袁元:关于今日个展的自述

2016-01-05 17:43

  我对今日美术馆个展的基本设想是将我的绘画实践由现实主义传统转向一种极为个人的视角。我希望展览的现场弥漫上神秘的气氛,牵引观众跳脱他们的日常琐事与烦恼,在参观的体验中得到片刻的放松并洞察人类生存的状况以及人类得以超越特质与精神层面的可能。具体到画面上我想表现的是“精灵的游荡”或者“飘荡的灵魂”这样的意象。我试图通过利用油画转印之后的斑驳的、有所缺失的“网络”化的人体形象体现原始、本质的“人”的灵魂或精灵。灵魂应当是可见而又可以被“透视”的,而转印之后的人体形象恰恰契合这一点。通过人体失重的形态、动态来体现处于高速发展社会环境中现代人空虚、紧张、不安、失衡的心理状态和弥散在现代人群中的世纪末的情绪。

  大致的展览构想是以转印在镜面不锈钢(2.4m×1.2m)上的男、女人体组成某种阵型,以绘画装置的形态陈列在今日美术馆一号馆的大厅中央,每块镜面以某种不确定的角度朝向十几米高的展厅顶棚或四周墙面上的绘画。观众将从镜面中看到转印的人体形象、观众自己以及墙壁上的绘画,从而引发某种思考。墙面的绘画将由3m×3m大小的十二幅布面油画/丙稀组成,这些画面由带有梦幻色彩和抽象意味的宇宙空间的图像组成。画面中有些有转印的人体,有些则没有,它们更像一个个不确定而又未知的空间,充满梦幻、宛如云、大气、深渊、星云等等的意象,赤裸而又模糊的男、女人体如游荡的灵魂般飘浮于这些梦境般的虚无空间,被未知的强大力量控制,或被抛离,或坠落,渺小、孤独、无助的他(她)们无目的的飘荡,仿佛如宇宙初开时的创世纪景象,又仿佛人类自我毁灭之后的末日幻象。在回归尘埃的悲剧之中又孕育新生的希望,这是“灭·生”的主题,而以“灭·生”为题的系列创作是我很多年来一直感兴趣的一个主题。我想这是一个有关警醒与希望的主题。

  Yuan Yuan: Self- statement on Solo Exhibition in TodayArt Museum

  My basic idea for the solo exhibition in Today ArtMuseum is to change my painting practice from the traditional realism to a verypersonal perspective. I am trying to fill the exhibition area up with a kind ofmysterious atmosphere, which could drag the audiences out of their daily choresand annoyance, and provide them even a moment of relaxation in the experienceof visiting, and help them develop an insight into the state of human existence,as well as the possibility on the humanity beyond its characteristics andspiritual level. Specifically in the expressions of paintings, what I want toconvey is the imagery of “Wandering of Spirits” or “Drifting Soul”, I try touse those mottled and networked nudes by painting transferring to reflect theprimitive and essential human soul or spirits. I think the soul should bevisible and could be penetrated, and the images of human body after transferprinting dramatically just match this point.

  Through the weightlessness of body shapes and dynamicconditions,the works reflect modernpeople’s unbalanced psychological state of emptiness, tension and anxiety inthe rapidly-developing social environment, and the gloom of the end of thecentury that dispersed in modern people.

  My general exhibition conception is using the transferprinting of male and female bodies(2.4m×1.2m)on mirror-like stainless steel to form acertain formation, displayed in the centre of the exhibition hall of BuildingNo.1, Today Art Museum. Every surface of mirror facing towards the ceiling ofthe hall, which over 10 meters high, or facing the paintings on the walls atdifferent angles that audience would see the transfer printed images of humanbodies, audience themselves and the paintings on the wall all around, therebyto trigger some thinking. The works on the walls will consist of 12 pieces ofoil painting on canvas/ acrylic (3m×3m), those pictures make up by the images withiridescent sheen and abstract cosmic spaces, nudes are transfer printed in someof these paintings, while other pictures remain unmanned. In this respect, theyare more likely to be an uncertain and undiscovered space, full of illusionaryimagery, like clouds, atmosphere, abyss, nebulae and so on. The naked and mistyhuman bodies floating in the dream-like empty space, controlled by an unknownpower, may be thrown off or falling down. The frail, forlorn and unassisted maleor female in the pictures is drifting aimlessly, as if at the beginning of theuniverse of Genesis, or the phantom of the Doomsday after the self-destructionof mankind. New life comes from the tragedy of returning to dust, this is thetheme of Arising and Ceasing, which Ihave been interested in for years, and I think, this is a topic about warning andhope.
