紐約中國藝術家是一個獨特的存在,而“多面”紐約當代藝術展正是力圖展現(xiàn)這個群體的多元性-盡管他們共同植根于中國文化。這不僅體現(xiàn)在這8位參展藝術家截然不同的背景上,更多體現(xiàn)在作品的表現(xiàn)手段和媒質上。沒有什么能比“多面”更能體現(xiàn)紐約這座城市了——那就是文化的多元和豐富性。
徐唯辛作品
這8位藝術家都出生在中國,深受東方文化之侵染,然后不約而同地選擇了紐約作為生活和藝術的重生之地。他們有初來乍到的新移民,也有從小就漂洋過海的老紐約;有功成名就的著名藝術家,亦有初出茅廬的年輕學生。他們有的接受了中國大陸一流美院的嚴格訓練,有的則完全成長于美國的藝術教育系統(tǒng),也有人東西兼容,得宜于中美藝術教育之精華。
在這樣截然不同的背景下,每個人的作品當然就有了極富具個性而又豐富的呈現(xiàn)。這次展出的作品既有比較傳統(tǒng)的油畫,水墨, 也有利用數(shù)碼技術制作的多媒體。有抽象也有具象,選擇的題材更是千變萬化。
徐進作品
“多面”可以解釋為多人多面,更多地隱喻了藝術家們作品里折射的文化上的多面性。他們在有意與無意間,憑借著作品在不同程度上反映出多種文化的沖擊和影響。所謂“畫如其人”,作品必然是藝術家內在精神世界和觀點的一個強烈折射,每個人自身文化的烙印都會不由自主地轉移到作品之中,每個人的情緒都以不同的方式融入那些變換的色彩和微小的筆觸之中。更重要的是所有的作品都討論了作者的人文情懷和現(xiàn)實社會的某種關聯(lián),有的基于自身體驗,有的是從容旁觀;有的是冷靜的反思者,有的則為激昂的吶喊者。
陳向東作品
不同的人群,加上每個人獨特的解讀,于是就生成了這次不同凡響的“多面”。它和我們所摯愛的城市一樣,在多元的這個大框架之下允許每個人都有充分表現(xiàn)自己個性的機會。這就是多面的紐約精神,更是置身其中的當代藝術的精髓和面貌。

"Multifaceted" New York Contemporary Art Exhibition
Introduction
Chinese American artists in New York is an unique existence. "Multifaceted" New York Contemporary Art Exhibition is trying to capture the diversity of their spirit-even though they were all born in China. This is not only reflected in the different background of 8 participated artists, but more reflected in the approach and media of their works. Nothing can be better represented the city of New York than "multifaceted". That is the diversity and richness of culture。
楊華作品
These artists were all born in China with deep influence of eastern culture and invariably chose New York as the place of rebirth for their lives and art. Among them are immigrants and New Yorkers who have lived here since their childhood. There are not only accomplished artists, but also recent college graduates, some of them have been trained in the top art academies in mainland China, while others grew up completely in the American education system and were able to benefit from both systems. With these totally different backgrounds, each work presents a very unique and rich individuality.
盛迅芒作品
The exhibition includes traditional oil painting and Chinese ink, multi-media digital art. They range from abstract to realistic work with ever-changing themes and styles.
"Multi-faceted" can be interpreted as people of many faces, but more of a metaphor for the artist's works in the reflection of the cultural diversity. Intentionally and unintentionally, they reflect the strong impact of a variety of cultural and life experience. The so-called "painting as its artist", the work is a mirror of the artist's inner spiritual world, each person's own culture will involuntarily transferred to their arts and personal emotions will imprint into those transformations of color and strokes. More importantly, all of the works have discussed the connection between the artist’s feelings and the social reality; some were calmly observing or sharply criticizing, while others were angrily protesting.
霍東澤作品
Different people, together with unique interpretation formed this extraordinary "Multifaceted." like our beloved city which allows everyone to have the opportunity to fully express their individuality. This is the multifaceted New York spirit; it is also the essence and the face of contemporary art.
