塔彌斯基(Hubert Damisch)指導出版許多城市與建築相關文章及著作，現任教於巴黎拉維萊特建築學院。
2006歐洲論壇，邀請菲利浦．杜柏伊博士，針對第四屆城市行動藝術節的策展主題《相遇：尋訪遊樂場》，進行演講，講題是《照亮孩子的光》。他將以傅柯 ? 異質空間 ?( Heterotopie)的觀點出發，探討兒童樂園這樣的場域，對孩童及其生命的影響力量。
傅柯(Michel Foucault)指出在每一個文化、文明中，存在著一種「有效制定」的虛構地點，他稱之為「異質空間」。他認為，這種「異質空間」是一種真實空間，他們確實存在，而且是社會的真正基礎。因而，「兒童樂園」的場域，符合了傅柯描述有關異質空間其一的原則，它創造了一個幻想空間，卻是一個完美的、經過仔細安排的真實空間；它揭露確實存在現實之中，但具幻覺的一個「異質空間」。
《相遇：尋訪遊樂場》的主題，也讓杜柏伊憶起波特萊爾對童年的回顧，而從被瓦特．班雅明(Walter Benjamin)與卡爾．克勞斯(Karl Kraus)所重新加以引用的「現代生活畫家」的概念中，就可清楚看到：讓我們童年的某一天重現在我們身上，這應該是個很誘惑人的任務……。杜柏伊認為藝術家與策展人在某種程度上有啟發孩子，成為照亮孩子的那束光的作用（《照亮孩子(Aufklarung fur Kinder)》原為班雅明為廣播電台所寫的文章，後來結集成書。）同時，他更提問哪位藝術家或是策展人可以開發與刺激遊樂場裡小孩子們的「潛能」？答案是藝術家與策展人應該冒險，勇於承擔啟發孩子潛力這個事實的角色，好將「計畫付諸實現」。
今年，歐洲論壇首次和城市行動藝術節結合，論壇的講者將深入《相遇：尋訪遊樂場》的創作場域，涉入六位藝術家的創作過程，隨著作品的發想、製作、延伸，進行貼近觀察的評論。有別於傳統觀看作品的方式，單從藝術理論與美學觀點做客觀的評論；杜柏伊在貼近觀察的過程裡，必須深入事件，用更寬廣的「觀點」，從經濟、社會、文化、美學等面向解讀作品。同時，依照不同的作品個案，對其地方性根源加以拆解，呼應藝術家在「遊樂場」創作，必須準備好面對公眾共同擁有的文化層次，面對公眾共同的價值觀的挑戰。
《相遇：尋訪遊樂場》的展出日期是11月9日至19日。菲利浦．杜柏伊的演講將於11月10日下午2:00-5:00，在敦南誠品的視聽室舉行。

Dr. Philippe Duboy is a scholar of architecture and art history. He produced his PhD dissertation on art history under the direction of the renowned philosopher of semiotics Roland Barthes and the revered historian of French art Hubert Damisch. He has published numerous articles and books on the city and architecture, and currently teaches at l’Ecole d'architecture de Paris La Villette.
Mr. Duboy will deliver a public lecture in Taipei as part of European Forum 2006, speaking on the curatorial theme of the fourth “City on the Move” public art festival, From Encounter to Encounter: Expounding the Playground. Titled “Enlightenment for Children,” his lecture will set forth from the concept of heterotopia (heterotopie), exploring the playground as a space, and its power to impact children and their lives.
The philosopher Michel Foucault asserted that in every culture and civilization there exist certain places that “effectively enact” imaginary realms – sites that he termed “heterotopias.” He considered heterotopias to be real spaces that genuinely exist, and in fact serve as the true foundations of society. Thus, a playground or amusement park fulfills the principles of a Foucaultian heterotopia. It constitutes a fantasy space but is in fact a real site, one that is perfectly and meticulously prepared. It appears within the real world, but is also an expression of the imagination.
For Duboy, the theme From Encounter to Encounter: Expounding the Playground brings to mind Charles Baudelaire’s childhood recollections, and from the citations made by Walter Benjamin and Karl Kraus of the concepts Baudelaire put forward in “The Painter of Modern Life,” we can clearly see that reliving a day from our childhood in our current lives would be a very alluring mission... Duboy believes that to a certain degree artists and curators inspire and indeed illuminate children. (“Enlightenment for Children” – or in the German, “Aufklarung fur Kinder” – was originally a series of radio scripts that Walter Benjamin wrote and later collected in book form.) At the same time, Duboy asks, what artist or curator can activate and stimulate kids’ “potential energy” inside the playground? The answer is that artists and curators should be adventurous, and boldly take on the role of inspiring children’s potential, in order to “to put their plans into effect.”
This year for the first time, European Forum is being combined with “City on the Move” art festival. The lecturer will delve deeply into the creative terrain of From Encounter to Encounter: Expounding the Playground, exploring the creative processes of the six participating artists, and engaging in criticism based on close observation of the artworks’ conceptualization, creation and on-site evolution. Distinct from conventional methods of examining art, which exclusively attempt an objective critique based on art theory and aesthetic perspective, Duboy’s process of close observation requires deep involvement in incidents and the application of a broader “perspective,” interpreting the artworks at such dimensions as economics, society, culture and aesthetics. At the same time, he must decode the local origins of various individual artworks, echoing the artists’ creations in the “playground.” He must also be prepared to address the cultural layer that is the common possession of the public, and meet the challenge of the public’s collective values.
From Encounter to Encounter: Expounding the Playground will be on exhibition from November 9 to 19, 2006. Philippe Duboy will speak from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Friday Nov. 10, 2006 at the Eslite Bookstore, Dunhua South Road Branch.
