The freehand brushwork of life in the eighth five-year plan period

For contemporary China fine arts, the' 85 trendy fine arts movement is an unforgettable fiery memory. The "China Modern Art Exhibition" from 65438 to 0989 ended in a dispute of praise and criticism, but it still left a deep impression on the whole art world and had a far-reaching impact on contemporary art in China.

After more than 20 years, we can have a relatively calm and objective evaluation of this movement: the starting point of the "85" new wave art movement is a reversal of the alienation of art as a political discourse tool during the "Cultural Revolution" and a trend of returning to the artistic ontology. However, under the influence of the whole social and cultural situation in the middle and late 1980s, it quickly deviated from the original track and got involved in a national spiritual liberation and cultural innovation movement, in which it played the role of a deep-water bomb. What it thinks, pays attention to and criticizes has gone far beyond the so-called artistic problems in the past, but all social and cultural problems.

Yang Shufeng's life freehand brushwork art was also formed at the same time and space, but he was a "fish escaping from the net" in the so-called mainstream art circle at that time. Social development environment and personal life experience also promoted his exploration of elite art at that time, but his unique personality and living environment in the northwest frontier made his understanding of "exploration" deviate from the mainstream concept of the so-called modern elite art circle in China at that time. Unlike his colleagues who were also creating modern art at that time, he did not look for the end-result of art in various western philosophical concepts and cultural concepts, but explored the noumenon of art from his own heart and life, looking for the true end-result of art. He used his life to play games and freehand brushwork with art, which has never stopped for 30 years. This introverted exploration has made him more and more lonely in society, but richer in spirit.

Yang Shufeng's works in this period are all around the meaning of life, the value of art, the establishment of pure artistic language and artistic spirit, and he has created a large number of works with different materials and means. His works are like his diary. In a short period of five or six years, he completed the integration of realism, expression, abstraction, concept, behavior, propaganda and other artistic languages with life, leaving more than 500 works of freehand brushwork in life. If there is no strong internal vitality, how can you complete so many works in the state of exploration! There is only one reason, that is, he has forgotten the creation itself, but is using his life to freehand brushwork.

Of course, Yang Shufeng's unique absence from the ranks of China' 85 trendy art also made him create an alternative system in another wilderness. His works are a game of life, unrestrained and freehand, seemingly irregular, but show real order in an irregular state.

The value of Yang Shufeng's works lies in that his artistic creation has never deviated from the exploration of the fundamental issue of artistic noumenon, and it is a successful conquest of the viewer in human nature, spirit and life. His art embodies and runs through life, and he can communicate with people across time, space and culture. At this time, an exhibition of 333 Yang Shufeng's works of art was held (1979- 1989), so that the audience could not only share his artistic achievements and life experiences, but more importantly, correct people's spiritual cognitive deviation of the "85 trendy art" movement, let people find artistic value in the spiritual level from the 85 elite culture, and push the whole society towards culture. This exhibition includes paintings, documents and pictures. The audience will feel the evolution and establishment of the artist's artistic style more realistically. The materials used in the works are various, including oil painting, ink painting, cardboard painting, wood carving and pottery (pictures).

For a long time in the past, some so-called artists established illusory artistic language for dialogue with the West, and achieved temporary success while seeking recognition, but this led to the exhaustion of artistic vitality and brought great harm to artistic creation, thus resulting in a very serious fact that culture and art were backward. China in 2 1 century attracted the world's attention, and so did China's contemporary art. Therefore, it is timely to develop pure works of art with strong vitality, which requires the long-term cooperation of all artists who love and respect art in Qi Xin. ..

Fortunately, thirty years ago, Yang Shufeng was already a pioneer in the pursuit of artistic knowledge and practice. Let's * * enjoy the life freehand brushwork art produced by the collision of vitality and society in the exhibition, * * * enjoy this visual and spiritual feast, and * * * feel a life art journey belonging to all mankind.

85 impressions of life

Art Exhibition of 333 Works of Art (1979- 1989), Yang Shufeng

foreword

For contemporary art in China, the' 85 Modern Art Movement is a fiery and unforgettable memory. 1989 China Contemporary Art Exhibition ended in uproar and quarrel, but it still left a deep impression on the whole art world and had a far-reaching impact on contemporary art in China.

After a lapse of 20 years, we have been able to give a more sober and objective evaluation of this movement: the beginning of the 85 modern art movement is the beginning of art backwash, because art has been alienated into a political discourse tool during the Cultural Revolution, and the 85 modern art movement is a trend of returning to the art itself. However, under the influence of the whole social and cultural environment in the middle and late 1980s, it quickly deviated from the original track and became a pioneer in the national spiritual liberation and cultural reform movement. What it thinks, pays attention to and criticizes has gone far beyond the so-called art category, covering all social and cultural issues.

Yang Shufeng, one of the 85 alternative artists, formed his life impression art at the same time and space. However, he is a fish that escapes the so-called mainstream art world. The environment of social development and his personal life experience urged him to explore the elite art at that time, and his unique personality characteristics and his living conditions in the northwest frontier made him deviate from his understanding of "exploration" and the mainstream concept of the so-called modern elite art world at that time. On the issue of art ontology, he didn't look for the artistic destination from western philosophy and cultural values like his colleagues, but found the real artistic destination from his inner self and his own life. For thirty years, he has been enjoying the game of life with freehand brushwork without interruption. This inward exploration makes him more and more isolated in society, but increasingly rich in spirit.

His creation in this period began with the establishment of the meaning of life, the value of art, pure artistic language and artistic spirit, and he created a lot of works with different materials and different means. His works are like his diary, and he himself, through the integration of life and many artistic languages, including realism, expression, abstraction, concept, behavior and publicity, left 500 works of freehand brushwork in life in just five or six years. Without internal force, how could he have completed so many works in the state of exploration! There is only one explanation, that is, he has forgotten the creation itself, but painted with life.

Of course, among the 85 modern arts in China, Yang Shufeng's absence made him gain a wasteland and create a special system. His works are games of life and old freehand brushwork, seemingly irregular, but reveal the real order.

The value of Yang Shufeng's works lies in his consistent and impartial exploration of artistic noumenon, and also in his successful conquest of the viewer in the aspects of humanity, spirit and life. His art reflects life, runs through life and can communicate with people across time, space and culture. At this time, holding an art exhibition of 333 pieces of Yang Shufeng's freehand brushwork of' 80s life (1979- 1989) will not only allow the audience to share his artistic achievements and life experiences, but also correct people's spiritual and conscious deviation from the' 80s modern art movement, let people find spiritual and artistic value from the' 80s elite culture, push the rational thinking of artistic culture to the whole society, and call on the society to respect the pure humanity. The exhibition works are some works created by the author in1980s (1979-1989), including paintings, literature and pictures. The audience will feel the evolution and establishment of the artist's artistic style more stereoscopically and truly. Artists use a variety of materials, including oil painting, ink painting, cardboard painting, sculpture, pottery (painting) and so on.

For a long time in the past, some so-called artists established unreal artistic language for dialogue with the West, which led to the exhaustion of artistic vitality while seeking recognition. Although they achieved temporary success, they did great harm to artistic creation and caused serious artistic and cultural lag. In the 21st century, China has won the world's attention, and China's contemporary art has also attracted the world's attention, which has brought an opportunity for the development of pure works of art with strong vitality, which requires the joint efforts of all artists who love and respect art.

Fortunately, thirty years ago, Yang Shufeng had become a pioneer in the pursuit of artistic truth and artistic practice. Let's share these freehand brushwork art of life, which is collided by vitality and society, and this feast of vision and spirit, and enjoy a life art journey of all mankind.
