: Art for Life--Exhibition of Artworks by Members of the Central Academy of Fine Arts Branch of the China Democratic League Debuts

2025-12-18

In 2025, the Branch of the Central Academy of Fine Arts of the China Democratic League will celebrate the 75th anniversary of its founding. Under the great attention and guidance of the Party Committee of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, with a sincere heart of respecting history and paying tribute to our predecessors, we will hold the "Art for Life – Exhibition of Artworks by Members of the China Democratic League at CAFA and Commemoration of the 75th Anniversary of the Founding of the Branch of the Central Academy of Fine Arts of the China Democratic League".The exhibition brings together the fine masterpieces of 24 participating artists, covering diverse artistic forms such as painting, sculpture, architecture, video, design, and books, constructing an artistic scroll that spans time and space. Among the exhibits, there are classic works by senior art masters of the China Democratic League such as Wu Zuoren, Liu Kaiqu, Li Hua, and Dai Ze, which embody profound explorations into the essence of art. There are also elaborate works by retired members like Jiang Caiping, Zhai Xinjian, Li Yang, and Xu Ping, continuing the artistic pursuit that is passed down from generation to generation. Additionally, there are innovative practices by young and middle-aged teachers, demonstrating the sense of responsibility and commitment of the China Democratic League members in the new era.Wu Zuoren, Camel, 1960, ink and color on paper, 87×46cmCollection of CAFAMLi Hua, Unity is Strength, 1947, Monochrome Woodcut, 23×17.4cmCollection of CAFAMLiu Kaiqu, "Bust of Cai Yuanpei", 1986, Plaster, 24×32cmCollection of CAFAMLooking back at the history of the branch, its profound heritage and glorious journey are deeply moving. In 1950, during the early days of the founding of New China, the branch was established under the guidance of the Party's united front policy, with Mr. Wu Zuoren serving as the first chairman. At the beginning of its establishment, the branch attracted a gathering of distinguished talents, including renowned artists such as Liu Kaiqu, Jiang Zhaohe, Li Hua, Zeng Zhushao, Li Zongjin, Hua Tianyou, Wei Qimei, Dai Ze, and Li Hu, as well as prominent theorists like Chang Renxia, Shen Baoji, Cai Yi, Wang Xun, and Wen Jinyang. Later, Mr. Zhang Anzhi, Xiao Shufang, Wei Zuyin, Luo Erchun, Tian Shiguang, and others joined successively, making the branch a talent hub with both high creative standards and profound academic depth, thus laying a solid foundation for the development of the fine arts industry.Wei Qimei, River Snow, 1970s-1980s, Oil on canvas, 73×100.5cmCollection of CAFA Art MuseumDai Ze, "Furong Town, Xiangxi, Hunan", 1986, watercolor on paper, 39.5×27.5cmCollection of CAFA Art MuseumWen Jinyang, "Construction Site of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge", 1954, wood panel with oil paint, 41.5×53.5cmCollection of CAFA Art MuseumXiao Shufang, "Rainbow", around 2000, ink and color on paper, 68×71cmCollection of CAFA Art MuseumLuo Erchun, "Mountain Ridge", 20th century, oil on canvas, 73×92cmCollection of CAFA Art MuseumOver the past seventy-five years, through trials and tribulations, the branch has upheld the tradition of the China Democratic League of "advocating for national affairs and concerning about people's livelihood", adhered to the original aspiration of "art for the people", and under the leadership of the Party, has written an epic that resonates with the times. In the 1950s, Mr. Liu Kaiqu, Wu Zuoren, Hua Tianyou, Zeng Zhushao and other gentlemen participated in the creation of the reliefs of the Monument to the People's Heroes, while Mr. Wang Xun and Li Zongjin devoted themselves to the design of the national emblem, forging the spiritual coordinates of the country through art. In the 1980s, it took the lead in establishing the Beijing Calligraphy and Painting Art Research Association and held the "Wen Yiduo Art Exhibition", injecting vitality into the recovery of the fine arts cause. Entering the 21st century, it has made in-depth efforts in the fields of aesthetic education infiltration, national image design, and rural revitalization, serving national strategies with professional expertise and vividly practicing the oath of "creating for the people and writing a biography for the times"."Art for Life" is not only an artistic proposition put forward by Mr. Wu Zuoren, but also the spiritual core inherited by the branch. It emphasizes that art should take root in the national soil, reflect the style of the times, and serve the needs of the people, guiding generation after generation of league members to move forward steadily. Here, we would like to express our gratitude to the Central Committee of the China Democratic League, the Beijing Municipal Committee of the China Democratic League, the Dongcheng District Committee of the China Democratic League, and the Chaoyang District Committee of the China Democratic League. We also pay tribute to the Party Committee of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and various departments that have cared about the construction of the branch, which has enabled us to sort out the precious materials of our predecessors and present the artistic charm and spiritual demeanor of the ancestors in a complete manner.Standing at the new starting point of the 75th anniversary, may all members of the Central Academy of Fine Arts Alliance take this exhibition as an opportunity, under the strong leadership of the school's Party Committee, to carry forward the glory of our predecessors, bravely shoulder the mission of the times, devote themselves to creation and education with full enthusiasm and exquisite skills, and make greater contributions to the prosperity of China's fine arts in the new era and to the cultivation of artistic talents who are tasked with national rejuvenation!Branch of Central Academy of Fine Arts of the China Democratic LeagueDecember 2025主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠

