Countdown To Closing | CAFA Undergraduate Graduation Exhibition (Part 1) Coming to An End

2026-06-04

长久以来,在中央美术学院的教学体系中,对本科生的培养一直是重中之重,对本科生的重视不但在于众多名师大家悉心指导,尤其在于这些年轻艺术生命的可塑性和对现实生活敏锐的艺术感知和真挚的艺术表达,当这些蓬勃的年轻生命力与现实社会种种迎头相遇时,便产生了敏锐、动人的艺术之光。这些优秀作品以其真挚的情感,真诚的态度,鲜活的艺术表现力,既成为了优秀本科生本人的成名作,也形成了中央美术学院本科毕业创作深受社会各界广泛关注的优良传统,同时也在一定程度上深度参与建构了新中国以来的现当代艺术发展。本届中央美术学院本科毕业展分为两个阶段。第一阶段自2026年5月20日至6月3日,展出城市设计学院、油画系、壁画系、艺术管理和教育学院、修复学院和实验艺术与科技艺术学院的本科毕业生作品,这些作品涉及到艺术中的几个基本面向:城市、绘画、艺术管理、修复和AI、交互等高科技加持下的艺术形态。本科生毕业展第二阶段即将于6月8日至6月22日面向公众开放,参展院系有:中国画学院、书法学院、版画系、雕塑系、人文学院、设计学院、建筑学院、继续教育学院。6月4日至6月7日因布撤展需要临时闭馆,请观众朋友们合理安排时间。For a long time, undergraduate education has stood as a top priority within the teaching framework of the Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA). The academy values its undergraduates not only through meticulous tutoring from numerous distinguished master artists, but more importantly on account of these young budding artists’ malleable creative potential, sharp artistic intuition rooted in real-life observations, and sincere artistic articulation. When their vibrant youthful vitality collides head-on with diverse facets of contemporary society, incisive and stirring sparks of artistic creation emerge. Fueled by heartfelt emotions, earnest creative stances and vivid expressive prowess, these outstanding artworks have served as career-defining debut pieces for their undergraduate creators. They have also fostered a long-standing fine tradition whereby CAFA’s undergraduate graduation creations attract extensive attention from all walks of society, and to a notable extent, contributed profoundly to shaping the evolution of modern and contemporary Chinese art.The current edition of CAFA’s Undergraduate Graduation Exhibition is split into two phases. Phase One ran from May 20 to June 3, 2026, featuring graduate works by undergraduates from the School of Urban Design, Department of Oil Painting, Department of Mural Painting, School of Arts Management and Education, School of Art Restoration, and School of Experimental and Tech Art. The exhibited pieces span core artistic dimensions, including urban-themed creation, painting, arts administration, art conservation, as well as art forms empowered by cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and interactive media.Phase Two of the Undergraduate Graduation Exhibition will open to the public from June 8 to June 22. Participating schools and departments cover the School of Chinese Painting, School of Calligraphy, Department of Printmaking, Department of Sculpture, School of Humanities, School of Design, School of Architecture, and School of Continuing Education. The venue will be temporarily closed to visitors from June 4 to June 7 for exhibition installation and dismantling preparations. All visitors are advised to plan their trips accordingly.