《百年孤独》的作者加西亚·马尔克斯(Garcia Marquez)曾经写道:“生活并非是一个人的经历,而是他的记忆”。对于杨永生而言,对“生活”认识或许亦是如此,……他显然并不顾忌有关城市的现实逻辑,在他看来城市与“山、树一样成为自然中的一个元素”,而他的创作就如同是中国古代的山水画家一样,“将城市融于自然之中,将我的情怀融入寄托情思的画面。”…… 杨永生似乎借径于艺术的方式,而实现了某种对现实生活的隐喻式的“干预”,这同样不是生活中真实经历的如实反映,而是当代生活中的那些迷乱、虚妄、脆弱刻痕于记忆的“伤情”抒发。
杨永生新作展将于4月12日在西五艺术中心开幕,此次展览将展出杨永生06-08年创作的油画作品。 (节选自赵力不是经历,而是记忆)

Nature and Memory - Yang Yongsheng Solo Exhibition
Curator: Zhao Li Exhibition time: April 12th-May 11th, 2008. Opening reception: Saturday, April 12th, 6pm. Exhibition place: C5 Art Center, No.5 Xi Wu Street, San Li Tun, Chaoyang District, Beijing.
Garcia Marquez, the author of One Hundred Years of Solitude, once wrote: “life is not what one lived, but what one remembers”. This may also be Yang Yongsheng’s understanding of life. Impervious to the logic of urban reality, he sees a city “as an element of nature, just like mountains and trees”. Yang’s works bear resemblance to classical Chinese paintings in that they “integrate cities into the nature, and blend artist’s personal emotions into the images”…Yang seems to be using art as a way to metaphorically interfere with reality. His works are not accurate reflections of lived experiences. Instead, they are “sentimental” expressions of what one remembers about contemporary life-its confusions, emptiness and fragility. Yang Yongsheng’s new solo show, featuring oil paintings made between 2006 and 2008, will open at C5 Art Center on April 12th.
