: CAFAM Academic Season | Retrospective Lecture Forum "Cultivation and Exploration"

2025-10-09

Guest group photoForumIntroductionOn June 21, the forum 'Cultivation and Exploration: An Overview Of The Study and Current Status of The CAFA Art Museum Collection' was held at CAFA Art Museum.As part of the series of activities for the 2025 CAFAM Academic Season, the forum, themed 'Cultivation and Exploration', focuses on academic research, exhibition practices, and preservation status of museum collections. It aims to deeply explore the historical context, academic value, and contemporary significance of the museum's art collection. Taking the classic works on display in the museum's permanent exhibitions and the logic of collection building as its main body, the forum includes recent academic research achievement on these collections. It seeks to introduce the rich art collection of CAFA Art Museum to all sectors of society through this open academic exchange platform, promoting deeper research and broader dissemination of the collections. The forum has invited experts who have been deeply engaged in collection research in recent years to deliver keynote speeches. These experts have achieved much in individual case analysis of collections, exhibition planning, and restoration and preservation of collections. Divided into two sessions, 'History and Legacy' and 'Refinement and Renewal', the forum focuses respectively on 'Chinese Ancient Art' and 'Chinese Modern and Contemporary Fine Arts'. It covers overviews of different types of collections, introductions to representative works, and processes of collection maintenance, including cultural relics from art archaeology, ancient calligraphy and painting, ceramic art, religious art, modern oil paintings, and contemporary ink wash paintings. Notably, the content of this forum will also serve as important material for the Young Scholars Forum in the second half of the year.Director Jin Jun of CAFA Art Museum delivered a speechAt the beginning of the forum, Director Jin Jun of the museum delivered a speech on behalf of the art museum. He mentioned that this year, taking the opening of the second-floor collection exhibition as an opportunity, the 2025 "CAFAM Academic Series" was officially launched. The previously held International Art Museum Summit and the University Art Museum Alliance Conference have laid a high-standard foundation for the Academic Season, focusing on industry development and aesthetic education innovation. As a key part of the Academic Season, this forum will deeply explore the academic value and practical paths of the collection of CAFA Art Museum, which is of great significance. Jin Jun introduced that since its establishment, CAFA Art Museum has always been committed to art collection and academic research. Today, with nearly 30,000 pieces of collections spanning ancient and modern times, they are not only witnesses to the development of art but also important resources for exploring cultural lineages. Faced with the challenges of digitalization and globalization in global art museums, the museum hopes to build a bridge between academia and the public through the Academic Season, promoting collections from collection and research towards sharing.First Half: History and LegacyThe first half was hosted by Zhang Peng, a professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Art Studies, Director of the Editorial Department of the Academic Journal, and Deputy Director of the Collaborative Innovation Center for Silk Road Art Studies.Gao Gao, Deputy Director of CAFA Art Museum, made a speechGao Gao systematically introduced the development history and work achievements of the art museum. The Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum is a professional, international modern art museum integrating academic research, exhibition display, collection and restoration, and public education functions. It currently has nearly 30,000 collections. Its collection has been continuously enriched since the establishment of the Beijing Art School in 1918, gradually forming a complete sequence covering ancient, modern, and contemporary periods. Over the years, the museum has carried out systematic practical work such as exhibitions, publications, and restorations around its collections, with the collection display starting in 2024 being a representative phase achievement. These efforts fully reflect the unique value and responsibility of the museum as a research-oriented institution in the public cultural system, and also keep the collections constantly "vitalized", forming an organic cycle from "collection" to "research", "display", and then to "public sharing".Geng Shuo, Deputy Director of the Department of Cultural Heritage Studies, School of Humanities, and Deputy Director of the Research Center for Art Archaeology, Central Academy of Fine Arts, delivered a speech.Taking the collection's exhibited bronze mirrors and terracotta figurines as a starting point, such as the Han Dynasty 'Xi Wangmu Pounding Medicine' image mirror and 'Hunting and Harvesting' image brick, as well as Tang Dynasty polychrome music and dance figurines, Geng Shuo introduced the basic situation, sources, and key works of such collections from the perspective of art archaeology. This showcased the unique expressive forms and rich ideological connotations of ancient Chinese art in fields such as utensils, images, and sculpture.Tian Shuai, Professor of Beijing Normal University and Deputy Curator of the Cultural Relics Museum of Beijing Normal University, delivered a speechTian Shuai focused on the representative ceramic artifacts in the museum's collection. Taking the fine pieces on display—such as the celadon wares of the Longquan Kiln from the Song and Ming dynasties, the polychrome porcelains of the Kangxi reign in the Qing dynasty, and the red-glazed plates of the Yongzheng reign in the Qing dynasty—as examples, he introduced the basic status and origins of this type of collection. These ceramics come in a variety of categories, including celadon, white porcelain, and blue-and-white porcelain. Spanning a thousand years and covering a complete system of kilns, they systematically present the development process and artistic forms of ancient Chinese ceramic craftsmanship.Professor Huang Xiaofeng, Dean of the School of Humanities at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, made a speechHuang Xiaofeng introduced the basic situation of the art museum's collection of calligraphy and painting, as well as recent exhibition and research achievements, using high-quality ancient calligraphy and painting works on display, such as Ren Bynian's 'Xingqi Tu of Hengyun Shanmin' and Bada Shanren's 'Ink Lotus Diagram'. The collection of ancient calligraphy and painting by the Central Academy of Fine Arts began during the period of Beiping Art College. During the late 1950s when Xu Beihong served as the president, it started large-scale acquisitions and acceptance of donations. To date, including those from the affiliated middle school, the collection exceeds 2,000 pieces, mainly featuring Ming and Qing dynasty paintings, with some Song and Yuan dynasty paintings, Northern and Southern Dynasties, and Tang dynasty scriptural copies. In addition to works by renowned artists, some genre paintings and portrait paintings also reflect the possibility of the collection's initial service to teaching and the shift towards research in the discipline of art history.Zheng Yi, Professor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, delivered a speech.Zheng Yi gave an introduction