圖畫手工’2007——圖畫手工第二回展
《圖畫手工’2007——圖畫手工第二回展》展覽于2007年11月10日——11月30日在北京索家村偏鋒新藝術空間舉行。圖畫手工展覽是偏鋒新藝術空間繼A+A展覽之外,又一個重要的年度展。9位年輕藝術家胡柳、胡聲平、黃洋、李紅軍、李傑、劉斌、劉文濤、邵鯤、許碩分別以平面和裝置作品來重新闡釋“圖畫手工”這個源自於近代中國最早的美術課程的名稱與概念。歷史上的圖畫手工開啟了中國美術的巨大嬗變,今天的展覽則呈現了藝術家對圖繪的新理解,藝術家重歸手工的勞作,感性的藝術創作回歸到理性的思考。在本次展覽將展出的作品中,我們可以看到藝術家所呈現的一種更為嚴謹的藝術狀態,創作手法和思想意念都進入一種更為縝密的邏輯體系。藝術家借助創作,通過更為實驗性的思考方式,以一種另類的科學方法呈現對外部世界價值觀的取捨。
Painting and Handwork’2007 - Painting and Handwork Second Exhibition
Painting and Handwork’2007 will be held at PIFO NEW ART STUDIOS located in Suojiachun, Beijing, from 10 to 30 November. Painting and Handwork is another annual exhibition of PIFO NEW ART STUDIOS following the A + A exhibition. This time, nine young artists, namely, Hu Liu, Hu Shengping, Huang Yang, Li Hongjun, Li Jie, Liu Bin, Liu Wentao, Shao Kun and Xu Shuo, re-interpret Painting and Handwork, a concept from the earliest art course in modern China, with graphic and installation works. While the Painting and Handwork course in history opened the gateway leading to the tremendous transformation of Chinese art, the exhibition will present the new understanding of the artists towards graphic and painting, and their reflection on the issue of artist returning to hand labour, and perceptual creation returning to the rational. From the works included in the exhibition one discerns a more rigorous state of art on the artists, whose means of production and ideas have both entered a more meticulous logic system. Through their creation and through a more experimental way of thinking, the artists demonstrate a choice for acceptance of or rejection to the values of the outside world with an alternative scientific method.
