Artistic Differences

An Introduction to Selected Contemporary Taiwanese Artists By Odile Chen

Political Metaphors and Personal Identification

Taiwan is surrounded on all sides by the sea in a crucial location in East Asia, near to Japan, China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Since ancient times, it has been a necessary stopping-off place for travel in the western Pacific. It has a subtropical climate and is rich in agricultural products, allowing it to enjoy abundant trade activities. Taiwan’s cultural characteristics are influenced by its geographical circumstances. With its cultural environment as an island with a mainly immigrant population, Taiwan has always been open to expanding opportunities abroad and naturally accepts the pull of foreign cultures. Ever since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Taiwan has had extremely close dealings with China in terms of politics, economics, culture, and society. The two sides of the Taiwan Strait have a cultural background that shares the same language and the same race, but they became separated in terms of politics and geography when Taiwan was ruled as a colony by Japan for 50 years (1895 – 1945) and after the split between the Communists and the Nationalists in 1949. This led to different artistic and cultural styles and trends forming in the latter half of the twentieth century. Today, “Contemporary Asian Art” has become a popular market in the global art world. Large art markets like China, India, and Southeast Asia, or recently rising markets like Japan and Korea have jointly created an unprecedented regional prosperity in art. Contemporary Taiwanese art is often put into the category of “Chinese art” because of the shared language and race. However, the artistic style that has developed in Taiwan since the Second World War is different from the style of China, from which it has been separated for 60 years, so they cannot be spoken of as the same thing. Ravenel Art Group’s Hong Kong auction specially introduces “Contemporary Taiwanese Art,” selecting fourteen contemporary artists who are still active in the art world. They are artists in their 40’s and 50’s who were born in the 1940’s to the 1960’s, and who have achieved fame in the international art world with their own mature styles and personal characteristics. Their artwork will take viewers on a special artistic journey.

In the 1960’s, in order to promote modern painting, a few art students formed avant-garde painting groups in Taiwan such as the Ton-Fan Group and the Fifth Moon Group. They hoped to break out of the conservative style of copying the masters and following conventions and express the essence of traditional painting through modern painting forms. These painters later studied abroad and became the pioneers in the development of modern art in Taiwan. In the 1970’s, the controversy over native literature set off a wave of native realist style in painting, which extended into the middle of the 1980’s. The representative artists of this style are Ju Ming (b. 1938), Hung Tung (1920–1987), and Shiy De-jinn (1923–1981). In 1987, Taiwan announced the end of martial law and ended restrictions on the press and political parties. Military rule was thus ended and the march towards democracy began, which provided a release for artistic creation. Before the end of martial law, there was already a wave of changed thinking occurring in Taiwan, as a group of Chinese Culture University art school graduates formed the Taipei Painting Society in 1985 and rented an abandoned apartment as their temporary exhibition space. The pioneering “Living Clay” started the alternative space trend in 1986. These were outstanding painting groups whose influence extended throughout the 1980’s. The main members of the Taipei Painting Society included painters who are still active in painting circles today, such as Wu Tian-chang, Yang Mao-lin (b. 1953), Kuo Wei-kuo (b. 1960), Lien Chieh-hsing (b. 1962), and Lu Hsien-ming (1959). Yang Mao-lin started out with themes of political criticism by illustrating power struggles with painting series such as “Behavior of Game Playing” and “Made in Taiwan” that expressed the clashes of different forces in life. This later extended to the use of images from historical archeology, bioculture, and topology, developing into historical-type artworks. After the mid 1990’s, he focused on Taiwanese cultural totems, moved by the subculture transplants from America and Japan, developing cultural-type artworks. The auction item, “Florescent Formosa,” is one of Yang Mao-lin’s cultural topologies, introducing the phenomenon of the


invasion of strong foreign cultures in Taiwan, with an intense critical style from the edge that emphasizes subjective consciousness. In 1985, Kuo Wei-kuo joined the Taipei Painting Society and began participating in painting exhibitions. In 1988, he formed the “Handtoo Art Group” and served as director. Its members mostly came from the Taipei Painting Society. In his early career, he painted the exteriors of buildings to make a living in hard economic times, practicing his realistic painting skills. In 1993, his work “Levitation” and his famous “Taiwan Island” work, which were both part of the “Cold and Clear Tension” series, represented the anxiousness of the struggles of the people of Taiwan, with textures and colors of hot and cold contrasts. “Levitation” describes metallic buildings with black images and some pink organic glands quivering outside of the buildings, forming a contrasting, oppressive, restricting, and uncoordinated visual feeling that transmits the inner conflict felt in the changes of contemporary society. Early in his career, Su Wong-shen (b. 1953) actively participated in Taiwanese social campaigns and his artworks contained a rich social component. Faced with a society that was changing rapidly, ancient roots still continued to exist like ghosts. With a bird’s-eye view, beasts wander on an empty stage, seemingly fitting in with the times while also being absurd. His paintings preserve the old memories of Taiwanese society, with an isolated, unworldly atmosphere. His 2003 work “Pagodas” points to the political agitation that exists in Taiwanese society, with upside-down or reclining beasts with heads and

tails connected in a chain that surround a few pagodas while blindly wandering and marching in a military formation in a zigzagging line. It looks orderly and rational, but it is an atmosphere full of unease.

Environmentalism and Social Concern After the 1970’s, Taiwan’s economy suddenly skyrocketed, and by the 1980’s, the country was the richest of Asia’s four little dragons. However, the price for a high degree of industrial development was the

14

sacrifice of the natural environment. The painter Lien Chieh-hsing uses a magical realist painting style to expose the human exploitation of nature. Shut-down mines, ruined factories, and abandoned equipment are evidence of the rise and fall of human industrial production. The ruins in his paintings are portrayed in a very dramatic visual style, containing a hope for art to develop into humanity’s redemption for its cruelty. The work “Wagons in the Passageway”, created in 1983, shows a mottled mud wall and a parked truck with no sign of human life, just junk that has been used and left behind. It can be seen as the image of a historical reflection in Taiwan’s post-industrial age. Chen Chieh-jen (b. 1960) is a Taiwanese artist who has been invited to participate in important international art biennales many times. Early in his career, he was famous for action art, and later worked in painting and video art. Recently, his main works have been documentaries and films. In 1986, he formed the “Living Clay” group with friends Kao Chong-li and Lin Ju. In the beginning, they did action performance art in alternative spaces like abandoned apartments and by the seashore. After 1996, he developed a series of black and white photographs called “Revolt in the Soul and Body” with computer touch-ups of historical photographs of torture. This series overturned the stale impression of images as historical evidence in a sarcastic way, and emphasized the authoritarian rule and cruelty of the State machine. “The Image of Identical Twins” enters a surreal purgatory through computer illustration of the self-image of the artist, while the entire scene seemingly portrays the revelation of the future world with two-headed elephants, chest wounds, a handheld nuclear reactor, and grass roots. It all has the dual

meaning of destruction and vitality, while the painter’s feet stand on a scorched earth with a shape that makes the viewer think of Taiwan. Although Hung Tung-lu (b. 1968) is now in his forties, his creative vocabulary uses the style of subculture, which causes him to be categorized as a representative of the young generation. After 1998, he started to use Japanese anime and manga characters beloved by the e-generation, reflecting a new consumer culture and new aesthetic values. More recently, he has used materials often seen in


advertisements, such as lenticular lenses and lightboxes, to create virtual new and old idols and religious images, projecting people’s emotions on the virtual object in an attempt to escape reality. His 2004 lightbox work “Padmasambhava” shows the virtual computer-illustrated character “Little Hung,” a self projection of the artist, sitting on a lotus throne. In a scene like some techno music heaven, the artist appears in today’s digital age looking for a kind of religious redemption.

Metropolitan Spirit and Spiritual Monologue Most Taiwanese artists feel the need to leave their hometown by going from the countryside to the city or from Taiwan to another country, and the lands that they have passed through in their lives often appear in their paintings. Michell Hwang (b. 1948) originally was a representative of the native realism painting style, depicting the simple, rustic life of the countryside, which was well received. After he returned from traveling abroad in the 1980’s, he started to try something completely new, using human figures as his main subject. He especially likes to use bright red since he thinks that red represents light and power. In recent years, he has worked with sculpture installations, alternately spending time in Beijing and Taipei. In the 1985 work “Young Girl—Chasing Dreams” done early in his career, the lowered head of the young girl shows a reserved beauty, and the exquisite depiction of native realism can still be seen. The composition is ornamental on the surface, and the human figure is stretched out, showing a semi-surrealist tendency. Later, he changed to a preference for capturing the spirit of the masses of the city, especially the fashionable women of Taipei’s east district. He

used a non-representational visual style and gorgeous spatial treatment to describe the crowdedness and noisiness of the city. The 1992 work “Story” describes the passions and hidden emptiness of the men and women of the metropolis with a flowing, passionate tone. The artist Tzu-chi Yeh (b. 1957) lived in New York for 19 years before he returned to his hometown of Hualien in 2006. He uses a classic realist technique and minimalist composition to slowly and quietly paint landscapes, still lifes, human figures, or everyday objects as if they were

a monologue-style personal record of the life of the artist. His “YangMing Mountain in October” describes the scene that the painter often saw in his student life. It is meticulously portrayed, filled with deep emotion. In the mysterious poetic space, the human spirit forms an eternal setting. Another painter who has lived in America and France for a long time is Paul Chiang (b. 1942) who returned to Taiwan in 1998. He is also proficient in describing solemn and tranquil spiritual worlds, and his paintings always have a certain poetic quality. “Eternal Meditation” is a series of paintings that explore life’s rootless emptiness. Paul Chiang secludes himself in a simple painting studio and immerses himself in a state of tranquility, perhaps accompanied by the music of Bach. He enters a spiritual world that is simple, profound, and almost religious. He participates in a spiritual exchange through the methods of physicality, completing a painting of tranquil beauty that even moves the artist.

Pure Aesthetic Style and Surrealism Chiu Ya-tsai (b. 1949) is a graceful painter who, as the author of many novels, received the Wu Chuo-liu Literary Prize. Later, he concentrated his energy on painting portraits of drifters, artists, or women with thin faces and stretched bodies. His style invokes loneliness, worry, selfreflection, and serenity, approaching a modern literati painting style that some compare to Modigliani. The portrait of a woman, “Chunjing”, depicts a female friend of the artist with a kind of pure aesthetic style. The bright clothing and pale face of the subject forms an intense

contrast with the black background. The style of the figure is elegant, but the reserved and indifferent manner emphasizes the emptiness and depression of life. Hwang Jyi (b. 1953) excels at scenes of mysterious dreams, delving into the spiritual depths of humanity. Each painting has a narrative style that expresses a metaphor of the life experience. The human figures in the paintings are transformed in a style that mixes cubism and expressionism. The figures have vacant expressions that seem to pose


an enigma to the viewer. The expressions of the figures in the work “Mother and Daughter” gaze in different directions without a focus, while the extended arms seem as heavy as a statue. The figures in the background stare at the viewer, adding a layer of dramatic tension. The artist’s many mother and child paintings seem unconnected with any affection, as the mothers and children represent opposing forces in an expression of a mysterious and alternative dream world. The early works of Alixe Fu (b. 1961) in the 1980’s had an expressionist style, with the twisted and rolling figures in the paintings expressing a state of unease. The artist moved to France in 1987, and, in 1991, entered the van Gogh Village residency program promoted by the French government, in which he lived in the village of Auver-sur-Oise, the last home of Vincent van Gogh. The work “Wing of Cloud”, created in 1992, takes its background from the beautiful scenes of Auver-sur-Oise. The scene is wide open and the figures in the painting are camouflaged as scarecrows or as crosses. The painter purposively transforms them into a new image to make one think of life and death. The colors tend to be simple, like a gentle dreamscape, giving off a certain degree of surrealism.

Tradition Reborn in a New Style of Sculpture In Taiwan, besides painting and avant-garde video, the field of sculpture is also very active. The traditional carving and stone carving art season and the modern carving exhibitions held every year always result in great achievements. The foremost figure of the Taiwan sculpture world, Ju Ming (b. 1938), was influenced by the themes of the native literature movement in the 1970’s with his series “The Living World”. His reputation as an international master was cemented with his “Taichi Series” which mixed Chinese philosophy with a modern abstract language. The bronze statues of the “Taichi Series” display wellexecuted martial arts, and the bronze material gives the postures of Ju Ming’s Taichi masters a substantial weightiness. Li Chen (b. 1963) is a sculptor who has been active in the international art world in recent years. As a Buddhist, his works often transmit messages of wisdom and harmony. His works all have the naturally powerful, complete style beloved by Easterners, while being full of meaning and mixing in some elements of modern sculpture. He often uses a collage technique with the colors of black and gold or black and silver with a rich, original creative language. The work “Cloud Glide” uses the sentence “he mounted on the clouds, drove along the flying dragons, rambling and enjoying himself beyond the four seas” from Chuang-tzu’s “Enjoyment in Untroubled Ease”. The work transmits the spiritual pursuits of the artist, full of the joy of riding the clouds. Even though Taiwan is a small island, its development in the fields of technology, economics, politics, media, entertainment, and the Arts have a certain visibility around the globe. In today’s world where there are closer ties between countries, the issue of globalization has been a hot topic for many years. However, it is important for the distinctive artistic styles of each region to be preserved. The world needs unity, but art, however, needs to maintain its differences.

藝術大不同 台灣當代藝術家選介 文 / 陳惠黛 台灣地理位置四面環海,居於東亞交通折衝位置,鄰近日本、 韓國、中國、香港、越南、菲律賓,自古以來即是各國航行太 平洋的必經之地。氣候屬亞熱帶,擁有富庶的農業物產,貿易 活動向來興盛。台灣的文化特色,也因其地緣關係,移民人口 為主的海島地理人文環境,向來崇尚往外拓展生機,自然易接 受外來文化的吸引。 自明清以降,台灣和海峽對岸的 中國,在政治、經濟、文化、社 會等層面即有密不可分的交往。 兩岸擁有同文同種的文化背景, 然而因台灣曾受日本殖民50年 (1895-1945),後來加上1949 年的國共分裂,政治與地理的分 隔,造成二十世紀下半葉海峽兩 岸的藝術文化形成不同的風貌與 發展傾向。 今日全球的藝術圈中「亞洲當代 藝術」漸成一門市場顯學,原本 即頗具規模的中國、印度、東南 亞或近期崛起的日本、韓國等地 的藝術市場,共同促進前所未有 的區域榮景。在此,台灣現當代 藝術因同文同種之民族因素,與 其他海外華人藝術家一樣,通常 被歸類於「中國藝術」或「華人 藝術」的範疇。然而,二次大戰 後的台灣所發展的藝術面貌,與 分隔六十年的中國大陸藝術其實 是兩樣風情,不宜合為一談。 在此,羅芙奧香港拍賣特別選介 「台灣當代藝術」,介紹十四位 仍活躍藝壇的當代藝術家。他們 多數為1940年至1960年代前後出 生的四十、五十多歲以上的藝術家,在國際藝術界享有一定知 名度,風格成熟且具有個人特色。期盼透過他們的創作,帶給 觀者各具特色的藝術行旅。

1987年台灣宣布解除戒嚴令,開放報禁、黨禁,從此結束軍 事專制,走向民主,藝術創作也獲得解放。在解嚴之前,台灣 土地早已醞釀一波改變的思潮,一群文化大學美術系畢業學生 組成的「台北畫派」(1985),以及租用棄置公寓作為臨時展 場,興起替代空間展演先驅的「息壤」(1986),皆是1980年 代非常出色的畫會團體,其影響 力一直延續到1990年代。 「台北畫派」的主要成員包括今 日仍活躍於藝壇的吳天章、楊 茂林、郭維國、連建興、陸先銘 等。楊茂林從最早描寫權力爭鬥 的政治批判主題,有「遊戲行 為」、「台灣製造」等系列衝撞 生命力的發聲,而後延伸到歷史 考古、生物人文、地誌學的圖 像運用,發展出歷史篇的創作, 1990年代中期後著眼於台灣文化 圖騰,有感於美國、日本等次文 化娛樂移植,發展出文化篇的創 作。此次的拍品《寶島花開》即 是楊茂林的文化地誌學,提出台 灣異文化的強勢入侵現象,具有 強烈草莽批判風格,強調主體意 識。 郭維國1985年加入「台北畫 派」,參與畫展。1998年發起組 成「悍圖社」並任社長,成員多 承接自「台北畫派」。早年因經 濟因素以繪製建築外觀圖謀生, 練就寫實描繪的功力。1993年創 作的《漂浮的心》和著名的《台 灣島》作品皆屬於「冷冽張力」 系列創作,以冷熱對比的質感、 色彩,暗喻島內人民掙扎的焦慮狀態。《漂浮的心》作品中描 寫黑色形象的金屬建築體,一些粉紅色有機腺體在建築之外蠕 動,形成對立、壓抑、束縛、不協調的視覺感受,傳達當代社 會變異中人的內在衝突感。

政治隱喻與身分認同 1960年代幾位美術系學生為倡導現代繪畫,台灣出現東方、五 月等前衛畫會組織,他們期盼打破臨摹、因襲的保守風氣,以 現代的繪畫形式來表現傳統繪畫的精髓,這些畫家後來多留學 海外,成為台灣現代美術發展的先驅。1970年代因鄉土文學的 論戰,激發了一波繪畫的鄉土寫實風潮,延續到1980年代中 期。其中朱銘、洪通、席德進等藝術家為其中代表。

蘇旺伸早年積極參與台灣街頭社會運動,他的創作中有潛藏著 豐富的社會性。面對快速變遷的社會中,老樹或舊墳延續幽靈 般地依舊存在。鳥瞰的視野下,貓狗般的獸遊蕩在虛無的舞台 空間裡,看似突梯、荒謬,他的繪畫裡帶有台灣社會的陳舊記 憶,保留一份孤獨遺世的清芬。2003年創作的《浮屠》作品指 涉台灣社會存在的政治騷動現象,群獸或倒或臥,頭尾相連地 串連行進,圍繞著幾座浮屠寶塔,盲目遊蕩,遊行的隊伍形成 一條蜿蜒的線條,看似秩序、理性但其實瀰漫著不安的氣氛。


環保與社會關懷 台灣經濟在1970年代後突飛猛進,到了1980年代躋身成為最富 裕的亞洲四小龍。然而高度工業發展的背後,卻以犧牲自然環 境作為代價。畫家連建興藉由魔幻寫實風格繪畫,揭露人類對 自然的掠奪。停產的礦場,頹傾的廠房,棄置的採運設施,都 是人類工業生產興衰的見證。他畫中廢墟般的視覺場景非常具 有劇場性格,企盼藉藝術發抒為人類的殘酷提出救贖。創作於 1983年的早期畫作《通道中的車子》,斑駁的泥牆,停泊的貨 車,人類已經離去,僅剩下利用後的滄桑廢墟,可視為台灣後 工業時期的歷史反思圖像。 陳界仁乃是獲邀參加國際重要美術雙年展次數最多的台灣藝術 家,最早以行為藝術聞名,後從事繪畫、影像創作,近期以紀 錄片和電影為主要創作。1986年曾與高重黎、林鉅等友人組成 「息壤」團體。最早在廢棄公寓、海邊等體制外替代空間從事 行為表演的藝術家。自1996年後以電腦重繪歷史酷刑照片,發 展出「魂魄暴亂」系列黑白照片,以擬真、戲謔方式,顛覆影 像長期作為歷史真實證據的刻板印象,凸顯國家機器的權力宰 制及殘酷。《連體魂》以藝術家自我的形象,透過電腦繪畫進 入擬真的煉獄世界,整個畫面宛如呈現末世到來的天啟場景, 雙首像,胸腹的裂口,手持的原子反應爐元件及草根,皆有毀 滅與生機的雙重意義,而畫家雙腳站立的焦土形狀令人聯想起 了台灣。 洪東祿儘管現已屆四十歲,但洪東祿採用的創作語彙,貼近次 文化風潮,經常被歸類為年輕世代的代表藝術家。從1998年後 他開始大量使用E世代熟悉的日本電玩卡漫人物,反應新的消 費文化與美學價值觀。後來他又運用廣告常見的影像輸出光柵 片、燈箱等素材,創造一些虛擬的新舊偶像、聖像,將人的情

