五音不全
我們所處的時代是個極端物質化的時代，每每回想逝去的那段傻X年代，感覺是蠻精神化的。我們也從小時候的“無産階級”長成了現在的“小資産階級”，既然是“小資産階級”當然喪失了年少時革命鬥志，卻增長了一些小資産者的感傷，我們也學會流淚了！學會懷舊了。現在的我們如一群在河水中游弋的、慌張的小魚，在追憶憂傷的情感漩渦中折騰著，雖然大家有些忙亂，方向卻沒有迷失，慢慢的靠近，靠近浩瀚的江海——靠近當今的文化主流。
藝術家虹舒的作品以玩世的情態，簡約的筆意調侃逝去那段花樣年華，以其獨特的視角，描繪了那段早已封存的記憶。
藝術家法明的作品以自身的情感經歷為主題，表現主義的繪畫風格，用有生命、靈動的筆觸表現生命中的美麗與感傷。它是一位在心靈的荒原上游走的詩人。
藝術家張乙迪的作品是用幽默的手法，譏諷人們在慾望遊戲中的百態，他是一位帶著微笑批判現實主義的藝術家。
藝術家賈立龍的作品以女性人體為主題，揭示人性潛在的本能意識與慾望，淋漓寫意的手法具有中國式的韻味與意境。
藝術家寶印的作品以童年的經歷為主題，揭示紅色年代群體無意識狀態下的靈魂，表現傻X年代的恐懼、無奈、自由漂泊的生命狀態。
審視當今社會：人性的異化與現實的荒謬，導致了群體無意識的大眾式的荒謬，而藝術又是一個極其荒謬的遊戲——一個荒謬的夢的遊戲。
五位藝術家也是捲入這場夢想遊戲的夢中人。藝術家們有著不同的經歷與思想，不同的情感與不同的情感表達形式，他們將內心涌出的夢想與感傷，以不同的主題融入了當下文化的情結，成為當代藝術參與者與實踐者。雖然他們生長于那紅色的年代，卻坦然地接受著當今文化的影響，藝術家們用不同的聲音傾訴著他們內心的情結，這聲音似一首老歌，唱出那內心深處的記憶！

Five singers’ symphony
We are experiencing an era of materialism. Every time when I think about those Cultural Revolution years, which I joke as “ fools’ celebration”, I feel that we were spirituality oriented in those days. And as time goes by, we all have grown from proletariats with fighting will into so-called petty bourgeois, who begin to be more sentimental and reminiscent. Nowadays, even though we are tangled in the sad recollection of the old days, just like nervous fish struggling in a river, we are still going towards the vast ocean — the mainstream of today’s culture.
Hong Shu’s works keep bantering those old beautiful days with her cynical attitude and brief style, showing us the covered memory with a unique perspective.
Fa Ming bases the theme of his works on his own emotional experiences. He depicts the beauty and sorrow of life with a vivid and expressional tone. He is a poet wandering on the waste land of his soul.
Zhang Yidi mixes humor into his drawings to taunt diversified people seduced by desire. He becomes an artist criticizing realism with a smile.
In Jia Lilong’s works, female body is the only star. It is presented by the way of traditional Chinese painting stroke, so-called “freehand brushwork”, to show the unique taste of Chinese. By those drawings, he uncovers the hidden instinct and desire of human beings.
Bao Yin targets his works at his children’s days to show the spirit under group-unconsciousness in those Cultural Revolution years, and demonstrates the fearful, helpless and aimless state during the whole “fool’s celebration”.
When we look at the contemporary society carefully, we can clearly see that the dissimilation in human nature and absurdity in reality lead to the mass irrationality featured by group-unconsciousness. Meanwhile, art is another irrational game, in which everybody dreams an incredible dream.
The five artists are among the dreamers who play the irrational game called “art”. Artists have their unique experiences and minds. By demonstrating different feelings in different ways, they release their dreams and sadness underneath. In the path of mixing various themes into the popular cultural complex, they become the members and pioneers of the art in our time. Although they underwent the Cultural Revolution, they can still accept the influence of the contemporary culture. They express their inner voice in different tones. The tones, just like a symphony, bring back the memory in the heart of hearts.
