gages：一个自由艺术组合正式发布网络平台

gages is a independent art collective set up by Rubberpixy and Messland in 2006.

The name comes from the Shanghainese phonetic pronunciation ‘plus’ (Ga) and ‘minus’ (Ge). Hence gages’ vision is to create interesting projects, contrast and objects – by adding to and deducting from various artists and their work.

In 2009 gages sets up a website, which will be irregularly updated with collected works of graphic, illustration, graffiti, technology, animation, video, fashion, photography, contemporary art, music and movies etc. In their effort to record every bit and piece of creativity and culture which catches their imagination.

gages’ vision is to relentlessly present the latest and most unique works of art to the public. Objectivity is paramount and you will not find baseless reverence and sacrilege here.

This is the very first step, gages will feature specific topics soon enough. As and when you find new work that inspires, please contact us through wearegages@gmail.com.

The gages site aim to provide information and content from other websites. If there are any offence caused and/or interest infringed by any of our comments and content within the site, please contact us and we will gladly oblige within reason and time. Thank you!

Gages，是橡皮精(RubberPixy)和马西兰(MessLand)在2006年携手创建的一个自由艺术组合。

这个名字的灵感，源自上海方言里“加|减”二字的谐音。所以，gages对自己的定位是：通过艺术家与艺术家、作品与作品之间的相加或相减，来制造有意思的项目、作品或其他的任何超乎想象的事物。

2009年，gages推出了自己的网络平台，两位主理人将不定时的搜集并发布来自世界各地的平面设计、插画、涂鸦、城市艺术、网站、新技术、动画、视频、时尚、活动、摄影、当代艺术、音乐、电影等等富有创新精神的作品与事物，旨在纪录创意和文化的点点滴滴。

gages不会盲目崇拜，亦不会任意诋毁，客观的态度和立场为gages所尊重并持有。gages的使命，就是不遗余力的将独一无二的作品案例呈现在所有热爱艺术的人眼前。