城市设计学院城市设计学院的作品虽然分成了“艺术城市”、“创意城市”和“文化城市”三个大的主题,但本质都是在探讨城市环境与人类行为的双向塑造,尤其是在城市环境下人类行为的文化表现形式及其内在的演变逻辑。就其本质来说,城市,并不仅仅是基于大众需求而建造的各式街道、大型商超、酒店、写字楼、图书馆、电影院等消费实体以及学校、医院、法庭、政府机关等各级社会管理机构的综合体;城市,更是某种文化的复杂综合体,这些文化依靠不同的风俗和传统,以及所包含的态度和情感,形成了一座城市的灵魂内容。人类在雄心勃勃地建造城市实现梦想的同时,也被城市无情地塑造和异化成一副面目全非的模样。实验艺术与科技艺术学院实验艺术与科技艺术学院的作品则是在人工智能和自动化系统飞速发展的当代社会条件下,追问人类生存的终极意义和日常生活的价值所在。当这种追问以某些极具冲击力的艺术形式在观者面前展现时,日常生活的荒诞一览无遗。这两个学院的部分作品汲取了山海经、二十四节气、儒道释思想、中医药、各地非遗、各地戏曲等中国传统文化因素,回应了在中华民族伟大复兴的时代浪潮下传统文化的当代转化和表达。油画系 壁画系油画系和壁画系的作品更多地体现在对艺术语言的极致追求,这可以在一定程度上说是中央美术学院各造型院系的根本。艺术是对世界的一种感知和表征方式,因此,对艺术语言的千锤百炼早已超越了形式技巧的层面,进而成为艺术的本质体现之一。在当今普遍浮躁成风、急功近利的社会大环境下,这种对艺术语言的重视和坚守,尤其是在年轻的本科毕业生身上所体现出的定力,实在是难能可贵。期待这些踏踏实实接续绘画传统的本科毕业生早日在艺术上取得突破。从本届本科毕业展作品的整体内容看,无论是油画、壁画,还是公共艺术和实验艺术,都涉及到对社会性别和身份以及日常生活中所蕴含的隐秘权力运作机制的认知和表达,这些内容显示了部分年轻艺术家的思考深度:艺术从来都不是那些花里胡哨可有可无的点缀品,而是某种可以承载生命中深刻内涵的表征媒介。期待第二阶段(6.8-6.22)的本科毕业作品展同样精彩。主编 / 何一沙 责编  / 杜隐珠 供稿 / 红梅 编辑 / 张妮

2026-06-02

这个六一,来中央美术学院美术馆二层玻璃展厅,赴一场关于“看见”与“被看见”的温暖约会。这里正在呈现绘本创作工作室第20届本科毕业生的作品。每年此时,这些充满情感与温度的绘本,都会成为连接大小朋友心灵的桥梁。薄薄几十页的翻动间,是绘声写影的努力,是寻真返本的追求,更是一个个等待与你相遇的、丰盈而独特的世界。当你驻足,你读到的或许与作者创作的初衷全然不同。但这正是作品的魅力所在——所有的不同解读,都是作品的拓展;所有的感同身受,都是灵魂的碰撞。中央美院本科生毕业展(一阶段)即将于6月3日闭展,请暂时放下繁杂,跟随线条与色彩,进入这个简单与丰富并存、现实与想象相谐的二元世界吧!童心国《童心国》莫佳翰在每个人的内心深处,都有一个与生俱来的童心国。童心国是非常美好的,如果你珍爱它,你就可以一直保持童心,拥有纯真善良和有趣的灵魂;如果你忽视它,它就会随着时间和你成长环境的改变慢慢消失。一夜之间,童心国四个区域的总管们用最后能量来到现实,帮她重拾友谊、重写愿望、与父母和解。四枚徽章重新点亮,童心国复苏。女孩找回了童心,也找回了自己。起起落落《起起落落》黄汝茜《起起落落》是一部以“自然力量”为核心的绘本,将万物运行中“上升”的动力与“落下”的归宿,分别拟人化为“起起”与“落落”两种看不见的力量。起起负责让万物升起、出发;落落负责让万物落下、归去,起起和落落,一同守护着世间万物。用四季作为叙事框架展开,呈现万物运行的节奏与循环。结局博物馆不等了《不等了》余晓琳《不等了》讲述兔一穿越五个寓言世界——蜂巢工厂、纸狼荒原、猫咪都市、虚无鱼港、游云驿站。每站一种身份困境:被量化、被排斥、被凝视、被虚无吞噬。兔一不是拯救者,只是信使。最终它不再等待被认可,纵身跃入流动的旅途。想·象《想·象》 李念想象的本意是想念大象,是对未知之物的幻想,“象”是实体也是精神寄托。当我们出生于一片既定的环境,想象就是发现和创造的底层代码。绘本讲述了小石头在流星的撞击中诞生,跟随陨石坑里的遗迹逐渐看到这个星球上一个文明的记忆——藻类文明如何在“想”的能量中创生、在“象”的支撑与庇护下从繁荣到暗淡的故事。在它将象骨的全貌发掘出后,它完全感受到了这个星球“想·象”与创造的能量,决定学会运用这个能量创造属于它的文明,越来越多的“想”融进它的“象”,融进星球的脉络,变成新的想象火种埋进地里、飞向远方,继续着新的文明循环。只要想·象在奔走,宇宙间的文明注定生生不息。最好的礼物《最好的礼物》郭洪羽生病的小狐狸已经很久没有出门了,这一天,他收到了来自好朋友们的礼物:一个装着纸星星的许愿瓶,他许下了和朋友们相见的愿望。到了夜晚,他的朋友们果然乘着一架大大的纸飞机来到了他的窗前,他们竟然一同飞到了月亮上,在这里,他们遇到了同样孤单的一只兔子,小狐狸和伙伴们一同用折纸为月亮上的兔子留下了最好的礼物.在故事中,最后谜底揭开,月亮上的小免其实一直都在小狐狸身边:它是小狐狸的玩具娃娃,而那座月亮上美丽的折纸城,其实也是小狐狸内心的象征……预约通道2026中央美院毕业季线上预约购票通道开启,观众可通过中央美术学院美术馆小程序、微信公众号或官网进行预约购票(购票说明详见官网)。最早可提前7天预约。每日观展名额限量约满为止,毕业季期间美术馆周一正常开放。预约时需使用有效证件进行实名预约,每人当天只能预约一次,预约成功后,观众按预约时间到场。毕业季期间,在中央美术学院北门票务专用通道刷身份证等有效证件验票进馆。主编 / 何一沙 责编 / 杜隐珠

