(世界五大頂尖藝博會之一)
本館及「NEXT」單元館


芝加哥藝博會(Art Chicago ,CIAE)創辦於1979年,是世界五大頂尖藝博會之一,也是美國歷史最悠久的現代及當代藝術博覽會。以高品質和高品味,成為世界上最具代表性的藝博會。芝加哥藝博會的本館展覽,水準極高,以展出當代頂尖藝術作品為主,全球知名畫廊每年皆齊聚於此,共赴盛會。

芝加哥藝博會的本館展覽申請難度極高,審核嚴格,一般畫廊及藝術家非常難以進入。芝加哥藝博會「NEXT」單元館,則是芝加哥藝博會專門提供給成立五年內的新興畫廊參展機會,兩個展覽各有一組不同的評審委員負責審核參展畫廊,寶勝畫廊本次展覽主推李善單教授作品,在嚴格的評選條件下,兩項展覽均通過申請,可謂雙喜臨門。

Organized since 1979, Art Chicago (CIAE) is one of the world top five art expos, being the oldest international fair of contemporary and modern art in the U.S. Known for its high standard in quality and style, Art Chicago is regarded the most representative among all international art exhibitions. Art Chicago invitational exhibition showcases primarily the foremost avant-garde contemporary artworks of finest quality, bringing together the world's leading galleries every year for a grand gathering.

Art Chicago invitational exhibition has a very strict selection process, making the application for acceptance into the exhibition extremely difficult to most galleries and artists in general. Art Chicago "NEXT" is also an invitational exhibition organized especially for galleries emerging within the past five years. Each of the two exhibitions is curated by a committee independent from each other. Having Professor Lee Sun-Don as its leading artist, whose works exceed the standards of both exhibition committees, X-Power Gallery was invited into both exhibitions this year, a true situation of a double joy.

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.

我的靈感DNA

「我的靈感DNA」-李善單攝影個展 (04/10~05/10)
[轉載自 http://begforparty.com/my/blog/Artscharity/22353 ]
藝術家李善單教授本身在思考創意發想時,常常會不自覺地凝視手中香煙所形成的裊裊輕煙,因此藝術家李教授靈機一動,以「雪茄」為主角,並在每支雪茄上繪出獨創的圖騰,代表著創作靈感的來源。同時也表達出香煙/雪茄,這種出現在我們日常生活周遭的事物,也能成為創作題材,進而提醒觀賞者,多注意周遭的人事物,許多的靈感就在你身邊。

展出時間:04/10~05/10
展出地點:新意境˙寶勝畫廊 Info:(02)7706-8868

日本東京藝博會
周末上午去上野賞櫻,盛開的櫻花讓人心情真好,東京的地鐵交通真便捷,一張地鐵路線圖在手,背個背包就可趴趴走,把握機時間下午與朋友搭車到千代田去東京國際會議中心參觀看東京藝博會藝術作品。東京藝博會4/01已開鑼,許多當代藝術精品都在這裡展出,難得機會不能錯過,許多有品味的收藏家也把握機會前來尋覓典藏精緻藝術創作品。

藝術成就獲國際肯定的李善單教授也有圖騰能量作品參展,寶勝畫廊參展攤位人潮不斷,牆上藝術作品旁有許多已貼上手繪笑臉圖為記,看來李教授及寶勝畫廊代理的藝術創作深受收藏家青睞,許多幅作品已被懂行道的收藏家典藏了。李教授的雕塑品「阿滿的童子功」,造型可愛,吸睛力強,圍觀者眾。除了阿滿的童子功, 這次展覽展出一系列創作新觀念的作品:「彩雕‧一時」、EXIT系列及攝影作品。 如對東京藝博會參展作品有興趣,可參觀網頁http://arts.sundon.net/taiwan/index.html。

由於展攤上不能拍照,只能遠拍不好意思近照囉! 不過藝博會館的建築本身也是一項藝術品! (April 03, 2010)
