　　《不是“梁碩”》 梁碩2005-2008作品展將于5月17日在西五藝術(shù)中心開幕，此次展覽將展出梁碩自2005年以來至今的所有藝術(shù)作品。

　　梁碩以他的民工形象系列雕塑而為我們所知的，個人經(jīng)驗的變故和他的荷蘭之行使他從民工雕塑回到了內(nèi)心，他的這一步跨越夠決絕。他是被痛苦所改變的人，不同于被世界所改變的人。梁碩所反對的東西越來越多了，在這些作品之間已沒有了“風(fēng)格”和“主題”可言，他使自己偶發(fā)性的、靈機一動式的、破執(zhí)式的(借用個佛教術(shù)語)藝術(shù)，超越了“風(fēng)格”和“主題”的一般論述層面。它使藝術(shù)行為隨時發(fā)生，仿佛有一個更大的藝術(shù)概念籠罩在他的作品之上。這里面暗示了“自由”的因素。（摘自西川《歸零，歸我》）

　　[Not “Liang Shuo”] - Liang Shuo 2005-2008

　　C5 Art is presenting Liang Shuo’s Solo Exhibition in May, which features his works from 2005 to 2008. Liang Shuo was known for his sculptures of migrant workers. In a society where the moral and cultural ethos emphasized concern for the poor, the disadvantaged, as well as the cities’ migrant population, Liang Shuo gave us his own “grassroots” symbols. From a moral perspective, Liang was impressive. He employed a form of realism more dramatic than academic realism. Though Liang’s study of migrant workers also involved an investigation of the self, to most people, his artistic vision was then directed outward. However, Liang was not trapped in his early success. Changes in his personal life as well as a trip to Holland from January 2005 to December 2006 caused Liang to shift focus from migrant worker sculptures to the exploration of his own heart. Liang took this step with firm determination. He is a man changed by pain, different from those changed by the world. Liang Shuo started to oppose more and more things through his art. He used the simple but flexible project of shopping at a temple fair to oppose the alleged profoundness of art and the trend of prioritizing concept. He made a highly realistic sculpture of his son to challenge the strict opposition between classical techniques and the utilization of new materials and found objects in contemporary art. He poured ink onto gesso in a gesture to oppose the grand meaning of art and the profession of art collection. He repeated the labor of cutting and welding C-steel to oppose overly intellectual activities. These works do not have an overarching style or theme. The artist’s spontaneous, spur-of-the-moment, Pozhi -style (to borrow a Buddhist term) has transcended styles and themes. Demonstrating that artistic behavior can happen at any moment, these works seem to be guided by a broader artistic concept, and suggest the element of “freedom”.
