Details

1900 - 1949

From the early 20th century, against the backdrop of national crisis, social turmoil, and the pursuit of national salvation, a new form of art gradually emerged as an important means to enlighten the people and seek national rejuvenation. The following decades marked a crucial period in which Chinese art transitioned towards modernity and witnessed the rise of modern art education.On the one hand, the artists absorbed achievements and methods from art all over the world. On the other hand, the artists studied and inherited our nation’s traditional art while advocating for engagement with society, focusing on reality, striving and seeking to create a new form of art suitable for the needs of modern social development.

1950 - 1976

On October 1st, 1949, the People’s Republic of China was founded, and the development of art came to a historic pivot. During this period, art aimed to serve the masses of workers, peasants, and soldiers, advocating for “people’s new art”. Art education became formalized, drawing lessons from experiences of countries such as Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, and gradually mastering the methods and laws of modern art education and creation. This period saw an elevation in artistic expression and the begining of explorations into “Chinese style, Chinese spirit”. Artists embraced society with great enthusiasm, integrating revolutionary realism with revolutionary romanticism to serve the transformative socialist construction. Artistic creation during this period exerted extensive social influence and impact.

1977 - 2000

The policy of “reform and opening-up, and emancipate the mind” of the time dramatically changed Chinese society and introduced a new phase for Chinese art. Situated in an open world and a relaxed environment, artists engaged in profound reflections on history, culture and human nature while envisioning the future with confidence. Additionally, they attended more in the discussion and exploration of the inherent laws of art development itself, and attempted to make breakthroughs and experiment with more diversified and personalized expressions in terms of language, form, and subject matter. They gradually developed their own styles and delved into deeper levels of research on the essence and laws of art.

Preface

Being among the first batch of national key art museums, the Art Museum of Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA Art Museum) upholds the academic concept of “being inclusive, embracing the past, opening up the future.” It is committed to constructing contemporary public cultural spaces and a distinctive collection system, aiming to establish a unique narrative of art history. Over its century-long history since its establishment (originating from the Beiping Art School), CAFA and its subsequent art museum have consistently and systematically conducted collection activities. Currently, the museum houses over 20,000 diverse artworks spanning ancient and modern periods, encompassing both Chinese and Western art. The collection includes numerous works by renowned masters across various fields of art, establishing sequences such as ancient Chinese art, modern and contemporary Chinese art, and collections of works by CAFA faculty and students. This official launch of a long-term exhibition features classic artworks from the collection, and presents the development of Chinese art history. It serves as an academic exploration to revitalize the museum's collection and provides rich cultural and historical perspectives to society, along with valuable resources and core values for the research and education of art. The 20th century was a pivotal period in the development of Chinese art, and CAFA has actively participated throughout, playing a significant role to lead and to promote. Its faculty and students have created numerous classic works that have had a profound impact on modern Chinese art history. The current exhibition features over 200 artworks from 20th century Chinese art, organized chronologically into three sections: 1900-1949, 1950-1976, and 1977-2000, presenting the development of plastic arts over a century. Artworks are memories of their times, encapsulating the emotions of artists and the essence of their era. They serve as visual reflections of history, allowing audiences to experience the artistic pursuits, explorations, and the zeitgeist depicted in these works across different periods.

《群英会上的赵桂兰》作品原名《党的好女儿——赵桂兰》，是新中国新年画的代表之作。1950年9月25日，“全国工农兵劳动模范代表会议”和“全国战斗英雄代表会议”在京召开，劳动模范赵桂兰出席会议并得到毛主席的接见。赵桂兰因用身躯保卫国家财产不受损害而导致残疾，其事迹得到了人民的传颂，此时林岗响应学院号召创作了这幅劳模题材的作品。>>>>《群英会上的赵桂兰》林岗 1951年绢本设色 138 x 176cm 中央美术学院美术馆藏《群英会上的赵桂兰》是第一次表现国家领导人和人民群众在一起的主题性绘画作品，作品的构图受到达·芬奇《最后的晚餐》等古典主义艺术的影响。无论是横向展开的桌子还是桌子背后的人物组合都表现出这一点。作品上方一排排宫灯的描绘更加深了透视效果。此后类似的“向心式结构”对毛泽东题材的主题创作产生过很大影响。画面中的人物错落有致地排列着，形成了一条弧线，作品以橙红色调为主，营造出温暖的古典氛围。毛主席身着深棕色的中山装，赵桂兰则着画面中最鲜亮的蓝色女式工服，这种搭配增强的画面的视觉效果。林岗在细节处理上非常用心，如画面中的宫灯、地毯、花盆等均有参考资料可查，通过细腻的笔触和色彩表现，使得这些物品富有美感。特别值得一提的是，赵桂兰带着白手套的左手，林岗用白手套艺术性地处理了这一细节，既交代了赵桂兰的英勇事迹，又表达了她对生活的积极乐观态度。整幅作品采用了勾线平涂方式，使得画面更加清晰、明快，易于被观众接受和理解。该作品在第二届全国年画评奖中荣获一等奖，其出版发行在百万份以上，将新年画创作推向了一个时代高峰。>>>>中央美术学院美术馆藏陈列——现代中国美术展览时间：2024年7月23日起展览地点：中央美术学院美术馆2层B展厅展览专业照明赞助：AKZU（深圳市埃克苏照明系统有限公司）展览空间建筑设计顾问：中国建筑科学研究院主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠

: Art: The Expression of Life's Inspiration | On January 12th, Let's Visit CAFA Art Museum

2025-01-07

The exhibition "Collection of CAFA Art Museum - Modern Chinese Art" will reopen on January 12th. Composed of classic works from the museum's collection, this exhibition presents the historical development of Chinese art. It is an academic exploration to bring the museum's collections to life, and also serves to provide society with a rich cultural and historical panorama, aesthetic education resources, as well as the core values for art teaching and research.The 20th century was an important period for the development of Chinese art. The Central Academy of Fine Arts has been involved in this process from the very beginning and has played a positive role in promoting and leading the way. Its teachers and students have created a large number of classic works, which have had a huge impact on the history of modern Chinese art.This exhibition showcases over 200 Chinese artworks from the 20th century collected by the museum. Taking time as the main thread, it is divided into three sections: 1900 - 1949, 1950 - 1976, and 1977 - 2000, presenting the development context of the century-long plastic arts. Through this exhibition, visitors can experience the artistic pursuits and explorations of different periods, as well as the era features presented in the artworks. Here will introduce the main content of the third section of the exhibition, "1977 - 2000".The Third Section1977 - 2000The period from 1977 to 2000 witnessed that the reform and opening up brought about tremendous social changes that emancipated people's minds, and also ushered in a new stage of development for fine arts. Facing an open world and a relaxed environment, artists conducted in-depth reflections on history, culture, human nature, etc., and at the same time, looked forward to the future with full confidence. Artists paid attention to the development laws of art creation, carried out discussions and explorations, tried various breakthroughs, strived for diversification in aspects such as language, form and theme of their works, and gradually formed their own styles. The research on the essence and laws of art also advanced to a deeper level. The artworks from the collection of CAFA Art Museum of the Central Academy of Fine Arts also fully embody the changes and innovations of this period. The rise and fall of various artistic concepts, the aesthetic transformation of diverse genres, the inheritance and development of the integration of Chinese and Western elements, and the expression where form serves the connotation have endowed these artworks with a truly "independent life".From 1977 to the early 1980s, works such as The Young Man Resisting Illness, Tibetan Girl, Little Eighth Route Soldier and Girl Washing Hair demonstrated an attention to reality and reflections on human nature. The mid-1980s to the early 1990s was a golden age for the diversified development of art. Not only did people like Jin Shangyi explore neoclassicism and modern oil painting language, and Li Keran and others express the integration of Chinese painting and Western painting techniques, but also Yang Feiyun and others made contributions to realistic painting. Examples include Huang Binhong in His Later Years, The Hills Bathed in the Glow of the Setting Sun and Sisters (Buryat Ethnic Group). The Corridor of the Affiliated Middle School, Chuan, Charm of Snow and Under the Window after the Rain are good examples. Meanwhile, after going through restoration, reconstruction, as well as technological innovation during this period, the printmaking of the Central Academy of Fine Arts entered a more mature and in-depth development stage. Represented by Xu Bing and Su Xinping, prints became more diverse in themes and forms, such as Places with Mountains and The Quiet Town No.1.These works all showcase the rich artistic characteristics and the spirit of the times. The inspiration for art from life is multi-faceted, and hoped that this exhibition can touch the hearts of the audience and prompt them to think about life and human nature.>>>>The Third SectionSome of the artworks on displayThe Young Man Kangsheng by Su Gaoli, 1977, Oil on Paper, 78.5×54.5 cm, Collected by CAFA Art MuseumTibetan Girl by Sun Jingbo, 1979, Oil on Panel, 80×55 cm, Collected by CAFA Art MuseumThe Girl Washing Her Hair by Chen Danqing, 1980, Oil on Panel, 54×68 cm, Collected by CAFA Art MuseumMy Hometown Yimeng Mountain No.1: Bringing a Message to Mother by Wang Yidong, 1982, Oil on Canvas, 184×170 cm, Collected by CAFA Art MuseumSisters (Buryat Ethnic Group) by Yang Feiyun, 1982, Oil on Canvas, 140×118 cm, Collected by CAFA Art MuseumChuan by Yu Hong 1988 Oil on canvas 130×140cm Collection of CAFA Art MuseumThe Corridors of The Affiliated Middle School by Wei Qimei 1990 Oil on canvas 118x140cm Collection of CAFA Art MuseumQuiet Night (Portrait Series of Wen Yiduo No.3) by Wen Lipeng, 1991, oil on canvas, 132x162cm, Collection of CAFA Art MuseumThe Rising Moon by Ma Changli, 1992, oil on canvas, 60x73cm, Collection of CAFA Art MuseumHuang Binhong in Later Years by Jin Shangyi, 1996, oil on canvas, 115×99cm, Collection of CAFA Art MuseumUnder the Window after Rain by Dai Shihe, 1998, oil on canvas, 120×120 cm，Collection of CAFA Art MuseumSnow Rhyme by Hong Ling, 1999, oil on canvas, 97x145cm, Collection of CAFA Art MuseumRural Life by Xie Dongming in 1999, oil on canvas, sized 80×120cm, Collection of CAFA Art MuseumGreen Mountains in the Glow of the Setting Sun by Li Keran, 1980s, ink and color on paper, 70×46.5cm, collected by the CAFA Art MuseumDream of Dunhuang - Deep Affection between Mother and Child by Tang Yongli, 1995, ink and color on paper, 82x82cm, collected by CAFA Art Museum Little Eight Roads by Sun Zixi, 1977, lithograph, monochrome, 59×47cm, Collection of CAFA Art MuseumSpring Tides by Yan Han, 1978, monochromatic woodblock print, 35×40cm, collected by CAFA Art MuseumPlaces with Mountains by Xu Bing, 1988, monochromatic woodblock print, 53×72.5cm, collected by CAFA Art Museum Silent Town No.1 by Su Xinping, 1989, monochromatic lithograph, 53×68cm, collected by CAFA Art Museum>>>>Collection Of CAFA Art Museum-- Modern Chinese ArtExhibition Period: July 23, 2024 onwards Exhibition Venue: CAFA Art Museum, 2F, Gallery B Editor-in-chief / He Yisha Editor / Du Yinzhu