: 你那里下雪了吗？邀你来央美看一场独一无二的 “雪”

2025-12-15

这里的“雪”，不会因气温而消融，它们凝固在宣纸之上，流淌于油彩之间，铭刻于布面之中，承载着美学的精神，也映照出艺术家们对自然、历史与人文的深切感知。我们邀请你暂别室外的寒风，步入这座艺术殿堂，一同寻觅那些独一无二的“雪景”。1956年，中苏联合登山队成功登顶海拔7509米的慕士塔格峰，创下了当时的世界纪录。这一壮举极大地鼓舞了全国人民的士气。当时的靳尚谊先生正在前苏联专家马克西莫夫主持的“马训班”学习，他深受感动，决定用画笔记录这一历史瞬间。《登上慕士塔格峰》正是他的毕业创作，这不仅是对历史事件的回应，也是靳尚谊先生对所学油画技艺的一次集中实践和汇报。此幅作品正在“请进来的油画——中央美术学院马克西莫夫油画训练班（1955-1957）教学成绩回顾展”中展出，观众可以亲临现场感受这幅融合了时代的召唤与个人的艺术求索的创作。靳尚谊登上慕士塔格峰 180×270cm 布面油彩 1957年作品巧妙地运用了三次倒三角构图：底部交错的冰裂缝构成基础三角，登山队员奋力向上的身姿形成动态的第二个三角，而远处雄伟的雪峰则构成了稳定画面的第三个三角。这种叠加的、不稳定的三角形结构，极大地增强了画面的动感、险峻感和向上攀登的节奏感，通过仰视角度的运用使观者产生身临其境的紧张氛围。《登上慕士塔格峰》局部靳尚谊先生曾谈到，在马克西莫夫训练班，最大的收获之一是理解了如何“用色彩来思考”，尤其是把握色彩的冷暖关系。在这幅画中，他运用冷暖对比来塑造高海拔的严寒环境与登山者的坚韧生命力。如人物服装的深褐色与雪地的冷灰色形成强烈对比，既符合自然逻辑，也凸显了人物的主体形象。画中对登山装备，如背包、冰镐和绳索的细致描绘，都力求还原历史真实。这些细节不仅增加了画面的可信度，也承载了特定时代的记忆。在靳尚谊先生的艺术年表中，1957年创作的《登上慕塔格峰》无疑是一座醒目的里程碑，是新中国美术史上现实主义油画的典范之作。然而，当我们将目光从画布上那些奋力攀登的身影，移向画布背后那位时年23岁的青年艺术家时，却听到了这样一个清醒而谦逊的声音：

