  Gallery EXIT 安全口画廊将举行Makoto FUJIMURA的首个香港个人展览《天恩》(Charis)。这次展览中心的作品《天恩》是阔达三米的巨大黄金制成品,显示了Fujimura最有影响力的作品的重大意义。「Charis」(天恩)是「charisma」的缩写,意即天赋的才能,起源于希腊的文字,圣保罗曾引之为「恩典」的意思。艺术是天赋的才能,而艺术本身便是恩典。Fujimura对金与矿的颜料效果进行深入研究,为的是提高物料折射的可能性,同时也令我们感受到作品的壮丽特性。
  
  Makoto FUJIMURA于1960年美国麻萨诸塞州波士顿出生。他拿得日本政府奖学金,于1989年毕业于东京艺术大学的艺术硕士课程。东京艺术大学收藏了他的毕业作品并邀请他修读日本画博士课程,他是首位就读此项著名传统课程的异乡人。
  
  在日本学习的六年半里,Fujimura开始混合美国的抽象表现主义及传统的日本画。Fujimura在日本及美国成为了成功的画家已20年,他是两种文化于美学与文化审美的权威人物,不断创作及探讨美的形态。他的绘画强调制作的过程及探索作品的意义,能把受众从认知的范畴带到内心深处的体验。

  Makoto FUJIMURA: Charis
  
  2009.12.12 - 2010.01.23
  Opening reception: Saturday, December 12, 5-7 pm
  Location: Gallery EXIT, G/F, 1 Shin Hing Street, Central, Hong Kong
  Gallery opening hours: Mon - Sat, 1100 -1900
  
  Gallery EXIT is pleased to present Charis, the first solo exhibition of Makoto Fujimura in Hong Kong. The center piece Charis is a monumental gold composition over 3 meters in width which shows the significance of Fujimura's most powerful work. "Charis" is the Greek word that St. Paul used for "grace," shorthand for the word "charisma," which means gift. Art is a gift, and essentially, art is grace. The more Fujimura journeys deeply into the effects of gold and mineral pigments, the more he is taken by the refractive possibilities of the materials, while at the same time, drawing us into the glory built into them.
  
  Makoto FUJIMURA was born in 1960 in Boston, Massachusetts. He received a M.F.A. from Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music with a Japanese Governmental Scholarship in 1989. His thesis painting was purchased by the University and he was invited to study in the Japanese Painting Doctorate program, a first for an outsider to this prestigious traditional program.
  
  It was during the six and a half years of studying in Japan that Fujimura began to assimilate the combinations of abstract expressionism explored in the US with the traditional Japanese art of Nihonga. After 20 years as a successful artist in Japan and the U.S., Fujimura has become a voice of bi-cultural authority on the nature and cultural assessment of beauty, by both creating it and exploring its forms. His paintings address the creative process and explore what it means to see. The work moves the observer from cognitive categorization to visceral experience.
  
  The artist will be present at the opening reception. For more information, please contact Doris Wong at the gallery at 2541 1299 or email info@galleryexit.com.
