Pastel in Suzhou/粉画与苏州

苏州作为中国粉画的发祥地之一,现已逐渐成为中国当代粉画艺术的传播中心。二十世纪二十年代,中国现代美术奠基人之一、苏州美专创始人颜文樑先生就积极倡导粉画艺术,他的粉画代表作《厨房》荣获了1929年法国春季沙龙奖,为中国的粉画艺术在美术史上谱写了精彩的篇章。1984年杭鸣时粉画作品《人物》入选第六届全国美展,被评为优秀作品,此画开创了粉画这一画种入选全国综合性画展之先河。进入二十一世纪以来,在苏州市政府的正确领导下,在社会各界的广泛支持下,苏州粉画取得了一系列丰硕的成果。2003年首届和2011年第二届中国粉画作品展的成功举办,进一步扩大了苏州在全国粉画领域的影响,粉画艺术逐渐成为现代苏州一张靓丽的文化名片。2019年是粉画进入中国100周年,中国美术家协会水彩画(粉画)艺术委员会与苏州市委宣传部共同举办了"粉彩百年·荣耀中国"系列活动,得到国内外美术界和粉画艺术家的广泛好评。

As one of the birthplaces of pastel art in China, Suzhou has gradually become the center of Chinese contemporary pastel art. In the 1920s, Mr. Yan Wenliang, one of the fathers of Chinese modern art and the founder of Suzhou Art Academy, actively advocated the art of pastel painting. His representative pastel painting "Kitchen"(1920) won an award at the French National Salon Show in 1929, which has written a wonderful chapter for China in the world history of art. In 1984, Hang Mingshi's pastel painting "People" was selected into the 6th China National Exhibition of Fine Arts and won the work of excellence. It was the first time that pastel engaged in a national exhibition among a variety of art genres. Since the beginning of the 21st century, Suzhou Municipal Government and the society has supported the development of pastel art in Suzhou. A series of fruitful results has been achieved. The success of the first China Pastel Exhibition in 2003 and the second China Pastel Exhibition in 2011 further expanded the influence of Suzhou city in the pastel art world of the country. Pastel art is gradually becoming part of the beautiful cultural "name card" of modern Suzhou. 2019, In order to further promote the development of pastel art in China, we held a series of events to celebrate"The 100th anniversary of China Pastel", which was widely praised.

China Pastel Network/粉画艺术

2012年在杭鸣时、李晓林、庞茂琨、陆庆龙等艺术家的关心支持下,苏州开始组建中国粉画工作团队。2013年粉画艺术网(www.chinapastel.com)正式上线,同时由从事粉画创作研究、教育传播、展览展示、材料研发等机构和个人组成的工作网络启动运行。粉画艺术网是中国以传播和普及粉画艺术为宗旨的互联网平台,致力于加强艺术家之间的交流与合作,提升粉画艺术创作整体水平,同时配合各级美术家协会开展粉画艺术普及活动,积极参与推动中国粉画事业的有序健康发展。粉画艺术工作网络英文名称为:China Pastel Network(CPN)。2014年CPN加入国际粉画协会IAPS,同年"粉画艺术"微信公众号上线。在中国美术家协会、苏州市政府及相关机构的推动支持下,我们先后举办了一百多场丰富多彩的艺术活动,并形成"中国大学生粉画作品展" "中国(苏州)国际粉画双年展" "粉画艺术(中国)季度在线展"等重要品牌活动。特别值得一提的是,2016年第二届"中国(苏州)国际粉画双年展"入选国家文化部青年策展人扶持计划。

In 2012, with the support of the artists including Hang Mingshi, Li Xiaolin, Pang Maokun, Lu Qinglong and so on, a team working towards the goal of promoting pastel art started to form in Suzhou. In 2013, the online portal of Chinese pastel art (www.chinapastel.com) was put into operation. And at the same time, China Pastel Network (CPN) which consists of social groups and individuals engaged in pastel art research, education, exhibition and materials was established. The network is the platform in China with the purpose of spreading and popularizing pastel art. The mission of the network is to strengthen the artistic exchanges, to improve the overall quality of Chinese pastel artistic creation, and to cooperate with artists' associations at all levels to carry out the popularization of pastel art in China. In 2014, CPN became a member of the International Association of Pastel Societies (IAPS). In the same year, the official account of WeChat, known as "Pastel Art ", began to be used. Under the support of Chinese Artists Association, Suzhou municipal government and related organizations, and through the unremitting efforts of CPN, spectacular results have been achieved in the field of pastel art. A series of exhibitions and events organized by China Pastel Network were launched, including the annual "Chinese College Students Pastel Exhibition", "China (Suzhou) International Pastel Biennial Exhibition", "Pastel Art (China) Quarterly Online Exhibition", and so on. It is particularly worth mentioning that " the 2nd China (Suzhou) International Pastel Biennial Exhibition " in 2016 was selected into the support program for young curators of the Ministry of Culture of the People's Republic of China.
