知名法籍華人藝術家馬德升,恰逢其與王克平參與創辦的著名北京《星星美展》40周年紀念,在香港開啟他的新展覧,作出行為藝術「我愛天安門母親」,作為對六四大屠殺30週年的特別敬禮。
作為中國最有魅力的藝術家之一,馬德升亦是後毛澤東時代首個當代藝術運動的領軍人物,抗衡中共主導的宣傳藝術。此先鋒運動在中國當代藝術的發展中俱有獨特地位。
是次展覽《法國五月》的節目之一,在10 Chancery Lane畫廊展出至6月22日。
馬德升是一位有名的詩人,另外他的藝術品亦被M+博物館(香港)、龐畢度中心(巴黎)、大英博物館(倫敦)、賽努奇博物館(巴黎)、巴黎市現代藝術博物館、查邁利維斯當代歷史博物館協會(法國)、牛津博物館(倫敦)、默倫博物館(法國)、亞洲藝術館(尼斯)、香港大學美術博物館收藏。
40 years after the famed 1979 Stars Exhibition in Beijing, artist Ma Desheng opens his new show in Hong Kong with a performance art ‘I Love the Tiananmen Mothers’ as a special tribute on the 30th anniversary of the June 4 Massacre of pro-democracy students in China.
Ma rose to prominence in the late 1970s co-founder of the Stars Group, a collective of self-taught rebels exploring alternatives to the Socialist propaganda art permitted by the Communist Party, which organised two public exhibitions that were both quickly quashed by authorities. He is one of the pioneers of Chinese contemporary art.
The wheelchair-bound 67-year-old now lives in Paris. Ma is collected by the M+ Museum, Hong Kong; the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; The British Museum, London; Museum Cernuschi, Paris; Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris; l’Association du Museum d’Art Contemporaine de Chamalières, France; Museum of Oxford, Oxford; Museum de Melun, France, Asian Art Museum, Nice; The University of Hong Kong Museum, amoung others. Ma is a published and celebrated poet.
