关于展览
风景，自然界的风光景色。在中国，很早就成为愉悦视觉和心灵的对象。但在西方，风景成为独立的审美对象却是很晚近的事情。文艺复兴早期，风景只作为绘画的背景被笼统描绘。随着文艺复兴时期透视技术的完善发展，画家们开始有能力绘制自然界的复杂视图，对风景的描绘也越来越细致。但是直到18世纪，风景才慢慢成为一个独立的绘画门类和不受歧视的绘画主题。仰仗于浪漫主义的盛行，人们开始赞美某一片自然景观：“风景如画”。
除了出现在背景中，风景有时也会出现在文艺复兴时期绘画建筑的窗户中，被窗户的四条边框完整的隔离成“画”。董大为以此作为西方风景画的早期象征，和可追溯的源头，将窗户作为取景器，回溯风景画在西方绘画中的发源和历史，以及透视在西方绘画中的焦点地位。此次展览董大为模拟湿壁画的技术，使用水彩在（窗户的透视模型）石膏上为风景画像，将文艺复兴绘画中的风景独立出来。

About the Exhibiton
Scenery, especially in nature, has long been an object of pleasure for the vision and the soul. But in the West, it was only recently that landscape has become an independent aesthetic object. In the early days of the Renaissance, landscapes were generally depicted as the background of paintings. With the development of perspective technology during the Renaissance, painters began to have the ability to draw complex views of the natural world, and their depictions of landscapes became more and more detailed. But it wasn't until the 18th century that landscape slowly became an independent painting category and an indiscriminate subject. Thanks to the prevalence of romanticism, people began to praise a certain type of natural landscape as "picturesque".
In addition to appearing in the background, the scenery sometimes also appears in the windows of Renaissance paintings, completely separated into "paintings" by the four-sides frames of the windows. Dong Dawei used this as an early symbol and traceable source of Western landscape painting, using the window as a viewfinder to trace the origin and history of the landscape and the focal position of perspective in Western painting. In this exhibition, Dong Dawei simulates the technique of fresco painting, using watercolour to paint landscape portraits on plaster (perspective model of windows), which makes the landscape in Renaissance painting a painting in its own right.
Dong Dawei was born in Dalian, China in 1981, and successively graduated from Shenyang Luxun Academy of Fine Arts and from the Bourges National Higher Academy of Arts in France. He currently works and lives in Beijing. His works have been featured in important institutions in China and abroad such as M Wood Art Museum, How Art Museum, Central Academy of Fine Arts Art Museum, Ullens Center for Contemporary Art, Taikang Space, Brussels Boghossian Foundation, Moscow Museum of Modern Art, and Hospice Saint-Roch Museum in Issoudun, France, etc.