18

感投射在虛擬的對象企圖逃避現實。2004年創作的《蓮花生》 燈箱裝置作品,影像中端坐蓮花座上的主角是藝術家以電腦繪 圖虛擬的人物「小紅」,也是他自我的投射。電音迷幻般的天 堂情境,藝術家以一種宗教救贖的姿態出現在今日數位時代。

都會風情與心靈獨白 台灣藝術家多有離鄉之需求,或從鄉村到城市,或從台灣到 異國,生命中經歷過土地常會出現在他們的繪畫中。黃銘哲 原是鄉土寫實畫家的代表,描繪農家簡樸的生活,頗受好評。 1980年代自外國遊歷返回後,開始全新的嘗試,以人物為主要 題材。他尤其偏愛豔麗的紅作為主調,認為紅色代表光明與力 量。近年致力於雕塑裝置作品,往來於北京、台北兩地。黃銘 哲創作於1985年的早期作品《少女—追夢》,少女低首具有 東方含蓄之美,仍可見鄉土寫實的精緻描寫,構圖平面具裝飾 性,人物比例拉長,漸有半抽象的雛形。後來他轉而喜愛捕捉 都會眾生相的風情,尤其是台北東區時髦女性,以非具象的視 覺造型,華麗的空間處理,寫照都市的擁擠與喧譁。1992年 《故事》作品即是以流暢、熱情的筆調,描述都會男女的情慾 及隱身在後的幽微空虛。 旅居紐約19年的畫家葉子奇,2006年返回故鄉花蓮定居。他 以古典寫實技法、極簡的構圖,慢慢地靜靜地描畫,無論是風 景、靜物、人物,或是日常生活中的物件,都像是畫家個人獨 白式的生命記錄。《十月的陽明山》描寫畫家學生時代經常凝 視的風景,記憶裡熟悉易感的場景,一筆一畫精心鋪陳,充滿 濃郁的情懷,神祕的詩意空間裡,人的精神在此形成永恆凝 結。 另外一位長年旅居美、法的畫家江賢二,在1998年回台灣定


居,他亦擅長描寫莊嚴、靜謐的心靈世界,其畫作向來具有詩 意特質。《永恆的冥想》是一系列探索生命、無垠太虛的聯 作。江賢二閉居在簡單的畫室,將自己沈浸於一種寧靜的狀 態,或伴隨巴哈的音樂,引領進入一種簡潔、深沈,接近宗教 境界的心靈世界。他以身體力行的方式,進行心靈交會,完成 一幅寧靜而美的構成,連畫家自己亦深受感動。

唯美風格與超現實 邱亞才是一位富有文采的畫家,曾經獲得吳濁流文學獎,著有 多本小說。後來他專注於繪畫創作,主題皆為肖像畫,筆下的 人物多是描寫漂泊者、藝術家或女子,面容清瘦,身影拉得頎 長,風格傾向孤寂、憂鬱、內斂、沈靜,接近現代文人畫,亦 有人以「莫迪里亞尼」比擬。女子肖像畫《純靜》描寫畫家的 女性友人,具有一種唯美的風格。畫中主角鮮豔的衣著與蒼白 的面容、黑色背景形成強烈反差。人物造型古雅,但顯然拘謹 的姿態和神情漠然,凸顯人生的空乏與頹靡。 黃楫擅長以神祕夢境般的場景,去窺探人類的心靈深處,每一 幅作品皆帶有敘事風格,可說是生活經驗的隱喻。畫中人物造 型多經變形,甚至混雜著立體主義、表現主義的風格,人物的 表情茫然,傳達謎一般的訊息。作品《母與女》中母女的眼神 各迎向一方,沒有交集,拉長的手臂沈重如雕塑,背景的人畫 注視著觀者,增添戲劇張力。藝術家過去類似的母子主題,其 實常常無關親情,女子及幼兒代表兩種相對應的力量,表現神 祕而另類的夢境世界。 傅慶豊於1980年代的早期作品常帶有表現主義,畫中人物扭曲 翻滾呈現心理的不安狀態。1987年他遷居法國生活,1991年又 獲得法國國家推行的梵谷村駐村計畫,生活在梵谷生前最終宿

地奧維。《雲意》為1992年的創作,畫中的背景取自優美的奧 維風景,畫面顯得開闊,畫中的人物或偽裝成稻草人,或偽裝 成十字架,畫家有意轉化為新的意象,給人生死聯想,色彩上 則轉趨單純,如夢境般柔美,帶有超現實主義風格。

傳統再生雕塑新貌 除了繪畫、前衛影像之外,台灣的雕塑領域也頗具有規模,每 年舉辦的傳統雕刻、石雕藝術季及現代雕刻展覽,過去都累積 出色的成果。而台灣的雕塑界大師的首推朱銘,1970年代受鄉 土文學思潮影響,早期創作鄉土系列,以及人間系列等主題。 而尤以融合中國哲學,具有現代抽象語彙的「太極系列」奠定 其國際大師的地位。銅雕《太極系列—側踢》,展現俐落刀斧 工夫,青銅的材質使得朱銘的太極拳者的姿態產生堅實的量 感。 李真則是近幾年活躍於國際藝壇的雕塑家,身為佛教徒,其作 品亦常傳達智慧、圓融之意。他的創作一律採東方人喜愛渾厚 圓滿造型,富有趣味,又融入當代雕塑素材。 常以黑與金,或 黑與銀兩色拼貼技術,豐富原有的創作語彙。作品《乘雲氣》 引用莊子《逍遙遊》的「乘雲氣,御飛龍,而遊乎四海之外」 一句。作品傳達藝術家的精神追求,人物騰雲飛翔,充滿喜 悅。 儘管台灣只是蕞爾小島,但在科技、經濟、政治、新聞、娛 樂、藝術等領域的發展,在全球都有一定的能見度。今日世界 之間聯繫密切,全球化的議題延燒多年,但保留各地獨特的藝 術風貌何其重要,世界要大同,藝術則需大不同。

Back in the 80's, Michell Hwang ended his sojourn in Europe and returned to Taiwan. The feeling of unanchored alienation from being abroad was replaced with the confident familiarity of being at home. Now no longer tainted with the damp fog of England, his existence is devoted to the strength of geometry. From the artist's works of this period it can be seen that characters often have claw-like toes and weirdly open hands; this points to the development of later works, and the "expressions" implicit in the hands and feet are key to the tension hidden within the characters as expressed by the artist. This work, "Young Girl- Chasing Dream" depicts the main character realistically, being faithful and sensitive to each line and stroke, and emphasizing the important visual aspects of the character. However, what is more worthy of attention is the character's attire; from within the deep blue vibrant colors emerge and spring forth, existing under endless layers of alteration, covering and reshaping. Evidently, while remaining true to the form of the girl, the artist is seeking to abandon some previously acquired proficiency.

80年代,黃銘哲結束在歐洲的生活回到台 灣,身處異鄉的漂浮感不見了,取而代之 的是回到故鄉的自信。不再染著英格蘭空 氣中的迷濛,而是為了堅實的幾何構成 而存在。從藝術家同一個時期的創作中發 現,畫面中的人物常常出現像爪子般彎曲 的腳趾與雙手詭異的張開,暗藏了之後作 品的脈絡,其實這些手趾與腳趾的「表 情」,正是藝術家傳達造型張力的重點。 此幅作品《少女—追夢》畫面中的人物主 角,藝術家以寫實的手法呈現,忠實掌握 敏銳精準的線條,強調畫中人物在視覺表 現上重要的部份,但另外更值得注意的是 少女身上的衣著,在深層的藍色中,繽紛 的色彩正在跳躍;正在奔放,它們是存在 於不斷覆蓋、修改與積累的形塑過程中。 顯然,藝術家在延續造型輪廓的前提下, 也急切的想要放棄一些曾經擁有的熟練。

Su is not an artist with lofty ideals or a historical mission, and you will not hear him holding forth about truth and justice. Even so, as a young man coming of age in the eighties, he has experienced his fair share of tumultuous change and upheaval as Taiwan underwent a period of rapid political, social and economic transformation. Those times left a deep and lasting imprint on his mind and, if anything, it has made him all the more attached to his native island—a quality that is eloquently betrayed in his artistic work. Abstract images and intricate shapes hint at the complicated emotions that went into each of his compositions, grabbing the viewer’s attention like hesitating divinations of the future, as if Su was reluctant to say too much and rather left it to the observer to complete the artist’s evolving prophecies. From their content and titles it is easy to see that Su’s works touch only superficially on social topics and current issues. This is also true of this lot, which features more tentative representations of the painter’s inner self, introspective musings about his life and the world around him—only now Su’s thinking has become even more complex and profound. There is less irony and more emotion, but it is all still bathed in accustomed cursory nonchalance.

雖然蘇旺伸沒有什麼淑世的理想或使命, 亦不願說教般地揭示什麼公義真理,但一 個成長成熟於80年代的青年,曾經深深體 會到台灣社會的劇烈變化,那強烈與深刻 的感知,使他對自身所從出的土地,仍然 充滿關情,這種老靈魂的特質無從擺脫。 於是,他紀錄下這些心情,以各種抽象的 化身與曲折的形式,暗示著在畫布背後複 雜糾結的可能,像一則起了頭即嘎然而止 的預言,留予不同的心靈演譯將之完成。 無論從內容或為它們命名的方式,蘇旺伸 此前的作品中對社會性議題的關注都是較 為外顯的,而在這件作品中,更多的是內 省式的精神觀照,他們依然根植於畫家的 生命境遇,只是那思維的面向更為複雜與 深沉,少了一些嘲謔,多了一絲感傷,卻 是一般的無所謂。 (節錄自誠品畫廊2003年9月《蘇旺伸》畫冊)

In 1994, a friend presented Zhou Chunya with a German shepherd dog named “Hei Gen”, which since then became part of his life and turned into a source of his creations. Afterwards, Zhou Chunya endowed “Hei Gen” with green color symbolizing good luck in the west, so the “Green Dog” came into being. The “Green Dog” was no longer the same as the original dog “Hei Gen”, and as well gradually became Zhou Chunya’s most representative work. In more than a decade, Zhou Chunya created dozens of “Green Dog” series paintings. The various looks and gestures in his works as well as being profoundly metaphorically demonstrate modern people’s loneliness and the danger between one human being and another. This “Green Dog” painting takes bright green as its principal part, along with an open mouth, the expression in the eyes, and has concise form but with a tactile impression the same as that of a sculpture; the brushwork appears to hide great power and the ripply layers of color also contain a kind of extremely unregulated element providing a heart-frightening vigour, which deeply reflect Zhou Chunya’s mind process in this period. Zhou Chunya said: “ Green Dog is a mark and a symbol, and green is a quiet, romantic and lyrical color which has a serene artistic conception.” That is, he expresses a kind of feeling by the painting “Green Dog”, which seems to be more than any sort of exact subject interpretation.

1994年,朋友送給周春芽一條叫做「黑 根」的德國牧羊犬,從此這條狗融入了他 的生活並成為他創作的源泉,後來周春芽 將西方代表好運的綠色賦予了「黑根」, 因而成就了「綠狗」。 《綠狗》的出現已經不再是原來的「黑 根」了,它也漸漸成為周春芽最具有代表 性的作品。十多年來,周春芽毫不間斷的 的創作了數十幅「綠狗」系列的作品。其 作品中出現了不同的神情和姿態,也深深 的暗示出了現代人的孤獨,以及人與人之 間的危險。 此幅《綠狗》以鮮亮的綠色為主體,張開 的嘴巴,兩眼的神情,簡潔的形態但擁有 像雕塑一樣的質感,筆觸中似乎隱含著巨 大的力量,漣漪的層次色彩中也有一種 極不穩定的因素,給人一種震懾人心的氣 勢。這也深深的折射出周春芽此時期的心 路歷程。 周春芽本人這樣說過:「綠狗是一個符 號,一種象徵,綠色是寧靜的、浪漫的、 抒情的,包含了爆發前的寧靜的意境。」 這就是說,他通過「綠狗」在表達一種感 覺,這種感覺似乎已經超越了任何一種確 切的主題詮釋。

In present artistic circles, there are only a few people who can achieve the command of good color dynamics such as Zhou Chunya, among whose works the best ones include “Green Dog”, “Scarlet Stone” and “Peach Blossom”, which have become synonymous with his name. Since 1995 after completing a number of works with stones and flowers as subject matter, Zhou Chunya began to focus on and express surrounding things and friends, thus creating the works of the “Friend Series”. Apart from the portraitures painted for friends, especially artist friends, Zhou Chunya painted a few self-portraits. This is one of the few self-portraits by Zhou Chunya, where technique of expression skillfully integrates western sketching and Chinese traditional ink; at first sight, it seems to be an old photograph yellowed by age, in which Zhou Chunya’s personal straightness characteristic is perfectly and completely presented, and the hair outlined with straight strokes looks wide, strong and a little bit shaggy, thus making it more thoughtful. The person in this picture closes his eyes with tight eyebrows, completely venting out the underlying feelings; as it were, this is a portrait of the heart at that time. Zhou Chunya has never paraded himself in his creations, but has created excellent works piece by piece with the creative idea of pursuing a natural style. In artistic circles, only a few people can achieve so much.

周春芽在對色彩的把握的力度上做得恰到 好處,在當今藝壇中僅有少數人可以做 到,其作品以《綠狗》、《猩紅山石》、 《桃花》為最,因此這些代表作也都已成 為他的代名詞。從1995年開始,在創作完 一批以石頭和花卉為題材的作品後,周春 芽開始關注和表現身邊的事物和朋友,由 此誕生了「朋友」系列的作品。 除了為朋友,特別是藝術家同行朋友而做 的肖像外,還有一些自畫像,此幅就為周 春芽少有的自畫像作品之一,表現手法上 將西方的素描和中國傳統的水墨巧妙的融 合在一起。乍眼望去,好像一張因年限久 遠而發黃的老照片。周春芽本身的率性在 這幅作品中也完美的呈現出來,通過率性 的筆觸勾勒出頭髮,粗壯而略有雜亂,越 發顯得深沉。畫面中的人物雙眼緊閉,眉 頭緊鎖,將心中內在的情感毫無保留的宣 洩而出,可謂當時真實的內心寫照。 周春芽從未在創作中標榜自己,而是本著 追求自然的創作理念,不斷創作出一件件 佳作,如此的成就,在藝壇中僅有少數人 達到了。

Zhang Xiaotao started to create this picture in 2005, and exhibited it the following year. The picture describes the life experience of petty intellectuals in the context of contemporary Jiangnan (south of the lower reaches of the Yangtse River). The pattern is partially derived from the movies “Springtime in a Small Town” and “February of Early Spring”, but more from the feeling and real experience during the process of media communication. With a Non-“Photographic Painting” concept adopted, the reality and virtuality of image of the times are combined, forming indefinite codes to comb the painter’s inner world. In the hearts of others, integration of the outer world may be a wrong password or a messy code, but from the perspective of the artist, it is a code integrating information of the senses of the times and reality, from the past to the present; therefore, it is full of “confusion” and antinomy when people decode the picture with a variant “true feeling”. The picture records and testifies people’s experience of life traced in current real life, such as joy, sadness, glory, decadence and failure. The paradoxical relations found in the picture fades people’s inherent concept, and makes it a concept of image based on relative memory.

張小濤從2005年開始創作,翌年在上海展 出,畫面中描述的是當代江南語境中的小 知識分子的生活體驗,這種模式部分來源 於《小城之春》、《早春二月》,更多的 是歸於媒體傳播過程中的一種感受與現實 的體驗。畫中採用非「影畫派」的概念, 將時代圖像的真實性和虛擬性融合起來, 以不定式的編碼, 將畫家的內心世界梳 理,對外部世界的整合,在別人的心中 或許是錯誤密碼或亂碼,而從畫家的角 度來看,是一種時代、現實感、古往今 來的資訊綜合的編碼,人們會以一種變異 了的「真實感覺」去譯碼,充滿了「迷糊 度」、充滿悖論。畫中記錄和見證當下的 人們對現實生活中的生命痕跡─歡樂、悲 傷、燦爛、頹敗等經驗 ,在圖像裡面找 到這種悖論關係,淡化人們的固有概念, 讓它變成一個圖像的概念,一個記憶化了 的概念。

In 1993 Yan Pei Ming was granted “Grand Prix du Roman”, an award given by the French government and winners of it include such prestigious figures in art history as Poussin, David, Ingres, Debussy and Berlioz, among others. Yan Pei Ming is the third Chinese, along with Zao Wou-ki and Chen Zhen, to have his works collected and exhibited in the George Pompidou Center; he has held also a solo exhibition in Paris and posters of his works were seen every where in the city during the exhibition time. As the international curator Hou Hanru said: “ Ming is a real big shot”, “A man is no longer a good artist when he looked especially like an artist”. The fame-winning Yan Pei Ming did not go back to show off in the restaurant which poured insults onto him since his mild nature made him never dwell on the unhappy past for long on the one hand, and on the other hand he thought there was still a long way to go for his goal. “My ultimate goal is to become a global influential artist recognized by the whole world”, as he talked about his ambition. What got him access to the international art circle was his “Mao Zedong series”. The series started in 1987 and in 1991 for his first exhibition Yan Pei Ming named it: “My Story Begins with His History”. In the eyes of Yan Pei Ming, one suffering through the tail end of the Cultural Revolution, Mao Zedong is not only an image but more than that a part of the history of China. A painter has no history of himself and no one knows who he is, however, with the great household name Mao Zedong, Yan Pei Ming found his self. The importance of theme for an art beginner can by no means be denied, but theme can unnecessarily constitute the whole core of his works. The works of Yan Pei Ming carries

68

the distinctive characteristics of his own. The large dimension and monotones of his pictures—what he pursues is to obtain the maximum effect with the fewest and simplest materials—once the works stand in the exhibition hall, they take on an aggressive air immediately and are powerful enough to draw all the attention on themselves. The paintings of Yan Pei Ming always bear the expression of strength. The two huge images Li Xiaolong by Yan Pei Ming were once hung in Dijon Rail Station in France and became a unique cultural sight of the locality for some time. It is believed whoever with the chance of seeing the painter working will be deeply impressed. Compared to his theme and painting dimension, Yan Pei Ming makes the painting process a more performance art waving his long brush towards the cloth and getting dabs of paint splattering. This performance art, different from that of the American abstract painter Jackson Pollock

monotone which further exhibits the mapped background and spiritual language of Mao. The works of Yan Pei Ming betray a strong desire of conquer. He works over 10 hours every day just like an ever-running machine. He knows quite well what on earth he wants. “Chinese artists can always live on their own fat and one painting might feed one all his life, but in the West the more successful an artist is, the harder he works.”, he said.

who aims at painting freedom by splashing and spattering paints, Yan Pei Ming stresses more on the possibility of commanding the whole painting process and the ultimately realized expression. Yan Pei Ming never drafts and even with super huge pieces he completes them in one breath with the last touch to polish. The earlier work “Mao Zedong” in 1992 is the very representative of his most characteristic works. The painting was completed at an amazingly fast speed as usual and when the authoritative image was created, it was decomposed at the same time. It impresses the viewers as a kind of idol worship yet it is, in its fundamental nature, a kind of attack against the idol by makting the image deformed. Yan Pei Ming has painted Mao Zedong, Bruce Lee and his father, friends and himself, but the oblivious small potatoes are always the heroes in his works which mostly focus on the facial expressions. In this well-known portrait series, Mao Zedong is the most basic and important theme, especially the one named “Vermillion Red Mao Zedong” which displays the strong theme with the spotlight lying in the double-structure. One is a portrait and the other is the Yan Pei Ming-style

