行交流、对话、探讨的机会。也是检视我们自身设计的特殊性和差距性，以及解决面临的相关问题。其目的是希望能提高中国本土设计的整体水平，并与国际设计领域实现多维度的接轨。
在此，谨向北欧四国的合作方、支持机构，四国的参展艺术家、策展人，以及所有为此次展览、研讨会等项目付出辛勤工作的工作人员表示由衷的谢意！
Scandinavia is a region in Northern Europe which covers five countries of Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Iceland and boasts great tradition and long history in design and craftmanship. Meanwhile, these Nordic countries have developed strategies to protect traditional handicraft and spared no effort to combine traditional handicraft with modern industrial design. The tradition, as an inherent spiritual philosophy, is presented in the form of modern design, and embodies the design aesthetics of Nordic designers. Thus, Nordic design has made great achievement and is reputed as the “Global Design Paradigm”.
It has been one of the academic orientations of He Xiangning Art Museum to focus on and hold the international design art exhibition. Therefore, we hold an exhibition themed with “Unseen Vision in Sub-tropical Area—Four Nordic Countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden) Design Show”. With the effort of curators from China and the four Nordic countries, we co-host exhibition, seminars and public education promotion activities combining the current design status in Shenzhen and China at large. We aim to offer an opportunity for the public and design industry professionals to learn about the panorama of design industry in these four Nordic countries, especially their latest progress in different design fields, so that Shenzhen and China at large could communicate and discuss with the design professionals in these four Nordic countries. From that, we could learn about our strength and weakness of our own design and resolve problems confronting us. Our goal is to improve the general standard of Chinese local design and encourage it to connect with international design in different dimensions.
We would like to express our sincere thanks to the partners and supporting institutions, artists and curators from the four Nordic countries, and all staff who contribute to the exhibition, seminars and related activities!
