作为展览主题，“原始童话”旨在把如今又隐约复现的原始主义倾向纳入到一个更具艺术史论述的视角中，在这整个世界都几乎失去方向的时代，用各自的方式回到本性、本心与本来，让艺术在变乱中站稳最初的脚跟。

王思顺 Wang Sishun启示 15.11.1 Apocalypse 15.11.1铝 Aluminum78 x 15 x 50cm Ed 1/6，2015
Deng Wei and Jiang Xiaoyu mobilize experiences based on contemporary life and society: grassroots and corporeal, humorous and honest. In their cases, a kind of carefully controlled unadornment contains a kind of abandonment of over-skillfulness pointing directly into the depth of their hearts. In this sense, Wang Sishun and Yu Yang's works are aimed at the nature of objects and culture. Under the religious title of "Apocalypse", Wang Sishun has searched for various stones embodying characteristics of human portraits from all over the world, discussing the limits of artistic concepts confronting the origin of art and culture. Yu Yang's sculptures bring out a sense of abstract organicity from the materials, in order to obtain a certain non-representational sense of life, the formal results becoming quite primitive in style.

As the theme of the exhibition, "The Primeval Fairy Tale" aims to bring the now subtly reappearing tendency of primitivism into perspective, focusing more on the discourse of art history. In this era when the entire world seems to lose its direction, we return to the natural state, the initial vision and conception in our own way, so that art can stand still amid the chaos.

关于艺术家 About the Artists
邓洧，1978年生于湖南石门，土家族。毕业于广州美术学院。现任教于湖北美术学院。邓洧是一位具有“现世幽默”的艺术家，他的作品充斥着辛辣味道的“调侃”和“调情”。他脱离了学院的酷炫迷人的、令人激赏的技巧，以一种来自边缘人群的底层抗击和世俗与现实叫板，视觉叙事带有强烈的底层文化关怀。
Deng Wei was born in Shimen, Hunan province in 1978. He graduated from Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts. He is now teaching in Hubei Institute of Fine Arts. Deng Wei is an artist with "worldly humor". His works are full of "teasing" and "flirting" with acrimony. He broke away from the charming temperament and impressive skills of academicism, and challenged the mundane reality from the perspectives of the underclass and the outsiders, with a concern for the lower-class people in his visual narrative.
蒋小余, 1990年出生于重庆大足。2014年本科毕业于四川美术学院油画系，2020年硕士毕业于四川美术学院油画系。现生活和工作于重庆。蒋小余的绘画克制而内敛，他尽可能地剔除那些来自于日常图景或素材中的冗余和繁复，试图通过对这种单一形象的深入洞察和异质化处理，刻画个体生命在现实处境中的复杂遭遇，从而揭示和隐喻人们在普遍面临外部多变且动荡的世界时随之产生的内心活动。
Jiang Xiaoyu was born in 1990 in Dazu, Chongqing, China. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in the Oil Painting Department from Sichuan Fine Arts Institute in 2014, and a master's degree from Sichuan Fine Arts Institute in 2020. He currently lives and works in Chongqing. Jiang Xiaoyu's paintings are restrained and introspective, and he tries to eliminate as much redundancy and complexity as possible from the everyday scenes or materials. Through the insight and heterogeneity of this single image, Jiang Xiaoyu attempts to portray the complex encounters of individual lives in real-life situations, thus revealing and metaphorizing the inner activities that arise when people are generally faced with a changing and turbulent world.
王思顺，1979 年生于武汉，2008年毕业于中央美术学院，获硕士学位。现工作生活于北京。王思顺近几年持续的《启示》系列，将地质学和人类学相结合，指涉人类各族群和身份以及其深层次精神及人格涵义，将人的历史与人之外更深邃的宇宙时间联结。王思顺曾受邀参加沙特双年展、亚洲双年展、泰国双年展、日本越后妻有三年展、银川双年展、罗马尼亚双年展、俄罗斯乌拉尔当代艺术工业双年展、英国曼彻斯特亚洲艺术三年展。其作品在国内外多个艺术空间展出，并被泰康空间，香港M+美术馆，德国戴姆勒中心等机构收藏。
Wang Sishun, born in Wuhan in 1979, graduated from Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2008 with a master's degree. He currently lives and works in Beijing. Wang Sishun's "Apocalypse" series in recent years combines geology and anthropology together, reflecting the identities of different ethnic groups of human beings as well as their spiritual implications and personality traits behind it. It connects the history of man with the course of cosmic time beyond man. Wang Sichun has been invited to participate in Diriyah Biennale, Asian Art Biennale, Thailand Biennale, Echigo-Tsumari Art Field, Yinchuan Biennale, Art Encounters Biennial, Ural Industrial Biennial of Contemporary Art, and Asia Triennial Manchester. His works have been exhibited in many art spaces around the world and have been collected by Taikang Space, M+ Art Museum in Hong Kong, Daimler Center in Germany and other institutions.
伍伟，1981年生于郑州，2012年硕士毕业于中央美术学院实验艺术，现工作生活于北京。伍伟的创作一贯以纸为媒介，并以纸剪裁成动物皮毛样式的特征最为人熟知。他的作品中充斥着触感、欲望，涉及文明、野蛮、神话的议题，在材料与空间中寻找新的极致感受和视觉张力。伍伟的作品先后在全球多个重要艺术场馆展出，并被中央美术学院美术馆、北京民生现代美术馆、今日美术馆、白盒子艺术馆、河南美术馆、Being3艺术基金、白兔美术馆等机构收藏。
Wu Wei, born in zhengzhou in 1981, graduated from Central Academy of Fine Arts with a master's degree in Experimental Art in 2012. He currently lives and works in Beijing. Wu Wei has always been using paper as the medium for his creation. The most distinctive feature of his handling of paper is that he cuts paper into animal fur. His works are full of the sense of touch and desire, involving issues of civilization, barbarism and mythology, seeking new feelings and visual tension in materials and spaces. Wu Wei's works have been exhibited in many important art venues around the world, and have been collected by CAFA Art Museum, Beijing Minsheng Art Museum, Today Art Museum, White Box Art Museum, Henan Art Museum, Being3 Art Fund, White Rabbit Art Museum and other institutions.