1993年,嚴培明得了「羅馬大獎」,這個 由法國政府設立的獎,在藝術史上赫赫有 名,普桑、大衛、安格爾、德布西和白遼 士都曾得過此獎。他是第三個作品被法 國龐畢度藝術中心收藏和展示的中國人, 在此之前只有趙無極和陳箴;他在巴黎舉 辦個展,展覽期間,整個城市到處都是印 著他大幅作品的海報。國際策展人侯翰如 說:「明是真正的大佬」,嚴培明自己的 說法是:「當一個人表面上看起來特像個 藝術家的時候,他已經不是個很好的藝術 家了」。成名以後的嚴培明並沒有回到之 前的餐館耀武揚威,一方面,平和的性格 讓他釋然了過去的經歷;另一方面,面對 已經取得的成就,在嚴培明看來,依然沒 能達到他定給自己的目標。「我的標準定 在最頂峰的,受全世界公認,在全世界有 影響的藝術家。」 第一個,也是讓其得以進入國際藝林的作 品是「毛澤東」系列。此系列開始於1987 年,1991年舉辦第一個個展,嚴培明給展 覽起名為:「通過他的歷史我的故事剛開 始」。經歷過文革的嚴培明,在其眼中, 毛澤東不僅是一個形象,更是一段中國的 歷史,畫家本人沒有歷史,沒人知道他是 誰。通過毛澤東這樣一個無所不 在、無人不知的偶像,嚴培明引 出了自我。當一個藝術家剛開始 創作的時候,主題的重要性勿庸 置疑,但主題並不一定能構成全 部核心。嚴培明的作品風格鮮 明,巨大的尺幅,單色調的畫 面—他追求的是用最簡單的材料 達到最大的效果—一旦作品進入 展廳,便可呈現出咄咄逼人,足 以把任何目光從其他畫面上拉走 的氣勢。嚴培明的繪畫具有凝聚 力量的質感。在法國第戎火車站

的等候大廳裡,嚴培明創作的兩幅巨大的 李小龍作品曾經懸掛在火車站內,構成當 地的一個文化景觀。 每一個親眼見過畫家作畫的人都會產生強 烈的印象,相比於他的題材和尺幅,更重 要的是,他幾乎把繪畫的整個過程變成了 一種行為藝術。他用長刷子直接揮向畫 布,顏料飛濺。這種行為藝術和美國抽象 表現主義大師波洛克在畫布上的滴濺潑灑 不同,波洛克想要實現的是繪畫的自動 性,而嚴培明更強調對繪畫過程的掌握和 最終實現的表達的可能性。 他從來不畫小稿,再大的畫也是一次性畫 上去,最後一遍是重新畫一次,以再次改 變之前的畫面。此幅創作於1992年的早期 毛澤東即是他最具風格的作品的代表。 依然是以極快的速度完成一張毛的形象的 大畫,在塑造這個權威形象的同時解構形 象,看似偶像崇拜,卻以畫面的破壞對偶 像進行了攻擊。 嚴培明畫毛澤東、李小龍、畫他的父親、 他的朋友和他自己,但更多的是畫那些無 名的小人物,大部分創作都集中表現人的 面部。在這一系列成名肖像畫中,毛澤東 是最原初、最重要的題材,「硃砂紅毛澤 東」是尤其強勁的主題,此張的亮點在於 雙聯幅的結構,一張肖像,另一張嚴培明 式的單色畫面,延展了毛的影射背景和精 神語言。 嚴培明的作品帶有強烈的征服欲,他每天 工作十幾個小時,不停地工作,就像機器 開在那裡。因為他知道自己想要的是什 麼,他說:「中國藝術家可以吃老本,一 張畫成名可以吃一輩子,在西方,藝術家 越成功越努力。」

Zhang Xiaogang, born in 1958 in Kunming and graduated from the Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts in 1982, is an active figure on the stage of contemporary Chinese art. The Kafka-type artist has been devoted to his attempts for a lyrical expression of his inner feelings. From a very beginner at a young age to an unexpected enrollment in the Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts and from the establishment of distinctive art characteristics after returning from abroad to record-breaking auctions, Zhang Xiaogang, an artist who comes back to the spiritual point of origin after a great many experiences, is asking himself in a sincere and honest way: “Why am I doing this?” To this question Zhang never hesitates to give the answer. In his interview with Yang Lan, he said: “I think I really love art and it is all I am quite sure.” Since returning from Germany, he has visited so many galleries and museums that the sight of them would make him “throw up”, as he described. In this process the artist came to understand that all those masters in art history are completely beyond surpassing, not for their skills but because they already exist. “However hard you work and learn, you are nothing but remain a student forever and what’s more you are outside their cultural domain. I was happy I could understand this and for a moment I felt I found my roots at last. The feeling at the time was pretty real. I seemed always in my seeking for who I was and where I belonged. It’s all I wanted. Later I went back to Kunming and saw the old pictures from my childhood and I saw the pictures of my parents at their young age. Suddenly I came to realize however old they might be, you could still feel all the same the social influence on these most private family photos.” (Zhang Xiaogang Interview with in Yang Lan, Oriental TV Channel).

The “Big Family” series, in a cultural sense, manages to present the family background in the photo-like paintings and this family background, on the other hand, is the right miniature of the society at the time. This piece by Zhang Xiaogang was created in 2005. It presents the fate of a young girl in a standard photo style with the symbolic Zhang-style “light spot”. Photos like this can be found in the drawer of every Chinese family, some one inch and some two inches in size. Kids in the photos are mostly of this age and girls all unexceptionally wear uniform bangs above their brows, two braids, a white shirt and a red scarf. It is something of that time, a memory of that age. “ S o u t h e r n P e o p l e We e k l y ” m a g a z i n e remarked: “Characters in the old photos seemingly mottled with age all wear the uniform look, dress and expression which was standardized at that time, single eyelids with pupils slightly protruding, indifferent and alert. The face seems to be behind a misty veil, displaying a strange and amazing texture, smooth, subtle and with texture.” Prior to that, Zhang Xiaogang never stopped his trace of memory and affection. If the “Big Family” is to mourn for the group consciousness, the later “Amnesia and Memory” can be regarded as a kind of private and deep brooding of the artist. As to “Amnesia and Memory”, well, I am pretty concerned with personal memory. One more memory means one more loss of memory and this is the natural consequence of the rapidly changing modern life. In this hustling and bustling time, many have lost their memory when still young. If you want to adapt yourself to the life, you have got to learn to lose memory. Forget who you are and where

you come from.”

(Zhang Xiaogang Interview with in

YangLan, Oriental TV Channel)

Society is progressing faster than Zhang Xiaogang expected, where the Chinese find it pretty necessary to learn to “forget” or rather “amnesia” has become a kind of instinct with the modern Chinese. Many have forgotten what this road looked like last year or the appearance of the building at the crossroads three months ago. While what Zhang Xiaogang tries to do in his “Landscape” series is to transform the individual awareness back to the social dimension. His “Landscape” is an effort to continue recalling the looks of the industrialized society and earlier. Zhang Xiaogang, a well-known figure in art circles, never neglects his attitude towards art. With his studio getting increasingly big, the artist, nevertheless, remains in his deep brooding over his simple and naive question: for what he paints. This personal feeling about art is explained in his later article on the painter Magritte: “Almost all the time of his growing up, an artist has to bear the pain of bidding farewell to those beloved masters and then comes to know some other predecessor for communication. On all the way along the artist keeps his continuous cognition and constant verification and at last those which are left to become “bosom friends” are fewer and fewer.” It is the very loneliness that urges the artist to seek for a comfortable manner for expressing his inner feelings. 我為什麼要幹這一行?我就覺得我真的喜 歡藝術,我能把握的就是這一點。你再學 也就是一個學生而已,而且你不在他的文 化範圍裡,所以你什麼都不是。我當時很 高興,覺得我能體會到這一點,一下覺得 我有根了。當時那個心態很真實,老想去 找,我到底是誰?我屬於哪裡?就想找這 個東西。後來又回到昆明去看老照片,看 自己小時候的照片,結果看到了父母年輕 時的照片,我突然發現在那種很私密的家 庭照片裡,你同樣能夠感受到社會對它的 影響。那些似乎是斑駁老照片中的人物,

王廣義 大批判系列─康寶湯罐 2000 油彩 畫布 200 x 175 cm 簽名 畫 背:f o r A n t h o n y a n d We n d y Wa ng Gu ang Yi 2000年 王廣義

王廣義作畫以政治普普風(起於1990年代 早期的藝術運動)為主,採用文革時期 的影像或標誌,展現對社會的諷刺與質 疑。經過十年的文化大革命,自1977年中 國開放之後,當代藝術大鳴大放,許多藝 術家採用前衛風格表達他們的當代想法與 個人風格。但是,政府並不接受這些藝術 創作,認為過於強調個人而且質疑現代生 活。1980年代期間,中國藝術界經歷一番 重整,藝術家聯合起來加入民主抗爭的行 列。直到1989年情況有所轉變,中國當局 准許在北京國家博物館舉辦第一屆官方前 衛藝術展,然而開幕當天卻有一位裝置藝 術家當眾開槍,展覽立即腰斬。 槍擊事件導致中國藝術界停下腳步,思考 未來的方向。但是,1989年6月天安門事 件爆發,接下來幾年社會聲音一片死寂。 藝術界似乎意識到開放性問題或質疑過 多,也可能導致一發不可收拾的狀況。 1990年代早期,當代藝術復甦,之前作品 內的滿天怨氣、憤怒與追尋煙消雲散,取 而代之的是一種非常中國式的嘲諷與幽 默。政治普普中最為著名的便是王廣義, 他的創作以諷刺為題,而其他創作方向, 例如玩世寫實主義則以幽默為主。在許多 方面,這種玩世不恭的嘲諷更能穿透東方 人的思維,但是政府卻無從反對他們使用 那些社會中備受尊崇的圖像。 「大批判系列」畫作中,王廣義結合文 革時期社會主義藝術海報圖像,和西方 消費主義的圖像象徵。毛澤東主義中強 壯、禁慾與理想主義的角色,包括軍人、

76

工人和農民,與西方消費主義的熟悉圖像 並列,更在西方主義的圖像上清楚畫上 「NO」。將滿腔熱血的革命圖像與鉅量 的消費主義符號放在一起,似乎充滿矛 盾,但是王廣義卻利用這些符號,傳達出 中國現在的掙扎,既要應付過往的問題, 又希望勇往直前。畫作似乎也表達出這兩 組符號其實都是危險的,但這只是粗淺的 解讀。有別於多數西方人,對許多中國人 而言,包括王廣義,文化革命並不是非黑 即白的史實,回首文革,許多中國人對這 段時期有種懷舊情感,儘管其中包含著恐 懼,但也是一段既無工作也無學校的簡單 日子。這是一種道地的中國情愫,許多事 情雖互相矛盾,卻又是能夠容忍的矛盾情 況。正如王廣義所說,他每天喝可口可 樂,但是可口可樂也是他最常使用的符號 之一。到底他是真心批評,或只是想激發 我們發出疑問呢?他的作品實在充滿象徵 意味。 表面上來說,王的風格可視為普普藝術, 有普普藝術大師沃荷和李奇登斯坦的風 格,將每天生活中的符號坦然以普普藝術 風格傳達出來。但是他的作品,自1990年 代開始在中國所產生的革命影響,與普普 畫家在1960年代美國所產生的無異。傳統 中國藝術非常保守且深具傳統色彩,偉大 的藝術通常來自於模仿前人,因此,採用 西方藝術家的畫風本身就是一種反動與前 衛大膽之舉。王廣義的畫作有別於西方普 普藝術家,他採用極具中國意味的複雜符 號,既令人熟悉,卻又代表全然不同的意 義。



《大批判系列─康寶湯罐》以軍人、工人 和礦工這三個文革時期最為強烈的禁慾角 色,也是毛澤東時期到處可見的政治宣傳 海報中,最為人熟悉的圖像。他們前眺未 來,但那是怎樣的未來呢?是西方的消費 主義嗎?工人以強力反抗的姿勢舉起右 臂,似乎在說:「N o」。軍人和礦工則 微笑著看著未來,那是處處可見康寶罐裝 番茄湯的世界,這正是王廣義作品中時時 可見的二分法。我們應該歡迎新世界的消 費主義或是徹底拒絕呢?答案絕不簡單, 正如同歷史事件沒有絕對的對與錯。礦工 握著一支大筆,取代原先政治宣傳海報中 的槍枝。畫作中再次蘊含如謎般的意義, 是文字的力量大於蠻力嗎?是否代表藝術 家可以運用文筆帶領我們找到真理呢?

塑造成中國年輕藝術家表達疑問、憂慮、 經驗的作品。「大批判系列」將現代寫實 主義帶進全新紀元,也成為中國後文革的 一大特色。

《大批判系列─康寶湯罐》畫作中以湯罐 的口味:「Tomato」(番茄)字樣,取代 了「大批判系列」當中慣有的「N o」。 當然,「Tomato」聲似「No」,這樣的 文字遊戲帶給觀眾一種會心的玩味。最重 要的是,工人的拳頭正好打在「Tomato」 字樣的第一個字母上。番茄對中國人來說 只是一樣水果,自然無法理解「番茄湯」 的意義。是否再一次傳達出反對西方文化 滲透呢? 「大批判系列」的所有畫作都以模板印 刷重複的數字覆蓋。1950年代,毛澤東推 行「大躍進」,曾經考慮以數字代替姓 名,並在許多地區試行,每一位工人的背 上曾經因此縫上數字,堪稱「去個人化」 之最。同時,消費主義國家也大量使用數 字:價格標示、銀行帳戶數字等。王廣義 似乎再一次發人深省地質問:「我們是否 接受以數字為我們分類呢?」 王廣義是1990年代新當代藝術發起時的主 導人物,他帶頭率先採用西方風格,將之

He said one is most blank and expressionless when laughing. Therefore, his repeated and continuous depiction of laughs is simply an attempt to imply the dull empty spirit world of the current generation which has lost its belief and value support. In this sense, laugh, a disguise of spiritual emptiness, is rather a real release and the only release when no other choice is available. The same exaggerating and even deformed image repeatedly depicted with strong and warm colors gives a powerful impact beyond words. the key turning point is one piece of a line of figures; lining up is a frequent and common phenomenon in our life and it suggests the observation of rules and conventions but usually also indicates a loss of a definite objective. I choose to depict the same figures with the same gestures and features just to expose the foolishness of such a line. Such an artistic means adopted for the depiction



of the same image lends the latter a visual sense of a cartoon character; it is a special story mocking human nature as its final purpose. I have found the social realistic story has more power than the experience of any concrete person for the latter is beyond identification to viewers.“Enchanted SpringLaughing is a kind of trap for sureI just want to hide all negative moods and feelings behind the laughing‘It’ comes alone sometimes and shows up in a group at other times. ‘It’ laughs with mouth wide open, eyes tightly closed and exaggerated gestures but with significant self-confidence at the same time. ‘It’ always turns up on some occasion and these occasions are all but the space and background of the survival and development of Chinese culture in the past decade, some of which is either related to the living status, the history of growth or the relationship between oriental and occidental cultures, gender and even the economic and political (violent) events with the current of globalization. And all these occasions seem to be transformed into one after another game with the exaggeration of the “self-image”. “I” seem not to grow up here but happen to be here. The idolized “self-image”, with its concrete and amplified image, has found a culturelike property on the globalization stage.His artistic creation carries a significant hightune narrative ideal: loosen imagination and devoted to the self; he questions realistic survival in a sarcastic tone and interprets the nature of existence in an absurd manner, which lends to his works a seemingly contradictory property: both listless and agility, absurd and realistic, messy and orderly. It offers the viewer by no means a pleasant experience, however, when we focus our eyes and hearts on each seemingly absurd image and absorb our minds in the irony, the exaggerating and dramatic dialogue of

82

each picture, we can, anyway, feel vividly the weirdness of human nature, the absurdness of human survival and the questioning of living status by the artist. Instead of simply deleting or removing the mark of individualism or strengthening the mechanical indifference of modern times, Yue Minjun repeats his attempts to display the self-image in the graphic picture to indicate that all the worries and disappointments resulting from our pursuance for everlasting and profound mode has been transformed into shallow graphics. It impresses viewers that the value and significance of life is gradually lost in the games and mechanical operations. Perhaps new arts were just born in an uncertain status but in an artistic manner by the artists who are sensitive to the time and keep abreast with the time. More than mere observers of a certain cultural scene, they are the participants to help explore and expand its possibilities. 岳敏君的玩世現實主義藝術風格,自90年 代即享譽國內外。他的作品多為畫家自己 的自畫像,張著大嘴傻笑,做出各種怪異 的動作,表達了一種自嘲、慵懶和百無聊 賴的生活狀態。畫面形象處理簡單,色彩 豔俗。由於他多年來不斷地重複個人自畫 像創作,所以兼有波普和招貼藝術的強烈 符號性和簡潔的視覺力量。「他說人在笑 的時候最空洞最無情。所以,他重複的畫 笑,也是想表現喪失信仰,沒有任何價值 支撐的這一代人其精神世界的無聊空虛。 笑,毋寧說是一種內心空虛的掩飾,倒不 如說就是一種之下真實的釋放。他通過強 烈的色彩和誇張的造型重複地描繪一個形 象,對觀眾的視覺產生強大的衝擊。」 (參閱呂澎編,《中國當代藝術史》) 岳敏君的早期作品並沒有形成明顯的個性 化身份特徵,個人的藝術語言正處在一個 相對含混的過渡時期,表現物件多是自己

周圍的朋友,具有一定的精神追求和不 甘平庸的藝術家夥伴。難得的是,岳敏君 在這一群人當中,找到共同的東西並在畫 面中高度概括地提煉,並將它抽離出來。 他不自覺地在畫面中留有時代烙印,「天 安門」、「金水橋」、「紅燈籠」、「紅 牆」等等,與前景中特寫的人的毫無所 謂、無所事事、激動而滑稽的情緒形成鮮 明的對比,消解了傳統對於崇高、偉大、 輝煌等這些強勢的、控制的形容體會。面 對生活中可能遇見的障礙和險阻,人的情 緒可以表現為一種愉快的、自信的、甚至 沒心沒肺,哪怕險象環生。自我形象的複 製和重複,其觀念的背景支撐來自於所謂 的現代化工業文明的特徵。人們的現行生 活秩序,把商品、建築、宣傳媒介納入一 定的格式當中,而人的存在和社會角色賦 予,也是被一個時代所規劃好了的,屬於 一種機械的重複和荒誕的產物。 從「面孔集中營」到概括性的提煉,岳敏 君刪繁就簡,在無意識形態的時代,毅然 樹立起自我的形象旗幟。1993年,岳敏君 「自我形象」的符號終於真正意義上完整 地浮出水面:光鮮的頭型,占了整張臉的 二分之一的嘻哈大嘴,因為笑得太厲害, 幾乎可以看到滿嘴細小的白牙;顴骨因為 笑變得高高突起,眼睛也笑得眯成了一條 縫兒。商業廣告般鮮豔的粉色面孔,概括 化的五官。圖式誇張直觀,廣告般單純、 平面、光豔,具有極強的形式感。這些自 由的、獨立的、嘲諷的、快樂的、不加掩 飾地、強調自我意識存在的藝術形象一經 出現,就排山倒海般湧現。 對於早期「自我形象」藝術家這樣理解: 「重要的轉捩點是我的一張畫了一排人物 的作品;排隊的形式在我們的社會生活中 極為常見。表現得遵規守矩,然而通常 缺乏確信的目標。就這樣,我選擇描繪同 樣的人物,同樣的姿勢和特徵,來強調這 種行列的愚蠢。以這樣的方式來運用同一 形象使得他們具有卡通人物的觀感;嘲諷