focusing on the religious cultural relics in the collection, with special emphasis on 7 selected bronze statues of Tibetan Buddhism in the Ming and Qing dynasty styles displayed in the exhibition. These include two solemn statues of Sakyamuni, four elegant and graceful statues of Tara, and one statue of Mahasaraswati adorned with numerous ritual implements. He provided a detailed account of the basic information about these statues and their representative works, and explained that the themes and styles of these statues reflect the Tibetan Buddhist art trends led by the imperial courts of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Although it is difficult to confirm that they were supervised and crafted by the imperial workshops, their shapes and craftsmanship are quite remarkable. The Buddhist statues demonstrate diverse cultural features, and further embody the profound and far-reaching Chinese stories in their aesthetic and conceptual connotations.Second Half: Sublimation and RenewalThe second half was hosted by Liu Xiyan, Director of the Curatorial and Research Department at the CAFA Art MuseumProfessor Cao Qinghui of the Central Academy of Fine Arts made a speechCao Qinghui focused on the museum's collection of over a thousand modern oil painting treasures. Starting from works by early overseas-educated painters—such as Li Shutong's Semi-Nude Female Portrait (1909) and Wu Fading's Portrait of a Woman in Banner Dress—moving on to works by Soviet-educated artists like Li Tianxiang and Luo Gongliu after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and then to exploratory works by senior, middle-aged, and young academic artists since the reform and opening-up, he systematically sorted out the sources of the collection (including teacher donations, exhibition acquisitions, and outstanding works by graduates). He outlined the interactive trajectory between the century-long development of Chinese oil painting and academic education, demonstrated the core role of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and its predecessors in oil painting teaching, creation, and talent cultivation, as well as the history of Chinese social changes and the evolution of artistic language reflected behind this.Xu Yan, Oil Painting Restorer at the CAFA Art Museum, delivered a speechTaking the restoration of Li Shutong's Semi-Nude Female Portrait and Wu Fading's Seashore as examples, Xu Yan gave an in-depth introduction to the inspection and restoration work. After the 2012 authentication seminar for Semi-Nude Female Portrait, the restoration studio confirmed the work's creation date and authenticity through technical analysis, laying the foundation for its restoration. As for Seashore, it was able to be exhibited long-term in this collection exhibition after restoration. He emphasized that oil painting restoration work not only provides empirical evidence for building a research-oriented conservation system, but also holds great significance for the study of early 20th-century Chinese oil painting art.Yu Yang, Professor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Director of the Scientific Research Department, and Director of the Advanced Innovation Center for Visual Arts, delivered a speechTaking the fine modern and contemporary ink wash works on display—such as Xu Beihong’s Galloping Horses and Fu Baoshi’s Scroll of Landscapes—as a thread, Yu Yang analyzed the origin and historical evolution of the museum’s collection of modern and contemporary ink wash art, and expounded on its artistic characteristics and documentary value. The collection includes over 2,000 Chinese painting and calligraphy works from more than a century. It not only covers works by renowned artists from the early history of CAFA and the tradition of Chinese painting teaching at the academy since 1949, but also includes works from the Beijing art circle and other regional painting schools in the 20th century. It can be called an epitome of the context of calligraphy and painting from both northern and southern regions over the past century, and also a vivid and intuitive documentary and image archive of the history of 20th-century Chinese art education.Dou Tianwei, Paper-based Artwork Restorer at the CAFA Art Museum, delivered a speechTaking the restoration of Zheng Banqiao’s Calligraphy and Qi Baishi’s Morning Glories as examples, Dou Tianwei detailed the specific process of paper-based artwork restoration. He pointed out that restoration is an essential behind-the-scenes work in a museum’s collection management and exhibition. As a bridge connecting history to the present and original works to the audience, it not only concerns the physical integrity of the collections but also embodies respect for the continuity of cultural heritage. Regarding issues such as damage and fading that easily occur in paper-based collections due to the fragility of their material, professional methods including scientific inspection, cleaning treatment, structural reinforcement, and partial supplementation can be adopted. These methods, based on respecting the original condition of the works, help restore their original appearance, slow down deterioration, and ensure the quality of exhibition displays.Li Yaochen, Director of the Collection Department at the CAFA Art Museum, delivered a speechLi Yaochen gave an introduction focusing on the collection of individual artist cases. He expounded on the emphasis placed by the CAFA Art Museum on the construction of individual case sequences in its collection acquisition work since the museum's establishment, as well as the practices of in-depth interpretation and exploration of the value of individual case collections through exhibitions, publications, research, and other means. From the perspectives of the types of individual cases of modern artists, reflections and prospects on collection development, and research work, he presented the basic characteristics of the museum's collection work on individual cases of modern artists to the society and academic circles, and emphasized its importance in the composition of the collection.Han Wenchao, Secretary of the Directly Affiliated Party Branch of the CAFA Art Museum, delivered the closing speechForum VenueThe forum themed "Cultivation and Exploration: Research and Current Status of the Collections at the CAFA Art Museum" successfully concluded amid extensive responses from both online and offline audiences. In his closing speech, Secretary Han Wenchao stated that this academic feast is not only an in-depth analysis of the historical context and academic value of the museum's collected artworks, but also an innovative exploration of art research methodologies. The end of the forum is not a finish line, but a starting point for a new journey. Its achievements will serve as an important foundation for the Young Scholars Forum in the second half of the year, continuously promoting the deepening and dissemination of academic research. In the future, the CAFAM will continue to take its collections as a link, build a bridge for dialogue between academia and the public, constantly explore new paths for art research and exhibition practice, and contribute to the inheritance and innovation of art and culture. We look forward to continuing to work hand in hand with all of you to witness more academic achievements and share the brilliant splendor of art and culture together!CAFAM Academic SeriesThe CAFAM Academic Series and the "Exhibition of Collections from the Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum" were launched simultaneously.