: Jin Shangyi: "There Is No Individuality Without The Nationalities Being Reflected In The Paintings" | Huang Binhong in His Late Years, CAFAM Collection

2025-01-11

>>>>Huang Binhong in His Late Years, Jin Shangyi, 1996, oil on canvas, 115×99cm, Collection of CAFA Art MuseumHuang Binhong in Late Years is a representative work of Jin Shangyi's peak period of oil painting, created in 1996. This work is now on display in the "Modern Chinese Art" collection of CAFA Art Museum.The picture depicts Huang Binhong, one of the Four Great Masters of Chinese Painting in his later years, sitting on a rattan chair in a long robe. The background is set off by Huang Binhong's ink and water landscape works, using mostly small brushstrokes, combining the chapped points of Chinese painting with the pointillism of oil painting. Black and gray are the main colors of the picture, embellished by Huang's face, hands, and a few small areas of bright yellow leaking out of the rattan chair.The brightest part of the painting is at the top right of the picture - Huang Binhong's white beard - which quickly focuses the viewer's attention. Jin Shangyi has carefully carved Huang Binhong's features and hands, the head with fine brushstrokes to create solid features, the tightly furrowed brow on the forehead to carve out a few wrinkles and grooves; each joint of the hand is clearly visible, the veins protruding, and the control of these details exquisitely embodies the subject's state of mind.The delicate strokes and the profound capture of the spirit of the characters allow the audience to feel the serenity and transcendence of Huang Binhong's philosophy of art, and at the same time, it also reflects Jin Shangyi's tribute to his artistic predecessors, and is a profound interpretation of the artistic concept of "both form and spirit".Jin Shangyi once said: "I painted this work to try to do the experiment of nationalization of oil painting, that is, the experiment of combining ink and oil painting. In this kind of experiment, I want to express the spirit of national culture in Chinese art", "Nationality is the biggest personality, and individuality is a small personality, and there is no personality if there is no nationality embodied in the painting". The nationalization of oil painting is an important subject of modern Chinese oil painting, and also an important exploration direction of Jin Shangyi's oil painting art. "Huang Binhong in Late Years" conveys the artistic realm of this painting master's vigor and freedom.>>>>Collection Of CAFA Art Museum-- Modern Chinese ArtExhibition Period: July 23, 2024 onwards Exhibition Venue: CAFA Art Museum, 2F, Gallery BExhibition Professional Lighting Sponsor: AKZU (Shenzhen EKZU Lighting System Co., Ltd.)Architectural Design Consultant for Exhibition Space: China Academy of Building ResearchEditor-in-Chief / He Yisha Editor / Du Yinzhu
