On New Chinese Painting
1993 to Chinese painting can be said to be a new Chinese painting. The development and deepening of China's reform shows the prospect of enriching the country and strengthening the people. Under a series of excellent forms of development, such as politics, science and technology, education, health, environmental protection, people's livelihood and finance, no matter how tragic the flood, earthquake and economic crisis were, the China Party and the people worked together in Qi Xin to overcome the difficulties quickly. The victory of the Olympic Games, all the spirits and materials of China have undoubtedly won the admiration and learning of people all over the world, and the environment is so sunny. It is imperative to remember that I proposed to reform Chinese painting in the 1980s and 1990s, and the times are calling. As a professional painter, I resolutely put down the original Chinese painting style. For 80 years, I have devoted myself to exploration and search, and made unremitting efforts to create new Chinese paintings. The new Chinese painting I created has been submerged by traditional people and traditional paintings for a long time, and I can only struggle during that gloomy period. Today's China is sunny, and the time has come to create a new China in an all-round way. First of all, I am deeply grateful to a municipal government and people for building the Shi Qi Art Museum for me and opening the Chinese paintings I have explored for 30 years to the public. She will be the lingering aura of China's new cultural and artistic construction.
What I am happy to do is to help me set up a new Chinese painting laboratory in Shi Qi with the help of the platform of the Chinese Studies Theory and Creation Class organized by Tsinghua University Academy of Fine Arts. The task is to let each student practice and create new Chinese paintings for half a year, and then compile the innovative Chinese paintings created after graduation into a book, and at the same time hold art exhibitions all over the country to set an example to promote the new China. I believe that the new Chinese painting has far-reaching significance in Tsinghua, a world-famous university and the Academy of Fine Arts, which used to be the Central Academy of Arts and Crafts. Its predecessor was sincerely promoted and assisted by a group of great artists with unique achievements in China. 2 1 century can predict that this will be a great era of the mainstream of new China painting.
People ask what is new Chinese painting? In a word, Chinese painting, which is different from traditional Chinese painting, is a new China painting. (I once said cautiously: "Chinese painting elements must account for 60%, and other elements are somewhat harmless." ) with this number, there is a new road and no confusion. In a hurry, the number of traditional painters accounted for more than 95%. Some people will say whether my above views and remarks will hurt the majority of traditional painters. Why not? I have been fascinated by traditional painting for twenty or thirty years. Don't you know the secret? From spirit to essence, from theory to style, the art of ancestors has benefited modern painters in thousands of years of profound culture, and I have benefited a lot. However, I was born in a new era, and I squandered a few dots, lines and faces on paper every day. Twenty or thirty years have passed, and there are no new elements and no new perspectives. With the rapid development of the times, people's needs and appreciation are constantly changing. I can't go in and out of the streets in ancient clothes. I am not reconciled. People who loved calligraphy and painting in the 1970s are still fresh in their memories. Even Liu Haisu, Li Keran, Lu and Shi Lu praised me. My ability to treat Chinese painting is not just "encouragement". Someone told me to "lay the foundation" or "basic skills", but I didn't agree. I am based on my own art. If you want to go to the west, some people advocate the method of total westernization to overthrow Chinese painting. Chinese painting is the end of the road; Down with traditional Chinese painting; It is the best policy to ignore the comments of some painters whose pen and ink are equal to zero. The key is Chinese painting, whether traditional or new, pen and ink first, style first, interest first and times first. These four firsts will be the insurmountable characteristics and scales of Chinese painting. The painting style of "three images in one" that I created today is actually an integral part of the new China painting.
Shi Qi Art Exhibition
The works on display this time are the most important works of Shi Qi since his creation, including The Legend of the New White Snake, Leifeng Pagoda, Impression of Water Village, Freedom in the Woods, Yangshuo and other works. These works create a strong and distinctive artistic conception of Chinese painting, and form a painting style combining concreteness, abstraction and impression. From the "fluency" of pen and ink to the "tension" of pen and ink, and then to the "artistic conception" of pen and ink, they explored a road of modern ink color expression that highlighted tension and movement.
Some art critics believe that in the art world, Shi Qi is the founder of contemporary new Chinese painting. His long-term exploration in the field of painting language and expression, as well as the change and continuous innovation of painting style, have made him a noticeable hot figure today. Shi Qi's paintings have strong styles and dazzling colors. In his artistic world, people see the spirit of the times with active thoughts, frank feelings and courage to explore. His thinking and practice touched the essence of China's painting language.
According to Dalian Wanda Group, Shi Qi's works will be exhibited in the Louvre in early 10. After the trip to France, exhibitions will be held in Italy, Germany and the United States. About 20 14 back to Beijing, exhibited in China Art Museum.
