“隔空對(duì)話(huà)”展覽現(xiàn)場(chǎng)/杭州貝尼尼餐廳/2019 installation view，“inter space dialogue”/Bernini restaurant, Hangzhou /2019 關(guān)于近藤翔平的禪宗藝術(shù) 文/楊贛 近藤翔平是一位卓越的當(dāng)代青年藝術(shù)家。他出生于日本，先后在日本和美國(guó)接受藝術(shù)教育，近藤翔平具有東亞獨(dú)有的文化積淀，又具有廣闊的國(guó)際藝術(shù)視野。能將古老的日本文明與現(xiàn)代的西方文明結(jié)合，其作品充滿(mǎn)了宗教的神學(xué)救贖和對(duì)人性、欲望的反思。 在一組平面攝影創(chuàng)作中，近藤翔平關(guān)注了藍(lán)色、紫色的漸變，并將其應(yīng)用于背景物的拼貼中。這一樸素、碰撞的藝術(shù)手法體現(xiàn)了藝術(shù)家對(duì)物和色彩的思考。西方當(dāng)代藝術(shù)中，如波洛克等藝術(shù)家，色彩的運(yùn)用通常絢麗多姿，表現(xiàn)藝術(shù)家主體熾熱的情感，但在近藤的這組攝影中，他的顏色過(guò)度恬靜而自然。近藤長(zhǎng)期受到日本禪宗影響，在佛教文化中，有“色即是空”的說(shuō)法，我們可以從近藤的攝影中明顯感受到現(xiàn)象背后的空無(wú)，這正是禪宗美學(xué)的體現(xiàn)。 女人和性也是近藤翔平藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作的一大主題。在一系列女性人體藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作中，近藤翔平并未采用具象的肖像人體創(chuàng)作，也并未關(guān)注女性身體的生理結(jié)構(gòu)，而是以一種靈動(dòng)、深邃的筆法，表現(xiàn)了女性人體的輕靈和神性。整組創(chuàng)作充滿(mǎn)了性的曖昧和隱喻。藝術(shù)史之父阿比•瓦爾堡曾經(jīng)關(guān)注過(guò)畫(huà)面里流動(dòng)的女神姿態(tài)，例如波提切利的《春》。近平的女性人體也更加注重女性動(dòng)感、韻味的表達(dá)，仿佛一個(gè)瞬間的形象和記憶，在欲望流逝之后又復(fù)歸于空無(wú)。 近藤翔平自幼就經(jīng)常進(jìn)行禪宗的冥想，在藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作中又能發(fā)揮波普藝術(shù)、琳派藝術(shù)的優(yōu)勢(shì)，并結(jié)合禪宗、神道教等思想，將其圓潤(rùn)融合。他的作品屢屢獲獎(jiǎng)，并在美國(guó)、日本、中國(guó)舉辦過(guò)多次展覽，贏得了社會(huì)的廣泛關(guān)注和藝術(shù)上的專(zhuān)業(yè)好評(píng)。 Shohei kondo’s Zennish article/ Yang gan Shohei Kondo is an outstanding contemporary youth artist. He was born in Japan, and has ever received art education in both Japan and the United States. The artist possesses such cultural accumulations that are so typical of the East Asian area, as well as such broad international art vision. He is able to combine the ancient Japanese civilization and modern western civilization. And his works are filled with religious and mythological salvation as well as the reflection of human nature and desires. In a set of graphical photography works, Shohei Kondo pays attention to the gradual change in color from blue to purple, and applies it into the process of doing patchwork to create the background. The simple and colliding art method helps present the artist’s thinking on objects as well as color itself. In western modern art, such artists as Pollock often tend to use very brilliant and shiny colors in their painting so as to express the ardent emotions from the inside of the artists. However, in this set of photographs by Kondo, the color he used is extremely peaceful, comfortable and natural. In fact, the artist has been under the influence of the Japanese Zen for a long time. In the Buddhist culture, there is such a famous saying as “color is just emptiness”. In the works of the artist, we can easily and obviously feel the emptiness behind the visible objects, which is actually about a vivid presentation of the aesthetics of the Zen. Women and sex is another major theme of Shohei Kondo’s creation work. In a set of art works of female bodies, the artist did not try to make some true copies of women’s bodies, nor did he try to present the physical structure of female bodies. Well, instead, he used some inspirational, moving and profound methods to express the lightness, swiftness and holiness of the female body. The entire set of works are filled with the ambiguity and metaphors of sex. The father of art history Aby Warburg ever paid attention to the flowing postures of the goddesses in some pictures, such as the Spring by Botticelli. Well, the female bodies created by Shohei also show more attention to the expression of the mobility as well as beautiful elegance of the females, as if they are some images and memory of one moment, which then came back to nothing as the desires faded away. Shohei Kondo started to do some Zen meditation very often since he was very young. In his creation, the artist is able to take use of the advantages of the pop art and the Statsu and kren School and then to combine them with the Zen, religion and Taoism and some other thoughts in a natural and perfect way. His works have won many awards, and he has held multiple exhibitions in the United States, Japan and China, which have attracted wide attention from people and have received professional praises for his excellent art too. 展覽現(xiàn)場(chǎng)
