来自海一侧的凝望        The boat of aesthetics from the other side of the sea


来自海另一侧的美学之舟  

 

(文 | 张正霖博士)

 


张庭群先生是我许多年的好友,在2005年时,我即与他和他的创作相遇,并留下很深刻的印象。我们都是学习美术的人,虽然从海峡的两侧,在不同的时间里走上各自的艺术之路,但也因此让我对于庭群的艺术,有着不同的、甚或是更深一层的阅读空间,并且体会其中的况味。

 这 样的表达,似乎暗指着我们将依靠某种作品的发生学(Embryology),来解释庭群的创作。彷佛有个最内在的动机,等待观者抽丝剥茧地来检视艺术家, 由浅入深、由表象而进入真实。此处,我反而想试着逆转此一过程。倘若作品中所展现出的视觉形式和语汇,便是画家唯一能够将意义传达给观者的媒介,不需依靠 过度的言语。那么,回到作品,便成为你我最有意义的、体会艺术的美学之舟。藉由乘坐着它,靠近我们的艺术家。

 作品诉诸于观者的视觉和脑海,并在剎那间凝聚成意趣不一的心象。许多时候,心象是具有温度的,即使看似莫名,内里却蕴藏着生存的脉动。观者与作者也于此处连结,在互相凝望中产生可能的共感。意在言外,却已然包含在形式之中。

 由 此思索,作品除了是作者的自我表现外,她同时也一次次邀请观者打开新的意义世界。形式与风格是第一义,若我们将视线投向庭群较早期的创作,便可发现,他的 创作语汇不断由具象,朝向抽象的境域迈进。亦或可进一步说,张庭群将他的作品里的指涉,不断还原、不断简约、不断结晶。这是艺术家成熟的过程,某种程度上 也象征着他与创作的关系,愈发深沈。

 张 庭群早期的作品,再现着当代中国发展中的城市意象,以及里头跃然的人性欲望。在亮眼的背景中,城市作为演化中的符号,与传统追求吉祥的器皿相互结合。今古 交会,也从而为我们犀利点出当代社会精神面貌的某个侧面,构成反思的纵深。而在约2010年前后,城市意象在他的画作里渐次隐身,取而代之的是拥有哲思的 线条、色块与凝聚的氛围。如《2010.6.11》一作,便由多彩的线条,不规则的构筑出恍若心绪的时空,彷佛音声与言语彼此交错、牵系。而在 《2011》与《2012.10.17》两作里头,色彩愈发的简单,层次则愈发的丰富,展现出作者坚实的绘画技巧。站在此岸,创作者有如一位技艺高超的指 挥家,向距离不等的彼岸上的观者传达旋律,而一波波海浪,便是那些画中的线条、笔触和色调。浪拍击着视觉接收的彼岸,也彷佛在敲打着无声之音,而观者则向 化身为知音人,屡屡聆听着这无声中的、秘密的、生命的歌曲。

抽 象性的作品,其真谛远不在于解答,而在于直观。透过抚触画作中的每个韵律、舒张和节点,去沁入生命经验的种种。庭群的《2010.12.31》,以及之后 的《2012.8.29》,乃至《2014.8.6》,绘画内的空间俨然被滋长中的线条所不断侵蚀、占据、包裹,这是否也隐喻着艺术家在创作之时的内心世 界呢?答案终究是甚多层次的,但可以肯定的是,当我们在尝试接近与屡屡述说着作品所蕴含的世界时,我们即已在走进一个美感经验构筑成的宇宙。主、客体之间 的隔阂,亦将暂时遭到屏弃。而只有优秀的、具有潜质的,对人性具有观照的艺术家,能为我们指向此一境界。

张庭群的壮年,和所富有的创作能量,我相信他将在这个已然召唤出的境界里,为你我走得更深、更深。驱策着我们所搭乘的美学之舟,往更澄明、更生气盎然、更丰沛有情的境地走去。

 

The boat of aesthetics from the other side of the sea


(Article | Dr. Zhang Zhenglin)


Mr Zhang Tingqun is my friends for many years, in 2005, I met him and his creation, and left a deep impression. We are all learning art, although from both sides of the straits, in the different time onto the road of their art, but also so let me for the division of art, has a different, or even a deeper reading space, and to know the condition.

The expression, and seems to be dark, pointing to we will rely on the genesis (Embryology) in some works, to explain the creation of the division of. As there is a the most intrinsic motivation, the cobwebs waiting for the viewer to examine the artist, distinguished, into the real by appearances. Here, I want to try to reverse the process. If the works displayed in the form of visual and vocabulary, is the painter only medium to communicate meaning to the viewer, does not need to rely on excessive words. Then, back to work, become my most meaningful, you experience the raft of artistic aesthetics. By taking it, close to our artists.

Works to resort to the viewer's vision and mind, and in a moment's interest and condensed into a different heart like. Many times, the heart is like temperature, even seem baffling, but inside contain the pulsation of survival. The viewer and the author also links here, possible empathy in gazing at each other. This paper, are already included in the form.

The thinking, work besides is the author of the self-expression, she also invite the viewer to open the new meaning world. Form and style is the first righteousness, if we turn our attention to court the creation of the group of earlier, can be found that his vocabulary by representational, toward the realm of the abstract. Or can be further says Zhang Tingqun will refers to, in his works constantly reduction, contracted, continuous crystallization. This is a process of mature artists, to some extent, also a symbol of his relationship with creation, more and more deep.

Division of the early works of the contemporary China in the development of city image, and in moving human desire. In the background of bright eye, and the city as a symbol of evolution, combined with the traditional pursuit of auspicious vessels. Gujiao, today also to our sharp points out the one side of the contemporary social spirit. Constitutes a deep reflection. In about 2010 years before and after the city image in his paintings gradually stealth, instead with lines and colors of philosophizing with condensed atmosphere. Such as "2010.6.11" for the first time, then by the colorful lines, irregular build out of the ashes of the mood of the time and space, as the intersect, enhancing the sounds and words. In the "2011" and "the 2012.10.17" for the two, colour is more simple, level are increasingly rich, showing the author solid painting skills. Stood on the shore, the creator as a skilled conductor to convey to the ranging distance from the viewer on the other side of the melody, and a wave wave, is those lines in the picture, brushwork and color. Waves slap on the other side of the visual receive, also as if he were banging silent voice, while the viewer to become soul mate, often listen to the silent, secret, life in the song.

Abstract works, its essence is not the answer, but in the intuitive. Through touch painting each rhythm, blood and node, to your life experience. Division of 2010.12.31, and later the 2012.8.29, and even the 2014.8.6, painting in the line of the space has been growing continuously eroded, occupy, package, whether this is a metaphor of artists in the creation of the inner world of the? Answer to what is, after all, multi-level, but what is certain is that when we are trying to close and repeatedly telling works contained in the world, we have entered a aesthetic experience built into the universe. Gap between the main, object, will temporarily was dismissed. And only good, have the potential, artists of human nature has witness, for us to the realm.

Zhang Tingqun prime of life, and the rich creative energy, I believe he will be in the state of this raises a already, for you I go deeper and deeper. Drives what we take the boat of aesthetics, the more transparent, more exuberant, more abundant sentient beings of the situation.
