宋琨:简介
宋琨1977年生于内蒙古,2002年毕业于中央美术学院。在2005年中国艺术三年展上被称为“最值得期待的年轻女性艺术家”, 宋琨的作品关注于日常现实中的生活细节。例如在其日记体作品《这就是我的生活》中,艺术家从个体的角度描绘自己经历过的生活或者观察到的一个瞬间,外界的评断被她“拒之门外”。来自日常生活的“关心”、“恐惧”、“欲望”、“成长”、“快乐”以及“迷惑”,来自她那一代的最隐秘的短暂的感受被呈现于画布。这些作品基于其对于身体或者感情的描述呈现出一种对于当代生活的“逆反”——而在这层反叛的背后其实是一种甜蜜和美好的自由。作为国内艺术团体“N12”的组建成员之一,宋琨和其他十一位毕业于中央美院的年轻而雄心勃勃的艺术家们每年都会 组织一次展示他们自己创作的展览。作为文革之后成长的一代,宋琨经历着中国城市经济迅猛发展的变化。不同于年长一代和同时代的艺术家,宋琨的作品很少与政治主题明确的挂钩。她运用自己独特的视觉语言来表达对于日常生活的关注和期望。
Song Kun: A Brief Introduction
Song Kun, who was born in Inner Mongolia in 1977, studied oil painting at the Central Academy of Fine Art in Beijing until 2002. A founding member of the N12, a group of twelve ambitious young graduates of the Central Academy of Fine Arts who have been organizing their own annual exhibitions, Song Kun was educated after the Cultural Revolution and raised in an era of accelerated urban and economic development.
Hailed as the most promising young female artist during the 2005 Triennial of Chinese Art, Song Kun’s work examines the minutiae of daily existence. The artist portrays an inherently individual perspective, collecting on canvas the concerns, fears, desires, growth, happiness, and confusion of daily life: the fleeting, innermost feelings of her generation. The meaning of her paintings lies in both their description of the physical and the emotional; they represent, perhaps, a sugar-coated protest against contemporary life. While her paintings are less overtly political than many of her predecessors and contemporaries, she uses her own unique visual language to give expression to the concerns and desires of everyday life, building an archive of those moments of peak emotion, cognition, and memory. Her most recent work interprets mobility, migration, and movement as political and sentimental devices of both control and resistance that have become characteristic of life in contemporary China.
