中藝博公司自2004年在文化部的支持下舉辦，經6年的發展已成長為亞洲領先，國際化程度亦相當高的現當代藝術博覽會。CIGE 2010致力於呈現最有藝術價值及新意的現當代藝術作品，歡迎並鼓勵多元化的藝術形式，包括攝影、錄影、油畫、雕塑、綜合材質、裝置……科技的發展和全球化進程不斷影響著藝術產業結構，CIGE 2010特別展將邀請畫廊、藝術家、非營利性藝術機構、美術館共同推出與技術相關的特別展，展出機構將與參觀者共同思考當代視覺文化。

本次展覽將主要展出李教授作品，現場將會欣賞到李善單教授最新攝影作品「我的靈感DNA」系列，雕塑「天地有情」以及另一「將門」系列，李教授 使用清末民初中國北京大戶人家的祥獅門環為主題素材，以這種已有百年歲月的收藏品融合西方油彩，展現東西合璧之美。這些傳統的祥獅門環，隨著都市現代化，早已不為中國人使用，且不再生產。但這些充滿工藝與文化意義的祥獅門環，卻成為時下熱門的古董收藏品。李教授蒐集了這些僅存稀有的古董，賦予其新的色彩，不但延續中國傳統工藝精品生命，更開創出另一種新東方當代藝術風格，並提昇了作品價值，成為「古董級」藝術畫作。

*註：李教授的攝影作品「我的靈感DNA」系列，目前正在敦化南路新意境 寶勝畫廊展出，將展出至5/10。

Supported by the Ministry of Culture of the People's Republic of China since 2004, the Seventh Edition of the China International Gallery Exposition (CIGE 2010) has developed to be Asia's leading modern and contemporary art expo with considerably high international participation. CIGE 2010 is engaged in presenting a panorama of the most artistic and creative modern and contemporary art. CIGE 2010 welcomes and encourages any form of art expression, including photography, video, painting, sculptures, mixed media, installations, prints, digital and net art, textile, design… Understanding the relevance of technology and globalization on the economic infrastructure of the art world, CIGE 2010 SPECIAL PROJECTS invite galleries, artists, not-for-profit art organizations, museums, institutions, private collections, and visitors to reflect on our contemporary visual culture.

The majority of the works to be exhibited are art creations by Professor Lee Sun-Don, including Lee's latest photography series "My Inspiration DNA", sculpture "Sentient Universe", and the series "Treasure Gate". Lee Sun-Don uses the Auspicious Lion Head Door Knocker as the theme material in series "Treasure Gate", which is a door decoration mostly seen in the wealthy households in Beijing during the years between the end of Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic. Combining the collectible antique of more than a hundred years history with the western oil paints, the beautiful artwork is the child of a perfect marriage of the east and the west. While this long forgotten tradition being put far behind the urban development, these discontinued Auspicious Lion Head Door Knockers are now back to the antique marketplace as a hot art craft item of rich cultural significance. Lee Sun-Don collected these rare antiquity objects, infused them with new colors, thus turning the final work into "antiquity" art painting of high market value, which not only sustains Chinese traditional technical arts, but further opens up a new eastern contemporary artistic style.