: CAFAM Salon Preview | Post-Carbon Future: The Civilization Memory Of Ice And Fire

2025-10-07

The form of energy shapes the hierarchy and rhythm of civilization. The steam engine ignited the Industrial Revolution, reshaping the pulse of cities and rural areas; coal and oil supported globalization and informatization, building industrial networks spanning continents. Today, solar energy is integrated into buildings and urban life in a distributed manner; the energy upgrade from controlled nuclear fusion also heralds the next transformation of civilization. Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev once proposed that the development of civilization can be measured by the total amount of usable energy. Each energy leap not only drives progress in productivity but also rewrites social structures and the form of civilization, while reflecting a civilization's management of entropy—how to guide disordered energy into usable order is the key to a civilization's upgrade.Traces of early civilizations are stored in matter: bubbles, tiny particles, and microorganisms trapped in ice cores record millions of years of Earth's meteorological history. As the Industrial Revolution and information technology develop, the memories preserved in ice sheets will present new geological evidence. Fire, on the other hand, carries another form of civilizational memory: Edison's 'Black Maria'—the film darkroom—where negatives are washed with sunlight, reorganizing energy on nitrate-based film to allow images to flow. As Nadia Bozak writes in 'The Cinematic Footprint': 'Every frame of film is our civilization's mastery over the sun, presented through fossilized solar fire—in the form of carbon—that we have captured, refined, and appropriately utilized.'This event, titled 'Post-Carbon Future: The Civilization Memory of Ice and Fire', focuses on the changes in the civilization level and pace during the energy transition, echoing the future civilization imagination presented by controlled nuclear fusion in the exhibition 'Energy and Civilization — Science & Art · Fusion Future'. The exhibition takes multiple installations as its core, breaking down the boundaries between science and art, transforming nuclear fusion principles into intuitive sensory experiences. At the same time, this event is also the concluding act of the 'Post-Carbon: The Political Economy of Light and Heat' screening and forum series. The 'Post-Carbon' series has been presented in multiple cities including Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, responding to the impact of solar energy and southern heatwaves on landscapes, technology, and visual culture.This forum will screen the film 'In the Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace' and invite Christoph Oeschger, the Swiss artist who created the film, Zheng Jun, a science and cultural writer, and Liu Yongmou, a professor of philosophy at Renmin University, to jointly explore the future society and civilization forms after energy transition from three dimensions: art, science fiction, and philosophy. Event Schedule Time: October 8, 2025 (Wednesday) 14:00--16:00Theme: 'Post-Carbon Future: Civilization's Memory of Ice and Fire' Host: Chen Yu (scholar in design theory, young curator, new media artist, co-curator of 'Post-Carbon') Film Screening: 'In the Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace'; by Swiss artist Christoph Oeschger, 13 minutes 09 secondsGuest Speakers: Zheng Jun (science and culture writer, futurist) Christoph Oeschger (Swiss artist) Liu Yongmou (Wu Yuzhang Chair Professor at Renmin University) Roundtable Guests: Cai Yixuan (curator, Black Void artist, 'Post-Carbon' curator)Scan the QR code to book a spotLimited spots available First come, first served Film Introduction In the Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace，Christoph Oeschger，Switzerland，13’09As Arctic sea ice retreats, previously inaccessible areas are opening up for resource extraction and territorial claims. The Arctic is transforming from a romanticized wilderness into a arena of interests in technology, economics, and geopolitics. The film 'In Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace' presents these transformations from a poetic perspective, revealing what was originally invisible. It is the first outcome of a collaborative research project initiated by writer Gianna Molinari and artist Christoph Oeschger in Greenland. There, they realized that the Arctic also exists elsewhere—in pipelines, microscopes, electronic devices, and maps, flowing through them. Those wildlands that still remain untouched in our imagination have now become stages for global power and economic ambition. Sharing Guest Liu Yongmou Wu Yuzhang Chair Professor at Renmin University of China, Second-Class Professor and Doctoral Supervisor at the School of Philosophy, Researcher at the Institute for Artificial Intelligence Governance and the National Development and Strategy Institute of Renmin University of China, and Visiting Professor at Gansu Province's Feitian Scholar Program.

