21世纪挟着全球化、地球村及零距离传媒的优势来到人间。但911的惊爆让世人体会到这新世纪仍然是黑暗与光明参半,天堂与地狱并存的世界,而“爱、宽容、和谐、和平”乃凸显成为新时代的共识。联合国早认识到问题的严重及症结所在,并早在1995年会员大会宣布每年11月16日为“国际宽容日”,并透过《联合国之友》颁发“全球宽容奖”。2001年此奖颁给了留法旅美华裔画家陈锦芳博士以表扬他“多元文化的艺术创作,以及一生奉献于和平宽容及爱的工作,和创造了一大批表现人类共同愿望的作品”,并任命他为“宽容及和平文化大使”以推动“促进宽容与和平的全球艺术活动”。所以有了于2006年启动的陈锦芳“为人类而艺术世界巡回展”,而今年巡回到中国。欣逢奥运来临北京,乃于6月至8月间先后及同时在北京,中华世纪坛世界艺术馆,桥艺术中心,尚元素艺术馆及北京798创意广场举行大规模个展,因为陈博士是世界上唯一以奥运系列为艺术表现的画家。因此赢得各界重视,尤其是媒体大量报道如中央电视台等。
新书 “陈锦芳博士的艺术与奥运:为人类而艺术”共300页包含了极其丰富的历史性及文化性价值,9月间将在上海朱屺瞻艺术馆与陈锦芳的艺术与奥运创作共同展出。虽然陈博士在世界上已举办过200多个个展,但在上海却是首次。所以我们特别选择在上海双年展及2个大型国际展览期间举办此次展览。我们期待展览在上海朱屺瞻艺术展出期间能与上海及世界各地艺术界有个交流机会。
展览的展出内容除原有的“为人类而艺术”的关怀主题,如:战争与和平、贫与富、东方与西方、环保、教育与文化、爱、世界文化外尚有以中国为主题的“天坛系列”及“奥运系列”部分作品。尤其奥运除激励运动员及全民身、心、灵共进,追求卓越,超越极限外;同时建立友谊、公开、公正、公平的竞争以共创和平及更美好的世界,这种奥林匹克精神正是“为人类而运动”的体现,与“为人类而艺术”相契合,也正是“人文奥运“的提倡,实殊途同归而值得共襄盛举。
陈博士的“天坛系列”,除彰显“和平崛起”外更努力表现中华文化传统美德之“王道”精神,它不仅是奥运所传承之古希腊“神圣休战”的消极和平,且是人类和谐,世界和平,天下一家,共荣共享的积极和平之缔造的基石。这心态及追求也正是整合古今中外的“文化形象”即意象(icon),(它有别于“自然形象”)正是艺以载道的陈博士的“新意象派(Neo-Iconogrgphy)”能被选为世界巡回展的缘由。展览期间将随时播映将“禁烟”与艺术欣赏整合呈现的DVD影片:“梵高禁烟的故事”(30分钟)及《联合国之友》总裁Dr.Brown专访陈博士的精华摘录(18分钟),以透过艺术探讨新世纪之人类共识:“爱、宽容、和谐、和平”之种种面向及实践。展出期间正值上海艺术盛季,是交流,观摩,互相勉励的最好时刻。上海的艺术活动已国际化,相信朱屺瞻艺术馆所提供的国际艺术平台能发挥更大的作用以促进上海及中国的艺术活动更上一层楼。



Dr. T.F. Chen’s “Art for Humanity World Tour 2005-2010”
Exhibits at the Zhu Qizhan Art Museum, Shanghai


Dr. Chen’s “Art for Humanity World Tour” welcomes visitors at the Zhu Qizhan Art Museum from Sept 6 – 14, 2008.

In this new century, humanity becomes more and more, a tightly-knit Global Village. Along with the globalization, "love, tolerance, and peace" emerge as shared concerns for all in this new age. In 2001, the Friends of the United Nations honored Dr. Chen with a Global Tolerance Award and designated him a "Cultural Ambassador for Tolerance and Peace", to honor his "art of multiculturalism and a lifetime of work dedicated to peace, tolerance and love and for creating a body of work expressing a shared vision of humanity." With their blessing, Dr. Chen initiated the “Art for Humanity World Tour” and this year has brought the Tour to China.

After four grand solo museum exhibitions in Beijing, Dr. Chen has now brought this exciting exhibition to Shanghai.From June to August,Dr.Chen held four grand solo museum exhibitions in Beijing at 1) World Museum at the Chinese Millennium Monument, 2) Bridge Art Center, 3) Elements Museum of Contemporary Art, and at 4) 798 Originality Square. As for Shanghai, Dr. Chen will exhibit at the Zhu Qizhau Museum from Sep.6—Sep.14.

The contents of the exhibition is composed of three parts: Dr. Chen’s “Salute to the Beijing Olympic Series,” "Humanism Series," and “Temple of Heaven Series.” Dr. Chen’s "Salute to the Beijing Olympic Series" is a powerful tribute of 66 paintings, which creatively illustrates the origins and development of the Olympic Games and celebrates its upcoming hosting in Beijing. His “Humanism Series” concerns themes such as the rich and the poor, East and West, environmental protection, education and culture, etc. Dr. Chen's "Temple of Heaven Series" manifests China's "peaceful arising," and expresses the Chinese traditional cultural value of "wang-dao" -- which emphasizes the concept of kingly benevolence, or "reigning by virtue."

This historical celebration and artistic expression are the elements of Dr. T.F. Chen’s signature “Neo-Iconography” style which he initiated in 1969, which is a daring new form of communication that unites Orient and Occident, past and present, by organizing and combining familiar "icons" in meaningful ways.

Dr. Chen has conducted more than 200 solo exhibitions worldwide, and has published over 28 books. Dr. Chen's works are featured in over 300 textbooks, such as the world art history textbook Arts & Ideas; and are collected widely ,privately and publicly.
