方力鈞， 中國 「后89新藝術潮流」先鋒。自1990年代初，方力鈞以其標志性的「光頭」形象，開創了中國當代藝術的「潑皮文化」與「玩世現實主義」（栗憲庭，1991）。方力鈞自創作以來，一直以「像野狗一樣生活」自醒自寓?！溉?amp;像」作為其創作的核心題材，解構性地編織了時代面孔與大眾臉譜之間的交流與交融，超驗性地傳達出時代與生命的痛感與通感。

本次展覽以「人&像」這一研究方力鈞既經典又全新的視角為主脈絡，圍繞「內觀——自畫像」、「對照——朋友們」、「塵光——眾生相」三個主結構單元，盡力呈現方力鈞的創造歷程， 尤其是近十年來，他在諸多媒介領域甚至NFT虛擬空間的新實驗、新動向 。從主單元結構出發，「通道」、「圖像」、「出版」三個部分，為澳門方力鈞首展呈現以時間線索展開 的「人&像」側影。本展覽邀請每一位觀眾，通過方力鈞的「人& 像」，觸摸當代國人的脈輪，感受到自己心靈深處的聲音。

A pioneer of China’s “Post-1989 New Art Movement”, Fang Lijun’s iconic ‘bald-headed’ figures have pioneered the “Rascal Culture” and “Cynical Realism” (Li Xianting, 1991) in Chinese contemporary art since the early 1990s. Since the beginning of his artistic career, Fang Lijun has constantly been identifying himself with “living like a wild dog”. As one of the key motifs of his art, Fang Lijun’s “Human & Figures” works deconstruct the interplay and mixture between the typical portraits and stereotypical faces of an era, capture the shared pains and feelings of the present time and life in a transcendental manner.

Using “Human & Figures” as a narrative clue, this exhibition aims to provide a classic yet fresh perspective on Fang Lijun. We have chosen to present three main sections: “Introspection: Self-Portraits”, “Mutual Reflections: Friends”, and “The Light of Dust: Human”, which strive to showcase the creative journey that the artist has taken, with a particular focus on his new experiments with a variety of media that range from traditional Chinese painting, oil painting, print, and sculpture to the virtual space of NFT during the last decade. Besides these sections, the curatorial team also attempt to elaborate on the theme of “Human & Figures” in this first solo exhibition of Fang Lijun in Macao with a temporal clue through three additional displays of “Passage”, “Video”, and “Publications”. All viewers, both online and offline, are invited to take a glimpse, through Fang Lijun’s works, into the zeitgeist of contemporary China and lend a listening ear to our own internal voices.