“冉冉晨城：中央美术学院美术馆藏北京主题作品展”聚焦中国现当代美术史中北京城市形象的艺术叙事，通过系统梳理中央美术学院美术馆所藏的北京题材艺术作品，并邀请多位艺术家展出其精品力作，深入探讨不同历史时期艺术创作与社会语境的互动关系。展览以“晨起”“蓬勃”“更新”“择中”为叙事线索，建构起一个跨越时空的艺术对话场域：一方面呈现不同代际艺术家在都市景观描绘与人文精神诠释中的风格流变；另一方面，则聚焦于当代语境下艺术家对城市主题的持续探索与观念革新。更新第三板块在历史的地层与未来的蓝图交汇之处，在十三世纪古城墙与二十一世纪天际线的相遇之地，我们得以见证一座都城如何持续生长出属于当代的文化年轮。艺术家以视觉的方式，解剖建筑肌理，唤醒文化记忆，揭示古都更新的深层逻辑：不仅是物理空间的重组，更是集体记忆的移植与精神场域的重构。邵声朗，《北京风景之二：西城朝晖》，1961年，65cm×34cm，纸本设色《北京风景》组画以“燕京八景”为题材，构建出具有新中国气息的城市景观。邵声朗以俯瞰视角呈现北京城廓，融合西式焦点透视与水墨皴擦，用屋脊、道路等视觉线条营造空间感，使观者仿佛从高处俯瞰“风景”。光感亦是表现的重点，在《北京风景之二：西城朝晖》中可以识别出沐浴在橘红色的城市是处在清晨的特定时间段。《北京风景》是艺术家邵声朗“立足传统、面向生活”的早期探索，旨在以“新国画”构建新中国山水画的美学范式。戴泽，《东方炼油厂之九》，1976年，27.5cm×39.5cm，纸本水彩《东方炼油厂》组画从多个角度记录了北京西郊的东方红炼油厂的工业场景。戴泽运用水彩的通透性与晕染技法刻画了厂房、传送带、高耸的塔器与交错管道，通过“物”的硬朗质感，以及干笔勾勒管道的粗糙肌理，传达了工业建设的蓬勃，凸显生产规模与秩序，营造出充满活力的时代氛围。此组画源于上世纪70年代石化工业建设的蓬勃发展之时，戴泽多次写生描绘工厂的新景象。不仅体现戴泽“以写生为创作”的理念，更成为一份珍贵的时代视觉文献。王琦，《“大街上的旋律”组画之立体交叉》，1987年，40.2cm×28cm，木版单色此组作品《大街上的旋律》出自中国现代版画先驱王琦之手。他以黑白木刻的技法表现了城市奔向未来的现代气息与活力。在《立体交叉》一作中，以现代桥梁的曲直线条分割画面，画面下方嵌入了1981年北京地铁正式对外运营的中国首条城市轨道交通。此作曾登上大英博物馆馆刊首页，以其独特的艺术语言跨越文化边界，不仅探索了木刻版画的刀法和形式，更呈现了改革开放后中国城市化进程的蓬勃生命力。张桂林，《记忆之五》，2008年，45.5cm×67.5cm，丝网套色《记忆》系列的四件丝网套色版画以鲜明色块的叠印，重现北京地标的历史意象与个人情感。《记忆之五》采用黄蓝撞色，通过留白和简单的线条勾勒形成建筑造型，下部点缀的橙色圆圈好似欢呼与烟花。张桂林通过色彩结构与符号叙事完成其对北京奥运会的视觉叙事。作为中国丝网版画创作的先行者，他以视觉强度记录历史时刻，传递出个人与城市的深刻共鸣。孙景波，《1985年的王府井大街》，1985年，100cm×80cm，布面油彩，艺术家提供戴士和，《白塔寺》，2022年，100cm×150cm，布面油彩，艺术家提供石煜，《冷》，1997年，60cm×73cm，布面油彩王国锋，《理想 No.3（北京站）》，2007年，76cm×142cm，摄影《理想 No.3（北京站）》这件摄影作品以北京火车站为主体，采用高清晰度的全景技术，焦点均匀分布，将建筑的宏大与细节同时保留于同一画面之中。王国锋刻意避开了人的出现，使巨型的建筑物突兀而富有张力地占据画面，充满笔直的线条感。北京站作为1959年为庆祝建国十周年的“十大建筑”之一，是新中国社会主义建筑的典范，承载着特定的集体记忆，展示了新国家通过建筑来塑造国家和民族的新观念、新价值与社会想象的努力。王国锋在《理想》系列中持续聚焦此类建筑，探讨其如何成为国家权力与集体意识的物化载体。缪晓春，《立》，2007年，253cm×444cm，收藏级艺术微喷《立》聚焦于奥运会场地鸟巢和水立方的建设，呈现了工地的忙碌场景，包括起重机、工程车辆、脚手架与集结的工人等，施工中的体育场馆与远处的现代高楼相互映衬。缪晓春通过长时间的记录性拍摄，将建设过程中的诸多图像拼合为一件摄影作品，使施工现场与逐渐成型的奥运场馆共处同一画面，兼具历史维度和对城市图景的未来想象。缪晓春自进入新世纪后便开始关注城市的更新，用相机记录北京新形象的建立过程。展出的摄影《立》是他在此阶段的代表作之一，体现了他“用绘画的方式做照片”的创作理念，拓展了摄影的表现边界。王川，《西山晴雪》，2009年，112x280cm，收藏级艺术微喷张楠卿，《城市·风景2》，2012年，90cm×130cm，收藏级艺术微喷展览现场专题艺术家：马晓腾第三板块马晓腾，1967年生于北京，1993年自中央美术学院油画系毕业并留校任教。90年代开始，他创作“北京”系列，以70至80年代城市景观为载体，通过记忆与图像结合探讨社会景观中的情感细节，以直接朴素笔触呈现中国式体验。2007年起画风趋于个人化，色彩采用纯色平涂，表达自我经验的转变与艺术体验的更新，其作品缓慢与持久的推进尤为突出。晓腾，《春和景明》，2011年，146cm×240cm，布面油彩马晓腾，《雀鹰》，2012年，120cm×300cm，布面丙烯，艺术家提供马晓腾，《校尉胡同5号》，1996年，97cm×72cm，布面油彩，艺术家提供马晓腾藏北京图书，艺术家提供北京文化艺术基金是由北京市文化和旅游局发起设立的公益性基金，重点围绕舞台艺术创作、文化传播交流和艺术人才培养三大领域开展资助。基金面向社会接受申报、资助过程受社会监督、资助成果由社会共享，最大限度调动社会参与文化建设积极性，搭建了一个开放平等、公开透明的艺术资助体系，充分发挥全国文化中心的示范引领作用。北京文化艺术基金2024年度资助项目冉冉晨城——中央美术学院美术馆藏北京主题作品展展览时间：2025年9月18日-10月19日展览地点：中央美术学院美术馆3层A展厅、4层展厅主办：中央美术学院协办：中央美术学院美术馆支持：中央美术学院科研处主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠

: 国歌从这里诞生——《义勇军进行曲》诞生背后的故事

2025-10-03

