那些未碰触过我血液的人 会怎样说我的诗？

此句来自于聂鲁达的成名作《疑问集》。聂鲁达一生有三个主题：爱情、诗歌和革命。他把这三个主题都演绎得淋漓尽致，推向堪与马丘比丘高峰的高度。聂鲁达以墨水为载以诗为型，将震耳发聩的呐喊，嘈嘈切切的私欲，柔情绕指的吟唱，展现给世人。

艺术家的世界是相通的，如诗洋溢热情，如画表达感悟，如曲赞颂灵魂。那些独自走过的方徨不安，经历的浴火重生，激起心底深深的哀叹，催发出厚实蓬勃的激情与灵感，最后跃然纸上。

What will those who have not touched my blood speaking of my poetry?

The line comes from Neruda’s famous ‘Libro de las preguntas’.Neruda had three themes in his life: love, poetry and revolution. His rendering ofall three themes is extreme, pushing them to the heights of Machu Picchu. In the form of ink, in the form of poetry, Neruda presented his deafening cry, his confounding desires, and his gentle chanting to the world.

The artists’ worldsare interlinked, such as poetry filled with enthusiasm, such as paintings expressingfeelings, such as songs praisingsouls. Those unrestful feelings walking alone and rebirthing experiences through firearouse the deep lamentfrom the bottom of the heart, urging himto send out a solid and vigorous passion and inspiration, consequently presenting works on the paper.

那些未感受过我人生的人 会怎样评我的画？

冉启泉亦是如此，只不过液体的墨水变成了固体的纸，或如花绽放，或似山缄默，层层叠叠的厚重，这是属于艺术家的铁血柔情。纸张太薄，承载不住思想的厚重，便化纸为墨，以纸作画，突破形式的局限，追求更为本真的自我表达。纸是属于他的浪漫。堆叠的纸张从回忆中来，厚重；堆叠的纸张拘在画框里，厚重；堆叠的纸张印现在世人的眼中，厚重。层层的重量堆砌出了艺术家想要的力度，也压实了喷涌的情感。

Paper Edge Series

What would those who have not felt my life commenting my artworks?

Converting fromthe liquid ink to a solid paper, or blooming, or silencing, the layering thickness belongs tothe artist’s unique tender feelings. The paper was too thin to bear the weight of ideas, so they turned paper into ink and paintings to break through the limitations of forms and pursue a truerself-expression. Paper is hisownromance. Stacked papercomesfrom his memory,heavy; stacked paper stuck in the frame, heavy; stacked paper impressed in the world, heavy. It is exactly these heaviness brings out the power the artist wants, spreading his emotions to his works and solidifying the gushing feelings.

《花系列》 纸质综合材料

Flower Series / Mixed Media (Paper)

50x50x20cm

本次展览艺术家突破了常规创作材料的局限，进行不断的试探与摸索。与此同时，他依旧保留了对油画色彩张力和笔触肌理的理解，将情感延伸到作品，引导我们去往他内心的世界。四川美院教授、著名艺术评论家王林谈到，冉启泉作品提供了一种可能性，就是把媒材和资讯、社会和历史、知识和人文的相互关系，做了具体、有效的个人连接，以个性化的创新性改变艺术作为消费对象的普遍形状。说到底，观念艺术的感觉性和架上艺术的观念化，都是当代艺术可以选择的创作方向，而冉启泉作品正是从新表现主义和新写意主义两个维度，对于文化表达与文化反省所作出的重要贡献。正如著名批评家、策展人杜曦云所说，当代艺术一方面是在表达方式、材料方面的无边的解放—任何方式、材料都可以；另一方面是对“观念”水准的无限苛求—不是手艺的竞赛，是智慧的较量。

In this exhibition, hosted by Nancy’s Gallery, accompanied with CouttsArt Center and Gala Mall,the artist Ran Qiquan breaks through the limitation of the conventional creative materials, and carry out constant exploration. At the same time, he still retains his understanding of the color tension and brushwork texture of the oil painting, and extends his emotions to his works, leading us to his inner world.