人性以講述一個特別的故事。我發現這種 關於社會現實的故事要比具體人物的經歷 更有力量,後者對於觀眾而言是無法識別 的。」此幅創作於1994至1995年的《醉人 春光》是岳敏君早期作品中深具原創性的 佳作,並成為了岳敏君往後藝術創作上, 不可抹滅的重要里程碑。 岳敏君的「自我形象」創造是一場諷刺 「崇高」的合理性、泯滅「俗常」的不可 言說經驗革命的開始,把自己邊緣於尊重 和被尊重,教化和被教化的門檻之外,轉 變為天馬行空的自我實現,遠離一切所謂 的約定俗成。「大笑當然是一種陷阱。」 他說,「我想把負面的情緒都隱藏在笑的 背後。」藝術評論人冷林對岳敏君的「自 我形象」評述說:「『它』有時獨立出 現,有時又以集體的面目亮相。『它』開 口大笑,緊閉雙眼,動作誇張,但卻充滿 自信。『它』總出現在某種場合中。這些 場合是可以說是十年來中國文化發展與爭 鬥的空間和背景,其中有關於生存狀態 的、關於成長歷史的、關於東西方文化關 係的、關於男女性別的、關於全球化下的 經濟和政治(暴力)事件的。但所有這些 場合都在這種『自我形象』 的放大誇張 下變成了一場場的遊戲,『我』好像不是 成長在這樣的一個環境裡,而是恰巧出現 在這裡。……偶像化的『自我』以一種具 體的放大了的形象在全球化的舞臺裡找到 了某種類和文化的屬性,這既可以看作是 中國藝術家在全球化過程中最初和最直接 的自我定位。」 自從締造出自我偶像式圖像,岳敏君對自 己不斷地肯定,然後合理地加以否定,逐 漸接近成功的探索過程。單個人物形象的 複製重組,卡通主題般的呈現,是關於 庸眾意識和從眾心理的反諷表露,表現人 面對現實困境,內心不自覺生發的麻木、 無知、愚蠢、但絕不是惟命是從、任人擺 佈。岳敏君借助社會主義宣傳畫和消費主 義時代的商業廣告的話語方式,一直尋找 人的多種生存、生活體驗,不斷開拓想像 空間,從社會時代圖式逐漸到自然圖式,


84


再恢復到人文關係的關注點上,甚至還在 宗教哲學的問題上思考前進了一大步。藝 術評論人馮博一有過恰好的表述:「他的 藝術創作有著一種張揚的敘事理想:放縱 想像,沉醉自我,以嘲諷的語調質疑現 實的生存,以荒謬的形式突現存在的本 質。這使得作品既虛泛又靈動,既荒誕不 經又直指現實,既零亂無序又佈局嚴謹。 它使得我們的觀看不可能獲得整體上的輕 鬆和愉悅,但是,當我們沉浸於每一個看 似荒謬的畫面場景,沉浸於每一幅類似於 冷嘲、誇張、反諷、戲謔的對話之中,我 們又可以非常鮮活地感受到某種人性的乖 張,生存的悖謬,以及話語中洋溢出來的 創作主體的質疑心態……岳敏君不是單純 地抽離或剔除了個人性的痕跡,或簡單地 強化了現代化的機械性冷漠,而是將自身 的形象反覆地、平面化地呈現在畫面中, 意味著人們對永恆、深度模式的追尋所形 成的焦慮和失望被幻化成消解式的無深 度的膚淺平面。彷彿一切無需選擇、無 需確定,生命的價值和意義消泯於遊戲和 操作之中。新的藝術或許就在這種不確定 的形態中產生,它是通過敏感到當代性和 順應時代潮流的藝術家以藝術的轉化方式 來完成的,他們不僅是對某一文化景觀的 觀察者,更成為幫助擴展其可能性的參與 者。」

Among many Chinese artists, Zeng Fanzhi stands out for his unique visual language, and more importantly, for his works that redefine many possibilities of Chinese contemporary art. Zeng has had a colorful life experience. He has been a brand spokesman for Swiss

luxurious watches, and an artist whose name appears frequently in fashion magazines. In the Chinese art community, Zeng is maybe the most famous artist who frequently participates in charitable activities. Three years ago, when few artists participated in charitable activities, he became the first Chinese artist who donated a big oil painting of 1.7m for a charitable event. In the eye of Li Xianting, “the art critic who first discovered Zeng’s artistic talents, Zeng is a cautious man. For Zeng Fanzhi, fashion, brands, status and public image are all his masks to create a distance with society and a means to protect his sensitive inner frailty and sensitivity like a wall. Maybe Zeng inherently has a double character. Even

86

when he is devotedly painting his works, he still maintains a very clean appearance and environment. Zeng is a very mature artist in every aspect of life, whether in work or dealing with interpersonal relationships.” In Zeng’s eye, among the many possibilities of art, the most import one is to consistently challenge oneself, to reinvent oneself all the time, and to seek new possibilities of artistic expression. Zeng is among a few Chinese contemporary artists who frequently alter their works and style to seek transcendence over their early works that won their fame and fortune. To date Zeng has experienced several transformations in his art career. He has created four series of mature works, namely “Hospital Series”, “Mask Series”, “After Mask Series”, and “Chaos Series”. Lorand Hegyi, an art historian, summarizes the artistic style of Zeng Fanzhi as follows: “Zeng’s works invoke a sense of constant, unending evolution and transformation without foreseeable results. This makes them exhilarating and exciting, suggestive of hidden, complex stories that could be continued in all possible directions, so that the painting becomes an adventure, its surface a map for an expedition into terra incognita. By adventure I mean the humorous, vivid, spontaneous unfolding of unforeseen events within the composition of the painting.” (Zeng Fanzhi’s Idealism, Singapore Art Museum, p. 76)

The “Mask Series” consisting of about 100 paintings created in 1994 are Zeng’s



most famous works. At the beginning, his personal experience of seeing his friends and teachers become one against another and the fickleness of human nature inspired him to paint a portrait of a man with a mask. During 1994-1997, the fundamental undertone in his early “Mask Series” is perplexed, lost and distressed. In these works, we can see through the masks worn by the people to feel their expression under the mask. Karen Smith, a writer and curator of art exhibitions, presents the following commentary on Zeng’s works in this period: “Through ten years of painting, Zeng Fanzhi has offered his audience nothing but exclusion. The viewer is perennially excluded because physically we are on the far side of the mask and outside the immediate action being beyond the picture plane. Equally, the figures he paints are excluded from the world we inhabit because they are trapped inside the mask, within the picture plane and ultimately engulfed by their own fear or paranoia. It is visible within the eyes - so cleverly contradicted by the blankness yet unequivocally marked out by their bull's eye centers. In searching through that ‘window’ for the soul, we find only the abyss of people who have sacrificed emotional life for public conformity.” (All that Meets the Eye: Zeng Fanzhi’s Art, 1991-2003, I· We, Hubei Fine Arts Press, p. 13)

After 1999, several styles simultaneously appeared in Zeng’s works, including his series of portraits without masks, in which the half body of the people who have strange hairstyles and are more appalled and lost without masks is dominated on the canvas, without any background. Though Zeng is an artist who frequently alters his artistic styles, he also said he will never give up painting figures. In 2000, Zeng began to create some abstract paintings. With wild strokes he

88

changed his cautious and delicate style in his “Mask Series”. Later as his right hand was injured in an accident, he had to use his left hand to paint. This experience helped him create a new chaos style characterized by outer “disorder and inner rhythm, ‘like a symphony’”. In his recent solo exhibition called “Taiping Youxiang” held in ShanghART Gallery, Beijing, many of his works that combine landscape and figures, typically reflect the style of his “Chaos Series”. Robert C. Morgan, an art critic, gives the following commentary on Zeng’s works: “In Zeng’s paintings, I sense a certain resistance to the history and values of his past as a way of coming to terms with the validity of the present. His paintings are not only representations, but a reconstitution of memory within the historical present. Some critics believe that Zeng’s work has emerged out of Socialist Realism and that the traces of that era are connected to his expressionist approach to the figure over the past decade. This may well be the case. But in order to understand the present, the artist cannot escape memory. The manner in which Zeng applies paint to canvas in order to capture the figure or a group of figures is always understated, but always forceful. They may be personages with whom he has shared friendship or simply moments of deep mutual understanding.” (Zeng Fanzhi - The Trauma of the Soul, I· We, Hubei Fine Arts Press, p. 13)

在中國的藝術家中,曾梵志的特別不僅僅 呈現在他與眾不同的繪畫語言上,他重新 定義了中國當代藝術的很多可能。他曾經 為瑞士名錶形象代言,是最受時尚雜誌追 寵的藝術家,同時也是最熱衷參與慈善活 動的藝術家。3年前,他是第一位捐出1米 7的大畫的藝術家,當時在中國參與慈善 活動的人還很少。


而在他的伯樂栗憲庭看來,「曾梵志是一 個小心翼翼的人,時尚和名牌、品位和形 象,都是他和社會之間的面具,像一堵牆 保護著他內心的脆弱和敏感,或者他性格 本身就是兩面的。就像他畫畫的時候,不 管畫得多麼淋漓盡興,身上地上總是乾乾 淨淨。他是很成熟的藝術家了,無論是畫 畫、做人還是應對這個社會。」 在諸多可能中,藝術家曾梵志最看重的一 點—永遠不斷挑戰自己,改變畫風,尋找 可能。他是不多的當代藝術家中,不局限 於早期的成名系列,依靠每一次的新方 向,吸引到更多尊重跟喜愛的藝術家。 曾梵志的藝術創作中曾經歷過幾次轉型, 「醫院」、 「面具」、「面具之後」、 「亂筆」四個成熟系列。藝術史學家羅 蘭.赫儀這樣總結曾梵志的風格:「他的 畫給觀賞者一種畫面不斷在進化和轉變的 感覺,而這種變化又是極其奧妙無窮、難 以捉摸的;這種多變的視覺氛圍令觀賞 者感到振奮,刺激觀賞者去想像那當中 隱藏著的無限玄機;那個天地裡似乎蘊涵 著說不盡的故事,向四面八方延伸出去。 就因為這樣,畫面就像一塊探險地域的導 向探險地圖,引導觀者進入神秘的、未知 的領域。我的所謂探險地,指的是在畫面 構圖裡面揭示出的幽默、生動而自然的內 蘊。」 (《曾梵志理想主義》,新加坡美術館,頁76)

「面具」是曾梵志最有名的系列作品。 這一系列大約有100幅左右,創作於1994 年,開始的根源來自於故友師長的反目, 人世冷暖的煎熬,促使他畫了一張戴面具 的人像。1994年至1997年,他早期表現面 具的繪畫作品中體現的氛圍煩亂、迷茫, 不知所措。儘管是些帶著面具的人物,依 然能感受到面具後的表情。 作家,策展人凱倫.史密斯評價這一時期 的作品時總結說:「在從事繪畫創作的十 年間,曾梵志給他的觀眾提供的沒有別 的,只有排拒感,觀眾永遠被排除在外, 因為從身體上講,我們是站在這些面具的

遠處,也是在畫面背後的直接活動之外。 同樣的,他所繪製的人物也被排除在我們 所居住的世界之外,因為它們被限制在 面具裡面,在畫面之中,最終被它們自己 的恐懼或偏執所吞沒。這是眼目所及的— 因為空虛而清楚地呈現出矛盾,然而又毫 無含混地透過它們巨大的眼珠表現出來。 在透過靈魂的『視窗』來搜索的時候,我 們只能發現人所處的無底深淵,他們為了 公眾的一致性而犧牲了情感的生命。」 (《目光所及:曾梵志的藝術1991-2003》,《我.我 們》,湖北美術出版社,頁13)

1999年之後,曾梵志開始幾種風格同時出 現在其作品中,包括除去面具的「肖像」 系列,半身人物孤立無援,突出在沒有背 景的畫布上,頭髮邊緣被刮刀處理成衝冠 怒髮,以及剝去面具後更明顯的驚恐和迷 失。曾梵志曾表示,人物是其永遠不會放 棄的題材。儘管他是少之又少地敢於屢次 打破自己固有風格的藝術家之一。 到了2000年,曾梵志的畫面中開始出現純 粹抽象的類型。他開始用狂亂的線條改變 面具時代的謹慎和精緻。後來一次意外的 右手受傷,不得不用左手作畫的經歷,卻 獲得了「交響樂」一樣的看似無序,實則 有節奏的「亂筆」風格。在最近一次香格 納北京舉辦的「太平有象」的個展上,亂 筆風景和人物的結合,是此系列的典型風 格。 藝術批評家羅伯.C.摩根認為,「在曾 梵志的作品中,我感覺到一種對其過去 歷程和價值觀的反抗,作為遵從於當前合 法性的手段。他的作品不僅僅說回憶的體 現,而是回憶在歷史性現在中的重組。一 些批評家認為,曾梵志的作品已經脫離了 社會現實主義,他在過去十年中對於人物 的表現主義手法是與那個時代相關的。這 也不無道理。但是,為了理解現在,畫家 不能逃避回憶。曾梵志在畫布上抓住人物 神韻的風格簡樸而有力。這些畫中人物可 能是他的朋友,或只是僅僅有剎那間的情 感共鳴。」 (「曾梵志:靈魂的創傷」,《我. 我們》,湖北美術出版社,頁1)

“As a Chinese artist, the ideological education of socialism not only is reflected in our life, but also has profound influence on our artistic creation. As a new generation that has grown up under socialist ideological education, the artistic method of socialist realism is both the beginning of our selfexpression and the starting point of our artistic prospects. This is an undeniable fact. But what is more important are the tremendous changes we underwent during the reform and opening-up and in our political ideas in the past 20 years. Living at the transitional stage of China, we’re experiencing tremendous social reforms that are beyond the understanding of others; this is the environment of our life and the object of our expression. If there is any energy and vigor in our art, then this is the real source of it.” (Quoted from Painting Collection of Zhou Chunya, Zeng Fanzhi, and Ji Dachun.)

Temporary, fluid, and unfixed visual status, this is the most important and most special element of the painting art of Zeng Fanzhi. His smooth and handsome brush, sometimes concentrating, sometimes dispersing, sometimes extensive, and sometimes intensive, creates endlessly the new image portfolios under the remarkable collaboration of light and shadow and tells new stories. Whether a landscape, a human figure, or a face, they may all be distorted by the painter slightly so that his paintings have an extended grandeur, as if the painting is unfolding and narrating a majestic epic poem.

Using brief and clear brushes, he depicts the hypocrisy of man and exaggerates characters’ facial expressions through hard border lines. This series has brought for him both success and irritation: he’s often referred to simply as a “mask painter”. “Such labeling makes me uncomfortable. I hope that when the audience looks at something that’s created out of the depth of the artist’s heart, he’ll see it more than a label or a name; neither do I want others to think that I’ve already set up my own style. So I must break through.” He makes up his mind and decides to seek the breakthrough. “Amidst the historical reforms and artistic expressions, what we choose is the reality that’s confronting us and the feeling that reality has brought to us. This is the essence of our education and the weapon through which we can surpass the education that we’ve received. It is the special social background and ideology of China that has enriched the creation of artists. More and more artists are turning their eye to the society and to politics. Other artists, however, are more concerned about the life experiences of an ordinary person. Perhaps the former better indicates the existence of China or Modern Art of China; but for me, I’m more of the latter, for I am more concerned about the life and experience of man. The natural exposure of the thoughts and emotions of modern people may be more important than the intentional Chinese icons and Chinese methods.” (Quoted from Painting Collection of Zhou Chunya, Zeng Fanzhi, and Ji Dachun.)

From 1994, when he first came to Beijing, to 2001, Zeng Fanzhi has always been engaged in the creation of the “Mask Series”.

From the late 1990s, new paintings show up in different appearances. Compared with



previous paintings, their greatest difference lies in that the new paintings are the products under the influence of post-modernism; in a wider conceptual field, painters regain the freedom of painting and are no longer anxious about the material itself, for the legitimacy of the material itself can be supported by a postmodernistic stand; as a result, the painters have retrieved their power of liveliness, influence, fun, painting, and literary nature, re-constructing the dignity of painting. And in such a reconstruction, the stories of feelings by Zeng Fanzhi play a transitional role. Zeng Fanzhi gets his inspiration for “Sky Series” from his childhood. According to the painter, he would always have a remarkable fantasy when he looked up into the sky in his childhood and such fantasy has accompanied him through the years; even by now, he could still hear its voice and smell its flavor. The broadness of the sky always intrigues infinite imagination of human beings; and when combined with time, it becomes a meaningful object image. Created in 2005, “Red Cloud” has the main object of a young man, smoking a cigarette, his head lowered and his hands in his pockets. Putting the character into the scene, the painter seems to believe with instinct that man is part of nature. From his facial expression can be seen his confusion and puzzlement; the three-dimensional texture of the character invokes imagination and enables us to detect and explore the tension hidden in the heart of the painter. In “Red Cloud”, the rhythm of the lines is merged into the abstraction; the painter uses his painting brush as adeptly as he does chopsticks, endowing the lines with a smooth fluidity. The floating and dancing calligraphic “symbol” is a version of the traditional cursive script, focusing on the abstract with practical details as the bases. Rational and non-rational intertwine in the painting, like the wrestling between

92


a synthetic image and an abstract image. Not confined by any rules or predefined logic, Zeng Fanzhi keeps the integrity of his creative process and the result avoids the repetitiveness of painting, and constructs a new language through the wonderful effect of the destined and the accidental, i.e., between intentional and unconscious, artificial and natural. This is a new artistic method theory. His paintings resort to the abstractness of calligraphy and the meaningfulness of Zen. Such a painting style is clear, pure, and simple, precisely reflecting his abstract artistic language; and the scenery with freedom, vigor, and musical fluidity combinees features smooth and free brushing and is an emotional expression of reality.

「作為一個中國藝術家,社會主義的思想 教育不僅體現在我們的生活中同時也深深 的影響了我們的藝術創作。我們是接受社 會主義思想教育成長下的一代新人,社會 主義現實主義的藝術方式是我們自我表達 的開始,也是我們展望藝術未來的起點。 這是一個無法回避的事實。但是更重要的 是我們在過去20年間經歷了改革開放與 政治思想上的巨大變化。我們生活在一個 轉型期的中國,經歷著別人所無法體會的 巨大社會變革,這是我們生活的環境也是 我們表現的物件。如果說我們的藝術有什 麼能量和活力的話,那麼這才是真正的根 源。」 (參閱《周春芽.曾梵志.季大純》畫冊)

短暫的、流動的、不定型的視覺狀態正是 曾梵志繪畫藝術最為重要、最為特殊的一 個因素。他瀟灑流暢的筆觸,時而聚,時 而散,時而疏,時而密,在巧妙的光影配 合之下, 永無休止地在畫面上創造新的 形象組合,講敘新的故事。不管眼前呈現 的是一段風景或一個人體或肖像,畫家都 能半虛半實地把他們變形。因此他的畫有 一種不斷延伸的氣派,就像作家在展開、 鋪陳一篇壯闊的史詩。

從1994年來到北京,一直到2001年,曾梵 志一直是在從事著「面具」系列油畫的創 作。他以簡練明瞭的筆調描繪了人的虛偽 性,以硬朗的邊緣線條誇張了人物的面 部表情。這一系列作品給曾梵志帶來了成 功,也為他帶來了苦惱,他經常被簡單地 概括為「面具畫家」。「我覺得這種標籤 式的稱謂讓我非常不舒服。我希望別人 看一個藝術家內心的東西,而不僅僅是一 個標籤,一個稱謂,我更不希望讓人覺得 我已經形成一種風格了,所以我一定要突 破。」他曾暗暗下定決心,尋求突破。

從90年代後期開始,新繪畫以不同的面貌 表現出來。與之前的繪畫最為明顯的區別 是,新繪畫是後現代主義影響下的產物, 在一個更為寬廣的觀念領域,畫家重新獲 得了繪畫的自由,畫家不再為材料本身感 到焦慮,因為材料本身的合法性在後現代 立場中就能夠找到依據,畫家重新收回了 生動、感染、趣味、繪畫性甚至文學性的 權力,這樣的結果是,他們重新建立了繪 畫的尊嚴。在這樣一個重建的過程中,曾 梵志「心緒」的故事構成了承上啟下的環 節。 「天空」系列的靈感源於曾梵志的童年, 據曾梵志所說,童年時仰望天空總能產生 一種奇妙的幻想,這種幻想長久地留在自 己走過的歲月裡,直到現在仍然聽見它的 聲音,聞到它的氣味。天空的廣闊讓人類 有無限遐想,和時間結合起來,就變成了 耐人深思的物象。《紅雲》作於2005年, 畫面的主體是一個青年,燃著煙支低著 頭,手插在口袋裡,畫家將人物放進風景 中,他似乎本能地認為人是自然的一部 分。從面部表情可以看出他的迷茫,人物 充滿立體感引發想像力,讓我們窺探到畫 家內心世界隱藏的緊張情緒。

