红门画廊将展出史钟颖最新的油画、雕塑和装置作品
最新作品展 – 静观空境。该展览将展出艺术家的最新的油画、雕塑和前卫装置作品,在九月二十九日的开幕酒会上,参观者将与艺术家以互动的形式现场进行艺术品创作。
史钟颖在他的新作品中继续体现了当代佛教的审美理念,他最新创作的油画详细地阐述了他的雕塑作品,带有金属色泽的各种形状朦胧于画布之上。艺术家从佛学理念中找寻灵感,使其作品包含了矛盾、理想与效果,并从中探索空间与时间之间的关系。
史钟颖的大型装置作品流在此次展览上将占据首要位置,这件看起来象大船的装置作品由许多蚕茧制做的小格子组成,它将悬挂于屋顶之上。在这件装置的正下方,由蚕茧制成的五颜六色的造型散在地上。这件大型作品会使参观者认真地考虑生命轮回的隐喻。
在开幕酒会上,参观者将有机会参加史钟颖另一个装置作品的创作。该装置取名为门,隐喻人与人之间互相联系和角色转换。
史钟颖在国内、欧洲和美国参加过许多联展和个展。

Red Gate Presents Shi Zhongying’s New Painting, Sculpture and Installation
BEIJING August 8, 2007 – Artist Shi Zhongying will exhibit his new show, Viewing Emptiness, at Red Gate Gallery’s Watchtower location from September 29 through October 21, 2007. The show will feature his new paintings, sculpture, a monumental, avant-garde installation, and an interactive piece that guests will help him create at the opening reception on September 29.
Facile in a wide range of media, Shi Zhongying continues to shape a contemporary Buddhist aesthetic in his new works. His new paintings elaborate on his sculpture, translating his meticulous, metallic forms to shadows on canvas. Taking cues from Buddhist philosophy, he embraces contradictions, examines cause and effect, and explores spatial and temporal relationships.
Dominating the exhibition will be Shi Zhongying’s grand installation piece, Flux, a large boat-like structure suspended from the ceiling and comprised of small compartments containing silkworm cocoons. On the floor beneath it, sheets of paper are decorated with the random, multicoloured patterns of broken silkworm eggs that were allowed to fall upon them. The quiet monumentality of the work compels the viewer to consider the notions of the cycles of life and Nirvana.
Guests at the opening will have the opportunity to participate in the creation of another Shi Zhongying installation. Name Door will provide a visual metaphor for human connections and transitions.
Shi Zhongying has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions in China, Europe and the United States.
