Description 简介
This book contains two classic series, Chi Yi and Er Gong, which document the creative process of artist Chen Duxi over the past 13 years. Chi Yi is a way to merge the observer as a subject into the object of observation by means of movement, and to observe fluid changes as a way to study ontological painting from a subject-object perspective. The artist has long had a strong interest in and sensitivity to the texture and state of movement of subtle things. The works unify line and texture by reprocessing texture details in a highly distinctive personal style. Under the artist’s brush, the water patterns take different forms, and the flowing, coiling and settling movement states form a harmonious, subtle and introverted line aesthetic, and constitute the artist’s unique visual language and its visual spectrum. The Er Gong series is an interpretation of the microscopic world of plants and animals from a de-anthropocentric perspective, exploring the relationship between individual creatures and paintings.
《云蒸霞蔚》图录共254页，精选了陈督兮2009年至2023年的创作，其中包括艺术家的“虚静”、“持颐”、“尔躬”、“动物”和“肖像”系列作品的高清图片。
图录中还收录了四篇学者文章和一篇艺术家自述。鲍栋的〈水纹〉专注于陈督兮如何用线描性语言统一描绘物象；冯庆的〈且战且学仙〉将陈督兮的作品称为“古典心灵的现代临摹”，从艺术家的创作理念中感受中国贯穿古今的对于人与自然关系的想象；王薇的〈模进与迭奏〉则分析了陈督兮作品中的抽象性和具象性，展现了不同维度的元素如何在画面中交织融合。
FQM画廊客座学者郭欣然博士的章节〈遥远的共鸣〉以陈督兮2020年创作的《手》作为切入点，追溯了艺术家2013年至2019年的创作轨迹。作者细致观察了《手》（2020）和《以息相吹》（2019）两件作品，并指出陈督兮在视觉层面上处理线条的新方法：他的线条不再仅仅描绘水的运动，而是延展为身体上或身体内的纹路，也是一种从外在观察到内向探索的转变。《手》中的手纹依旧与水息息相关，暗示着身体内部永恒不息的流动、生长以及衰败与外表的平静。
About the Artist 关于艺术家
Chen Duxi is an artist who has been devoted to the study of contemporary Chinese painting, trying to find some kind of deep dialog between traditional Chinese art and contemporary art, not just a grafting of formal language. In a cross-cultural context, he has absorbed the nourishment of early paintings from different races and has always kept the core of oriental interest in his paintings, which have been recognized by collectors from Europe and the United States. He has held numerous exhibitions at home and abroad, and his work has been featured in Art Net, Artsy, and many other internationally recognized media.
陈督兮，1983年生于四川成都，2006年毕业于四川音乐学院成都美院；2008年毕业于中央美术学院油画进修班；现工作生活于北京。作品多用线表达，长期将精神贯注于事物的运动和对时间的多维体验上。其内容涉及山水、人物、等，题材传统但并不纯粹复古，以无限接近自然的状态为创作的动力，作品也试图捕捉到气之消息中的稳定个性，提纯出隐藏在自然中的势，并在绘画中探索隐藏于绘画动机背后神秘且不能自知的力量和世界，坚信有无数可以超越认识局限的路径能通过图像的创造而显现。正所谓“古人未立法之先，不知古人法何法”的所指。
陈督兮近年来参加的主要展览包括：《主观世界：形与流之间》，（2025，纽约FQM，个展），《尔躬》，（2023，纽约FQM，个展），《水 纟文》，（2022，北京798茶所，个展），《落霞沉繁星》 ，(2021, 北京王府中环·十王府，个展），《陈督兮个展》，（ 艺术8 ，巴黎，法国个展），《太野》，（五五画廊，上海，中国，个展）《非想非非想》（2016年，北京艺术8）；《秋毫之末》（2015年，北京艺术8，个展）；《无常之常 – 东方经验与当代艺术》（2014年，北京元典美术馆/德国波恩当代艺术中心）；《备忘录》（2013年，北京空白空间）；《留住的时间》（2010年，香港艺术公社）等。
