Sight fan's wall of Chen Hongzhi | 陳鴻志的視覺迷牆
 

Most of the time, a lot of blurring games are happening behind the different sizes walls, we all did peeped over it. Laughter, anger, sorrow and happiness had became a far away “lost wall”, especially loves that's under the wall had became freedom and give which has nothing to do with morals, although it still contains some trace of “steals”, but still has the kind of lost and peeping. The only differentiate is, behind that wall, every adult would of feel un-natural ambiguous, so, we like the visual of peeping more.
Obviously, Chen Hongzhi's “The lost wall” produces we is anticipating this kind of visual desire; spring, summer, fall, winter, those desire never stop to occupied any un-stable but real eyesight. An anxious city non-stopping going back and forwards in a contemporary artist's visual jungle, in the exhausted urban fringe, we do not have a reason to reject, or a way to get away from it, and to find a pure happy land in the corner of this exaggerating, lost city. This pure land brings the memories of arrogant and freedom, perhaps it's un-real, perhaps it was created. Modern city in this case tend to be a view of the other coast, and the work of “the lost wall” of Chen Hongzhi seems to have a kind of spiritual chase which has nothing to do with the prosperous and modern city, it is more likely to be an un-known walk, but for sure, this kind of walk is flashing in this busy city.
Chen Hongzhi is representing one of the very few outstanding “Spatial painting” visual artist, his space visual effect pray over the transparent acrylic, let all the impossible space emotion links together and painting it out by emotion. It's like during the middle ages, Gothic style under church glass drawing runs away to dark side and the territory to chase the freedom, that is a freedom which one kind of contemporary world person patrols, and the fine post industrial design spatial jungle scattered combination which present by “The lost wall” to form another classic again.
This Kind of spatial painting presents mental free spiritual and the spatial significance combination, as well as the color jungle spoken language movement which contain the meaning of words that represent those helpless anxious individual, and those un-known body languages had already shown the meaning of tiring under the visual levels that we are having right now.
The French renowned art historian Jean-Louis Pradel in his monograph “Contemporary Art”, according to this book, it presents the “un-sure” element in the contemporary art of the world in the 20th century, and China present age art continuously which has been swift and violent development tendency since the 1980s. Chinese young artist in the 70's already do not have the thoughts of revolutionary and they has changed greatly in their emotions. The un-known emotions and self control had being occupying those young people's thoughts, which makes the Chinese style painting lost the instinct spiritual, and this kind of un-sure mode is real and suitable in Chen Hongzhi's “The lost wall” system.

 

  很多時候,有很多迷離的遊戲在一堵堵有著大小不同的牆體縫隙背後,我們都曾經窺視角逐過。喜怒哀樂的童年記憶在長大後剩下一些虛無而遙遠的迷牆,尤其情愛在那些飄渺的牆體下成了與道德無關的自由與付出,儘管具備了某些“偷” 的痕跡,可依然是那種莫名的迷離與窺視。惟獨不同的是,那牆體背後的每個與成人相關的遊戲動作有了一些情感上不自然的矯作與曖昧,於是,我們更喜歡擁有那種稱之為“偷窺” 的心理不安的視覺慾望。

     顯然,陳鴻志的“迷牆”給出我們所期待著的這種視覺慾望;春夏秋東,這些慾望都毫不猶豫的佔有著城市裡每一個不安分而真實的眼神。一個城市的焦躁不安在一個當代藝術家的視覺叢林中穿梭遊走,在疲憊的城市邊緣,我們沒有拒絕的理由與逃避的藉口,在這樣荒誕迷離的城市角落裡找尋屬於自己心靈的那一點樂園淨土。這淨土是帶著傲慢與自由的殤逝記憶,或許是虛幻的,或許是營造的。現代化的都市無疑成了彼岸煩躁的風景,而陳鴻志的迷牆似乎有著與生俱來與城市,繁榮,現代化無關的神經性追逐,是一種莫名的遊走。但可以肯定的是,這種遊走,是適合在現代都市的車水馬龍中穿梭而閃爍著。

     陳鴻志是如今中國屈指可數的幾位優秀的“空間繪畫”視覺藝術家之一,他的空間視覺效應在他的丙烯顏料的性情揮灑中與壓克力透明板的張力銜接,讓所有不可能具備的空間情感再次以濃烈的當代繪畫情緒顯現出來。像中世紀歌德風格下的教堂玻璃繪畫所企及的某種逃離黑暗隱域的自由,那是一種當代人精神游走的自由。而精緻的後工業設計,空間叢林的錯落組合,讓一個個《迷牆》的實體在真實的疲憊空間中再次形成經典。

     這種空間繪畫的精神自由趨向與空間意義的組合,以及色彩叢林的言語動作,把能夠涵括和延伸的詞義無限擴展;叢林縫隙中那些茫然無助的個體焦慮,與放縱的野合以及某種莫名的肢體表情在自然意義中已經毫不客氣地表露了當下視覺階層的精神疲憊與反諷。

     法國著名藝術史家讓-路易.普拉岱爾(Jean-Louis Pradel)在他的專著《當代藝術》中,就20世紀世界範圍內的當代藝術做了一種“不確定” 的定性。而中國當代藝術自20世紀80年代以來一直處於迅猛的發展趨勢中,20世紀70年代出生的中國當代藝術青年,已然不具備更多革命年代的理想抱負與情緒性的顛覆,精神與圖式的遊走無意中讓圖式化的自我情緒開始迷亂,過多而有意地盲從,讓中國當代架上繪畫失去了它應有的精彩直覺。而陳鴻志明顯的不確定,讓這樣屬於這一代的遊走方式在《迷牆》系統裡,顯得貼切而真實。

前陣子,關於傑克.凱魯雅克的“垮掉的一代”,成了當代中國某些有“理想”情緒的沉默青年有意識的精神趨向,就像早年“切.格瓦拉”的圖像符號在那些大桶靴長馬尾的“搖滾”群體裡走紅一樣,“垮掉” 也企圖成為他們時代的偶像。不過遺憾的是,發展中的中國,還沒有完全屬於“BEST GENER ATION”流行時期。準確地說,我們都遊走在那些迷離的叢林背後,是《迷牆》。
