Abstract:

The way out for Chinese painting is a culture proposition that Chinese cultural elites and Chinese artists have painstakingly explored and pondered over the past hundred years. However, in the process of the evolution of Chinese painting for more than thousands of years, it has experienced the breakthrough of Danqing's ink painting, the transformation of figure paintings into landscape paintings, and the sublimation of "calligraphy into paintings", which has formed the core value that brush and ink is of the upper limit, thus limiting the possibilities of exploration. In the context of Contemporary Art, whether breaking through the hard shell of Chinese painting, abandoning brush and ink, replacing painting with concept, and introducing information can make Chinese painting get out of the predicament? The Beyond Ink Art Exhibition, which was hosted by Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts and co-organized by China Art Palace, has posed the inspiration of diversified and multi-directional breakthrough of contemporary Chinese painting.