“雄歌一曲献中华——许幸之艺术成就回顾展”展览现场我们的国歌《义勇军进行曲》是怎样诞生的？这首曾经引导中国人民战胜日本侵略者，推翻三座大山反动统治的战歌，有着怎样的背后故事？这也是许多现代的年轻人非常关心的一段历史。1935年5月24日，故事片《风云儿女》在上海金城大戏院上演，一曲激昂雄壮的战歌表达了中国人民不甘做亡国奴、坚决反抗日本侵略者的心声，这就是我们今天的国歌《义勇军进行曲》，而这部电影的导演正是艺术家许幸之。1933年3月，中共地下组织成立了以夏衍为首的“电影小组”，成为领导电影界进步力量的核心。1934年初秋，上海电影界的左翼人士商议拍摄一部反映抗日救亡题材的故事片。不久，由著名剧作家田汉写出了一万多字的《风云儿女》的文学原著，并且由夏衍亲自改编为电影文学剧本。1934年11月，许幸之和吴印咸在上海联合举办绘画、摄影作品展，夏衍在观看展览后邀请他们一起“跳槽”到党领导下的电通影片公司，并接受《风云儿女》的拍摄任务。1935年2月，田汉被捕，他在狱中用香烟盒包装纸的背面写了一段歌词并托人带出监狱，这就是《义勇军进行曲》的原始手稿。许幸之在拍摄电影的同时，与聂耳一起探讨歌曲的作曲问题，两人反复推敲歌曲的首尾部分，并将最终版本的结尾定为“我们万众一心，冒着敌人的炮火前进！前进！前进！进！”。由于增加了叠句，在三个“前进”之后，又以一个“进”字作为铿锵有力的休止符来煞尾，把坚决、勇敢、跨着轻快步伐挺身前进的情绪，表现得更加明快、强烈。1937年7月“卢沟桥事变”后，《义勇军进行曲》成为激励抗日军民的雄伟战歌。20世纪40年代初，美国著名黑人歌唱家保罗·罗伯逊为声援中国人民的抗日斗争，在音乐会上用中、英文演唱了《义勇军进行曲》。1949年9月《义勇军进行曲》被确定为中华人民共和国代国歌，1982年12月正式成为国歌。2004年3月，十届全国人大二次会议通过宪法修正案，将“中华人民共和国国歌是《义勇军进行曲》”写入宪法，赋予其宪法地位。每当亿万中华儿女放声高唱这雄壮、激昂的战歌时，我们胸中的热血就在沸腾，我们在民族复兴的伟大征程上迈出的步伐，就更加坚定有力。许国庆1935年许幸之导演的抗日救亡故事片《风云儿女》初次上映之后，直到20世纪80年代初期，才又在全国重新上映。图为20世纪80年代复映时的海报1935年１月，许幸之在上海电通影片公司，导演了中国最早的抗日题材故事片《风云儿女》，其电影主题歌为《义勇军进行曲》，现在已经成为中华人民共和国国歌1935年2月，许幸之导演电影《风云儿女》现场照片，金石声摄影1935年4月，许幸之（左一）和吴印咸（左二）等人在上海郊区某地拍摄电影《风云儿女》外景1935年3月，聂耳为电影《风云儿女》的主题歌《义勇军进行曲》谱曲，这是他7月从日本寄回国内的最后定稿1935年上海百代唱片公司出品的《义勇军进行曲》原版唱片，只有聂耳作曲的署名，由袁牧之、顾梦鹤等七名男演员演唱1935年5月24日，抗日救亡电影《风云儿女》在上海公映，电影主题歌《义勇军进行曲》很快成为全中国人民反抗日本侵略的战歌。图为该片剧照电影《风云儿女》宣传图片，诗人辛白华（袁牧之饰）到歌舞班子化妆间看望好友阿凤（王人美饰），吴印咸摄影电影《风云儿女》宣传页，刊载于《电通》1935年第2期许幸之的电影艺术许幸之踏入电影界，原本只是偶然。1934年末，他与吴印咸合办“绘画、摄影联展”引起文化界瞩目，夏衍看展后亲自约谈，邀他参与筹拍《风云儿女》，自此开启了他在电影创作一线的旅程。这位本为美术家的多面手，既有诗人的气质与对造型的敏锐，又怀有坚定的左翼革命意识和深刻的历史责任感。他始终关注艺术与社会、技术与思想的结合，尤善以多种媒介表达时代精神。《风云儿女》中，他参与撰稿、画分镜、设场面，更让影片中的主题歌《义勇军进行曲》世人皆知并响彻寰宇，为左翼电影留下标志性成果。其后，他又拍摄抗战纪录片《中国万岁》、军事题材故事片《海上风暴》，以影像之力鼓舞民族斗志。许幸之创作了大量电影理论著作，代表了民国末年中国电影理论研究的较高水平。同时，他也是中国科教电影的开创者，一代革命艺术家的风范与深度，由此可见一斑。许幸之一生以绘画为本，电影只是其中短暂却深刻的一章。尽管作品不多，他作为创作者、理论家与教育者所留下的贡献，至今不应被遗忘。——钟大丰北京电影学院教授1935年9月28日，许幸之（左上角）与电通公司同事在海军新军舰《平海号》下水仪式上拍摄纪录片1950年春，许幸之赴北京，出任中央电影局电影艺术委员会编导。1951年他导演了新中国最早的军事题材故事片之一《海上风暴》，图为该片海报1951年中央电影局正式印行的许幸之导演的电影《海上风暴》分镜头完成剧本封面1951年许幸之导演的电影《海上风暴》上映时，电影院的说明书1951年许幸之导演的电影《海上风暴》上映时，电影院的说明书《电影编剧法》手稿，许幸之《电影导演论》手稿，许幸之《电影概论》手稿，许幸之许幸之将镜头化为时代之眼，记录了民族的集体记忆。1935年执导的《风云儿女》,以平实的影像风格唤醒了最为震慑人心的激昂斗志，由田汉作词、聂耳谱曲的影片主题曲《义勇军进行曲》更是迸发出惊雷般的力量，日后成为中华人民共和国的国歌。这部左翼电影运动里程碑式的作品，不仅奠定了中国现实主义电影的美学范式，更将艺术的政治表达提升到民族精神的维度。期待观众与我们一起走进许幸之的艺术世界。百年辉煌·中央美术学院艺术名家雄歌一曲献中华——许幸之艺术成就回顾展展览时间：2025年9月18日—10月19日展览地点：中央美术学院美术馆3层B展厅主办单位：中国美术家协会中央美术学院承办单位：中央美术学院党委宣传部中央美术学院校史研究中心中央美术学院美术馆中央美术学院人文学院中央美术学院油画系支持单位：中国人民抗日战争纪念馆中国电影家协会中国电影博物馆主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠

: Come to CAFA During The National Day Holiday To "Grow the Sun" and "Watch the Aurora"! (Performance Schedule Included)

2025-10-03

