謠——張煒個(gè)展

　　張煒的近期繪畫(huà)表現(xiàn)出作者對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)和歷史的獨(dú)到認(rèn)識(shí)。看似單純的畫(huà)面卻蘊(yùn)涵著豐富的表現(xiàn)力。他似乎樂(lè)于設(shè)計(jì)一系列荒誕又真實(shí)的事件場(chǎng)景，在單純和大量留百的畫(huà)面上悠然自得地發(fā)生。這些事件中的人物熟悉而陌生，似乎是童年的縮影，又象是現(xiàn)實(shí)狀態(tài)下的另一個(gè)自我。而在畫(huà)面中所遭遇到的卻是在現(xiàn)實(shí)中所熟悉但又永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)發(fā)生的事件片段。他通過(guò)這一些極為荒誕嘲諷甚至是童話(huà)般的發(fā)生來(lái)刺激人們的記憶神經(jīng)，現(xiàn)實(shí)中為我們所知的真實(shí)事件在多大程度上能符合原有的真實(shí)？我們?cè)跄軈^(qū)別現(xiàn)代媒體，數(shù)字模擬技術(shù)對(duì)真實(shí)的仿照，復(fù)制乃至重構(gòu)？歷史的真實(shí)又是在多大程度上為我們把握？張煒用荒誕的真實(shí)提示著我們重新審視我們周?chē)陌l(fā)生和我們對(duì)過(guò)去的認(rèn)識(shí)。

　　Ghost, complex, alone - A solo exhibition by Zhang Wei

　　Zhang Wei’s recent works expressed his recognition for reality as well as history. From his simple composition, the artist was actually well knitting a series of ridiculous as yet real events. Amid the majority of whiteness, stories were told so naturally and amply. In his stories, the charactors seem to be so familiar as well as strange, epitome of childhood or another ego of reality. What appears on his canvases is in fact very familiar in reality but never actually happened. The arist stimulates the audiences’ memories with this seemingly absurd but childish sarcasm. How believable are those so-called true events we have heard about?

　　How can we distinguish the truthfulness of many things which could so easily be modified, reproduced or re-created by digital technology or simulation? To what extent is history to our control? Zhang Wei’s works remind us to re-exam what have happened around us & re-discover what have happened in the past.