Yu Hang's main exhibitions include: Ultre Community, Tank Shanghai, Shanghai, China(2021); The Timing of Drifters,「martin goya.pig」&「HOME Theatre」, Hangzhou, China(2021); ART021 Shanghai Contemporary Art Fair, Shanghai, China(2021); Hakuna Matata, Gene Gallery, Shanghai, China(2021), etc.
于洋，1986年生于河北，2011年取得天津美术学院雕塑系艺术学士学位，2015年取得中央美术学院雕塑系硕士研究生学位，2021年取得清华大学美术学院雕塑系博士研究生学位。现工作生活于北京。于洋的作品经过叙事性的写实阶段和超现实语言构成的多元实践，进而逐渐剥离出情感、现场、物性三者共通作用的潜在力量。于洋善于把作品的状态拿捏在三维与两维，或者雕塑与装置之间的语言边界，常常获得不同于一般雕塑语言或装置语言的独特经验。
Yu Yang, born in 1986 in Hebei, obtained a bachelor's degree in Sculpture from Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts in 2011, a master's degree in Sculpture from Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2015, and a doctoral degree in Sculpture from the Academy of Arts & Design, Tsinghua University in 2021. He currently lives and works in Beijing. Yu Yang's works went through stages of narrative realism and multifaceted practice of surrealism, and then gradually formed a potential power driven by the join forces of the emotion, the scene and the materiality. Yu Yang is adept in holding the state of his works between the boundary of two dimensions and three dimensions, or the boundary between sculpture and installation, which often grants his works unique viewing experience that can’t be achieved with general practices for sculpture or installation.
