 STATEMENT

 

    "Transparent" refers to the materials I have used, occasionally since 1972, and which I feel will become a permanent concern.

     

      I make abstract sculpture because the standard set in recent years by some abstract sculptors is of the very highest level . I want my own art to continue on-wards in that rich vein.

 

     This is not to say there is no room in my heart for figurative or other forms of sculpture. As a Modernist, I approach all art with an open eye. Modernism is not a style but an attitude which is open to any art, the only rule being 'quality first'.

 

    One of my sources of inspiration are Norwegian Stave Churches. Small and high, looking like enormous sculptures, especially at Urnes whose relief sculptures inspired me to make my first art works at Suo Jia Cun in Beijing. The reason being that they felt like ancient Chinese relief art and the Viking influence extended far into Europe. But where did it come from ?

 

   The greatest sculpture from 4000 years ago inspires me as much as that of the last 100 years. Sculpture has a great heritage which must be maintained , and my ambition is to continually make that all out try.

‘透现’ 指向那些我从1972年以来偶然间所使用的材料，我认为它们会成为经久的关注点。

创作抽象雕塑是因为近年内一些抽象雕塑家建立起了非常高的创作标准，我期盼自身的艺术能以这种丰富的脉络内涵继续进行。

但这并不意味着我心中没有空间留给具象或者其他形式的雕塑艺术，作为一个现代主义者，我以开放的视角接触各类艺术。现代主义不是一种风格，而是一种态度，一种开放于任何艺术的态度，唯一的准则是“品质优先”。

我的灵感之一是挪威的木板教堂，小而高，看起来像巨大的雕塑，特别是在乌尔内斯木板教堂内的浮雕雕塑激发了我在北京索家村制作出个人的第一件作品，原因正在于它们既有着类似于中国古代浮雕艺术的色彩又传递了维京文化远远延伸到欧洲内部的影响。 但是，它又是从何而来呢？

4000年前最伟大的雕塑给我带来了与过去100年间相似的灵感。 雕塑这门艺术有着宏伟且必须保持的传统，而我的目标正是全力以赴地不断尝试。
