今年の7月に訪れた上海で知ったアーティスト、蔡玉龍（ツァイ・ユーロン）から新作展「气?／The Activity of Vitality」の案内が届いた。このブログの記事も読んでいただいたようだ（中国語に訳したのかな）。
チラシが添付されていたが、これがまた底知れないアウラをまとっている。何しろ作品を直に観たいところだが、先週上海に行ったばかりであり、多分今回は体験できない。残念至極！！ 誰か10月17日から11月17日までに上海を訪れる人がいたら、ぜひ莫干山路・M50のギャラリー「TSAIYUlONG ART SPACE」に足を運んで、感想を聴かせて欲しい。
“The Activity of Vitality”<o:p></o:p>

Preface<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Regarding Mr. Tsai Yulong’s art creation (no matter drawings or calligraphy), what you will finally discover is his inspiring capacity, which could touch our modern people very much. We can always find some natural images and totems from its abstract expression.The refreshing color & Ink often burst out a different sense of beauty which only comes out by accident; the ink sticks & lines are haphazard, but smart & distinct.The variation of shade gives the whole picture such a spacious view, but never lose its inimitable mystery.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
It seems that he puts his whole romantic soul in his creative process.The ink color brings us such a grand view that as if we are in the lofty mountains & seas of clouds by enjoying his works.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The thick ink & the orderly weighted lines show the flourish of life as well as the charming of nature.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Mr.Tsai was once laughed at himself as his lonely journey to the Palace of Fine Art.He is such an ego & non-mainstream artist.From my personal opinion,as art,the less utilitarian it concerns the more freedom it will gain,so as artist.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The Neo-Confucianism considered “qi” (Vitality) as the base of universe, “the activity of vitality” which is another meaning of “the activity of universe”. It's just Tsai’s initial creating point: plain, nature, but diligent.<o:p></o:p>
