Cecilia Felici这次在中国展出的作品突出展现了 “中国缘”(通过朋友建立了与中国的缘分)对艺术家的影响,中国对西方来说,直到几年前还显得遥远而难以接近,可是在上世纪的六七十年代的意大利“铅华时代” (当时在意大利轰轰烈烈的学潮运动中,在政治宣传中中国曾经是很多意大利年轻人的革命偶像)中,中国曾经是那样的“近”,如今又因为不可思议的经济和文化交流而让人触手可及。这种情形可以让我们进行对比,让人们更好地了解两国的现实情况,找出其中非凡的共同之处。
These works Cecilia Felici presents in China highlight the influence that the occasion has had to the artist. China, until recently far away and inaccessible to the West, "close" as a propaganda slogan in our problematic and hard "years of lead", is now "at hand" for economic and cultural exchanges that were unthinkable just some years ago. This leads us to make comparisons, to learn more about our two companies and tracking the extraordinary similarities.
Cecilia Felici的作品,如同视觉诗歌一般参与我们的新先锋派体验,并从某种程度上与中国画淡雅的色彩相呼应,画面上的汉字又恰恰展现了这种文字的特点---文字与图画的组合。这一点同样也是意大利上世纪六七十年代新先锋派的基础,也同样出现在Cecilia Felici的作品中,正如我们的拉丁文化先祖所言:“诗歌如画一般”,他们也留下了许多典范。
The works of Cecilia Felici, based on experience of our new avant-garde such as visual poetry, marry perfectly with the taste for the clarity of the colors of Chinese painting and writing, and with the ideograms that represent precisely the link between writing and imageThis is the cornerstone of the new avant-garde Italian Sixties and Seventies that can be found in the works of Cecilia Felici. "Like painting, poetry," said already our ancient Romans, who have left a lot of evidence for this assertion specimens.
而在这位艺术家的作品上,文字,图形合为一体,组成富有诗意的画作,而色彩又成为解读这些作品的关键所在。
The graphic then merges the iconic sign to create a single text, visual and poetic at the same time, especially taking shape in color, one of the most identifiable figures of the artist.
总之色彩是这位艺术家在她生活的海滨小城Sperlonga举办的个人画展的主题,其作品中的色彩睿智地“联合”在一起,而不是拼凑。这些作品中用以描绘海洋的棕红色、天空的蓝色和不同寻常的黄色,都让人联想到类似高更作品风格的超现实色彩。
Colour, then: the colors, rather, already players in the exhibition held in Sperlonga, the seaside town where the artist lives. The colors "united" not dissonant, but cleverly combined. Colors of a type of gaughenian surrealism, distorting the reality of a sea salmon pink or a sky not only trivialy blue , but yellow, as in some summer sunsets.
“为中国的作品” 中,中国的风景微妙而带有梦幻般的色彩,空幻般的树木向空中释放淡雅的紫色,而在“汉字”中,如前所述,借助这种将文字和图形(包括意大利的和中国的)完美结合为一体的符号背景,融合报纸和屏幕上常见的著名接吻图片,传达出和平、友爱和胜利的乐观信息。
In the “Opere per la Cina” the Chinese landscape is seen gently and with invention of color, as in a dream: small trees from aerial roots floating in space delicately colored in purple. In "Ideograms", which marks the highest point of conjunction, as we have said, between writing and painting, as both Italian and Chinese, the background is complicated instead from collages with pieces of paper and photos illustrating the famous kisses of our screen in a optimistical palingenesis that calls for peace, love and victory.
中意两国之间的接触在“中国简报”中变得更加密切,其中有关中国的最新消息、新闻标题用混合技术组合在一起,形成一种由急迫感、旋转的速度产生的视觉源。这一切的视觉感受不仅有趣,越接近作品就越能看清一些细节:如在中国很知名的Armani广告,红色政权的政治标题,风水,走秀的中国模特,兵马俑以及上海的未来派都市风景。
The contacts between the two countries become even closer in “Abstract China”, where the latest news, photos, titles for China are crowded with mixed media and create an urgency, a rotational speed, thus generating an Optical source illusion. But not only visual aspect of everything is interesting: more closer to the work, you can identify the Armani advertising, well known in China, the political articles on New Power Red, Feng Shui, Chinese models on the catwalk, the soldiers clay until the futuristic sky-line in Shanghai.
在用深色皮绳和浅色棉线制成的“阴阳鱼”中,一群鱼组成了一个经典的球形图案,在渔民们的眼中是“打渔的大好时机”,而在作品中却演变成了阴阳组合的和谐图案,代表着爱情。在这幅作品中同样能够看到三维球体所展现的圆形运动。
In the “Pesciolini yng yang”, made with a string of dark leather and a white cotton, in middle of the sea a school of fish takes the classic spherical form called by the fishermen "the mangianza", fierce and dramatic moment of life at sea that here, instead, generate the design of harmony, masculine and feminine union, love. Even in this case, the optical illusion shows the movement in the circularity of this three-dimensional sphere.
超现实主义“找到对象(Objets trouves)”典型的偶然性,海滨找到的木片,玻璃等等,与这位艺术家精确的规划和对色彩、对政治的敏感组合在一起,必将在将来有更大的发展空间。
The randomness of “objets trouvés” typical of Surrealism, the sticks found on the beach, glass, joins the project and the precise color sensibility and political interest of this artist whose work announces further developments.