: Starting from the "Maksimov Training Program" | Preview of the First Session of the Series Academic Dialogue (Live Streaming Link Attached)

2025-12-10

Origin and Prism:Realism, Modernism and Contemporary PaintingTime: 15:30-17:30 on December 11, 2025Venue: Academic Lecture Hall, CAFA Art MuseumThis dialogue aims to discuss the "Maksimov Oil Painting Training Program" within the context of China's exploration of oil painting modernity. The "Maksimov Oil Painting Training Program" is not only a part of the history of higher art education development but also the starting point of a set of realist aesthetic creation methodologies concerning "how to see," "how to construct," and "how to narrate." It is almost the starting point of academic training for all artists born in the 1970s and 1980s—including both technical aspects and the conceptual level of creative aesthetics. Since then, some artists have moved away from this realist origin and devoted themselves to exploring contemporary image themes and languages; some artists, while facing the contemporary era, have "returned" to the broader context of modernist experiments—psychologism, abstractionism, and a fascination with structure and reality; others have used methods and tools from the realist heritage—sketching, social presence, actions, etc.—to open up new painting dimensions belonging to the contemporary era. All these are personal expressions that have continuously unfolded with realist aesthetics as the initial origin within China's own social context, opening up the historical prism and evolutionary wormhole of Chinese oil painting and Chinese contemporary painting. This is also the significance of our revisiting the "origin" here and questioning the relationship between today and history.Scan the QR code to make an appointmentParticipate in the eventTo allow a large number of online audiences to participate in this academic dialogue in real-time, we have specially set up an online live streaming channel. At that time, you can watch the entire dialogue synchronously through the live streaming platform and leave messages and ask questions in the interactive section.

: Li Jiwei: Contemporary Art Is A Life Attitude | Jointly Exploring the Attributes of New Works on 'Location'

