“木已成宙”

 

康剑飞作品展

2025.3.20 — 2025.5.18

壹美美术馆

这个展览展示了中央美术学院康剑飞教授三十年来在不同阶段创作的艺术作品：对版画语言的探索；版画向公众媒介（印刷、影像、行为、装置、建筑）的转向；建构大众参与的创作项目；把作为图像依托的“木版”扩展为广义的自然媒材，以呈现“木”本身的性格、体味、张力、层次、纹样等。

 
因此，这个展览不是要展示某种艺术“图像”的模式的生成路线图，尽管康剑飞创作了大量的复线风格的黑白版画，它们饱满、雄强而又不乏怪异。相反，康剑飞更加关注媒材与社会生态之间的互动关系及其生成的魅力。
 
图像和媒介是艺术创作中两个最重要的领域和要素。康剑飞试图把媒介从为图像服务中解脱出来，所以，他把木板从版画中解放出来。但是，康剑飞既没有把木头视为被切刻的被动材料，也没有把木头当作直接摆放的现成品，而是不断在他的“木制品”中发现和激化木的内质、力度和表象，让它最终升华为真正的、来自自然和宇宙的自我。这样一来，康剑飞的艺术创作就是不断与木质媒介纠缠、磨合、较劲的体验过程，同时也是探索如何使媒介恰如其分地回应人生及其生态的参与过程。
 
“木”于是成为展览的“言说者”，它似乎无处不在，并张开双臂去拥抱观众。
 
康剑飞的创作历程或许告诉我们这样一个道理：艺术品不应该是被动观看的审美之物，也不是仅仅宣示艺术家观念的言说道具，艺术品是由具体材料决定的话语系统。它们是活的。在康剑飞的作品中，版画、装置和生活空间中的“木”正在和我们一道共享并塑造着我们生活其中的宇宙世界。

The Exhibition depicts Kang Jianfei, professor from Central Academy of Fine Arts, his artistic creation over the past three decades. Including the exploration of the print language, the shift towards the public media (printing, film, behavior, installation, architecture), the construction of public collaborative creative projects, and the extension of "wooden" as an image bearer to a broader range of natural materials, in terms of presenting the characteristics, nuances, tension, layers, and patterns of "wood" itself.

 

Therefore, this exhibition is not intended to showcase the generation of artistic "image" models, despite the fact that Kang Jianfei created numerous black and white wood prints in a complex style that is robust yet also quirky. Instead, Kang Jianfei focuses more on the interaction between materials and social ecology and the attractions generated by their interactive integration.

 

Images and mediums are the most significant elements within artistic creation. Kang Jianfei attempts to liberate mediums from their service to images, thus liberating wooden sheets from the confines of printmaking. However, Kang Jianfei neither views wood as a passive, pre-cut material nor as a ready-made finished product. Instead, he continuously discovers and intensifies the inherent qualities, dynamics, and appearance of wood in his "wood products", eventually elevating them to something arising from nature and the cosmos. As a result, Kang Jianfei's artistic creation is an experiencing process of tangling, negotiating, and challenging with wooden mediums, as well as a participating process of exploring how mediums appropriately respond to life and ecology.

 

In this way, "wood" becomes the "speaker" of the exhibition, which seems to be everywhere and extending its arms to embrace the audience.

 

Kang Jianfei's artistic journey may convey the following lesson: artworks should not be passive objects of aesthetic appreciation or mere declarations of artist ideas as tools. Artworks are determined by specific materials and are living entities. In Kang Jianfei's work, wood engravings, installations, and the wooden material rendered in living spaces are sharing and shaping the universe we live in.
