水墨艺术与中国当代艺术,有待于重新开始,以形成自己语言风格且具有重要地位的艺术家、最近几年有新的突破代表作,且在学术上还没有明确讨论的艺术现象,再次开始一个新的阶段,真正让水墨走向世界!

新现代水墨艺术有待于把自身身上已经携带的现代性的“革命”因子加以三重“默化”(让“墨”与“默”内在谐动):“虚化”(水墨的自然性还原),“晕化”(水墨玉质感的灵晕还原)与“韵化”(个体生命与宇宙整体的节律共感),从而生成出新的艺术形态。与传统精神相关但经过了抽象化转化、与西方形式语言对话但又重新组合、吸收后现代影像技术但又回到水墨的宇宙通感,这是过去-现在-未来三重时间性的重新组合。如此三重时间性的生命共感与整合,是一种新的现代性反思,是一种新的“同时代性”。“当代性”(contemporaneity)的含义,不就是时间(time)、沉思(contemplation)与虚所(temple)的三重整合或“同时代”(con-temporary)的经验表达?中国的新现代艺术及是对同时代共通节庆的召唤!这也是对一种元语言与纯粹语言的想象建构。

本次展览按照以上学术标准挑选了几位艺术家,就新现代主义的水墨艺术展开讨论。这些作品代表了当今水墨艺术的最高水准,将会奠定未来水墨讨论的基石,让中国艺术经典化进入艺术史成为可能!

Rewriting modernity through “ink art” amounts to bringing ink into the setting of contemporary art, and making ink art to constantly revolutionize, but it also amounts to re-inkifying contemporary art. This “re-inkifying” is a “silencing” of revolution, a dual transformation. It is a “second revolution,” but this revolution is a “silent” one.

This calls for a threefold “silencing” (finding an inner harmony between ink and silence) of the revolutionary elements it already possesses: “infra-tizing” (restoration of the naturalness of ink), “aura-tizing” (the restoration of the aura of the jade texture of ink), and “resonating” (harmonic resonance between individual life and the overall universe), thus generating a new form of art. Unlike existing revolutionary methods, this is a “silenced” art: the more technical and artificial, the more naturally regenerative; the more graphic, the more absent-minded; the greater the sense of expanding volume, the more reserved. Through this, new tension takes form.
The living resonance and integration of these three forms of temporality constitute a new “con-temporariness,” a new modernity or contemporaneity. Is the meaning of “contemporaneity” not the expression of the integration of time, contemplation and temple, or “con-temporary”? China’s neo-modern art is a call to a shared celebration of the times! This is a new imagination of meta-language or pure language.

The artworks in this exhibition all come from mature artists who already possess their own independent languages and have all made their own contributions. Their latest works, however, have shown us contributions to a new world language, an originality of pure language. This “neo-modern art” brings people who enter this artistic experience into a new “con-temporary” magnetic field.