2025-12-09

On December 6th, the opening ceremony of the space exploration experimental project"POSITION - Li Jiwei", hosted by the Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum, was held as scheduled. "POSITION" is not only an experimental art of concepts and behaviors, but also a way for the artist Li Jiwei to engage in dialogue with the museum's spatial environment.The guests attending the opening ceremony included: Beate Marold, Counsellor of the Embassy of Germany in China, and his husband Klaus Marold; Katharina Weiner, Counselor of the Embassy of Austria in China; Jin Jun, Director of CAFA Art Museum; Wang Chuan, Director of the Department of International Cooperation and Exchange; Gao Yang, Deputy Dean of the School of Urban Design; Gao Gao, Deputy Director of the Museum; artist Li Jiwei, as well as artists, researchers, and curators active in the contemporary art field. Yi Yue, Deputy Director of the Research and Planning Department of CAFA Art Museum, served as the host.Opening ceremony siteGao Gao, Deputy Director of cafa Art MuseumGao Gao, Deputy Curator of the CAFA Art Museum, stated in her speech that this project marks the second collaboration between the CAFA Art Museum and artist Li Jiwei. As Hai Jun, curator and Deputy Curator of the Art Museum of CAFA, emphasized in the preface, Li Jiwei’s works this time constitute an "effective intervention" in the museum’s space—they not only create new spatial relationships and artistic fields but also stimulate the "productivity of the entire space" of the museum. The process of audiences wandering through the museum and "encountering" the works by chance is the key to participating in and experiencing this new type of relationship. The distinct colors and spatial treatment of the works will inject fresh vitality into the overall visual atmosphere of the museum and activate the perceptual potential of the venue. Beate Marold, Counsellor of the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in China, delivered a speechBeate Marold, Counsellor of the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in Beijing, recalled her first encounter with Li Jiwei in her speech, which gave her a deeper understanding and respect for China’s vibrant artistic field. She emphasized that in the forms, colors and materials of the chairs exhibited this time, she saw the continuity of Li Jiwei’s early works, which confirms his artistic philosophy and his ability to create works that resonate deeply with installation art. "Position" is not only a work of art, but also an interdisciplinary installation that touches on humanity’s basic need for freedom and the right to have a place in the world, prompting audiences to reflect on their own positions in both concrete and abstract senses.Gao Yang, Vice Dean of the School of City Design at the Central Academy of Fine Arts , delivered a speechGao Yang, Vice Dean of the School of City Design at the Central Academy of Fine Arts , expressed twofold surprises in his speech: first, meeting Mr. Li Jiwei—whom he had long heard of—in person for the first time; second, discovering that Li Jiwei’s installation works have constructed a new relationship between artwork and product in the museum space, building a bridge between life and art through a unique display method. He specifically mentioned that through the ingenious arrangement and color application in different spaces, the works endow every corner with implicit layering and invite audiences to experience such surprises through their own exploration.Artist Li Jiwei delivered a speechArtist Li Jiwei expressed his gratitude to the project team of CAFA Art Museum for their efforts throughout the entire process of "Position" from planning to the implementation of details, as well as to all distinguished guests present, including representatives from the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in China and the Embassy of Austria in China. Regarding his artistic views, Li Jiwei holds that contemporary art is a life attitude, which is not only about visual forms but also about concepts and ideas; after a work is exhibited, it should leave room for audiences to interpret freely rather than convey a certain absolute answer. Chairs have served as the carrier of his long-term exploration—from production thirty years ago and design twenty years ago to the current expression through painting—continuously reflecting his thinking on forms and media. As for the theme of this project, "Position", he has attempted to find a spatial attribute of "between presence and absence" for art, but also frankly stated that art does not require excessive interpretation, inviting audiences to experience the exhibition on their own.Jin Jun, Director of CAFA Art Museum, delivered a concluding speech and lit up the opening installationJin Jun, Director of the Art Museum of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, delivered a concluding speech and lit up the opening installation on behalf of the museum. He emphasized that this project combines a new form of artwork with the museum space, aiming to let the works find their "new positions", and expressed the expectation that audiences can stimulate more imagination in this environment and discover new positions and relationships.Exhibition siteYi Yue, Deputy Director of the Curatorial and Research Department of CAFA Art Museum, served as the hostGroup photo of distinguished guestsvisiting site"Position" has created a field for the art museum to re-examine thoughts and emotions, and we expect these wonderful works of art to bring audiences a brand-new exhibition experience.This exhibition will run until February 2026.Selected exhibited worksAcrylic , 63 x 87 x 125cmAcrylic , 63 x 87 x 125cmAcrylic , 63 x 87 x 125cmAcrylic , 63 x 87 x 125cmAbout the ArtistLi Jiwei1980-1984: Studied at the Department of Chinese Painting, Central Academy of Fine Arts, and obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree;1984-1988: Taught at the Department of Fine Arts, Beijing Film Academy; 1990-1993: Studied in Professor Markus Prachensky’s "Master Class of Abstract Painting" at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, Austria, and was awarded the "Fugger" Gold Medal and a Master of Arts degree; 1994: Joined the Austrian Association of Professional Artists; 1999-2001: Studied Multimedia at the University of the Arts Berlin, Germany; Since 1996: Has lived and worked in Berlin and Beijing.