梦开始的地方 | 央美油画系毕业生的内在回响

2026-05-28

“中央美院本科生毕业展”第一阶段展期过半,油画系的毕业生们为公众呈现了一场关于绘画本体、视觉表达与精神成长的集中探索。每一笔色彩的起落之处,潜藏着青年艺术家“梦开始的地方”。20多岁的笔触描绘虽稍显稚嫩,但他们将个人记忆与生活经验凝固成富有触感的画面,体现出年轻一代对油画的语言最本真的敬畏与拓展。梦开始的地方作品名称:《画室2026》作者:李鹏威尺寸:100×300cm材料:布面油画作品以中央美术学院工作室为创作原型,致敬现实主义画家库尔贝的《画室》,以写实的手法还原画室一角的真实场景。画面中的画架、管道、天光与墙面痕迹,不仅是日常空间的记录,更是创作者从向往、沉浸到即将毕业告别这段追梦时光的情感载体,因此它也被命名为《梦开始的地方》。在AI技术对图像生产与架上绘画形成冲击的当下,作品也是一次立场回应:AI可模仿已有的视觉范式,却无法复刻创作者的个体体验与情感温度。架上绘画的核心价值,正体现在创作者以肉身感知世界、以笔触传递情绪的过程中,这正是技术无法替代的、属于人的艺术表达。在房子两边作品名称:《在房子两边Ⅰ》《在房子两边Ⅱ》作者:赵梓羽尺寸:148*110cm材料:布面油画这组系列创作所表达的是作者自己体会到的“我”和“世界”之间的关系。“在房子两边”像一个引子,上面的人物和下面靠右的人物被我罩在了一个房间,但却不在一幅画面里。画面以人物,自然环境,窗格,拟房屋的红色罩色几何形作为视觉符号。将它们并置于一个空间中,通过符号之间的位置关系,红绿色块的分割等,拉开视觉和心理距离。画面里的视觉符号看起来独立却又在构图,颜色,意象逻辑中互相关联,有着隐秘的联系。侉子店作品名称:《侉子店》作者:杨天爱尺寸:195*140cm材料:布面油画指导老师:喻红 陆亮 刘商英 迟明画面以深夜街角为场景,一片被遗落于地的绿色防尘布在路灯斜照下泛起冷冽的微光,褶皱如河水的波痕,在砖块的压抑中仍隐隐起伏。远方树林融为一片深邃的墨黑,天空被层叠的雾霾染成暗淡的锈红色,无星无月,唯有寂静的风声贯穿街道。那抹似曾相识的、来自记忆深处的温钝绿色,悄然中和了场景原本的刺目与疏离。这是作者对“日常物的时间性”与“记忆投射”的视觉思辨。他将防尘布这一工业时代的短暂覆盖物,转化为承载情感与时间深度的“河流”,通过油画特有的厚重肌理与层次叠染,构建出物质与隐喻之间的微妙平衡。覆羽作品名称:覆羽作品材质:丙烯 颜彩 马克笔 油画棒 胶水转印 绢拼贴于亚麻布作品尺寸:各150*220cm创作时间:2026作者姓名:李嘉宇导师:裴咏梅 郭亚冠这两幅创作是将歌曲给作者潜意识植入的意境捕捉在画布上的一次尝试,灵感直接源自两首对其意义非凡的歌曲。在画面色调的选择上完全遵循听感:黄色的这张灵感来源于The Cure 的《Just Like Heaven》,这首歌拥有明亮的旋律,在作者耳中是灿烂、眩晕且带有梦幻感的暖黄色,但是内核是忧伤的;蓝色的这张灵感来源于Gorillaz 的 《On Melancholy Hill》,呈现出一种克制、清冷又略带明亮的忧郁蓝色,但是内核是温暖的。画面中可以识别出的具象元素来源于歌词:plastic tree(塑料树),spinning (旋转)…结合自身在不同地点收集的素材,采用元素拼接的方法,如碎片般将歌词中捕捉到的零散意象提取出来,在画面中进行大量重复。这些不断叠加的符号按照乐曲中的节奏分布,通过元素的堆砌构建出一种非线性的叙事感。正如标题《覆羽》一般,“覆”代表着作者的绘画方式:通一层层半透明的图层重叠,覆盖,最后形成出来的视觉效果。“羽”是其试图营造一种如羽般的朦胧轻盈漂浮感,尝试通过色彩的纯粹感受和符号的重叠,将音乐的瞬时抽象听感固化为视觉的叙事空间。红钢作品名称:《红钢》作者:孙潇尺寸:200×150cm材料:布面油画作品的创作画面取材于青岛港口船厂,结合了作者家乡港口机械的工业构成与家乡记忆。通过强烈的几何秩序,传递出工业文明的磅礴张力,并以明快鲜艳的色彩赋予冰冷的钢铁温度和色彩,是作者对家乡工业景观的一次诗意的重构。内向回响作品名称:《内向回响》作者:王齐尺寸:150×200cm材料:木板、白蜂蜡、达玛树脂、油画作者以“透过玻璃瓶向外看”的视角为灵感,用圆心向外辐射的视觉结构,呈现情绪的变化过程。蜡的温度、重量、肌理、光泽都变成抽象表达里独立的词汇。厚重肌理代表情绪起伏的痕迹,向外扩散的纹路,是记录了思绪与感知在心中震荡、折返、归敛的过程。所有向外的延伸,终是向内的归返,完成一场沉静而持续的内心回响。预约通道2026中央美院毕业季线上预约购票通道开启,观众可通过中央美术学院美术馆小程序、微信公众号或官网进行预约购票(购票说明详见官网)。最早可提前7天预约。每日观展名额限量约满为止,毕业季期间美术馆周一正常开放。预约时需使用有效证件进行实名预约,每人当天只能预约一次,预约成功后,观众按预约时间到场。毕业季期间,在中央美术学院北门票务专用通道刷身份证等有效证件验票进馆。主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠现场图 / 孙霄萌

