展览地点
木木美术馆(798馆)我们非常荣幸地宣布木木美术馆（798馆）将迎来德国艺术家弗洛里安·克鲁尔（Florian Krewer) 在亚洲的首次美术馆个展“好狗”。本次展览由木木美术馆与阿斯本艺术博物馆（Aspen Art Museum）合作呈现，是艺术家迄今为止最全面的研究型展览，此前阿斯本艺术博物馆举办了他在美国的首次机构个展。纽约的夜晚是他的缪斯，克鲁尔描绘了那些夜晚带给他的广阔无际、自由自在与不确定性，艺术家从生活经历和奇思妙想中汲取灵感，在想象的风景和室内环境中创造了一个充满神奇邂逅的诱人世界。他试图通过描绘原始需求、渴望和种种诡谲的互动关系来揭示人们的集体性脆弱。本次展览聚焦艺术家过去六年的创作实践，汇集了来自世界各地重要收藏的作品以及首次展出的最新力作。克鲁尔2017年毕业于杜塞尔多夫艺术学院，师从艺术家彼得·多伊格（Peter Doig）。他于近年迁居纽约，其创作亦受到纽约城市氛围的影响而流露出不安焦虑的情绪。
在城市版图不断蔓延的北京展出克鲁尔的作品，亦呼应了艺术家的创作主题。他通过描绘衣着鲜明、活跃于城市夜晚的人物，捕捉下不拘一格的城市脉搏，并为其注入一丝压迫感亦或趣味性。这些无名的灵魂，隐藏于帽衫、城市街灯和匆匆步履之间，穿行在城市迷宫般的街巷中。在原始而又私密的瞬间，画面中的人物扭曲、交融，介乎人、动物和影子之间。他们的动作积蓄着张力，模糊了个人欲望和社会期许之间的界限，展览将深入探究其作品中公共生活和私人情感之间复杂的二元关系。本次展览由客座策展人马修·希格斯（白柱空间总监兼首席策展人）和王宗孚（木木美术馆常务副馆长兼艺术总监）联合策划。关于艺术家艺术家肖像

Florian Krewer
Nice Dog
Curated by Matthew Higgs, director and chief curator, White Columns, and Victor Wang, artistic & executive director, M WOODS Museum
M WOODS 798
December 02, 2023 – March 02, 2024M WOODS Museum proudly presents "Nice Dog," the most comprehensive survey of the paintings of Florian Krewer (b. 1986, Gerolstein, Germany) to date and the artist’s first institutional solo exhibition in Asia. The exhibition is a collaboration with the Aspen Art Museum, which showed the artist's first institutional solo exhibition in the United States earlier this year.
With the New York night as his muse, Krewer paints all the vastness, liberation, and uncertainty it has to offer. Derived from lived experiences and fantasy, the artist creates a seductive world of magical encounters set against the staged backdrops of imagined landscapes and interiors. Primal needs, longing, and precarious interactions are depicted with the greater intention of revealing our collective vulnerabilities.
Exhibited in the urban sprawl of Beijing, Krewer's work captures the off-beat pulse of city life, portraying figures in varying states of stress and release, ready for the night. In raw and intimate moments, Krewer's characters twist, merge, and engage with animals and shadows. Their actions, fraught with tension, blur the line between personal desires and societal expectations. "Nice Dog" delves deep into this dichotomy, exploring the complex interplay of private passions against the backdrop of public existence.
The exhibition is guest curated by Matthew Higgs, director and chief curator, White Columns with Victor Wang, artistic & executive director, M WOODS Museum.