「在歷史的變革和藝術的表達之中,我們 選擇的是直面社會的現實和現實所賦予我 們的感受。這是我們所受的教育的根本, 也是我們超越我們所受的教育的武器。正 是中國特殊的社會背景與意識形態豐富了 藝術家的創作。越來越多的藝術家關注社 會,關注政治方面的問題;另一部分藝術 家則更關注作為普遍的人的生存體驗。也 許前者更能提示一個「中國」或者「中國 當代藝術」的存在,但是對於我自己的作 品來說,我更傾向於後者,更關注人的生 存體驗。在我的創作中現代人思想與情感 的自然流露,或許比那些刻意的中國符號 和中國方式更重要。」 (參閱《周春芽.曾梵志.季大純》畫冊)

《紅雲》中線條的韻律被融入抽象性之 中,畫家使用油畫筆就像使用筷子一樣熟 練,線條帶有滑動的感覺。流動飛舞的書 寫性「筆劃符號」是傳統草書的解體,雖 以抽象為主體,然而都是以真實的細部為 前提的。繪畫中交織著的理性和非理性, 也是一種具象與抽象之間的角鬥。曾梵志 不拘泥於任何規矩或既定的邏輯,但他又 保持了創作的過程和結果的整體性,並排 斥了繪畫的重複性,使預設性與偶然性導 致的奇異效果,即在有意與無意、人工與 自然之間建構了一種新的語言,這是一種 新的藝術方法論。他的繪畫借用了書法抽 象性,也參合了「禪」的意味,這一繪畫 風格的清晰、單純、質樸正表明了其抽象 性的藝術語言,集自由度、力度和音樂流 動性於一體的特徵中的景物用筆自由,筆 觸清晰,是對於現實的一種情緒的表達。

Old age and death can never scare me. As long as I can hold the brush and paint the cloth, nothing will scare me. My only hope is to complete the painting on hand and this painting is braver and more liberal than the last one.趙無 極生於書香世家,6歲時便開始學習書法,書法為他 造就了與西方畫家不同的基礎,使他的手更靈活,視 點也更開放。在父親和叔父的薰陶與支持下,逐漸激 發起成為畫家的夢想。正是因為趙無極懷著藝術的夢 想,在全家人的送行下,他走向了巴黎。從50年代開 始,趙無極便開始活躍在巴黎畫壇,並在法國畫壇佔 據了一席之地。他所享有的國際藝術界給予的眾多榮 譽和尊敬,也是中國藝術的光榮與驕傲。 他的藝術鋒芒咄咄逼人,這正符合了戰後 歐洲畫壇重新復甦的探險熱潮;他在藝術 上充滿了感性,這也正與法國藝術整體 中那種熱烈與典雅的趣味相吻合。法國人 首先在感覺上接受了他的藝術,而整個西 方畫壇則從藝術史的邏輯中承認了他的藝 術。他的藝術智慧充沛深厚,這使他在幾 十年裡不斷推進和完善自己的風格,並且 不斷的提升著每個階段的境界。 趙無極在國立杭州藝專學習時,吳大羽和 潘天壽任他的老師,潘天壽經常要他臨摹 古畫,他不喜歡,就不用心畫,想方設 法蹺課,甚至有時從教室的窗子跳出去, 氣得老師要開除他,最後還是校長林風眠 把他留了下來。他不願意接受傳統中國畫 的觀念,認為中國繪畫從16世紀起就已經 失去了創造力,只會抄襲漢朝和宋朝創立 的偉大傳統,在重複和臨摹間停滯不前。 趙無極的成就受益於林風眠的指教。他從 林風眠那裡學習到的並不是具體的繪畫技

巧,而是林風眠敢於創新、追求藝術自由 境界的精神。從他早期的作品便可以看 出,他是一位有著天賦素質的畫家,在作 品中無遮無攔地表現出自己的感覺,不受 學院派寫實技巧的束縛,而且懷著對自由 抒發胸臆的夢想。 趙無極在海外面對的是西方抽象繪畫的浪 潮,他從表現性的具象繪畫開始,逐漸發 展成符號化的意象繪畫,再進而發展成表 現性的抽象繪畫,在畫風確立的同時,他 的藝術境界也越來越大。西方抽象繪畫做 的是畫布上的形式營構,趙無極則從關於 自然的憧憬與感受中提升為抽象語言,這 就拉開了與西方抽象繪畫的距離。他的盛 期作品已成為一個完全抽象的形式世界, 但同時又是一個充滿生命律動的自然世 界,讓人產生許多映射了審美聯想般的幻 覺,從畫中可以看到變化的廣袤自然。這 是以東方傳統為根基的抽象形態繪畫,也 是中西藝術在精神上的交融。 從1958年的作品《雲》之後,他的作品不 再有標題,而是僅僅在畫布上註明此件 作品的創作時間。此時,創作對趙無極來 說,完全是情感的宣洩,他擺脫了一切法 則的束縛,肆意揮灑著他的自由,以各種 創新組合的方式表達出內心的感受。 1950年代後,趙無極的創作歷程先後出現 了兩個階段:第一個階段是60年代和70年 代早期,此時期作品多以黑色和褐色等暗 色為基調,強烈的筆觸充滿了力度,使得 畫面極富有運動感;第二個階段是70年代 中期以後,趙無極此時期的油畫技巧日漸 成熟,色彩開始變得豔麗明亮,畫面也更


131


注重於對空間和光線的追求,蘊含了囊括 天地萬物的大自然要素,和之前的作品相 比,更具有風景的意味,氣氛也越來越平 靜。 此幅作品《22.3.79》正是趙無極第二個階 段完成的作品。畫面中除了遠近空間的層 次感外,還充滿了光線和相關的色彩。在 這幅作品中以鮮亮的黃色為主體,褐色和 黑色參差交錯,充斥著整個畫面,強烈的 光線感散發出金銅般神聖的光芒,賦有質 感而細膩的線條揮灑自如,渾于自然。通 過作品《22.3.79》,可以清楚的看出趙無 極在「空間」和「光」的融合運用上的造 詣,而且色彩的運用也呈現出奇麗幻變的 景象。 直到現在,趙無極還孜孜不倦的進行著創 作,他說:「我不怕老去,也不怕死亡, 只要我還能拿畫筆、塗顏料,我就一無所 懼,我只希望能有足夠的時間完成手上的 畫,要比上一幅更大膽、更自由。」

“Nature will forever remain my mother.” Chu Teh-chun once told his friends. Mother Nature has always been the muse for all artists of Chinese brush painting or Western landscape painting. Paradoxically, while the artistry of the two schools may be similar, it is also different. The creation of an unique artistic style is the goal pursued by most artists, and Chu is well on his way toward achieving this distinction. In the 1950s, Chu often sketched the mountains in Central Taiwan and the artistic bravura of Chu's ink-wash landscape imagery evokes these earlier experiences. He combines the abstract aestheticism of the poet Wang Wei from the Tang Dynasty, incarnated as “Poetry in Painting and Painting in Poetry”. Landscape used to be the background of a tableau in the history of painting, before the British watercolor master William Turner and the pioneers of Impressionism, Eugène Boudin and Claude Monet started capturing the nebulous changes on canvas. They enriched the content of paintings and yet nature still retained a subordinate role in such paintings. The work of nature charged with the force of nature itself, the ultimate source of Chu’s abstraction, lead us to the recognition that he is a bridge between the rich history of Chinese aesthetics and the world of advanced Modernism. Nevertheless, the power of brush and coloring effects both embody the charms

of nature, so that the landscape has finally come to play the leading role on the canvas. In 1985 he once flew over the Alps and when he saw the snowy scenery, the poetry of Li Po and Tu Fu suddenly appeared in his mind. The mysterious and atmospheric beauty of nature inspired him and new abstract ideas lead us to his famous and poetic “Snow Scenes Series” created from 1985 to 1989. Landscape should not only entail types of scenery, but also the feelings related to nature that viewers should have as they become immersed in, and part of, the painting contents. The richly textured composition fleshed out the atmosphere; as



Chu said, “My landscape is an experience in nature; not a duplicate of nature”. This is a splendid response to the classical Greek view of art as “mimesis” or imitation of nature. Viewers should be inspired by the images of nature in the paintings. His work unequivocally resonates with Taoist thoughts; the free imagination conveys his sublime passion in the synthesis of the concrete and the abstract.

forêt blanche”, “Temps d’hiver”, “Présence hivernale”and this “Cold” all large-scale paintings. A solo exhibition was held by the Taipei National Museum of History in the same year; 32 years had passed after his departure from Taiwan. Exhibitions were also held in different art galleries. As one of the important artists of France, he was invited to participate in Panorama de l’Ecole Française Contemporaine in Israel.

Chu was well trained by Pan Tian Shou, the contemporary master artist from Hangzhou National Academy of Art. As his direct disciple, Chu specialized in Chinese brush paintings for landscape, flowers/birds, poetry, calligraphy and seal cutting. He loves poems and is a great calligrapher. Chinese characters are artistic abstractions and provide inspiration to western abstract artists. His talent for poetry and brush painting lead us to his use of vivid and dramatic strokes, in a kind of marriage of the visual and the powerful, form and effect.

When he was in Taiwan for an art forum in 1986, his inspiration was derived from Chinese paintings in the Song Dynasty. He had his student Sung Lung-fei ask for the approval of Chin Hsiao-yi, director of the National Palace Museum to view the grandeur of such masterpieces as: “Travelers among Mountains and Stream” by Fan Kuan, “Early Spring” by Kuo His and “Wind in Pines among a Myriad Valleys” by Li Tang; he was accompanied by his classmate Li Lin-tsan from Hangzhou National Art College.

Chu recalled, “… after staying in Paris for awhile, I started missing Chinese paintings and calligraphy which may be the pioneers of the abstract. The concept is quite similar. Format is not required but rather similarity. Literary arts always focus on scenery and the diversity of wash-ink. However, the aesthetic factors are what the artist of abstraction is looking for, i.e. lines, colors and compositions. The landscape portrayed in Chinese paintings is no longer merely the landscape portrayed in reality; the distance between the actuality and the imagination is the realm of the abstraction. Chinese people do not speak of abstraction but rather paint the abstraction.”

With its free style brush strokes, pieces and dots being dimly visible, noises all around bouncing through space, sleek lines falling and forming into nets, it all nestles into a silverish grey world. Painting according to his whims and desires, the painter painted diversified, varied, surreal, dreams, happiness and anger looming......, this all equates to the luck and sorrow in one's life experience, a gauze that breaks through the

innermost feelings, showcasing path and marks in the author's long artistic life. A further example of the concept of running and cursive script calligraphy is seen in this “Froidure”. By employing automatism, to capture the unconscious or instinctive forces, a certain dramatic vigor appeared on his canvas. The variety of calligraphy is like the capricious nature of abstraction itself. The description of the heading will not confine the unrestrained imagination of the viewers. “Froidure” in French means “cold”, an ancient name of winter. The confident strokes of the artist are flying freely, like the snow itself, in the silvergrey world. His work is rendered with great harmony and rhythm, more traditionally associated with poetry and music. Rapidly executed lines and robust brushstrokes combine to form a style that is hyperbolic and at the same time lyrical. The play of light and dark, the resulting spacious atmosphere, the pronounced horizontality of the painting and the winter landscape imagery reflect a bravura that only powerful art evokes. His paintings combine the essence of Chinese aesthetics handed down through generations with abstract concepts. Simplified pictorial elements, smooth flowing lines and bold color schemes together create an irresistible aesthetic impact and endless visual tension. His work is a recreated, or resurrected, painting of Fan Kuan.

「大自然是我創作的源泉之母。」朱德群 如此對他的朋友訴說著。無論是中國山水 畫文人,或是近代西方風景畫家,創作時 所欲師法之對象多來自大自然。師法自 然,和而不同,推陳出新,開創出自我風 格的繪畫語言,當是多數藝術家亟欲追尋 的方向,朱德群一直在這條道路上前進。 1950年代,朱德群在台灣中部八仙山上寫 生,重新激發了他對中國水墨畫的興趣, 他在寫生時聯想到唐朝詩人王維,感悟到 中國文化傳承裡中「詩中有畫、畫中有 詩」的抽象美感。朱德群意識到,中 國人是第一個發現雲霧造型之美,並 且把它成功畫在紙上的民族。在此之 前,環顧世界繪畫史,天上的雲彩, 往往只是畫裡的背景。英國的水彩 大師泰納(William Turner),印象派 的先驅布丹(Eugène Boudin)、莫內 (Claude Monet),開始捕捉雲霞的 變幻,豐富了原有的繪畫語言,然而 它們仍舊是海景畫裡的大背景。中國 宣紙的渲染效果,或是毛筆揮灑的力 度,可巧妙地展現雲霧的千姿百態。 這些對自然的觀察促使了朱德群後來 發展抽象畫的前因。 1985年,在一次飛行途中,朱德群看 到阿爾卑斯山上大雪紛飛的景象,心 中浮現了李白、杜甫等人的詩句,內 心激動不已。大自然的無窮奧祕氣 象,大自然的渾然天成美感,激發 了朱德群對抽象畫的新解,因而發展出從 1985年至1989年期間膾炙人口、充滿詩意 的「雪景系列」。 對朱德群而言,風景畫其實並非概括地描 繪一處景觀,而是使人身在其中,感受自 然,進而把自己變成其中的一部份,從繪 畫中演繹其脈動、其氣息。朱德群說: 「只畫對自然的體驗,並不試圖去重複自 然。」我們不是站在一幅山水畫前,而是 沐浴在一個全然被吞噬、全然被融合的空 間裡,潤澤著我們,也燃燒著我們。中國 道家哲學的山水觀,給予朱德群創作時的 想像空間,而他對風景山水畫的熱愛,透 過抽象畫中得到充分的自由感。

朱德群在故國受過良好的美術教育,他是 杭州藝專潘天壽的嫡傳弟子,從小即以水 墨畫入門,潘師擅長山水寫意、花鳥畫, 有詩詞、書法、篆刻的造詣,帶領朱德群 一窺中國書畫藝術的堂奧。朱德群一生喜 愛閱讀詩詞,又寫得一手好字。中國文字 本身的書寫方式,乃是最接近有抽象畫的 一種藝術,西方現代抽象畫家們早借道東 方的書法,尋找靈感泉源。而朱德群在詩 詞書畫的造詣,自然時常展現於他充滿動 勢的抽象繪畫之中。

朱德群說:「…當我來到巴黎一段時間 後,我就懷念起水墨畫和書法來了。與 西方抽象藝術比較後,中國書法是世界 上最早發明的抽象藝術。就水墨畫來 說,它有很多理念與抽象畫相接近。國 畫讚賞逸筆草草,不求形似,重於神 似,這是很強的抽象傾向。文人畫家講 究意境和筆情墨趣,這和西方抽象畫開 創者把線條、色彩、構圖等繪畫元素當 作獨立的審美元素的追求是一致的。中 國畫所畫出的山水、人物,已不是現實 中的山水、人物,與現實有很大的距 離,這距離就是抽象意味。中國人只是 沒有把『抽象』二字說出來而已。」 (《朱德群專輯抽印本》,藝術家雜誌,頁70)

從1985年朱德群開始創作膾炙人口的雪景 系列,有幾幅雪景油畫代表作品皆在1987 年左右完成。例如《白色森林》、《寒》 以及《冬之呈現》等,以及此幅拍品《雪 景系列—寒》。這一年他的創作力尤其 豐沛,尺幅皆大,1987年台北的國立歷史 博物館為朱德群舉行離台32年後的盛大個 展,另有三間畫廊為他舉辦巡迴個展, 同年他也受邀在以色列首都市政廳展出的 「現代法國畫派展」參展,名列法國重要 當代藝術家之林。 探究朱德群的創作能量緣由,參加展 覽是其近因,但最主要的原因是1986 年他曾返回台灣參加藝術座談會,見 到心儀已久的宋代山水畫真蹟。他託 學生輩宋龍飛的安排,在當時台北故 宮博物院院長秦孝儀的特准下,由杭 州藝專同窗李霖燦陪同,在觀畫室飽 覽了范寬的《谿山行旅圖》、郭熙的 《早春圖》、李唐的《萬壑松風圖》 三幅鎮院之寶、曠世名作。 《雪景系列—寒》一作對照朱德群其 他的雪景畫,融合更多行草書法的概 念,以自動滴流技法,呈現動勢之 美。書法的奇突變化,宛如抽象畫的 變幻無端。藉由畫背上藝術家親題的 標題導讀,絲毫不影響觀者們的自由 聯想。作品的法文原題是Froidure, 意指寒冷,也是冬季的古詞。畫家的 自信筆鋒,騰躍在一片銀灰色的世 界裡,細線錯落交織如網,冰雪飛撒如夜 裡的繁星,綻放晶瑩剔透、變化莫測的微 光。看似繁雜無比的線條,卻又如一曲和 鳴的樂章,時而清越,時而低吟。紗幕般 的風雪裡,透著微明的光,冷色主調裡有 暖色彩的妝點,具華麗之美,整幅作品雖 然描繪冬意寒凝的景象,實給人流暢、愉 悅的詩意感受。近方形的巨大構圖,氣勢 先聲奪人,然而,宋畫形制傳統中特有的 優雅、細膩也在此展現,有范寬雪景山水 再現的風采。

His paintings are quite good, really. They have style, and they have character. I’d say that among all the Chinese oil painters who developed their career in the West, Sanyu deserves the place of honor.Chrysanthemums I was picking under the east hedge / When the South Range met my tranquil eyes … The soul of nature was here revealed / Too subtle it was for words.Sanyu was a great painter of flower stills and potted plants, and they are always blossoming in the most exquisite shapes and colors, brimming with life. Yet in truth, flowers in a vase are but beautiful blooms on stalks or branches already severed from the true sap of life—lingering on for a short while, but doomed to fade and wither quickly. It is a mournful sight, really, the sadness onlyenhanced by the sheer splendour of the subject. The overwhelming visual density is but the result of cutting and arrangement, an effect produced by squeezing thick clusters of flowers into too small a vase or pot, thus losing all sense of natural proportions. When this happens, some have plaintively observed, one forces these delicate plants to subsist on a little water or a few crumbs of soil, cutting them off from the generous nourishment of Mother Earth. Why would Sanyu be so sensitive to these truths? Why, his compassion and sympathy clearly derive from the fact that he was in a similar situation himself! I think he was a ‘potted plant,a flower in a vase,’ too, a bonsai from the

East transplanted to the huge garden that is Paris.The particular gift of this artist is to unite East and West in his paintings, not in a confused, sacrilegious way, but with an elevated awareness where one loses usual points of reference. Sanyu has found one word to describe his minimalist art using basically three tones of color: Simplicism.常 玉是中國第一代留法的傑出美術家,優雅、自由的繪 畫風格,在同代藝術家中顯得十分突出,作品曾多次 入選法國重要沙龍展,被視為「巴黎畫派」的成員之 一。1932年時,常玉的名字還曾被刊載於巴黎藝術 出版社所發行的《1910-1930當代藝術家生平辭 典》第三卷。在種族偏見仍深的年代,中國人的名字 首度登錄國際性的美術家生平辭典,絕非僥倖可獲 致。 早年多位留法的藝術家提起常玉,直言他 當年已有大師級的名氣,只是放蕩不羈的 性格,拒絕為五斗米折腰,晚年窮困客死 異鄉。曾在巴黎與常玉有一面之雅的老畫 家吳冠中,讚揚常玉是真正的藝術家,認 為其藝術遠在潘玉良、徐悲鴻等人之上, 他曾說道:「常玉的畫相當不錯,有格 調,有性格,我覺得中國人畫油畫到西方 去的,常玉是第一個。」在他的觀察,常 玉的油畫近乎寫意,但形與色的構成仍基 於西方現代造型觀念。 在第一代中國油畫家行列裡,常玉無疑是 非常突出的一位,具有超越時空的美學魅 力。至今,他仍是許多藝術收藏者的最 愛。儘管今日常玉留世的作品以油畫、水



