Video ?Action Media

杜梦堂(上海）很高兴与您分享由Action Media特别呈现的展览视频，为您带来艺术家林国成创作背后的故事，以及他对此次展览的想法：“我想做一个展示，它简单的，不承担什么特别的意义，只有灰，白，黑，只有线条和关于美的事情。”。此次展览通过十余件近期作品进一步关注林国成的钢笔水墨创作，力求呈现他在内心静谧世界中对道家审美的探索，对自然与城市生长的思考，以及对思绪和情感的记录。

此次展览将延长至7月31日。欢迎大家同艺术家一起在信息量爆炸的今天去悉心观察、静心感受，在物欲横流的世界为内心真实的自我创造一个静置的空间。

Galerie DUMONTEIL is delighted to share with you this video specially presented by Action Media, in which Lin Guocheng disclosed the inside story of his practice as well as his own idea about this exhibition, “What I would like to show is simple, nothing more than lines and beauty.” The exhibition continues to explore Lin’s ink pen practices with more than ten recent works pertaining to his contemplations on the aesthetics of Taoism, the synergetic growth between nature and urban environment, as well as the flow of his own state of mind.

The exhibition is now extended to July 31st. You are more than welcome to enjoy us to perceive, meditate and find a place for one’s true self beyond this overwhelmingly informative and materialistic world.

关于艺术家 | ABOUT THE ARTIST

林国成（1979年出生于广东省）以其绝妙的钢笔水墨风景为人所熟知。高中辍学后，他于2002至2003年进修于四川美术学院，目前在北京和云南两地生活和创作。

Lin Guocheng (b.1979, Guangdong Province) is a Chinese artist known for his amazing ink landscapes drawn mainly with an ink pen. Lin attended Sichuan Fine ArtsInstitute between 2002 and 2003 after withdrawing from high school. He currently works and lives in Beijing and Kunming. 

林国成独特的绘画语言对东西方的艺术传统包容并蓄，同时也挑战着两种体系的交融与碰撞。一方面，艺术家精妙的钢笔技法出自其对欧洲中世纪及文艺复兴时期艺术的热爱，尤其是米开朗基罗的素描和丢勒的铜版画；另一方面，艺术家对中国的哲学思想和文人绘画独具慧心，尤其欣赏石涛、陈洪绶和董源的作品。林国成充分汲取各家所长，在当代维度下钻研和探索钢笔与水墨结合的可能, 流动的“气”亦或是生命能量的循环总是出现在林国成的作品中, 通过文人画丰富的技法以及对形神气韵的追求为那些密集、繁复的钢笔线条留出了想象的空间，注入了更多活力和多样性，使最终呈现的作品既有对气力的把控，又不失对细节的雕琢。

Lin's unique language embraces the artistic traditions of the East and the West and challenges the integration and collision of those two systems. On one hand, the artist’s exquisite ink pen technique originates from his passion for European medieval and Renaissance art, especially Michelangelo's sketches and Albrecht Dürer's engravings. On the other hand, Lin has a profound understanding of Chinese philosophies and literati paintings with particular admiration for the works by Shi Tao, ChenHongshou, and Dong Yuan. Fully absorbing the strengths of both systems, the artist explores the possibility of combining pen and Chinese ink in contemporary dimensions. The fluidic Qi — the circulating life force — is always present in Lin’s work. Through the rich techniques of literati painting and its pursuit of the spirit, the repetitively dense pen strokes become vital, unpredictable, and full of room for imagination, giving the final works spontaneity, momentum, and interesting details as well.
