展览前言
鲍栋
从2016年开始，许宏翔的工作逐渐从材料、技法与图像的实验，或者说一种漫游的、躁动的、坏图像的绘画，转向了一种有明确动力与支点的绘画实践。
这场转变来自于2016—2017年的三个“绘画实践”，许宏翔在提醒自己绘画绝不仅仅是材料、技法与图像，艺术家也并不是一个飘浮在真空中的身份，另一方面，实践意识反而给他之前的实验带来了新的语境与应用背景，使散乱的语汇获得了结构化的语法。
在朝向了本土现实经验的同时，许宏翔2016年之后的作品也明确地朝向了绘画自身的丰富性，用绘画在视觉及身体上的活力回应着外部经验的活力。在这些作品中，“风景”与“看”的主题，以及置身于山野中的人物形象反复出现，几乎连接成了一种象征性的循环关系：观看使自然成为了风景，而观看本身也成为了观看的对象。在这里，艺术家并不只是一个旁观者，也是一个置身其中的亲历者，同时，他也是某种超越性的第三方视角的提示者。在这个层面上，许宏翔作品中人与风景之间的复杂关系，正是来自于经验与现实之间的庞杂交错，他并没有去给出一个“现实主义”式的结论，而是在通过内在于绘画的丰富让我们看到了现实本身的丰饶，在这里，经验的真实与绘画的真实难分彼此。
作为展览主题，“热土野望”首先暗示的是许宏翔绘画实践的经验背景与视觉风格；其次，这也是对他绘画母题的概括描述，我们不妨把它场景化、具象化为一片繁茂土地上的环顾张望。最后，“热土野望”还包含着一种对美学价值取向的修辞，热土的“土”是土地与本土，也是一种生机勃勃的土气，当艺术越来越陷入“知识生产”的贫乏，从过度的“文”回到“野”，回到那些尚未被话语收纳的“田野”经验，这是一件重要且及时的事情。
Foreword
Bao Dong
Since 2016, Xu Hongxiang’s practice has gradually shifted from experiments with materials, techniques, and images, or say, an aimless, agitated kind of painting imbued with Poor Image, to a painting practice supported by clear motivation and technical foundation.
This shift originated from the three “painting practices” from 2016 to 2017. Xu Hongxiang reminds himself that painting is not only about materials, techniques, and images and that the artist doesn’t exist as an entity that floats beyond all else. On the other hand, his consciousness to establish a concrete practice introduces new contexts and application backdrops into his previous experiments, granting his scattered vocabulary a structural language.
While oriented towards the experience of local reality, Xu Hongxiang’s works after 2016 also march clearly towards the plentitude of painting itself, responding to the vitality of external experience with the inherent visual and physical vitality of painting. In these works, the themes of “landscape” and “viewing”, as well as the motif of characters in the mountain, appear repeatedly, almost constituting a symbolic interconnected relationship within it—where the act of viewing turns nature into a landscape, while the act of viewing itself also transforms into an object of viewing. Here, the artist is no longer a mere spectator, but also a witness being situated within it. At the same time, he is also some sort of entity that operates through a transcendental third-party perspective. On this level, the complicated relationship between humans and landscape in Xu Hongxiang’s works originated within the nexus of reality and experience. He does not offer us a “realistic” conclusion, but instead, reveals the profoundness of reality through the intrinsic profoundness of painting itself. Here, the reality of experience entangles with the reality of painting.
As the theme of this exhibition, “An Exuberant View” first hints at Xu Hongxiang’s painting practice’s experience and visual style; and secondly, it is also an overarching description of his painting practice and motif—where one materializes and rectifies a gaze into an abundant, lush landscape. At last, “An Exuberant View” also implies the rhetoric of aesthetic value orientation. The “View” in the exhibition title represents the land and also the native soil, a source of vigorous, unrefined energy from the earth. When art descends into the dilemma of the lack of “knowledge production,” it is important and timely for us to return to the “field,” reverting from the excessive reference of “literature” to “naivete.”

「 关于艺术家 」
许宏翔，1984年出生于湖南长沙。2011年毕业于中央美术学院版画系，获硕士学位，现生活工作于北京。
许宏翔的艺术创作形式多围绕绘画展开。项目式带有叙事情节的组画和以风景为主的布面油画是他一直以来并行的两个创作方向。“图像”、“身体”以及“绘画与现实之间的关系”是其多年在多媒介绘画项目中探讨的主题。作品中使用大量浓郁色彩等强烈个人风格的架上绘画是那些主题的切片。
Xu Hongxiang was born in Changsha, Hunan in 1984. He graduated and received his master’s degree from the Printmaking Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing in 2011. He currently works and lives in Beijing.
Xu Hongxiang’s artistic practice often revolves around painting. Project-based painting series with narrative contents and oil paintings centered on landscapes are the two parallel creative approaches that punctuate his career. “Image,” “body,” and “the relationship between painting and reality” are the overarching themes he has been trying to explore in his multi-media painting projects throughout the years. The traits of his highly stylized painting, which included a signature saturated palette, are the fragments that reflect such themes.
