丁乙 Ding Yi_十示 2016-7 Appearance of Crosses 2016-7_2016_椴木板上丙烯雕刻 Acrylic on basswood panel with engravings_240(H)x240(W)cm

丁乙的绘画以“+”字以及变体的“X”为主要的视觉符号，他将这无意义的形式符号作为结构和理性的代表，以及反映事物本质的图像表现的代名词，其语境则是后社会主义时期中国工业化发展步伐下的城市环境，所有画作均以“十示”连同年份序列命名。

在手法上，丁乙采用木刻与绘画两种材料相结合的方式，首先将椴木板作为作品的本体，在木板表面给予其四层不同且均匀的颜色，随后艺术家在这个基底上运用画笔和木刻相交替的方式创作。在走刀的同时，控制刀尖用力的不同，刻纹即会展现出不同的基底颜色，于此同时用笔的叠加则与刀刻形成了特有的一正一负的视觉和质感反差。

Ding Yi uses "+" and "x" with thematic variation as his main visual symbol. This motif that the artist has declared is a formal mark without meaning, in order to emphasize the rational approach to painting, while the context of this work is the industrial-paced development of the urban environment in post-socialist China. His series of paintings, whether predominantly black, based on tartan or else elaborated in intense fluorescent colors, all bear the title Appearance of Crosses with a date. 

In terms of technique, Ding Yi adopts the combination of woodcut and painting. First, he takes polychrome blocks as the base, and applies four different and uniform colors on the surface. Then, the artist uses the way of brush and wood carving intersection on this base. At the same time of cutting, when controlling the force of knifepoint, the pattern will show distinct base colors. Meanwhile, brushstrokes and the carving form a unique positive and negative visual and texture contrast.

丁乙，1962 年生于上海，现工作、生活于上海。从 80 年代后期开始，丁乙将视觉符号“十”字以及变体的“X”作为结构和理性的代表，以及反映事物本质的图像表现的代名词。其创作领域包括绘画、雕塑、空间装置和建筑。

丁乙的作品在全球不同机构和画廊广泛展出，包括上海当代艺术博物馆（2020）、美国旧金山现代艺术博物馆（2018-2019）；古根海姆博物馆（西班牙毕尔巴鄂／美国纽约，2017-2018）；德国柏林戴姆勒当代艺术（2017）；法国巴黎蓬皮杜艺术中心（2015）；德国杜伊斯堡、杜塞尔多夫等地美术馆联合群展（2015）；意大利罗马MAXXI 博物馆（2011）；美国旧金山亚洲艺术博物馆（2010）；北京尤伦斯当代艺术中心（2007）；瑞士伯尔尼、德国汉堡、西班牙巴塞罗那等地美术馆巡展（2005-2009）；德国柏林汉堡火车站当代美术馆（2001）等。

Ding Yi (b. 1962) was born and currently resides in Shanghai.  He chose this sign in the second half of the 80s as a synonym of structure, rationality and of a pictorial expressiveness that reflects the essence of things. The practice of Ding Yi encompasses painting, sculpture, spatial installation and architecture. He works primarily with “+” and its variant “x” as formal visual signals, above and against the political and social allegories typical of painting in China.

Ding Yi has exhibited extensively at various institutions and galleries, among many others, Power Station of Art (Shanghai, 2019); San Francisco MoMA (2018-2019); Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (New York/Bilbao, 2017-2018); Daimler Contemporary (Berlin, 2017); Centre Pompidou (Paris, 2015); Lehmbruck Museum (Duisburg, 2015); Museo Nazionale Delle Arti Del XXI Secolo MAXXI (Rome, 2011); Asian Art Museum (San Francisco, 2010); Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (Beijing, 2007); Mahjong, touring in museums in Bern, Hamburg, Barcelona, etc. (2005-2009); Hamburger Bahnhof Museum für Gegenwart (Berlin, 2001).