Wang Lin, a professor at Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts and a famous art critic, said that Ran Qiquan’s works provide a possibility to make concrete and effective personal connections between media, information, society, history, knowledge and humanity. Wang believes that the sensibility of conceptual art and the observation of easel art are the creative directions that contemporary art can choose, and Ran Qiquan’s works are the two dimensions of new expressionism and new Freehand brushwork, which have made important contributions to cultural expression and cultural reflection. As Xiyun Du said, contemporary art is the boundless liberation of expression and material - any means and material can be used; and an insatiable demand for ideas. It is not a contest of skill, but a contest of wisdom.

走近艺术家冉启泉的

纸张世界

艺术家介绍

About the Artist

艺术家冉启泉出生于达州，一九八九年毕业于四川美术学院。冉启泉一直强调构建出美的艺术品的技巧不是本质，一个好的作品应该表现出艺术家所倾注的情感与思想。他在创作过程中不断尝试创新出新的作品，色彩极富张力，情感表达浓烈，这次通过对纸张厚度重新的组合、堆积、挤压后，作品呈现出全新的艺术质感。

Ran Qiquan was born in Dazhou and graduated from Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts in 1989. Ran Qiquan has always emphasized that the technique of constructing beautiful works of art is not the essence, and a good work should show the feelings and thoughts the artist puts into it. In the process of creation, he constantly tries to create new works with strong color tension and emotional expression. This time, after recombining, stacking and squeezing the paper thickness, his works present a brand-new artistic texture.

青年批评家邓旭谈到，冉启泉的作品创作分为两个阶段：第一个阶段，由纸为创作载体，火充当破坏工具，将传统意义的纸张、报纸、书籍等本具有一些特殊传递价值的载体用火来彻底破坏、销毁，对图像的逐渐否定。第二个阶段，是纸浴火重生后，纸与火成为重新的建构载体，形成全新的艺术质感，进而传递全新的观念、哲学感知。冉启泉的此次展览作品不仅仅是他对纸张艺术技术层面的探索，更多的是他用碳化这一个概念，对于生命中经历与情感的体验，自己的理解与反省。

As Youth Critic Deng Xu said, RanQiquan’sworks are divided into two stages: the first stage, by the paper as the carrier, fire as a destructing tool, he brings material with special value, like traditional paper, newspapers, books,to the fire to damage, gradually negating the image. In the second stage, after the rebirth of paper from fire, paper and fire become the re-construction carriers, forming a brand new artistic texture, and then delivering a brand new concept and philosophical perception. Ran Qiquan’s works in this exhibition are not only his exploration of paper art and technology, but more importantly,his utilization of carbonized techniques with his own understanding and reflection onhis lifeexperiences.

他的灵感来源于家乡的竹浆做纸的工艺。纸张是一个非常特殊的材料，而且分类也非常之多。不同重量的纸张，例如竹浆纸 ,报纸,宣纸,书都是冉启泉能够运用的材料。这也代表了纸张的实际重量和它所表达的力量方面的一个很大的区别。通过对纸张原有结构的破坏与重构，冉启泉实现了在艺术中极致的纸叠剖面的曲线之美。正是因为大胆采用了纸张这一个材料，他的作品打破了传统固化对艺术这一概念的模式。对于冉启泉来说，起源于对纸张这一种特别形式的表达，作品最终是对他内心世界一个展现。正因为使用的材料，创作的过程特殊才最终形成了独特完美的作品。在冉启泉的作品中，我们可以感受到他用纸张来承载的情感，以及画作的温度。在和纸、火相伴的日子里，冉启泉逐步牵引出自己的诸多感悟。依托个人的美学趣味和人生经验，他逐渐走向对特定文化共同体的历史和现状的关照，做出他个人的阶段性判断。这种个人化的判断，对休戚与共的其他人也是有参考意义的。

His inspiration came from the craft of making paper from bamboo pulp in his hometown. Paper is a very special material, with manycategories. Different weights of paper, such as bamboo pulp paper, newspaper, rice paper and books are all materials that Ran Qiquan used. This also represents a big difference between the actual weight of paper and the power it conveys. Through the destruction and reconstruction of the original structure of the paper, Ran Qiquan realized the ultimate beauty ofthe curved paper profile. It is precisely because of the bold use of paper as a material, his work broke the traditional solidification of the concept of art. For Ran Qiquan, starting from the expression of paper as a special form, the work is ultimately a manifestation of his inner world. Special materials usedand the special creative process form his unique and perfect works. In Ran Qiquan’s works, we can feel the emotion carried by his paper, as well as the temperature of the painting.