探望二哥,停留一年餘,期間傳有其書法 作品刊載於日本藝術雜誌,足見當時常玉 已有中國書藝之相當基礎。雖然後來存世 的常玉書藝創作不多,但寫得一手好字的 常玉,在巴黎時初期以毛筆速寫裸女,功 力一流,經常一氣呵成,不需太多思索, 往往引起其他畫家的讚嘆。後來他也透過 油畫,也把書法的功力展現於人體、動 物、靜物、花卉姿態等線條上。

彩、素描、版畫等西方創作形式為主,但 他的的美學內涵與中國文化其實深不可 分。出生於四川南充的他,受父親常書舫 啟蒙,跟隨父親習畫,十二歲即展露藝術 的才華。常書舫以獅、馬等動物繪畫聞名 南充,潛移默化了常玉。在常玉從早期到 晚期的作品中,經常以風景畫中的馬為創 作主題,頗有幾分向父親致敬之意。傳統 藝術的因子,一直藏在飄浪性格藝術家常 玉的創作血液之中,不論是線條、筆法、 構成空間、色彩運用,還有繪畫中透露的 禪意與神韻,雖然身在歐洲,但筆下的靈 魂,滿溢著中華文化的影響。 少年常玉在父親的安排下,曾跟隨四川名 書法家趙熙(1877-1938)習字。趙熙的 詩書畫名聞遐邇,墨跡存於四川名勝古蹟 間。在其優雅的藝術涵養與尚美的情操薰 陶下,常玉頗受感召,得到父兄的許可與 鼓勵之下,走上藝術之路。他轉赴上海生 活,接收了廣告月份牌和宣傳海報圖式的 民間藝術的視覺刺激,當時盛行的海上畫 派、金石畫派等花卉的表現技法,傳承自 石濤、八大山人等藝術古風,對後來常玉 的繪畫思維起了一定的影響,奠定藝術養 分之基礎。1918至1919年間,常玉到東京

就創作的主題來看,常玉多選擇女體、花 卉、靜物、動物及少數的風景,並樂此不 疲。其中「花卉」題材在常玉一生創作中 佔有極大的比重,多以描寫中國傳統書畫 中常見的梅、竹、荷、菊,其中尤其偏愛 畫菊。菊花,經常出現在他的花卉畫裡, 隱藏著濃濃的鄉愁記憶。菊是花中隱士, 也是詩人的象徵。陶淵明的「採菊東籬 下」的優雅,想必在常玉心裡有深刻的了 解。他的生命價值觀與美學思考,透過花 卉畫的描寫抒發,彷彿也想藉由花的姿態 暗寓自己漂泊異鄉的身軀。吳冠中曾寫 道:「常玉畫了那麼多盆景,盆景裡開出 綺麗的繁花,生意盎然;盆景裡芶延著凋 零的殘枝,悽悽切切,卻鋒芒畢露。由於 剪裁形式構成的完整飽滿,濃密豐厚的枝 葉花朵往往種植於顯然不成比例的極小花 盆裡,有人慨嘆那是由於失去大地,只 依靠一點點土壤成活的悲哀。這敏銳的感 觸,這意味深長的慨嘆緣於同命運的相憐 吧!我覺得常玉自己就是盆景,巴黎花圃 裡的東方盆景。」 (節錄自吳冠中 〈說常玉〉一文)美學家蔣勳也從常 玉的花卉畫裡讀出「此生如花」 的聯想,花卉的姿態也反映出藝 術家的自我人生。 各時期的花卉創作各具特色, 1930年代前後的花卉畫多以粉色 作畫,形式簡潔,花卉多半是剪 枝,插在素瓶或花籃裡,姿態纖 巧造型可愛,經濟上因有外來資 助,材質以畫布為多;1940年代經 歷過二次大戰,物資缺乏,此時 無法購買畫布或昂貴顏料,改在 纖維板上反覆作畫,花枝或瓶身

常以粗線條勾勒,色彩組成簡單,構圖帶 有寫意的拙趣。晚期接近1960年代時,轉以 斑斕的色彩裝飾,描繪華麗卻又遠離真實 的瓶花盆景,帶給人一種絕美的感受。 常玉的後期花卉畫很少標明年代,依照風 格判斷,《黃底紅桌上的瓶菊》的創作時 期,約莫完成於1940-50年代。這幅創作 符合法國評論作家皮耶.儒芙瓦(Pierre Joffroy)的觀察:「他不依常理而又不落 俗套的創作手法,毫不含糊地把東西方之 優點融合於他的畫作中。常玉只運用三 種色調架構的畫面,常玉以這樣一個詞去 概括,那就是簡單主義。」常玉畢生奉行 「簡單主義」,他以食物的烹調比喻自己 的繪畫,有別於歐洲繪畫的燒烤、煎炸及 肉類的豐盛口味,比較接近蔬菜、水果及 沙拉,他自認為其藝術有助於人們改變欣 賞藝術的品味。 在《黃底紅桌上的瓶菊》創作中僅出現 黃、黑、紅三色:以大片明亮的金黃色為 主調,黑色花朵枝葉表現簡樸的力度,近 景低水平處,艷紅色的桌面為平面構成暗 示出空間,低視覺感巧妙地使得畫面產生 平穩與變化的效果。金黃與豔紅為中國民 間喜慶常見的色彩,象徵吉祥富貴,在民 間工藝藝術有廣泛的運用。然而,常玉 巧妙地運用這些色彩,卻一點也不流於俗 氣,反而顯得高貴雅緻,若非天賦無法達 成。而花葉的墨黑,不正是中國正統書畫

裡的用色?它是中國畫家最擅長的色彩, 但常玉不是以傳統的暈染,而是平塗描繪 菊的花瓣,造型類似中國剪紙的圖案,頗 有童心童趣。 對象物瓶菊,一如常玉其他的作品布局於 畫面中央,枝葉扶疏單色勾勒,瓶身與背 景的用色接近,形成遼闊感。構圖採水平 式,在藝術家的創作裡並不多見,多數都 是直立式的構圖居多,台北的國立歷史博 物館的藏品中二、三件名為《插瓶菊花》 作品有類似的構圖。較為特殊之處,《黃 底紅桌上的瓶菊》在布局花的姿態時,採 用了中國傳統畫論的「鹿角枝」,這種畫 法可以在其他的直立式構圖中也可看到, 「鹿角枝」描寫向上生長的樹枝。常玉有 時喜歡藉由精心安排瓶花、盆景的花卉姿 態,使畫面產生獨特的力度。常玉以率性 自我的性格,結合民族藝術特有的美學, 在歐洲美術界揮灑出一片天地,六十五歲 的短暫人生中,留存的油畫創作估計不到 三百幅,他所遺留的瑰寶,相信百年後仍 舊發光璀璨。

A mountain need not be high; It is famous so long as there is a deity on it. A mountain need not be high; It is beautiful so long as there are flowers on it; A mountain need not be high; It is attractive so long as there is scenery. In the 90s Wu Guanzhong made the most important breakthrough in his art life and reached the peak of his art. That time period of the artist featured abstraction in form and nobleness in spirit. However, having successfully assimilated the techniques of abstraction, the works of Wu Guanzhong in the 90s are both Chinese in outlook and modern in conception. To find a better expression for his ideal scenery, Wu Guanzhong traveled to Yunnan in the 1970s and stayed there through the 1980s till the 1990s. During the two decades he covered almost the whole country and sketched grand mountains in sight. Just as he himself said he was thoroughly “intoxicated by rivers and mountains and infatuated with customs and traditions. Instead of merely painting and sketching, I expected to get inspiration and cultivate my own style.” Like the process of mine selection and refinery, he repeated the efforts of refining and abstracting and finally cultivated the unique abstract form and created his own distinctive art style. “The Blooming Mountain” is a typical landscape painting of the 90s depicting banquets of flowers blooming on the Blooming Mountain in a suburb of Beijing. Blooming Mountain, especially well-known for its “flowers”, is dressed up with peach blossoms in early March and turns into a garden of flowers with the weather getting warmer. “Most flowers cannot be named and

108

rich colors are beyond description”. The mountain, like spring all year round, boasts waves of grand peaks and luxuriant flowers with streams trickling and murmuring around the rocks. Ascending the top of the mountain you can catch a sight of the majestic view of sunrise and lofty peaks; descending into the steep valleys you can get a gorgeous spectacle of a waterfall roaring all its way along and splashing itself against the rocks. It is the place where the renowned Buddhist monk DaDian in the Tang Dynasty cultivated himself, as the legend goes. In all his works, objective representation loses its importance, overtaken by the beauty of the abstract forms, lines, colors and subtle ink tones. In the eyes of the master, everything on earth exists in its own unique shape and changes all the time round. They are mutually related following certain common rules. The masterpiece “The Blooming Mountain” unfolds a legendary natural beauty displaying such elements as “separate form”, “chaotic”, “dispersion”, “concentration” and “cooperation”. With a fantasy air and atmosphere of point, line and plane jointly with red, yellow, green and purple, the painting, like a rainbow, beams its brilliant grandeur and elegance and shines the very core of the creation of the artist. Life can’t be without flowers yet there are lives never flowering. It is usually hard to relate a cloudy and bitter life with a lovely flower. There is life which is blooming all the way through yet it is hard to say Yang Kweifei, the magnificent concubine, is a blooming flower all the while before MAWEI Slope. Flower blooms simply for fruits. Blooming might be a matter of a second, while fruits might be everlasting. It is everlasting just because it has become the seed like peach

blossoms coming out and bearing fruit every year for hundreds and thousands of years. We usually try to comfort ourselves: life is but a short span while art enjoys an everlasting life. The everlasting life of art is the contribution of seed and new branches. Art absent of inspiration and enlightenment is an art bearing no fruit and is doomed to wither after a flash in the pan. (From Beautiful Articles and Books Series by Wu

山不在高,有仙則靈 山不在高,有花則美 山不在高,有景則秀 在90年代,吳冠中實現了他藝術生涯中最 重要的突破,登上了巔峰。形式上走向抽 象,精神上走向崇高是這個階段最主要的 特徵。但在他進行抽象探索的同時,並未 完全放棄舊的面貌,各種風格同時交錯在 90年代的創作當中。

Guanzhong-- Out of Red and Black Ink Come Beautiful Hills and Mountains)

All the shapes, forms and atmosphere richly present in Wu Guanzhong’s works are from real life, but different from the habitual in life, the artist selects part of the beauty and has it processed and refined in a creative way to turn it into a spiritual and cultural kind. Granting the sensation of beauty to the painting and communicating the image of beauty to the hearts of viewers, the artist makes unremitting efforts to widen the aesthetic vision of the viewers. He often, breaking through conventional practice, seeks new meaning for space and gets a creative tune in the linear layout of the animal and plant images. Meanwhile, vast patches of cold and warm colors are used to emphasize the brightness of colors and special meanings and at the same time the turning and twisting of branches suggest the strength and vigor of lines. All this can be regarded as a change in form, however, it is, as a matter of fact, an exhibition of his widening bosom and improving aesthetic awareness and a presentation of his ardor embracing a new time and new life as well as his soul-to-soul communication with Mother Nature. Marveling at the “The Blooming Mountain” will lend you a real feeling of being there and offer you an amazing experience of seeing the flowers blooming and withering, arousing within you the feelings that life is just like the flowers. As Wu Guanzhong said: “A flower is liked and loved simply for its short blooming life. When it withers, it is gone and leaves great pity in the heart of the lookers. Life, like the flower, makes the world interesting and amazing simply because it comes and goes in a fleeting way. ”

為了更好地表現他理想中的風景,1970年 代起畫家赴雲南寫生,時間跨越1980年 代,一直到1990年代。走遍中國,搜盡奇 峰打草稿,他說自己陶醉於山川風物之 異,人情品貌之繁,但也並非旅行寫生, 繪圖日記,本旨在采形煉型,營造自家梁 園。他一步步深入地提煉、抽象,再提 煉、再抽象,就像選礦和煉礦的過程一 樣,自然地發掘出了獨有的抽象形式,創 造了自己的風格。 吳冠中筆下的《百花山》是一幅典型的90 年代風格的風景題材作品,描繪的是北京 京郊百花山上花團錦簇的景象。百花山以 「花」最為著名。三月初春來臨時,山桃 花等最先開放;隨著氣候轉暖,百花山就 成為花的世界,「花多目所未者見,紅黃 紫翠不可名狀 」。山上群峰挺拔,四季 如春,繁花似錦,溪水潺潺,登高峰可以 觀賞日出雲海、群峰險峻;入峽穀可以觀 賞瀑布飛奔而下,氣勢非凡。傳說唐高僧 大顛曾在此修行。吳冠中畫裡強調線性的 結構,濃淡有致的色彩暗示山花的起伏及 陰影。 在藝術大師眼中,複雜的天地萬物形態 各異,運動不息,變化無窮,又相互聯 繫,有其各自的共同規律,《百花山》這 幅作品映照出了「分形」、 「混沌」、 「聚」、 「散」、 「合」所構成的自然 現象的神謬。並以點、線、面,紅、黃、 綠、紫暈染著夢幻般的心境與意氣。百花 山,沿著吳冠中藝術創作的核心,畫一道 弧虹。 「人生缺不了花朵,但從未開花的人生當 也不少,灰色的、苦澀的人生難於與花聯 繫起來。一路開花的人生也許有過,馬嵬 坡以前的楊貴妃是否就一直是盛開的花 朵,也難說。開花原本是為了結果,花開 只一瞬,果實才是恆久的吧,果實本也不 可能恆久,所以能恆久,因為它成為種

子。桃花易開易落,因結桃子,年年開, 千年開。人們自我安慰:人生短,藝術 長。藝術之長,當也依靠種子引發新枝, 失去啟發性的藝術是不結種子的藝術,也 只能像花朵開過一次便消滅。」 (摘自吳冠中美文美畫系列—朱墨春山/畫外思絮卷》)

以吳冠中作品了悟,抽象的作品其形態、 情狀、意境等運動變化著的豐富存在,其 實就是發生在生活裡的一情一景所包含的 因素,與生活中司空見慣的情景不同的 是,藝術家擇取了其中美的一部分,用創 作形式把這美「一生萬」或「萬生一」, 美脫離開客觀母體之後,成為一種主觀的 精神的審美、文化的審美。他把美的震撼 賦予丹青,用美的意象傳感讀者心靈,他 不知疲倦地與讀者在交流,啟發讀者打開 審美的眼睛。他常常在章法的疏密中,尋 求一種新的空間意味,常常在動物和植物 形象的縱橫交錯的線型安排中尋求一種新 異的節奏,也常常以大片大片的冷色、暖 色去強調色彩的亮度和特殊的意境,又通 過出枝走向的轉折強調線條的張力和生命 力,這可以說是一種形式上的變化,但實 質上又是他那不斷開闊的胸襟和審美意識 更新的表現,是他擁抱新的時代、新的生 活的熱情,是他和大自然物我交融昇華的 靈魂。 頓足在《百花山》前,仿若置身在景色 中,經歷了花開花落的夢幻心境,並不由 得感歎人生有如這百花,就像吳老師說: 「鮮花令人珍惜,由於花期苦短,落花流 水春去也,花比青春、年華易逝,誠是人 生千古遺憾,其實這正緣於生生滅滅的輪 迴匆匆,促成了人間的比分多彩。」

Wang Huaiqing's teacher was the Chinese master artist Wu Guanzhong, but the creative style he developed was completely different from that of his teacher. There's a sense of the profound in his works, filling the tranquility and elegance with visual tension. The renowned Chinese art critic Jia Fangzhou made this comment about Wang Huaiqing's works: "When examined from a philosophical perspective, Wang Huaiqing has chosen to travel on an extremely rarefied and exact path. In the treatment of planes we see the depth of space, within the expression figurative abstractionism can be found, in the sensual illusions principles of reason, and in the Western techniques of expression find the cultural sensitivities of the East. Traditional Chinese art has always emphasized the structure. From the spatial layout of the building, the composition of the painting, the framework of calligraphy, the contrast between ink and space of seal scripts through to the hollow spaces of the common paper-cut and more, all approach the subject matter with an eye to its structure. In Wang Huaiqing's work, these traditional elements have been given a creative modern transformation to become the main themes of his own style." In his works from the late 1990's, Wang Huaiqing found his inspiration in traditional wooden furniture. A great change in the disassembly and assembly of traditional concepts is demonstrated, extracting the

112

structure itself to become the central visual motif. Through the breakdown and recombination of furniture, he examines the interdependence between structures and uses a new painting language to re-interpret the world. In the painting, ink such as back and white color tones, the clean surfaces and simple textures create a modernist yet very Chinese atmosphere, providing the audience with a foreign visual experience. Even Michael Sullivan was moved to say: "It is that poetic sense of order created from within a chaotic world that makes Wang Huaiqing's art so inspiring." In this restless world, the artist creates a quiet corner of reminiscence. Wang gets his materials from the folk crafts, and makes a modern classic work of his own style. “Portrait of Stool” finished in 1999, is one of Wang’s favourites. The main character is a simple old stool. The shape of this old piece of furniture is distorted into geometric patterns, a coexistent form of round and square. The lonely counterpart looks like the face painted in the Chinese Opera - easy but independent; it tells its own story. Replacing the original wooden colour, the ink colour turns its functionality into a pure structure with a minimal abstract beauty. Yet, in that mottled background, the stool conveys a reminiscent atmosphere. Wang is always good at composing a picture, which gives the beholder an association of stage. He presents a

time gaze and an empty stage in his paintings; he let the beholders to fill in the stories which are once performed on stage. Why does he choose the Ming-style furniture as his characters? Wang answered, “I want to paint something which reverses the order of life and a lifeless object as well as the main and the subordinate characters. Sometimes, I feel that no matter how glorious and luxurious a person once lived, life itself is still very fragile. Very often, it cannot last longer than a piece of furniture. I just feel that a lifeless object is closer to me than a human being.” After 1990, the Ming-style furniture has become the main character in the paintings of the artist from Beijing. His furniture sometimes presents a simple and distorted shape, and sometimes it just falls apart and gives a feeling of loneliness and loss. The black structure in “Portrait of Stool” contains the powe r o f t h e s t e l e - s t y l e calligraphy. Its silhouette-like composition also narrates a profound meaning. An ancient stool enlarged by the artist brings out an imaginary space of the life of a Chinese intellectual. It also inhabits the passion of a contemporary artist to present the culture of his nation to the world.

若從哲學的角度審視,王懷慶走的是一條 極高明而道中庸的路。在平面處理中見空 間的深度,在具象表現中見抽象精神,在 感性錯覺中見理性原則,在西方的表現技 巧中見東方的文化內涵。中國傳統藝術一 向注重結構,建築的空間佈局、繪畫的置 陳步勢、書法的間架結構、篆刻的分朱布 白,直至民間剪紙的平面鏤空…無一不從 結構著眼。在王懷慶的作品中,這些傳統 因素經過創造性的現代轉化,構成了自己 風格的主要成分。那股從躁動世界裡創造 出詩一般秩序的力量,使王懷慶的畫是如 此地令人深深所激賞特別想畫一幅畫來把 這種有生命的東西和這種物件,沒有生命 的東西,給它的主角和它的次角做一個倒 置,有時候覺得人的生命不管多輝煌,多 奢靡,全都是比較脆弱的,有時候還不如 一個傢俱更永恆,更長久,物很近,人很 遠,就這種物是人非的一種情緒吧。

Li Chen’s sculptures are the kind of art that you will never forget once you have seen them. The special character and extremely powerful style exhibited by Li Chen’s sculptural works have brought his viewers a lot of surprises and earned the artist prodigious and well deserved praise. The artworks are like alien artifacts from other worlds that astound one’s sight; they appear like ancient classical works existing in an ethereal solitude. Li Chen’s works possess a unique and self-contained sculptural world which is interwoven with energetic and full shapes, round and smooth lines and harmonious images.I try to look for spiritual space within my works, and also hope that I can combine spirituality with art. I hope that anyone who sees my works can find and absorb the spiritual elements generated by them. Philosophy carries important meanings in my works, and I do hope that all my works can enrich viewers’ lives.