The Exhibition Site of "Energy and Civilization: Science & Art·Future Fusion"This autumn, science and art quietly meet at the art museum. Step into the first-floor hall of the CAFA Art Museum, and don’t forget to look up – a "sun" is shining brightly above, waiting to meet your gaze."Artificial Sun" InstallationThis is exactly the Artificial Sun installation. It uses optical fiber equipment outside the building to channel outdoor sunlight into the art museum through 60 high-purity optical fibers. Then, through concentrated light projection, it creates a 5-meter-diameter "artificial sun". The light transmission efficiency of this large-scale installation is as high as 95%.When the sun shines intensely, you will see a "little sun" with clear boundaries and high brightness. When clouds obscure the sunlight, the "hanging sun" inside the art museum becomes soft and hazy, like a warm halo.This not only restores the energy form of sunlight but also echoes the seawater scene in the exhibition hall, helping audiences intuitively understand the enormous potential of nuclear fusion energy, jointly creating a poetic and even somewhat mysterious artistic atmosphere.And not far from this "sun", another magical cosmic scene is unfolding...Aurora Simulation Installation "USTC Aurora-1"The aurora simulation installation "USTC Aurora-1" is China's first laboratory device for simulating auroras on the ground. It utilizes high-voltage plasma discharge to generate high-energy particles, and ingeniously uses spherical magnets as discharge electrodes while simulating the magnetic field on the surface of planets, thereby creating a variety of changing aurora phenomena.The principle of aurora generation on Earth is that the geomagnetic field traps high-energy charged particles from the magnetosphere and solar wind. Subsequently, these charged particles collide and ionize with gas molecules in the atmosphere, ultimately producing auroras. The different colors of auroras are related to the components in the gas; for example, the ionization of nitrogen in the air produces a pink color, while the ionization of oxygen produces a greenish light.This installation reproduces the entire process of aurora generation, which is equivalent to "moving" the phenomenon that occurs in the natural space into the installation. On this basis, the installation also uses transparent quartz glass to make the vacuum chamber, which enhances the presentation effect of the brilliant auroras generated by the discharge.To ensure that every audience member can have the best viewing experience, "USTC Aurora-1" – China's first ground-based aurora simulation installation – will conduct demonstrations at scheduled intervals. Please arrange your schedule properly and be sure to refer to the following performance schedule when coming to watch:We look forward to your arrival, and hope you will gain your own autumn adventure in the collision of art and science at "Energy and Civilization – Science & Art·Fusion Future"!

