袁运生是20世纪中国画坛的一个传奇,从天才学生到蜚声海内外的著名艺术家,从旅居海外到归国投身中国传统造型研究,作为中央美术学院培养的优秀艺术家,他的才情被许多人欣赏,总能够引起画坛的关注。更为可贵的是,他的艺术又总是不拘泥于一种形式,而有着不断否定、不断开拓的顽强生命力。张仃曾言“袁运生是个真诚的艺术家。从青年时代起他个人的命运便十分坎坷,但他却总是关心人类的命运。”

本次展览的主题“纵浪大化”来自于陶渊明的千古名句“纵浪大化中,不喜亦不惧。应尽便须尽,无复独多虑。”,也来自于袁运生2011年创作的生平最大幅壁画《纵浪大化》,这幅作品也是本次展览最具分量的核心作品。“纵浪大化”就是袁运生先生人生态度的一种写照,袁运生“痴情”于艺术,奋斗于艺术之海,自青年时代就有着自己的坚定理想和信念,不论争议与否,都很难动摇他的决心。

这是一种什么样理想?这是一个什么样的艺术家?策展人希望用作品、文献和自述文字,在展览中为观众解答这一问题。
本次展览的主线是袁运生一生创作历程中最为核心的命题——壁画梦。这是他在中央美术学院读书期间树立的梦想。导师董希文推崇敦煌,钟情于壁画,曾言“一笔负千年重任”。在他们心中,壁画不简单是一个画种,也不简单是个人的梦,而在于壁画有能力唤醒中国传统文化中所积累的巨大财富,是一种能够引导中国文化复兴并立于世界艺术之林的方式。“中国传统文化,它在各个历史时期的重要文化遗存,对我来说,是无尽的宝藏,是艺术精神和语言的源头活水。它也许是来自中国人的生命理想和思维方式。”年轻的袁运生在导师的影响下开始了自己的“壁画之梦”,他直面历史的机遇与挫折,真诚地追寻自己的理想。而这梦一晃就是60余年。