「李真先生的雕塑是那種看過一眼便會 令人不能忘記的藝術,它們以極為個性 的面貌和極為強烈的風格讓人歎為觀 止,猶如天外來客驚擾視線,也如遠古 經典遺世獨立。…他的雕塑擁有自足的 世界,那是由他作品飽滿的形體、圓 潤的線條和通體渾然的意象交織而成 的。」 -中國美術館館長 范迪安

李真,一位為中國雕塑帶來全新格局的 當代雕塑家,生於1963年。至今已於紐 約、芝加哥、邁阿密、休士頓、巴黎、 倫敦、日內瓦、威尼斯、上海、北京、 新加坡、首爾、雅加達、台北等多個城 市展出,私人及公共收藏遍佈全世界, 為當代極重要的國際級藝術家。李真 2007年「虛空中的能量」個展受邀參加 全世界最具學術地位的第52屆威尼斯雙 年展,為至高的榮譽;2008年4月在北 京中國美術館舉辦大規模個展「尋找精 神的空間」,獲得廣大的迴響及肯定; 2008年10月份更將在北京798藝術區發 表全新系列的大型雕塑裝置作品-《神 魄》,創造傳統精神與現代藝術的對 話,呈現震撼人心的視覺效果。 李真涉略佛道學等經典,在藝術作品的 追求上,是以雕塑來傳達東方文化的精 神與內涵。李真以「虛空」為其重要的 創作美學概念,「空」與「虛」是中國 文化中佛學及道學的重要思想,佛學中 的「空」並不是代表沒有,而是代表一 個巨大寂靜的生滅智慧境界,在道家思 想有兩句話:「虛空粉碎,大地平沉」, 描述破與靜的極點狀態,在「易」之中 求道。李真的雕塑是在探討虛空的能 量,但他所表現出的雕塑實體,卻是空 於外,道氣入內而充塞,一點也不空, 原因是李真再現能量是以一種精神的形 式,用通體漆黑的實體來表現攝人的物 質精神,但雕塑所傳達卻是甜美、浪 漫、喜悅與滿足的精神概念。正因如 此,即便他的部分作品巨大無比,但卻

不顯壓迫笨重,似漂浮於空中,令人有 「既重又輕」的感覺,這正是精神能量 與物質能量完美的結合所致。不但如 此,李真突破千年佛教雕塑既有的形式 藩籬,轉化唐代佛教造像的豐厚飽滿, 以及宋代俊美秀麗的精神暨形象特質, 將雕塑的開臉與線條減至極簡,並且萃 取中國五千年歷史文化的元素,如中國 的仙、佛、龍、神話、民間故事等,更 進一步注入當代藝術的元素及物件,成 功的結合古典與當代,使其作品呈現一 種前所未見的獨特型態及樣貌,賦予東 方雕塑新的生命。 「我試著在我的作品裡找到靈性的空 間,也希望這靈性與藝術結合。我希望 看到我作品的人能夠察覺並吸收其中的 精神元素,哲理對我的作品來說含有重 要的意義,而我希望每一件作品都能豐 富觀賞者的人生。」 ─李真

《乘雲氣》完成於2000年,為李真「大 氣神遊」系列的代表作之一。李真此系 列創作從中國意境粹取,作品帶有一種 「仙氣」,強調的是「遊」的概念,以 空明境界讓觀賞者沉澱與紓解,在精氣 神內自在悠遊,用最真的態度來面對生 命。《乘雲氣》也是一件李真反映人生 經驗及關懷生活週遭世界的作品:遊者 單足而立,飄然佇立於裊裊雲氣 中,捧著銀色祥雲冉冉升天, 將已被人類破壞的臭氧層 用片片祥雲修補起來, 期望用精神的富足來 彌補真實世界的不完 美。神情形態看似 自若愜意、逍遙而 自在,卻又抿著 嘴,無奈科技文 明的進步破壞原 有的自然生態。 李真透過技巧 性的處理雕塑

形體姿態,以獨樹一格的造型能力表現 雕塑體圓融與圓滿的精神境界,是內化 後的美感與力量,多一分則過,少一分 則不及,李真在這分毫之間,找到了所 謂的「穠纖合度」,完美表達了遊者既 開心又無奈的五味雜陳神情。本體的墨 黑與白銀的雲朵相互呼應,一股超脫的 氛圍暢然而生。李真極擅長處理這種量 體輕重對應的關係,銀的溫潤與黑的能 量,既對比又和諧;銀白色的雲朵輕巧 飄然,卻能夠穩穩支撐住具有能量的翩 翩遊者,在不穩定中求得安定,尋求精 神的平靜,撫慰這個已殘缺的世界。

Korehiko Hino is one of the rising stars of Japanese contemporary art. Born in 1976, he studied painting at the University of Tsukuba from where he got his master’s degree in 2001. In 2005 he won the Grand Prize at “The Vision of Contemporary Art”, the Ueno Royal Museum Tokyo. Hino’s works are instantly recognizable with their young people with large stunned eyes seemingly bewildered by life. Influenced by Japanese anime and manga art, Hino portrays his subjects as innocent, guileless young people confounded by the daily pressures of modern life, a recurrent theme in Japanese art. It seems his figures are afraid of growing up, wanting to retreat back into an infantile state, finding the world too confusing and confounding.

“My Elegance” Portrayed in a classical, heroic Greek style, the young man of the picture is dignified and seems to be poised and self-assured. His luxuriant, wavy hair seems to suggest a nonchalant, carefree attitude. Yet, his large wide-opened eyes express vulnerability, the vulnerability we all feel in the face of a depersonalized society which seems to shun the individual. However, the brightly colored, sky-blue background adds a note of optimism and a hope that with our dignity we can break through a cold and lonely world.

日野之彥為日本當代藝術的明日之星,生 於1976年,於筑波大學專研油畫,並於 2001年在筑波大學完成油畫碩士課程。 2005年參加東京上野之森美術館「當代藝 術視野」,贏得首獎。 日野畫作中的年輕人對於人生似乎深感困 惑,茫然無措的大眼睛為主要特色。受到 日本動畫與漫畫影響,日野以天真無邪的 年輕人為主角,表現出日本藝術中常見的 主題:受盡現代生活壓力的困惑。日野筆 下全是一群害怕長大成人的角色,無力應 付過於複雜慌亂的成人世界,而渴求回到 嬰兒狀態。

《俺之品格》 以經典誇張的希臘風格,描繪出一位高貴 莊嚴、泰然自若又充滿自信的年輕人,其 濃密的捲髮顯示出一副冷靜又輕鬆自如的 態度。但是,一雙眼睛睜得又大又圓,個 人特性被社會剝奪泯滅的傷害展露無遺。 然而,色調明亮的天藍色背景,傳達出樂 觀與希望,似乎在說只要保有個人尊嚴, 我們即能夠衝出冷酷寂寞的世界。

Agus Suwage was born in Indonesia in 1959 of Chinese decent. He studied graphic design at Bandung Institute of Technology. Often considered a socialist activist in his art, Suwage is primarily concerned with problems faced in contemporary Indonesian society. Of Chinese decent, he has struggled with his own personal identity, as an Indonesian, an ethnic Chinese, a Javanese, a global citizen, an artist, a family member and a consumer, concerns facing many Indonesians in its modernizing society and economy. His art is very personal portraying ideas of oppression, along with other contemporary concerns often in a dramatic, ironic or humorous way. Using himself as a model, his paintings are a storytelling of his personal experiences of the current dilemmas and futilities of life in Indonesia. They have deep resonances with universal themes of identity, belonging and struggling. The ocean is a symbol of freedom, cleansing and escape. In “Lautan Tanda 2” the artist is swimming strongly, perhaps away from his everyday concerns and struggles. His head is held high and he seems empowered with his escape. The soft moonlight glitters invitingly on the water, creating an atmosphere of peace and calm. The artist is alone, separated from his anxieties. But is this only a dream? The picture is covered in numbers, and numbers are a symbol of imprisonment. When he finishes his swim, or when he wakes up in the morning, will the same concerns he is escaping now come flooding back? Will he still have to pay the bills and put bread and butter on the table for his family?

蘇瓦吉生於1959年,為華人後代,畢業於 印尼萬隆科技學院,研習平面設計。 由於作品主題經常涉及當代印尼社會問 題,蘇瓦吉的藝術創作因此被視為社會運 動派。身為華裔,蘇瓦吉對自我身分多番 掙扎,作為印尼人、中國人、爪哇人、地 球公民、藝術家、家庭成員、消費者,身 處現代化的社會與經濟,眾多印尼人也面 臨同樣的問題。 蘇瓦吉的藝術創作展現極端自我的想法, 運用戲劇化、諷刺或是幽默的方法,充分 表達備受壓抑的種種當代社會問題。以自 身作為對象,蘇瓦吉的畫作述說自己在 當今印尼生活中的困難與無助,與身分認 知、歸屬、奮鬥等普遍主題深深共鳴。 海洋象徵著自由、淨化、脫逃,作品中, 藝術家奮力游泳,抬頭高昂,欲全力掙脫 生活問題與壓力。水面閃爍柔和月光,營 造寧靜的氛圍。藝術家獨自一人,拋卻 煩憂。但是會否只是一場夢?畫面滿佈數 字,象徵牢獄。一旦游泳結束,或者早晨 醒來,同樣的壓力與問題是否又迎面而 來?他是否依舊要為了一家生計而奔波?

Starting in 1996, he created the series “Revolt in the Soul & Body”, using computers to alter historical photographs of executions. In 2000, he began his straight photography series “The Twelve Karmas Under the City”, exploring the “virtual future”. His use of intense and frightening images to provoke a reflection on the relationship between image and power soon drew people’s attention. He has taken part in international exhibitions such as the Taipei Biennial (1998), the Sao Paulo Biennial (1998), the Biennale di Venezia (Taiwan Pavilion) (1999), the Biennale de Lyon Contemporary Art (2000), the Kwangju Biennale (2000), the Taipei Biennial (2002) and PhotoEspana (2004).

CHIU Ya-tsai (Taiwanese, b. 1949)

YANG Mao-lin (Taiwanese, b. 1953)

KUO Wei-kuo (Taiwanese, b. 1960)

Chiu was born in 1949 in Yi-lan on the east coast of Taiwan. A loner and an underachiever in school, he began his mandatory military service and at the same time began to read. Beginning with Chinese history and progressing to the classics of Western literature in translation for example the masterpieces of Shakespeare and Dostevsky, he was inspired by tales of heroes and began to write and paint. Chiu's portraits of Taiwan's modern-day literati are greatly influenced by figure painting of the Tang dynasty (618-906 AD) seen in the hooked noses and almond-shaped eyes. Elegant androgynous-looking men and women with elongated, oval faces are shown seated or standing in partial profile. The subjects appear to be lonely, even melancholic, but controlled and self-possessed. In the 1980s, Chiu persevered with his literary and artistic works in a well-known cultural salon “Wisteria” in Taipei. His paintings have been widely exhibited in Spring Gallery (Taipei), the National Museum of History and the Taiwan Museum of Art.

Yang was the first director and a founding member of the Taipei School. In 1991 he won the first Art Creation Award of Hsiung Shih Fine Arts; his works have been shown in numerous exhibitions, including his first solo exhibition at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum; in 1990 he participated in the Taiwan Art Museum Exhibition “300 years of Taiwan Art”; in 1995 his works were included in the “Exhibition of Taiwanese Art” in Rome. Yang Mao-lin's works represent a segment of Taiwanese history and build up time/space juxtapositions; they take a critical and even subversive view of Taiwanese historical events. Since the 1990s, he began criticizing Taiwanese social phenomena under the long-term influence from American culture and Japanese culture. Then he added multi-media in his installation work to respond to current Taiwan society. Yang has been frequently invited to participate in international art exhibitions. In 1999, his early series “Zeelandia Memorandum” was shown at the 48th Venice Biennale and was well received by international art critics and collectors.

Born in Taipei, Taiwan. Kuo was the winner of the honors of “New Artist Award of Hsiung Shih Fine Arts” in 1983, the 8th “Modern Painting Prize of Li Zhong-Sheng Foundation” in 2003, and the “Liao Chi-chun Oil Painting Award” in 2005, and has organized 8 solo exhibitions since 1993. Starting with the “Diagram of Commotion and Desire” in 1998, Kuo has explored his dark dreams in his four chronological series, “From the Deep Forest” 1997-1999, “Faint Dawn” 2000-2002, “Enlightenment” 2003-2005, and “Towards a Bright Start” 2006, by digging out the soul from the depths to re-discover the light of hope. These four chronological series touch audiences when their eyes meet the author’s.

邱亞才 (台灣,1949年生)

楊茂林 (台灣,1953年生)

郭維國 (台灣,1960年生)

1949年生於宜蘭縣,非學院派畫家,自幼對正規 學業不感興趣,退伍後才開展對文字藝術的追求, 以及對人性的深刻觀察。中國歷史、莎士比亞、杜 斯妥也夫斯基等大師巨著的閱讀經驗,豐富其往後 繪畫中的人物深度。邱亞才筆下的台灣現代文人肖 像,受唐代繪畫的影響頗深,如人物的鉤狀鼻、杏 眼,鵝蛋臉,身材頎長纖瘦,雌雄莫辯,主題上傾 向於孤寂、憂鬱、內斂而沈靜。1980年代他經常於 台北知名文化沙龍「紫藤廬」一隅創作,以成無數 畫作及小說。作品曾於台北春之藝廊、歷史博物館 及省立美術館等處展出。以肖像畫著稱,藉由畫筆 直嘆身埋人類理性面具下的卑微、傲慢、頹廢與脆 弱,細膩優雅中洋溢著文人感懷落寞的頹靡氛圍。

1953年生於彰化。1979畢業於台北文化大學美術 系,1985年為台北畫派創始成員並推選為第一任會 長。1991年榮獲第一屆雄獅美術創作新人獎。展覽 紀錄豐富,如:1987年第一次個展於台北市立美術 館,1990參加台灣省立美術館舉辦的「台灣三百 年作品展」,1995年於義大利羅馬舉行的「台灣 當代藝術展」等。於楊茂林的作品中,我們可以看 到對台灣歷史的片斷及多元時空的交錯,其作品以 批判,顛覆的手法對台灣歷史事件作一另類省思。 1990年代之後,從美國、日本文化影響,創作「文 化篇」系列作品,嘗試多媒體與裝置創作,掌握時 代脈動,呈現今日社會文化面向。1990年代獲國際 邀展不斷,1999年以《熱蘭遮紀事》等早期作品參 加第四十八屆威尼斯國際藝術雙年展,受到國際藝 評家與收藏家的注意。

生於台灣台北。1983年獲雄獅美術新人獎優選。 2003年為第八屆「李仲生基金會現代繪畫獎」得 主。2005年獲廖繼春油畫創作獎。1993年起至今 已舉辦8次個展。郭維國自1998年起發表了「暴 喜圖」之後,展開「柳暗1997-1999」、「熹微 2000-2002」、「豁然2003-2005」及「花明2006」四 個階段,傾向於在灰暗如夢的場域探索,不吝地掏 盡躲在深處的自我,漸漸進入到心底對下一個光亮 晨曦的嚮往心境。透過精采的脈絡串連,提供觀者 與作者眼神交會時瞬間觸動的滿足感。

Alixe FU (Taiwanese, b. 1961)

HWANG Jyi (Taiwanese, b. 1953) Born in Chiayi in 1974. Works by Hwang Jyi were shown in the 1989 L'Ecole Nationale Supérieures des Beaux-Arts exhibition in Paris, and he later won first prize in the National Fine Arts Exhibition. Hwang Jyi's works, often in the nature of surrealist epics, can be seen as a kind of personal creative journal, with strong sensory impact created through presentation of multi-layered dimensions. They stand as unique stylistic achievements in modern Taiwanese art.

Born in 1942 in Taichung, Taiwan, Chiang graduated from the Fine Arts Department of the National Taiwan Normal University in 1965. He lived in Paris in 1967, then moved to New York in 1968, and came back to Taiwan in 1997 till the present. He has held solo exhibitions at the Taiwan Provincial Museum (1966, Taipei); exhibitions held by Lamagna Gallery (1975, New York); by O. K. Harris Gallery (1994, New York); by Eslite Gallery (1997; 1998; 2000, Taipei); and his recent solo exhibition “A Journey into Dimension and Space” (2007, Taipei) led Chiang to extend his art from painting to sculpture and where he exhibited his new works of iron sculptures, as results of his ambition in exploring the use of space and development of three dimensional works.

1961年出生台灣,畢業於中國文化大學美術系。 1983年在台北首次個人畫展,隨後在巴黎、紐約、 北京、法國、日本、台灣等地個展。1987年以藝術 家身份旅居法國, 1991年獲法國巴黎西北郊三十公 里梵谷村國家永久畫室。 傅慶豊曾舉辦過的個人展 覽包括:2002年「植物人、動物人I」,美雅畫廊, 名古屋,日本;2003年「XVI屆名古屋當代藝術博覽 會個展」美雅畫廊,日本; 2004年「植物人、動物 人III」布洛斯古堡美術館,布洛斯市,法國。

生於嘉義。其作品曾入選1989年巴黎高等美術學院 美展,而後又獲得第七屆全國美展首獎。其作品可 謂是一種個人的日記形式創作,畫中帶有超現實史 詩的內涵,充滿多層次時空交替的感官接觸,為台 灣當代藝術中別樹一格的風格。

Born in Gansu, China, Zhang graduated from the Affiliated Senior High School of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and the Central Academy of Arts and Design. In 1982, he settled down in the United States. Zhang reinterprets the masterpieces of traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy with western colors and brush marks. He reserves the composition and wide horizon of traditional Chinese landscape painting fully with western painting techniques and starts conversations between past and present, east and west with his own paint brush. He frees himself boldly from traditional Chinese and western aesthetics and provides viewers with a whole new visual experience from an objective perspective.

Born in Chongqing city, China, Mao Xuhui graduated in 1982 from the Yunnan Arts University, Art Department, majoring in oil painting, where he stayed teaching after graduation; and he is now a member of the Yunnan Oil Painting Association, and ViceChairman of the Yunnan Oil Painting Society.

2. Prior to the auction a. Authentication We strongly recommend that the prospective buyers conduct their own authentication for the items they are interested in bidding prior to the auction. We provide no guarantees to the buyer (with the exception of the guarantee with regard to counterfeits as defined in Section III of the Transaction Agreement). b. Important Notice Attention, prospective buyers: As far as possible, the descriptions of auction items will mention obvious defects of the items; however, they do not necessarily include all flaws, defects, or incomplete aspects. The Company regrets that it is unable to guarantee that the wristwatches on auction are in good working condition and the descriptions in the catalogue must not be construed as implying such. The description of the auction items also do not imply that the items have not gone through readjustment or repair or allude anything about the current state or storage conditions of the items. Any omission in the catalogue description regarding the current condition or the appraisal of defects in the items by no means represent that those items are in good condition, function normally, or that there will be any free repair or replacement of parts. We strongly recommend prospective buyers to personally view the items for which they plan to bid before the auction itself. If a prospective buyer is unable to view an item for whatever reason, then in our role as a service provider, we would be more than happy to offer our opinion of an item's special characteristics and current condition. However, the Company is not a professional restorer of wristwatches; therefore, any description in the catalogue is purely the Company's subjective opinion and not a statement of fact. Please note: The outer shells of many of the water-resistant watches have been opened in order to investigate their working condition and their type; therefore, it must not be assumed that they are currently water-resistant. We recommend buyers to have such watches checked by a competent watchmaker before use. Please note: The restoration of the items on auction may have resulted

190

in original parts being replaced; therefore, we are unable to guarantee that any given watch's parts are from the original set of parts. All of the items on auction are being sold in "as is" condition.the Company does not provide any representation or guarantee as to the condition of any of the items. Unless otherwise stated, the Company does not provide any warranty with the items. c. Catalogue Explanations Any statement of the author, history, date, year, size, material, ownership, authenticity, origin, condition of preservation or estimated selling price of any of the Lots shown in the catalogue or the authentication opinion made by the Company, or any other verbal or written statements made separately shall be solely statements of opinions and shall not be deemed the basis for the statements of actual fact. The photographs shown in the catalogue shall serve as reference only and shall not be deemed as the basis for determining the color or tone of any Lots or disclosure of the defects of such item. The estimates of the auction price shall not be deemed the price at which such item will be successfully sold or the statement of the value of the item for other purposes. Many auction items fail to maintain their perfect condition because of time and other environmental factors. Some of the explanations in the catalogue or the authentication opinions will state defects and/or the repair background of the Lots. Such information is meant for reference only. Missing information in the statements does not mean the Lot has no defects or has not been repaired. Any statement of one particular defect does not mean there is no any other defect. d. Responsibility of the Buyer The Buyer is responsible for clarifying and satisfying himself about the condition of the items and any related matters stated in the catalogue descriptions.

