許炯 Xu Jiong China, b. 1983

Each Modern亞紀畫廊與南城美術館很高興宣布林亦軒「太陽的鉛筆」、許炯「帶我去遠方」，將同時於6月25日起舉辦。兩位藝術家分別自美術館的駐留項目中獲得對繪畫、文化、生命的新線索，以各自獨特的藝術手法與詩意，累積出新的色彩與線條、拙樸的型態、或既具有機性亦具精神性的圖樣。

Each Modern and Nanjo Art Museum are pleased to announce Lin YiHsuan's "The Sun’s Pencil" and Xu Jiong's "HOME" will be held simultaneously from June 25. The two artists obtained new inspiration from landscapes, culture, and daily life during the residency and accumulated fresh presentation both organically and spiritually.

Each Modern 亞紀畫廊很高興宣布舉辦許炯的最新個展「山水 2022 SS」。2019年，許炯在亞紀畫廊的個展「自畫像」是他創作的重要轉折點。在該展覽中，許炯首次嘗試以壓克力顏料表現書寫和抽象，並在之後發展到複合媒材的使用，也首次運用了拼貼的方法。除了技法的拓展之外，他對山水的前衛詮釋也延續至了本次展覽，數十件的新作呈現許炯近年來不斷顛覆框架的「山水畫」和其身處的「環境」。

Each Modern is pleased to announce Xu Jiong’s latest solo exhibition “ShanShui 2022 SS.” In 2019, Xu’s solo show “Self-portrait” at Each Modern was a turning point. He used acrylic to create calligraphy and abstraction for the first time and extended his mediums to mixed media and collaging. Besides the methods, Xu continues his pioneer interpretation of “ShanShui (landscape; Shan: mountain, Shui: water)” to “ShanShui 2022 SS,” presenting how he reacts and overthrows the image of “ShanShui” and its surrounding.

本展呈現許炯2014至2018年書法時期各階段代表作，其中多幅《春之祭》作品為首次展出。許炯關於書法復興的根源是深刻且多樣的，這些早期作品說明許炯挖掘各種來源與繪畫傳統，從良寬、賈島、到董其昌，許炯嘗試一系列突破的變化，他輕柔又狂放的筆觸、意想不到的圖案，喚起東方媒材成為波普藝術與流行文化的可能－正是在這些作品中，我們看到對今日許炯的藝術實踐至關重要的各種元素，且明白他是如何對創造亞洲藝術的自我價值的過程與歷史著迷不已。

This exhibition presents Xu Jiong's significant works from 2014 to 2018, among which many works of Spring Monster are exhibited for the first time. The roots of Xu’s calligraphic revival are deep and varied. These early works show Xu mining various sources and traditions, from Liangkuan, Jia Dao, to Dong Qichang, and experimenting with a range of new format. His gentle and wild touch, unexpected patterns that evoke the possibilities of oriental media as pop art and pop culture. It is in these works that one sees the elements essential to Xu’s practice today. As this exhibition makes clear, Xu is a sophisticated visual thinker endlessly fascinated with the process and history of painting.