We will also advance the creative transformation and innovative development of our fine collections. Fulfilling our core responsibilities in cultural inheritance, art education and public service, we strive to build a solid bridge connecting academic research and public art appreciation.Imported Oil Painting-A Retrospective Exhibition Of The Maksimov Oil Painting Program At CAFA(1955–1957) Exhibition Dates: November 15, 2025 – January 3, 2026Venue: Galleries, 1/F, 3A & 4/F, CAFA Art MuseumLooking back on the history of Chinese art education and the development of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, the founding of the Maximov Oil Painting Training Class seventy years ago marked a pivotal chapter in the evolution of Chinese oil painting in the 20th century. To systematically review and fully showcase the teaching achievements and academic significance of this historic initiative, CAFA Art Museum presents the Retrospective Exhibition of Teaching Achievements of the Maximov Oil Painting Program (1955–1957), running from November 15, 2025 to January 18, 2026. Centered on the major teaching activities of the training class between 1955 and 1957, the exhibition features graduate works from the class selected from the museum’s permanent collection. To ensure a comprehensive presentation, the curatorial team has gathered over 240 exhibits from diverse sources including the National Art Museum of China, Shanghai Art Museum, artists’ families, private collectors and art institutions. The collection encompasses works created by Soviet expert Konstantin Maximov during his tenure in China, indoor and outdoor sketches, study pieces and creative drafts by the class participants. As the most complete, comprehensive and academically insightful exhibition dedicated to the history and artistic value of the Maximov Oil Painting Training Class, this show traces the origins of realistic expression and educational development of Chinese oil painting, and revisits the groundbreaking start of realistic oil painting in higher art education and artistic creation in the early People’s Republic of China.Energy and Civilization – An Immersive Public Art Education Series Integrating Science and Art,taking the public education and art promotion of the exhibition Energy and Civilization as the carrier and guided by cutting-edge science showcased in the show, this initiative pioneers innovative practices across public services, art education outreach and interdisciplinary artistic expression. The full lineup features thematic lectures, forums, popular science salons, children’s