凯旋主义是中国艺术家邢俊勤和澳大利亚艺术家伊恩·霍华德的联展。两位艺术家都通过其实验性作品探索世界,试图“描绘”我们这个时代的感受、价值观和精神。

对大都市的信心

邢俊勤的作品强调文化与军事题材的融合——枪炮和玫瑰,丰富的印象派风景和其它被迷彩图案完全伪装的风景。历史上的西方文化偶像与当今中国力量的象征并置、融合在一起。郉俊勤将反差极大的、甚至矛盾的图像与自信和轻松相互结合,展示了某种可能的新现实。个人、建筑甚至景观都整合在一个对美好未来的综合愿景中。

个人的不确定性

霍华德的作品描述了这样一个典型的傲慢而不是谦卑的时代,吹嘘个人主义而不是关心人类的困境以及推广名人似乎比社区福祉更重要的时代。这些都是现代大都市的特征,个人不太确定自己的角色和身份。历史变得不确定,未来充满了焦虑。

这种源于凯旋主义的自信和焦虑的二分法并不是均匀地分布于东西方,也不从属于西方或东方的哲学。它的特征和影响存在于跨文化、政治制度、国家和全球媒体运作中。这是一个普遍现象,个人必须在其中判断自己的位置和通道。

显而易见,两位艺术家都来自不同的文化和艺术背景,然而都以坚定的全球性视野积极地面对21世纪的成就与挑战。

在这个展览中,邢俊勤和霍华德的作品围绕着凯旋主义提供了一面探索和质疑的镜子,凯旋主义本身经常依靠图像来传达其强大的信息。(文:伊恩·霍华德,译:晋华) 

Invitation Letter

Exhibition:TRIUMPHALISM

Artists:Ian Howard, Xing Junqin

Duration:Aug 13, 2023-Sep 11, 2023

Opening:3pm, Aug 13, 2023 

Venue:798 International Art Exchange Center

TRIUMPHALISM is a joint exhibition of Australian artist, Ian Howard and Chinese artist, Xing Junqin. Both explore the world via experimental artworks that attempt to ‘picture’ the feelings, values, and ethos of our time.

Uncertainty for the Individual 

Howard's artworks describe an era that is typically characterised by hubris rather than humility, boasts of individualism rather than concern for the plight of humanity, and the promotion of celebrity seemingly a higher priority than the well-being of communities. These are the characteristics of the modern metropolis where individuals are less certain of their role and identity. History is rendered uncertain, the future redolent with anxiety.

Howard's artworks

Confidence in the Metropolis 

Xing's artworks address the integration of culture and the military- of guns and roses, of landscapes that are richly impressionistic and others that are totally disguised by camouflage pattern. Historic Western cultural icons are juxtaposed, integrated, with symbols of today’s Chinese power. Xing combines contrasting, even contradictory images with confidence and ease showing a possible new reality. Individuals, buildings, even landscapes fit into an integrated vision of a positive future. 


Xing Junqin's artworks

This dichotomy of- confidence and anxiety- that emerges from TRIUMPHALISM, is not neatly distributed East and West, or attributable to Western or Eastern philosophies. Its characteristics and impacts exist across cultures, political systems, nations, and global media operations. It is a universal phenomenon within which individuals must negotiate their place and passage. 


Clearly, each artist comes from a widely different cultural and artistic origin and yet both embrace a decidedly universal view of the world and its achievements, as well as challenges in the 21st Century. 


In this exhibition, the artworks of Xing and Howard turn an explorative and enquiringmirror upon TRIUMPHALISM which has itself often relied upon images to convey its powerful message. (Written by Ian Howar)

伊恩•霍华德

伊恩•霍华德教授是一位澳大利亚艺术家以及悉尼新南威尔士大学艺术设计系的学术人士,该系原名为美术学院。他从1998年至2013年担任该院院长。此前,伊恩在布里斯班的格里菲斯大学美术学院担任院长。他在悉尼获得美术教育本科文凭、在伦敦获得电影电视高级研究硕士文凭,在蒙特利尔获得美术学硕士学位。

他的创作始终关注平民与军事机构之间的文化关系,其主题包括边界、城墙、障碍物以及武装车辆,特别是战机、战车和军舰。

在阐述自己的拓印技法被用于‘直接媒介’时,伊恩质疑这种一对一的关系,既主题与作品图像意味着每件作品是否都包含着一个‘现实主义的统一’。这种一对一的关系包括对该主题在实际尺寸、地点与实时运作的表现。 

在文化环境中展示中,这种现实主义是自我沟通与具有内在表现力的。它要求观看者,而非艺术家,有意愿和能力对所看到的做出主观判断。这种对图像判断,独立于文本之外,是视觉艺术传达信息和经历的一种特殊方法。

伊恩•霍华德教授在世界范围内创作并且举办展览。他和郉俊勤共同创作并且举办展览已近20年时间。

IAN  HOWARD

Professor Ian Howard is an Australian artist and academic at UNSW Sydney, Faculty of Art & Design, previously known as the College of Fine Arts, (COFA). He was Dean of the College from 1998 till 2013 and prior to that, Ian was Provost and Director of the Queensland College of Art, Griffith University in Brisbane. He trained in Sydney (Diploma of Art Education), London (Graduate Diploma of Advanced Studies, Film and Television) and Montreal (Master of Fine Arts).


His artwork progresses a cultural relationship between civilians and military institutions with a concentration on borders, walls and barriers as well as enforcing vehicles, particularly aircraft, armored vehicles and ships.

Describing his rubbing technique as ‘direct-media’ he argues that the one to one relationship the subject has with the artwork image means each work contains an ‘integrity of realism’. This one to one relationship includes representation at actual scale, on location, and within the real time operation of that subject matter. 


Exhibited in a cultural setting, this realism is self-communicating and inherently expressive. It requires of the viewer, not the artist, a willingness and capacity to make interpretive judgments. This interpretation of the image, independent of text, is the special way visual art conveys information and experience.   


Professor Ian Howard works and exhibits internationally. He and General Xing have collaborated on artworks and exhibitions for approximately twenty years.
