何为时代,何为历史,何为偶像?当泸定桥上的勇士、开国大典上的领袖淡出历史舞台,永恒不变的场景却能默默无语地呈现历史。沪申画廊空旷的红色空间内,“无人的风景系列”将人们视觉的集体记忆向历史的精神场景转换。岳敏君,这位1962 年生于黑龙江大庆市,因其标志性的笑脸形象作品而成为中国最重要的当代艺术家之一,用其独特的历史反望,当下即是地制造了这种虚空。偶像缺失的虚空其实已经被另一种众神狂欢的景象所填充,只不过它们没有偶像的那种唯一性和确定性,21 世纪的影像时代,影和像,虚和实,难解难分,真假莫辨,于是,画家选择了空白,因而更有力量。这最冷清的场景,其 实也是最热闹的现实。
The Spirit Scenes from Time Past Yue Minjun Solo Exhibition of Paintings Series “Landscapes with No One” th rd :Duration: April 19 , 2010 – May 23 , 2010 rd :Opening Reception: May 3 , 6 – 8pm Address: No.3 the Bund, 3 Floor, 3 Zhongshan Dong Yi Road Shanghai
What is “time”? What is “history”? And what are “idols”? When the warriors on the Luding Bridge and the leaders on the Tian’an Men fade from the stage, there will still be eternal scenes reflecting history silently. In the vast red space of the Shanghai Gallery of Art, Yue Minjun’s painting series “Landscape with No One” transfers people’scollective visual memories into the spirit scenes from times past. With his special retrospection on history in the present moment, the void without idols is filled with a different scene of chaos, with nothing as unique or certain as an idol. In the 21st century - the age of the image - it is difficult to distinguish between
illusion and image, the virtual and the real, so the artist chooses blankness to win more power. The most desolate scene reflects the noisiest reality.
Born in 1962 in Daqing, Yue Minjun is one of the most leading artists in the Chinese contemporary artists, especially famous for his signature paintings of smiling faces.
