偶然浮现 |DASEIN存在
初次看到旅美艺术家许帅的作品,是在2019年的Claremont Graduate University(克莱蒙特研究生大学,诞生多位著名艺术家如James Turrell 詹姆斯 特瑞尔,Karl Benjamin卡尔本杰明等)。他当时刚毕业于天津美院。在CGU-MFA专业学习,他的作品在当时可以看到非常出色的绘画技巧和丰富的主题,但并未形成稳定独立创作语言。时隔4年再次见到许帅的作品,可以看出,他的作品以梦境中出现的黑点作为起点由两个方向发展,相互关联。一个是大地艺术项目,另一个是油画。梦境指向了关于“存在”的思考起点,而“虚”与“实”之间的未知感延伸至星空,他的作品里不断的在探索自我的身体活动内部的虚实与人到宇宙的未知关系。确定的思维可见的世界,不确定的远方混沌的认知在一次次的创作中相互拉扯。

In the collaborative exhibition "DASEIN Existence" by INTHE_ and DOSE, we present Xu Shuai's Land Art piece "4C+37.11" as a soft installation within the space. This decision serves two purposes: to maintain the integrity of the artist's creative path and to fulfill the idea of flying kites indoors alongside Xu Shuai, who will be present at the event. Given the strong sense of design and structure in the IN THE_ space, when setting up this artwork, we initiated discussions on the perception of the circular black hole within the space. The final presentation creates a relatively independent space within the environment. As we approach the artwork, following the traction rope and gazing at the black entity, it sways with the wind, resembling a living being that absorbs all disturbances in the corner, leaving behind a moment of utmost tranquility.
另一方面,许帅的绘画作品与它的大地艺术分享着同样的创作理念,他的装置将现有实体世界分割,形成的空洞像思绪的漩涡,在形变的过程中拉扯自我的虚实。同样的探索过程体现在他的画作之中,明快或鲜亮的色彩里,形状起伏与画布,画布被其分割,或深入,画布如同一个水平面,而创作者和他的笔触,带着不同的色彩空间在其间游移。
在他的系列绘画'HE0450-2958'中,他使用同一色与白色相互间隔的垂直线条,在模糊过度中,相互的垂直线条形成了相对稳定的画面结构和色彩感受,在稳定的画面里,出现大小不同的圆形小球,小球在线条之间忽起忽落,时而看似由线条之间跃出,时而在背景里退去,在虚实之间充满了极强的不确定感,元素极度简单的运用,却能直观的给观者很强的思考延伸区域。
'HE0450-2958'系列作品在空间结构,色彩和形状上有着不同的变化方式,以最简单的方式去讨论许帅的创作逻辑。在虚实之间,我们不确定已知的是什么,但是我们能确定这思考的开始,是由画面展开的。这种放空而又丰富的的思维状态,会是每次看到这一系列绘画作品最直观感受。而这种感受也是我非常喜欢许帅绘画的原因,生活中的大部分物件都是相对确定的,确定的功能,确定的轮廓与色彩。而属于许帅画面的这个区域,是一个不确定的墒,是一个空间内思维可以走向更广阔或更安静的一个区域。
On the other hand, Xu Shuai's paintings share the same creative concept as his Land Art. In his series of paintings titled "HE0450-2958," he employs vertically interspersed lines alternating between a monochromatic and white palette. Through the blurred transitions, these intersecting lines form a relatively stable composition and evoke a sense of color. Within the stable composition, various-sized circular balls emerge and recede between the lines, at times seemingly leaping from between them and at others retreating into the background. The interplay between the abstract and concrete creates a profound sense of uncertainty, despite the simplicity of the elements used. This allows viewers to intuitively explore extended realms of contemplation. The "HE0450-2958" series exhibits different variations in spatial structure, color, and form, engaging in a concise dialogue that reveals Xu Shuai's artistic logic. Amidst the abstract and the concrete, we are uncertain about what we already know, but we can affirm that the journey of contemplation commences with the visual narratives. This state of empty yet abundant thinking is the most immediate impression evoked by Xu Shuai's series of paintings, and it is precisely why I admire his art. In everyday life, most objects possess relative certainty in terms of function, form, and color. However, within the realm of Xu Shuai's paintings, there exists an uncertain territory—an area of thoughts that can expand to encompass broader or quieter dimensions.