2025-09-29

“冉冉晨城——中央美术学院美术馆藏北京主题作品展”聚焦中国现当代美术史中北京城市形象的艺术叙事，通过系统梳理中央美术学院美术馆所藏的北京题材艺术作品，并邀请多位艺术家展出其精品力作，深入探讨不同历史时期艺术创作与社会语境的互动关系。"Rising Morning City – Exhibition of Beijing-Themed Works from the CAFA Art Museum Collection"This exhibition focuses on the artistic narrative of Beijing's urban image in the history of modern and contemporary Chinese art. By systematically sorting through Beijing-themed artworks in the collection of the CAFA Art Museum (Central Academy of Fine Arts Art Museum) and inviting a number of artists to exhibit their fine and representative works, it conducts an in-depth exploration of the interactive relationship between artistic creation and social context across different historical periods.展览以“晨起”“蓬勃”“更新”“择中”为叙事线索，建构起一个跨越时空的艺术对话场域：一方面呈现不同代际艺术家在都市景观描绘与人文精神诠释中的风格流变；另一方面，则聚焦于当代语境下艺术家对城市主题的持续探索与观念革新。晨起 | 第一板块晨光如椽笔，在北京城市肌理上晕染出历史与当下的褶皱。艺术家们对晨光时刻的多元截取，建构起一幅动态的都市人文图鉴。既有唤醒城市苏醒的劳动者身影，也有主干道上流动的现代性交响；既捕捉到早市升腾的烟火气息，也定格了通勤潮涌的都市节律。这些作品以视觉诗学的方式诠释着：晨光不仅是昼夜交替的物理时刻，更是城市生命力的美学表征。李秀实，《晨》，1961年，101cm×301cm，布面油彩《晨》以超宽视角定格天安门广场的清晨。浅蓝色天空下，晨光晕染着人民英雄纪念碑，冷暖色调交织出诗意质感，近景中的自行车队伍形成动感的人物群像。这件作品是李秀实的毕业创作，为了完成这件作品，画家数十次在晨间赴广场写生，观察色彩的变化，并通过素描记录人物和建筑；回到画室，再把单个人物和建筑的素描稿剪下，尝试各种组合来推敲构图。他将劳动者的朝气与纪念碑的肃穆联结，隐喻新中国逆境奋进的时代精神，成为第三代油画家探索民族化语言的重要代表作。刘金贵，《清洁工》，1984年，173cm×230cm，纸本设色《清洁工》以淡雅圆润的工笔设色，描绘北京环卫工人劳作的群像，她们身着厚重工装，肩扛扫帚、手拉板车或骑清洁车的队伍穿行街巷，防风巾的鲜艳点缀与人物动态形成自然之美，虚化的行人电车烘托城市初醒的忙碌，刻录了改革开放初期的城市变迁。这件作品是刘金贵在青年时期的毕业创作，获得了叶浅予评价：“很淡，很好。……这就是抓住了生活。”作品突破工笔写实传统，融合民间艺术明快特质与文人画的“逸体”风格，同时将主观感受付诸笔墨，表现了生活的真善与真美。谢岩，《清晨紫禁城》，1997年，185cm×205cm，布面油彩王一，《新站》，2010年，175cm×200cm，布面油彩蓬勃第二板块北京镌刻着新中国历史的记忆，也勾勒出现代社会的蓬勃图景。不同代际艺术家对城市生活的关注，呈现了不同年代城市生态的多元剖面。这些作品将“蓬勃”解构为持续生长的有机体：在个体叙事与集体记忆的交织中，在物质空间与精神图景的共振里，艺术创作最终成为丈量城市文明进程的另一种维度标尺。宋步云，《欢庆解放》，1949年，81cm×100cm，布面油彩《欢庆解放》创作于北平和平解放之际，是艺术家宋步云见证时代巨变的重要作品。作品洋溢着共和国早晨的朝气，透射出画家发自内心的欢欣愉悦，也体现了知识分子坦然真诚的情怀。画面以明亮的色调和由近及远的视角，描绘了人民群众挥舞着红旗，欢庆解放的沸腾场面，既还原了激动人心的历史时刻，又展现新旧时代交替的社会氛围与人民心声。