: 一件“无需修改”的毕业创作，看68年前“马训班”的《远方来信》

2025-12-05

展览现场《远方来信》（以下简称为《信》）是汪诚一于1957年在“马克西莫夫油画训练班”完成的毕业创作，他与同学詹建俊一同前往北大荒北京青年志愿垦荒队的驻扎地，深入生活三个月进行创作，由此积累了深切的观察与情感体验。此作品正在“请进来的油画——中央美术学院马克西莫夫油画训练班（1955-1957）教学成绩回顾展”展出。汪诚一《远方来信》 144×228cm 布面油彩 1957年中央美术学院美术馆藏作品描绘了垦荒队在北大荒的生活场景，画面中的垦荒队员都是活生生的、有着不同个性和生活背景的人。这封信超越了通信本身，象征着一代青年的理想、信念与精神寄托，探讨了在物质极其匮乏的条件下，什么是支撑幸福的根本力量，展现了一代青年在艰苦环境中坚守信念、创造幸福的精神特质。《远方来信》局部构图在严谨中蕴含着呼吸感，是其抒情基调的骨架，其采用了经典的三角式构图。主体人物群体形成一个坚实的视觉基础，而阅读信件的中心人物则位于这个视觉结构的顶端，构建了稳固而庄重的画面感。同时，人物姿态的微侧、高低错落与疏密聚散，创造出一种舒缓的内部韵律。人物并未直视画外，而是形成一个向内的、封闭的情感循环，将观者的视线与思绪温柔地拢在“读信”这一静谧的瞬间。人物面容的刻画重在捕捉沉浸于阅读时的专注神情，细节生动，女队员读信时后面的男队员迫切望向信件的定格表情展现了他们对家乡亲人的思念。《远方来信》局部开阔而简练的北大荒背景，以横向延展的笔触处理，与竖向的人物群像形成“横与纵”的对比。这种处理既点明了环境特征，更反衬出人物群体的凝聚感，让“人”作为精神主体从自然环境中凸显出来。汪诚一为《远方来信》画的习作——看信的姑娘汪诚一为《远方来信》画的铅笔头像艺术评论家龚云表曾谈到：“虽然汪诚一接受了‘苏式油画’训练，但在《信》中已难觅其踪迹，代之以中国式写意性油画艺术风格。他追求‘笔简意足’，强调表现对象的气质神态和表达自身情感的体验，画面构图和物象造型极为简约，用色节制，以清淡、素雅的中间色调为主，产生柔润含蓄的抒情效果”。《远方来信》局部《信》摒弃了鲜艳强烈的色彩，确立了沉稳、和谐且极富泥土气息的暖灰色调。这种色调直接呼应了北大荒的土地与黄昏的天光，画中的光源处理非常巧妙。它并非强烈的直射光，而是弥漫在空气中柔和如薄暮时分的暖光。这层光晕均匀地笼罩在人物与环境之上，削弱了明确的投影，强化了整体氛围，使现实场景氤氲出理想化的诗意。在统一的暖灰调中，信件本身的“亮色”并非刺眼，而是在环境色的包裹中显得柔和、圣洁，象征着精神之光与情感寄托。展览现场展览现场，“马训班”学员、中央美术学院原院长靳尚谊先生回忆说，“汪诚一的这幅作品马老师基本没改过”。而在任梦璋的课堂笔记中也记录着：“马老师说，詹建俊、汪诚一选择北京知青下乡插队建功立业的《起家》和《信》十分典型，富于激情气概，又有抒情诗意，是对自然美、劳动美的颂歌” 。可以说，这幅作品是中国现代油画史上将时代精神、个人情感与中国美学意蕴相结合的经典之作。它用充满诗意的油画语言，记录了一代人的青春，也留下了关于理想与幸福的永恒探讨。展览现场展览中还展出多幅汪诚一在北大荒驻地创作的小稿，寥寥几笔便表达了鲜活的人物与场景，富有生活气息，更显动人。感兴趣的观众可到中央美术学院美术馆三层B展厅静静欣赏。本次展览将持续至2026年1月3日。请进来的油画——中央美术学院马克西莫夫油画训练班（1955-1957）教学成绩回顾展展览时间： 2025年11月15日—2026年1月3日展览地点：中央美术学院美术馆 1层/3A/4层展厅主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠
