勞倫斯?斯蒂芬?洛瑞(L.S.洛瑞,1887年—1976年)是英國(guó)20世紀(jì)最重要和知名的現(xiàn)代藝術(shù)家之一。此次展覽匯聚的近三十幅洛瑞具有代表性的油畫(huà)及紙本作品,均由我們精心挑選自英國(guó)重要的公共和私人收藏?!禠.S.洛瑞:藝術(shù)家?人民》是繼2013年英國(guó)泰特美術(shù)館的大型回顧展之后,洛瑞在英國(guó)本土以外美術(shù)館的首次個(gè)展。這次展覽能夠使來(lái)自南京、中國(guó)甚至更大范圍的新觀眾有機(jī)會(huì)欣賞洛瑞的作品并了解它們的價(jià)值。
一百年前,洛瑞在英格蘭北部的曼徹斯特開(kāi)始了他的藝術(shù)生涯。當(dāng)時(shí)的曼徹斯特迎來(lái)了一場(chǎng)英國(guó)社會(huì)不可阻擋的大變遷。洛瑞和曼徹斯特城一起處在了英國(guó)工業(yè)迅猛發(fā)展的中心。工業(yè)的突飛猛進(jìn),隨之而來(lái)的是社會(huì)變革。城市里擠滿(mǎn)了人,林立的廠房和煙囪將人們層層包圍(《工廠景觀》,1965)。這也正是中國(guó)與洛瑞作品之間的共鳴之處,這也是在中國(guó)舉辦此次洛瑞作品展的原因。中國(guó)是世界上第一大工業(yè)國(guó),也是經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)最快的國(guó)家之一。城市化、工業(yè)化、現(xiàn)代化正改變著每一個(gè)人的生化方式。這與大約一個(gè)世紀(jì)前洛瑞對(duì)英格蘭北部的那場(chǎng)工業(yè)變革的觀察和記錄有著高度相似性。無(wú)論是那個(gè)時(shí)候的英國(guó)人,還是現(xiàn)在生活在北京上海廣州或南京這樣大都市的中國(guó)人,我們都會(huì)有相似的感受和生活體驗(yàn)。我們伴著擁擠的交通奔波在上班的路上,我們?cè)谙硎芙?jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的同時(shí)又承受著環(huán)境惡化的壓力。我們?nèi)绾蚊鎸?duì)環(huán)境的改變,我們?nèi)绾芜m應(yīng)現(xiàn)代工業(yè)化社會(huì)的生活方式,我們?nèi)绾闻c人群共處?我們又該如何與自己相處? 希望通過(guò)這樣一個(gè)打破時(shí)空限制,充滿(mǎn)了人文關(guān)懷的展覽,我們會(huì)獲得一些安慰,并引起我們的反思。
我們感謝英國(guó)諸多重要公共機(jī)構(gòu)、企業(yè)及私人對(duì)此次展覽的支持和贊助,包括英國(guó)克萊恩?卡爾曼畫(huà)廊、藝觸咨詢(xún)有限公司(英國(guó)),英國(guó)洛瑞中心、薩爾福德市政府,英國(guó)總領(lǐng)事館文化教育處、AXA安盛藝術(shù)品保險(xiǎn),以及Willis韋萊(全球保險(xiǎn)經(jīng)紀(jì)人與風(fēng)險(xiǎn)顧問(wèn))。我們很榮幸在當(dāng)下向公眾推出該展覽及相關(guān)活動(dòng)。

L.S. Lowry: Artist of the People
L.S.LOWRY (1887-1976) is one of the most important and famous British artists of the Twentieth Century, yet his recognition in the rest of the world is still very underestimated. With nearly thirty oil paintings and works on paper selected carefully from British public and private collections, L.S.Lowry: Artist of the People is Lowry’s first solo Museum show outside of the UK. Following his widely acclaimed retrospective exhibition at Tate Britain in 2013, the collection of works at AMNUA will enable a new public to explore and value Lowry’s art - in Nanjing, China and hopefully beyond. We are proud to present this exhibition, with its events, to the public at this moment.
L.S. Lowry: Artist of the People
Date: 14 Nov.-16 Dec.2014
Venue: Art museum of Nanjing University of the Arts No.4 Hall
Organizer: Art Museum of Nanjing University of the Arts
Co - organizer: Crane KalmanGallery(UK),ARTouch Consulting(UK), Cultural and Education Section of the British Consulate-General
Supported by The Lowry(UK),Salford City Council (UK)
L.S.Lowry (1887-1976) began his career as an artist in the city of Manchester a hundred years ago. Manchester had at this time come to represent an irreversible change in Britain. It and sp Lowry was at the heart of British industrial growth and in turn came social change. This city environment was of course full of people like Lowry; surrounded by factories, mills and chimneys (Mill Scene, 1965). This is why the idea of making a small Lowry retrospective in China resonated. China’s evolution from economy rooted substantially in agriculture to on driven by the manufacture of products, quite often for export, mirrors changes Lowry observed and recorded in northern England nearly a century earlier. Lowry was fascinated by human behaviour within this cityscape, from the image of a rain-soaked man shuffling to work (Man in a Trenchcoat, 1945) to the noisy clamour of an auction house sale thronging of people (The Auction, 1957). This was Lowry’s ‘food and drink’. This is Lowry, the artist of the people.
Because the historical process of China with its reality of the moment, the social problems caused by the development, cornered dwelling of people, etc., this exhibition in Nanjing will provoke resonance and reflection. An artist as one of the people, how the people occupy ART, etc., all of these are also present important art proposition-for many fashionable contemporary art practices (Participation, Intervention and Public, etc.), the fineness of the people reflected in art is really a touchstone.
