![]() 2020 看 2020 文/ 蓝庆伟
2020像是一份试卷,在农历庚子年春节来临之际,对所有人公布了标准答案。虽然手握答案,但解决不了历经疫情的惶恐与不安。伴随着“明天会更好”这样的话语,记忆中“历史”的起点常常被定格在今天,而不再是历史学的昨天,于是遗忘成为人们记忆的常态。在时间发条的“咔咔”声中,人们既都迫不及待地期盼——那充满未知的——明天的到来,也心如火焚地期待今天早点过去。怀着这样的心态,仍未完全过去的2020年新冠疫情似乎早已是九霄云外的“历史”,昨天仅仅成为了大海中的时间坐标。
不论是“艺术当随时代”还是“艺术进入历史”,2020年堪称历史的转折之年,无数的艺术家主动或无意识地参与了与疫情相关的创作,或任务、或宣传、或歌颂、或投机……一时间“疫情展”成为了高频词汇,却鲜有人认真聆听身在疫情中心的同胞的内心感受。与年初成都蓝顶美术馆举办的四川艺术家的“真实与理想:艺术家的2020”展览相似,“真实与理想:湖北当代艺术2020”是一次集中呈现湖北当代艺术展览样貌的展览。在展览策划上,策展人有意放弃了学术主题,而更希望能呈现一种朴素的效果,不论作品是否与疫情有关,这些作品都在讲述湖北艺术家内心的真实反应:或处事不惊、或感人至切、或延续过往……
如果站在未来的时间点翻阅2020,希望这次由不同艺术家不同状态所组成的湖北当代艺术2020的抽样样本,也能映射翻阅者内心的真实。

2020 is like a test paper. When the Spring Festival of the Gengzi Year of the Lunar Calendar is approaching, the standard answers are announced to everyone. Although we have the answers in our hands, they cannot solve the fear and uneasiness experienced by the epidemic. Accompanied by the words "tomorrow will be better", the starting point of "history" in memory is often fixed in today, not the yesterday of history, so forgetting has become the normal state of people's memory. Amidst the "click" sound of clockwork, people can't wait to look forward to the arrival of tomorrow—that full of unknowns—and also eagerly look forward to the early passing of today. With such a mentality, the 2020 new crown epidemic that has not yet completely passed seems to have long been "history" beyond the sky, and yesterday has only become a time coordinate in the sea. Whether it is "art should follow the times" or "art enters history", 2020 can be regarded as a turning point in history. Speculation... For a while, "epidemic development" became a high-frequency vocabulary, but few people listened carefully to the inner feelings of compatriots in the epicenter of the epidemic. Similar to the "Truth and Ideal: Artists' 2020" exhibition held by Sichuan artists at Chengdu Blue Roof Art Museum at the beginning of the year, "Truth and Ideal: Hubei Contemporary Art 2020" is an exhibition that focuses on presenting the appearance of contemporary art exhibitions in Hubei. In planning the exhibition, the curators intentionally gave up academic themes, and hoped to present a simple effect. Regardless of whether the works are related to the epidemic or not, these works are all about the true inner reactions of Hubei artists: either they are not alarmed, or Touching, or continuation of the past... If you look through 2020 from a point in time in the future, I hope that this sample of Hubei Contemporary Art 2020, composed of different artists in different states, can also reflect the inner truth of the readers. exhibition time October 24, 2020 - January 23, 2021 Exhibition location Hall 1, Chengdu Blue Roof Art Museum curator Lan Qingwei participating artists Cai Ying, Chen Bo, Fu Zhongwang, Gong Jian, Lin Xin, Li Juchuan, Li Jikai, Li Yu + Liu Bo, Lang Xuebo, Ma Liuming, Tang Xiao, Wang Qingli, Wei Guangqing, Xu Wentao, Yuan Xiaofang, Yang Guoxin, Zheng Da, Zhou Hong, Zhan Rui, Zhang Wenbo ![]() 唐骁创作的以上色丙烯木板拼接而成的抽象立体作品,将平面延展到三维体块上,原本作为三维幻象的视觉中心一跃成为了真实的实体,其上色彩的涂抹痕迹几乎触手可及。对于观看者而言,无疑直接提供了崭新的观看体验。一如艺术家所言“用经验和这张画构置世界——这个过程是可以被逆转的。让墙变成起点,人变成终点。一件立体作品上墙后,墙是主体,像树干,作品是树枝,或是砍在墙面的斧头。树干是完结的地方,它生长出来向人延伸,终点是人。大概两米处,作品有一米的深度,人和作品之间就是艺术家构建的空间和观看经验的状况。”
——节选自《湖北美术学院报》2019年第3期《唐骁:观看未知——见陌生的重逢》 Tang Xiao’s abstract three-dimensional work made of the above colored acrylic wood panels extends the plane to a three-dimensional block, and the visual center that was originally a three-dimensional illusion has suddenly become a real entity, and the traces of color smearing on it are almost tangible and. For viewers, it undoubtedly directly provides a new viewing experience. As the artist said, "Construct the world with experience and this painting - this process can be reversed. Let the wall become the starting point, and the person becomes the end point. After a three-dimensional work is placed on the wall, the wall is the main body, like a tree trunk , the work is a branch, or an ax that cuts on the wall. The trunk is the place where it ends, it grows out and extends to people, and the end point is people. About two meters away, the work is one meter deep, and the space between the people and the work is the artist’s construction space and the state of the viewing experience.” Starting from the realistic art tradition, to thinking about the so-called three-dimensional illusion in the modern and contemporary context, Tang Xiao has made continuous attempts and breakthroughs in his own artistic creation. An artist's thinking will never stop. ——Excerpt from "Hubei Academy of Fine Arts Newspaper" Issue 3, 2019 "Tang Xiao: Watching the Unknown——Seeing the Reunion of Strangers" |