3. In the auction a. Refusal of admission The auction is held at the premises of the Company or any location where the Company has control of for the auction. The Company has full discretion to exercise the right to refuse entry to the premises for the auction or to prevent participation in the auction. b. Registration prior to the bidding Prospective buyers must fill in and sign the registration forms prior to the bidding and provide personal identification. Prospective buyers should also note that the Company may be requested to conduct credit checks against buyers. c. The bidder is the Buyer Unless a written agreement has been made upon registration that the bidder will be the agent who acts on behalf of a third person and such third person is accepted by the Company, the bidder will be deemed as the Buyer who will bear individual legal responsibilities.


d. Commission bids The Company will make every effort to bid for the prospective buyers who instruct us to bid on their behalf by using the forms attached to the explanations of the catalogue; provided, however, bid commission instructions are delivered to the Company prior to the auction. If the Company receives several commission bids for one particular item, with all bid prices being equal and of the highest bid price at the auction, priority shall be given to the Buyer whose bid commission is delivered to the Company first. Commission bids are subject to auction conditions. The situation at the auction may prevent the Company from making the bid as commissioned. This is a free service provided by the Company to the prospective buyers pursuant to the provisions prescribed.The Company will not be held legally liable if it fails to make the bid as commissioned. Prospective Buyers should attend the auction in person if they wish to ensure a successful bid. e. Bid by phone The Company will make proper effort to contact the bidder so he can participate in the auction by phone if the prospective buyer make arrangements with the Company prior to the auction. However, the Company will bear no responsibilities to the Seller or any prospective buyer if no contact is made under any circumstances. f. Exchange rate conversion board There will be an exchange rate conversion board operating at some auctions. The exchange rate is calculated at the exchange rate of the one-month future goods reported to the Company from the bank when starting business on the day of the auction. Nonetheless, the auction will still be conducted in HK dollars. The exchange rate conversion board is not absolutely reliable. The accuracy of either the Lot numbering shown on the board or the equivalent of the bid price in any foreign currency is not within the control of the Company. The Company will not be responsible for any losses caused by the reliance of the Buyer on the exchange rate conversion board. g. Recorded images There is image projection in some auctions; however, errors may occur during the operation. The Company is not liable for the color accuracy of the reproduced image and whether the projected image corresponds to the item being auctioned. h. Determining power of the auctioneer The auctioneer has the absolute power to reject any bid, push for bids at his discretion, withdraw any auction items, separate or combine two or more auction items, and if there is any error or dispute, re-auction the items. i. Successful bids Under the discretion of the auctioneer, the fall of the hammer indicates the acceptance of the highest bid price, i.e., the Seller and the Buyer enter into a successful auction agreement.

4. Following the auction a. The service fee of each lot payable by the Buyer (1) The Buyer should pay the hammer price and, in addition, the service fee to the Company. For hammer price below HK$ 5,000,000 (inclusive), the service fee should be calculated at 18% of the hammer price. (2) For hammer price higher than HK$ 5,000,000, the first HK$ 5,000,000 should be calculated at 18% and the rest of the amount should be 12%. b. Taxes All the payments payable by the Buyer to the Company do not include any government tax, any commodity or service taxes or any other value added taxes. The Buyer should be responsible for paying any applicable taxes as required by the law. c. Payment The Buyer should provide his name and permanent address to the Company upon the successful bid. Relevant bank information should also be provided upon request. All payments due (including the hammer price, service fee and any applicable taxes) should be paid within 7 days following the auction date. The aforesaid provision also applies if the Buyer intends to export the Lot and (may) need the export permit. If the Buyer fails to pay to the Company all the payments due, the Buyer will not acquire the ownership of the Lot even if the Company has delivered such item to the Buyer. If the payment to Ravenel are made in any currency other than HK dollars, the Company will collect from the Buyer any foreign exchange expense incurred therefrom, including bank charges and foreign exchange service fees. The exchange rate of the payments to the Company in any currency other than HK dollars should be the exchange rate reported by the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) to the Company on the auction date and should be based on the certificates issued by the Company according to such exchange rate. d. Collection of the Lot sold Unless otherwise agreed by the Company, the Company will hold temporarily the successfuly sold Lots until all payments to the Company are made in full. The Lot will be covered by the insurance of the Company from the auction date for 7 days during the temporary holding period. The insurance coverage will terminate upon collection of such item. The Buyer should be responsible for all risks following expiration of the said 7-day period or the collection (whichever is the earlier). e. Packaging and transportation The Buyer is requested to note that he should bear all the risks upon expiration of the said 7 days period or from collection of such items. f. Referral of packaging or transportation companies The shipping department of the Company may act as the agent of the

191


Buyer to arrange for delivery. Although we can refer freight forwarders upon special request, the Company will not be held liable for any legal responsibilities in this regard. g. Remedies for non-payment or non-collection of items sold The Company is entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies if the Buyer fails to make payment within 7 days: (1) An interest at the annual rate of no higher than 10% plus the base interest rate of Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) will be imposed on all of the payment due if payment is not made within 7 days following the auction date. Besides, we have the right of charging also 1% selling price (including of hammer price and the commission) multiplied by the number of delayed days as fine for the default. The payment to be made by the Buyer should offset any payment owed by the Company or its subsidiaries to the Buyer for any other transactions. (2) To exercise lien of any items owned by the Buyer and held by the Company for any purpose. The Company may arrange to sell such items after serving a 14-day notice to the Buyer about his non-payment. The proceeds shall make up for the payment due. (3) If the Buyer owes the Company several payments as a result of different transactions, the payments will setoff any payments due in any particular transaction, regardless of whether the Buyer specifies to setoff such payments. (4) Refuse the Buyer to make, or to make on behalf of others, bids in any future auctions and/or to require a security deposit from the Buyer before accepting any future bids from him. If the Buyer fails to make payment within 35 days, the Company is entitled to exercise the following rights in addition to the aforementioned: (5) To bring legal proceedings against the Buyer on behalf of the Seller to claim the entire payment due and the legal fees resulting from such proceeding based on a total claim. (6) Cancel the transaction of Lots bid by the Buyer or any other auction items sold to the Buyer at the same or any other auctions. (7) To arrange a public or private re-sale of the Lot. If the re-selling price is lower, the difference will be claimed against the Buyer together with any cost incurred as a result of the non-payment by the Buyer. h. No collection of the Lot sold The Company will arrange for the storage of the Lot if such item sold is not collected within 7 days of the successful auction, regardless of payment. Such storage cost will be borne by the Buyer. Only when the storage, shipping, insurance cost and any other expenses together with any other payments due to the Company are paid can the sold Lot be collected. i. Export permit

192

Except where otherwise agreed in writing by the Company, the fact that the Buyer's wishes to apply for an export permit does not affect the Buyer's responsibility to make the payments in 7 days; nor does it affect the Company's right to impose interest on delayed payments. If the Buyer requests that the Company applies for the export permit on his behalf, the Company is entitled to collect monies made in connection with such an application and any miscellaneous expenses together with any relevant value added taxes. If the Buyer makes the payment regardless of the fact that an export permit is needed, the Company is not responsible for returning to the Buyer any interest or other expenses incurred therefrom.

5. The legal responsibility of the Company The Company is responsible for returning payment to the Buyer pursuant to Article 6. Otherwise, whether the Buyer, the Company, any employees or agents of the Company will not be held liable for any statements of the author, history, date, year, ownership, authenticity or origin of any auction item or any errors with respect to any explanations and any flaws or defects of any auction item. The Buyer, the Company, the employees or the agents of the Company make no guarantee with respect to any auction items. Any warrantee of any kind shall not be included herein.

6. Return of payments for counterfeits The transaction will be cancelled and payments made will be returned to the Buyer if the Lot of the Company is confirmed to be a counterfeit. However, if: a. The catalogue explanations or the notice at the auction distributed on the auction day corresponds to the opinions generally accepted by the academic or professional fields; b. The method used to prove that the Lot is a counterfeit is a scientific procedure not generally accepted for use before the publication of the catalogue or a procedure unreasonably expensive on the day of the auction, or impractical, or may cause damage to the Lot; the Company is not liable for the return of any payment under any circumstances. In addition, the Buyer's payment can only be refunded when the following terms are met: (1) The Buyer must notify the Company in writing within 10 days following the auction day that he considers the relevant auction item a counterfeit. (2) The Buyer must return the Lot to the Company within the following 14 days and the condition of the item must be the same as on the auction day. (3) Upon returning the Lot, the Buyer must present evidence as soon as possible to convince the Company that the Lot is a counterfeit. The Buyer may also assign the good ownership of the Lot to the Company, which shall not concern any third party claim. Under no circumstances is it necessary for the Company to pay the Buyer an amount more than what the Buyer pays in connection with the Lot and the Buyer can not claim interests.


The interests of the warrantee cannot be assigned and belong solely to the Buyer who receives the original invoice from the Company when the Lot is sold. Such Buyers shall remain the owner of the auction Lot and cannot assign any interest of the Lot to any other person. The Company is entitled to ascertain that the Lot is not a counterfeit based on a scientific procedure or any other procedure, regardless of whether such procedure is being used on the day of the auction. The aforementioned does not apply to coins, medals, jewelry and paintings.

II. The Seller

additional amount will be collected by the Company from the Seller as the shipping insurance. Such amount varies depending on the individual condition of each auction item. The Company will refer a freight forwarder if necessary. However, the Company is not responsible for any legal responsibilities incurred therefrom. The Lot will remain insured up to 7 days after the sale. If the Lot has not been sold, it will be at the Seller's risk upon the expiry of 7 days. We are unable to accept responsibility for damage caused by woodworm or changes in atmospheric conditions.

1. Ravenel as the agent

4. Insurance purchased by the owner

The Company acts as the agent of the Seller at a public auction. The Closing Agreement of the Lot is the agreement by and between the Buyer and the Seller.

If the Seller instructs the Company specifically that it is unnecessary to purchase insurance for the Lot, the risks shall be borne entirely by the Seller until the Buyer makes all the payments. The Seller must indemnify the Company, the employees and agents of the Company and the Buyer (if applicable) any claims in connection with the auction against the Company, the employees and agents of the Company and the Buyer, regardless of the cause of such claim. The Buyer must also pay for the expenses incurred as a result of such claim if requested by the Company, the employees and agents of the Company and the Buyer, even if such expenses are made as a result of negligence by the Company, the employees and agents of the Company and the Buyer without proof of legal responsibility. The Seller must inform the underwriter of the Seller the provision herein.

2. Expenses The Seller shall bear costs relating to the following: a. Packing of the Lot and shipping to the Company for the auction b. Any applicable shipping insurance c. The packaging and shipping if the item is delivered back to the Seller d. Insured under the Company art relic insurance policy (explained in detail later) indicate cohere (we point below) e.

The administration cost of the Company reaches 10% of all the expenses incurred as a result of client services provided. n. Any marketing and promotional expenses

3. Insurance coverage to be arranged by the Company a.

b.

Unless otherwise agreed by the Company, the Lot will be automatically insured under the the Company art relic policy in the amount as deemed appropriate by the Company. However, the insured amount is not the amount the Company undertakes to be successfully reached during the auction. The Company will collect 1% of the hammer price from the Seller or 1% of the reserve price if the Lot is not successfully auctioned. If the shipping is arranged by the Company, an

5. Commitments made by the Seller with respect to the Lot The standards for the Company to handle the Lots are provided hereunder. These standards also limit the relationship between the Seller and Buyer. In the event such standards are incorrect in any aspect, the Company or the Buyer may bring legal actions against the Seller. The Company should base the purchase and handling of auction items on the following undertaking made by the Seller: a. The Seller is the only owner of the Lot and has the unlimited right to assign his ownership to the Buyer which should not concern any third party right or claim (including copyright claims). b. The Seller complies with all the laws in connection with the import and export of auction items and any other laws and has notified the Company in writing any failure to comply with such rules in the past. c. The Seller has notified the Company in writing of any major modifications in the Lot to the best of his knowledge and any concern the third party has raised with respect to the ownership of the Lot and the condition. In the event of any inaccuracy of the above a, b and c, the Seller must guarantee, if requested, to indentify fully the Company and/or the Buyer all the claims, costs and expenses arising herefrom, whether caused by the Lot or the auction proceeds.

6. Auction arrangements a.

b.

c.

d.

The Company has absolute discretion over the description of the auction in the catalogue, display layouts, authentication opinions, location and method of the auction, who will be allowed to bid and the acceptance of the bid price, whether to seek professional opinion and whether to combine or separate the Lots. Any price estimates, whether verbal or written are strictly opinions and shall not serve as a guarantee of the final price for the Lot to be sold. The Seller cannot withdraw the Lot without obtaining consent from the Company. The Company reserves the right to withdraw the Lots for the following reasons. These reasons include: (1) The Company is doubtful about the definition or authenticity of the Lot or the accuracy of the statement referred to in Articles 5a, b. or c. (2) Any violations of the Transaction Agreement. (3) The Company deems it inappropriate to include the Lot in the auction. If the Company or the Seller withdraws the Lot, the Company may charge 40% of the Reserve set by the Seller and the amount equal to the service fee payable to the Company if the auction is successfully sold at the insured amount and applicable value added tax, insurance and other expenses.

7. Auction rules a.

b.

The Company will auction the item according to the Reserve. The Reserve may not be higher than the minimum of the estimates set in the catalogue except otherwise if the Reserve agreed is in a currency other than HK dollars and the Reserve is higher than the minimum of the estimates caused by the exchange rate fluctuation between the Reserve agreement day and the auction day. Under such circumstances, except where otherwise agreed by the Company, the Reserve shall be in HK dollars calculated by the exchange rate at the closing of the market the day immediately before the successful auction. If the bid price is lower than the Reserve, the Company is in no way to be held liable; however, the Company is entitled to auction the item at a price lower than the Reserve. If the Company so auctions the item, the Company is responsible to pay the Seller the difference between the closing price and the Reserve. The Seller may not increase the price of sale without fair reasons, nor participate in the bidding of his/her/its auction item(s), however, Ravenel is authorized to bid on behalf of the Seller at the price not higher than the Reserve Price.

8. After the successful auction a. Settlement Upon the successful auction, the Company will request the Buyer to make full payment no later than within 15 days, including the compensation payable by the Buyer. Upon payment by the Buyer, unless the Company receives a notice claiming such auction item is a counterfeit (as defined in Article 1 of the Transaction Agreement),

194

the Company will remit to the Seller within 60 days following the successful auction day an amount equal to the closing price taking away all the expenses payable by the Seller. In the event the Buyer delays the payment, the Company will remit to the Seller within 7 days following the payment by the Buyer. If for any reason the Company pays the Seller before the Buyer makes his payments, the Company acquires the full ownership of the item. However, if the Company is forced to reclaim the Lot from the Buyer because such item is a counterfeit, the Seller must return the auction proceeds to the Company. Unless otherwise instructed by the Seller in writing, the Company will make its payment in HK dollars. If the Seller requests to pay in currencies other than HK dollars, the exchange rate should be according to what the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) reports and the Company announces on the auction date. b. Non-payment by the Buyer If the Buyer fails to make all the payments due within 35 days following the auction day, the Company is entitled to negotiate special terms in connection with the payments, storage, and insurance on behalf of the Seller and act as deemed necessary by the Company to collect payments payable from the Buyer. However, the Company is not responsible for making remittance to the Seller nor for bringing any legal actions on behalf of the Seller. The Company will discuss with the Seller to adopt appropriate actions to claim auction payments from the Buyer. c. Counterfeits If the Buyer convinces the Company that the Lot is a counterfeit (as defined in Article 1 of the Transaction Agreement) within 10 days following the auction day, then (1) If the Buyer has not paid all or part of the payment, the Company is entitled to call off the transaction and/ or (2) If the Company at that time has paid all or part of the payments payable to the Seller, the Seller must return all the payments made to the Company if requested. The Company will exercise lien for the latter. Any items belonging to the Seller under control of the Company will be kept as security of the payments to be returned. d. Items not successfully auctioned Any items not successfully auctioned, not included in the auction or withdrawn from the auction for any reason must be collected by the Seller within 35 days upon notification by the Company to the Seller that he must reclaim the Lot. A storage fee of HK$300 per day per piece will be imposed on each item not collected after such 35 day period together with an additional charge for purchasing insurance coverage. The Seller may not reclaim such item until all the payments due are made. Such items may be removed to a third party warehouse if not collected in 60 days after the notification of collection is issued. The expenses arising therefrom shall be borne by the Seller.The Company may dispose of the Lot in the manner it deems appropriate if such item is not collected within 90 days following the auction date or the notice date (whichever is the earlier). Such disposal includes


removing the item to a third party warehouse with the associated expenses borne by the Seller and to auction such items under terms deemed appropriate by the Company (including the terms of estimates and the Reserve). The Company will pay the Seller the auction proceeds after payments owed are offset. The Company is authorized to act as the sole agent of the Seller within 2 months following the auction for any auction item withdrawn from the auction or not sold. The Company may auction in private the item based on the net amount the Seller may receive (the amount after deducting all the expenses payable by the Seller) or sell such item in private at a lower price agreed upon by the Company and the Seller. Under such circumstances, the Seller's responsibilities and liabilities to the Company are the same as during an auction.

9. Photographs and display The Company owns non-exclusive rights to the photographs, recordings and other reproduced images of the Lot. All the rights of such images shall belong to the Company and the company is entitled to use such images in any manner it deems appropriate.

10. Other Matters a. Taxes The payments payable by the Seller to the Company does not include any commodity or service tax or any other value added tax (whether imposed in the Taiwan or elsewhere). The Buyer should be responsible for paying such taxes pursuant to the tax rates and time provided by the law if there is any such applicable tax. b. Electrical and mechanical parts The Seller must be responsible for maintaining the safe operating condition of the electrical and mechanical parts of the Lots. The Seller must return to the Company all the claims, costs and expenses arising out of any violation of the said guarantee and warrantee by the Seller. There are other special additional conditions apply to this provision. The relevant conditions are available at the Company.

III. Definition Some of the phrases commonly seen herein are defined as follows: 1. "The Buyer" shall mean highest bidder accepted by the auctioning party. 2. "The Lot" shall mean the item delivered to the Company to be sold in an auction, especially the single or multiple pieces of items numbered in the catalogue. 3. "Hammer price" shall mean the highest bid with respect to one particular auction item accepted by the auctioning party. 4. "Compensation paid by the Buyer" shall mean the fee based on a certain percentage of the Hammer price paid by the Buyer; the percentage shall be as prescribed in Article 4a, section¢π. 5. "The Reserve" shall mean the lowest price agreed by the Company and Seller. the Lot cannot be sold at a price lower than such price.

6.

7.

"Counterfeit" shall mean the Lot constitutes imitation and the original concept of the imitation and its overall execution result in fraud to cause deception in connection with the author, history, year, age, culture or origin of the Lot, for which the accurate description is not reflected in the catalogue and the value of the Lot on the auction day is far less than the value it should have according to the description in the catalogue. Therefore, no auction item will become a counterfeit as a result of any damage and/or any repairing in any manner (including repaints). "Insured amount" shall mean the value of the insurance purchased for the Lot which the Company considers necessary under its absolute power from time to time (regardless whether such insurance is purchased by the Company).

IV. Terms applicable to both the Buyer and the Seller 1.

Any notice shall be deemed served to the recipient on the second day following delivery if sent by mail. If the recipient is abroad, the notice shall be deemed served on the fifth working day following delivery by mail.