高帆，《参加庆祝活动的北平民众在天安门华表下》，1949年，60.96cm×50.8cm，明胶银盐照片史希光，《入少先队》，1964年，78cm×104.5cm，纸本设色李印清，《机车组上岗》，1960年代，120.5×100cm，布面油彩喻红，《川》，1988年，130×140cm，布面油彩《川》描绘了一群迎风行走的都市青年，中央的女性形象被视为艺术家的自我写照。作品采用了鲜明的色调和略作变形的人物造型，通过模糊的边界来削弱传统写实的明晰感，结合动态构图、粗粝的刮刀肌理，以及巧妙安排的人物位置与姿态，使得画面呈现强烈的流动感与节奏感。此件油画是喻红于1988年创作的本科毕业作品。20世纪80年代中后期是中国当代艺术的重要转折阶段。作为中国新生代艺术家的代表，喻红敏锐地捕捉到社会转型中青年人的情绪和面貌，使《川》成为80年代都市文化变迁的视觉见证。王浩，《电话亭》，1987，30cm×36cm，木板丙烯《电话亭》中的公共电话与行驶的电车及地面积雪共同营造出冬日的质感。此组作品是艺术家王浩的本科毕业创作中的一件，为其本人撰写的城市科幻小说所绘的插图，画面中的北京街景呈现出如照相般的冷峻实感。作为“新生代”艺术群体的代表之一，王浩的“照相写实主义”以近距离且冷静的视角，反映了自身及周围思想情感的变化，不依赖宏大叙事，于平静客观中探索近距离艺术的新可能，并追求艺术语言的纯化。韦蓉，《麦当劳》，1997年，37.1×45.4cm，纸上水彩，家属提供瞿广慈，《王府井》，1994年，40cm×35cm×118cm、50cm×65cm×116cm、50cm×43cm×106cm，玻璃钢着色广军，《街头巷尾》，2007年，79×55cm，木版单色黄银宇，《接单》，2021年，160cm×140cm，布面油彩专题艺术家：翁乃强第二板块翁乃强出生于印尼一个华侨家庭，1951年翁乃强带着父亲的期许追随两个哥哥的脚步踏上了归国之旅，先后就读于育英中学、中央美术学院附属中学、中央美术学院。1964年进入《人民中国》杂志社从事美术摄影报道，历时26年。1990年调任中央美院筹建摄影工作室。翁乃强是新中国成立初期培养起来的艺术家，是中央美术学院摄影专业的奠基人。翁乃强，《1976年10年24日，北京市民庆祝打倒“四人帮”胜利，一直游行到深夜》，2013年（1976年底片），68cm×64.4cm，数字喷墨打印照片我在北京住了很多年，我家原来就在王府井附近的校尉胡同。当时，大家表达思想和爱国情绪的场所主要是天安门，所以我就在那儿一蹲，就能拍摄到各种各样有趣的事。一有什么事，我就背着相机跑到天安门广场去。……我学画画学了9年，搞创作、搞构图，受到好多老师的影响，看了很多画展，翻了很多国外的画册。这些都会有潜移默化的影响——怎么表现，什么美、怎么美，可能不知不觉在拍照的时候，在取景器里面觉得这样拍好看。我感觉到有一个东西很重要——形式跟内容的问题。实际上毛主席已经讲得很清楚，你这个内容好，可是没有好的形式就不会很感人，作品要有表现力。艺术形式跟内容的关系，当然不是为了形式而去搞内容，脱离内容的形式是空的。我们看很多绘画作品和摄影作品，受到这方面的教育比较多，有好处。人家说，翁乃强你拍的照片怎么像油画？我也没有特意地做什么，就是拍照，怎么表现更美、更好、更强烈，就怎么去表现。——翁乃强，摘自《彩色的中国：跨越30年的影像历史》翁乃强，《北京东长安街的大字报与卖小报的盛况》，2013年（1966年底片），68×67.9cm，数字喷墨打印照片翁乃强，《北京西单路口拍摄的从塞外草原赶往大红门的羊》，2013年（1977年底片），76.2×48.4cm，数字喷墨打印照片翁乃强，《中央美院雕塑家们为毛主席纪念堂前的群雕创作场面》，2013年（1976年底片），68×53cm，数字喷墨打印照片关于北京文化艺术基金北京文化艺术基金是由北京市文化和旅游局发起设立的公益性基金，重点围绕舞台艺术创作、文化传播交流和艺术人才培养三大领域开展资助。基金面向社会接受申报、资助过程受社会监督、资助成果由社会共享，最大限度调动社会参与文化建设积极性，搭建了一个开放平等、公开透明的艺术资助体系，充分发挥全国文化中心的示范引领作用。北京文化艺术基金2024年度资助项目冉冉晨城——中央美术学院美术馆藏北京主题作品展展览时间：2025年9月18日-10月19日展览地点：中央美术学院美术馆3层A展厅、4层展厅
