追憶的心象 - 江漢東版畫個展

展期 | 2021.02.06-03.20
地點 | 阿波羅畫廊

1905年「橋派 Die Brücke」成立於德國德列斯登，其中兩位代表畫家赫克爾E. Heckel及克爾希納E. L. Kirchner以風格獨特的木雕版畫作品，為德國表現主義奠定基礎。1956年江漢東與秦松、李錫奇等在台北成立了「現代版畫會」，帶動版畫創作新思維，並深入於媒材的實驗和造型的研究。在文化素養甚為缺乏的時代，堅持自我的繪畫信念及創造表現，樹立了個人獨特的風格。

江漢東的作品曾入選巴西聖保羅國際版畫雙年展、美國舊金山國際版畫展等國際指標性版畫大展。1983年10月阿波羅畫廊首次舉辦江漢東個展。1992年由阿波羅畫廊主辦，文建會(現為文化部)贊助，於奧地利國家人文博物館舉行「江漢東畫展」。開幕當天400多位嘉賓對於他的作品莫不投以驚奇的眼光，也對臺灣現代藝術有更近一步的認識。

李仲生曾形容江漢東的創作如「追憶的心象」，不僅色彩繽紛且充滿著童趣，並結合超現實的表現。因此，阿波羅畫廊將此次的展覽命名為「追憶的心象」，並精選了二十幅60-80年代間的木刻版畫作品展出。誠摯邀請您前來觀賞!


Remembrances of the Mind – Chiang, Han-Tung Wood-Cut Solo Exhibition

In 1905, “Die Brücke”(The Bridge), a group of expressionist artists, was formed in Dresden, Germany. Two of the founding members, E. Heckel and E.L. Kirchner, would lay the foundation for expressionism with their wood cut works. In 1956, Jiang Han-Tung, Song Qin, Lee Shi-Chi, amongst other artists, established the Modern Printmaking Association in Taiwan. In doing so, they led the way for experimentation and studies in the medium. In a period when cultural literacy was still lacking in the region, Jiang succeeded in insisting on and establishing his own distinctive styles and methods of expression.

Jiang’s works have been selected for notable exhibitions internationally, including the São Paulo Biennial and the San Francisco International Printmaking Exhibition. In 1983, Jiang held his first solo exhibition with Apollo Art Gallery. He again collaborated with Apollo Art Gallery in 1992 when the gallery organised an exhibition for his works, sponsored by the Taiwan Ministry of Culture, at the Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien. More than 400 guests attended the opening of the exhibition, where they were delighted by Jiang’s works and simultaneously gaining a closer understanding of Taiwanese modern art.

Artist Li Zhong-Sheng once used “remembrances of the mind” to describe Jiang’s works, pointing out the abundances of colour and elements of innocence in his works that combine to illustrate a sense of surrealism. As such, Apollo Art Gallery has decided to name this exhibition “Remembrances of the Mind” and will feature 20 of Jiang’s wood-cut works from the 1960s to 1980s. We would like to sincerely welcome you to visit the exhibition!