science workshops, professional guided tours for the public, as well as opening light and performance acts and a closing energy-themed electronic music public theatre. Through immersive experiences, the series delivers public outreach that blends science with art education.Interflowing Artscapes -- CAFAM International Exchange Research Exhibition from the CollectionExhibition Dates: September – October 2025Venue: CAFA Art MuseumInterflowing Artscapes -- CAFAM International Exchange Research Exhibition from the Collection was on view from July 18 to September 3, 2025. It marks the first systematic academic sorting and public presentation of the museum’s international art collection. The exhibition not only showcases its collected artworks and academic achievements, but also serves as a pioneering and valuable exploration for art museums across China to curate exhibitions with a global art historical vision based on their own collections. During the preparation phase, the exhibition received professional guidance from art historians including Yi Ying, Shao Yiyang and Yu Runsheng. More than 200 international artworks were carefully selected, spanning three centuries from 19th-century European oil paintings to contemporary art. Geographically, the pieces cover five continents from the Americas to Oceania. Over 80 percent of the exhibits were displayed to the public for the very first time since being acquired.The exhibition consists of two sections: International Art Treasures and Chinese Reflections. The first section presents the museum’s global collection vision from the perspective of cultural diversity. The second features works themed on China created by four foreign artists during their stay in the country, showcasing impressions of China through foreign perspectives. Together, they form a two-way observation and dialogue — looking out at the world from within and viewing China from the outside — aiming to reveal the profound significance of cultural exchange and mutual learning. The exhibition not only reflects the museum’s development as well as the achievements of art education and international exchanges at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, but also depicts the landscape of Sino-foreign cultural communication and the global art ecosystem.| About CAFA Art Museum|CAFA Art Museum is a professional and international modern art museum integrating academic research, exhibition display, collection conservation and public education.
