The paintings with bright colors and simple lines tell the idyllic stories and urban styles of the new era.
Character strokes with modern young people as the main creative roles, "Woman Thirty", "A Red Bean", "The Past Is Like Smoke", "A Curtain of Dreams"... Wang Guanjun carefully painted a modern version of "Wu Belt Dangfeng".
On the afternoon of October 23, I met Wang Guanjun in Pinggu County and HeshanJu in Beijing. He said: "I was born in 1976 in a small village in Housan Township, Wangkui County, and in 1998 I was admitted to the Chinese Painting Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. The stories of my childhood, the grass and trees in my hometown, as well as children and middle school classmates, always appear in my dreams. Now, they and the scenery of the cold black earth are frozen in my paintings, solidified into the story of youth. ”
Wang Guanjun graduated in 2002 and received a Master of Arts degree from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2006. When he graduated, he was recruiting at the Beijing Academy of Painting, and Wang Guanjun submitted a resume and became a full-time painter of the academy. The artists of the academy, rich collection resources and strong academic atmosphere, the thick nutrition and natural environment here have given Wang Champion a natural environment and the sunshine and rain dew of growth, which has made his painting skills improve rapidly, and his artistic attainments have realized the Taoist method of Chinese painting in "Painting Mountain Climbing", and created a series of large-scale works, which can be called superior products.
Since 2002, Wang Guanjun has successively participated in the Huang Binhong Prize National College Artists' Works Exhibition, the National Youth Art Works Exhibition, and the "Brilliant History: Picture Scrolls of the Times" to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. In 2006, Wang Guanjun's works participated in the Portrait Art Exhibition of Chinese Young Artists in Sydney, Australia, and held the "Jinsehua Nian - Wang Champion Solo Works Exhibition" in Shanghai, which attracted widespread attention and rave reviews. In 2001, his works participated in the Bronze Medal of the Huang Binhong Award national college artists' exhibition, in 2002, "Mizuki Nianhua" participated in the Fifth National Gongbi Painting Exhibition and won the gold medal, in 2003 "Our Space" won the bronze medal of the Second National Chinese Painting Exhibition, in 2003, "The Past Is Like Smoke" won the gold medal at the "Microscopic and Exquisite" - The First Chinese Gongbi Heavy Color Small Works Art Exhibition, and in 2008", "Rainy Season" participated in the Third China Beijing International Art Biennale and won the Chinese Young Artists' Works Award. And won the highest award of the 3rd National Youth Art Exhibition, and in 2011, "Don't Go Home Tonight" won the highest award of the 4th National Youth Art Exhibition... This marks the coordinates of his brush strokes in the temple of art. Continuous participation in the exhibition, careful observation of the best, listening to the teachings of the masters, mutual exchange of painting skills, Wang Champion's level of brush painting creation is radical and constantly innovative, creating a series of work brush painting works such as Jin SerHua Nian, Classic Feelings, And Juvenile Tour, etc., the picture vividly shapes the students and teenagers struggling in the city and the special people living in the simple countryside, and uses the symbols of contemporary youth culture to refine the "Wang Champion Style" of contemporary Gongbi character painting.
In his youth, Wang Guanjun is a diligent and wise man, who persistently moves forward in the pursuit of artistic exploration and self-transcendence, and has become the leader of the Beijing Academy of Painting and the leader of China's contemporary young painters. On the outskirts of Beijing, Wang Guanjun, who lives in seclusion on the outskirts of Beijing, lives in a mountain village where flowers, vegetables and birds are grown in the quiet mountain forest, which does not seem to be "youthful" at all, which is the source of art of Gongbi painting. His brushes take contemporary urban classmates and teenagers as the main theme, creating a living contemporary youth cultural symbol, and the background is always colored with faint green bamboo, fluttering willow branches, cooking smoke, and falling snow, which are pastoral story elements. He said: "This is the cultural spirit released by the inner peace and thinness, which is supported by the temperament of one's own youth and the ideal of nature." The Central Academy of Fine Arts takes the banner of "realism" as the stream, and Wang Guanjun interprets the atmosphere of the times of art with "Danqing New Elephant", inherits the realistic classics of Gongbi painting with elegant aesthetic images, and tells the flowing water of the urban countryside.
As a painter of the Beijing Painting Academy, a national first-class artist, a member of the China Artists Association, a director of the China Gongbi Painting Society, the vice president of the Modern Gongbi Painting Institute and the director of the Character Creation Office, Wang Guanjun teaches the techniques of Gongbi painting to students while creating, explores the new pattern of Gongbi in multi-dimensional art space, solidifies new classics in historical timing, and explains the constant artistic Taoism. Wang Guanjun believes that the growth process and artistic creation of all things are the sublimation of "by the art of the near way", and the inherent potential and the efforts of the day after tomorrow will move out of the beautiful artistic conception. Chinese painting art techniques are colorful, Daofa is even more profound, and the application of lines and colors requires solid and protracted training in order to achieve the artistic realm of "mountains high and man-made peaks". When admiring the paintings of "Woman Thirty", the first thing that attracts people is the pen and ink, then the taste of art, careful speculation and even closed eyes and meditation, the woman with a cigarette in her hand, perhaps just cleaned up the beautiful living room, sitting on a small carpet under the anchovy bamboo, looking back out the window, melancholy or anticipation, blurring the not-so-distant memory in the aroma of coffee and the idyllic smell of tobacco... Beautiful people, beautiful artistic conception, everyone will have a different understanding and reverie.
Talking with Wang Guanjun about the goal positioning and vivid practice of Wang Guanjun to promote the construction of "cold black soil capital, green industry city, and pastoral health land" to a higher quality development and the vivid practice of various places, Wang Guanjun asked about the development and changes of Wangkui from time to time. When he saw the beautiful scenery of the Xiwa Desert Wetland Reserve in the propaganda album, he was very excited, saying that his hometown was beautiful and the ecology was good.
In 2015, Wang Guanjun set up the "Shushan Scholarship" in the name of his father at his alma mater Wangkui No. 2 Middle School to support students with excellent academic performance and poor families, and has donated dozens of students to complete their studies and have been awarded the gold list. Wang Guanjun said that in the future, he will do his best to help more students achieve academic success, realize their ideals in life, and contribute to the construction and development of Wangkui and even Suihua. Wang Guanjun said that my hometown Wangkui is a well-known "poetry county" and "calligraphy town" in the country, and in the past two years, we have held a painting competition for primary and secondary school students in the county, which not only gave awards, but also guided teaching on the spot. In the future, for young people with painting talents and love of painting art, they will give academic and financial help and support to jointly carry forward the excellent traditional Chinese culture and promote the development of cultural undertakings in their hometowns.
In recent years, Wang Guanjun has returned to his hometown many times, and has also visited with some friends to prepare to invest in the construction of cultural industry projects. Wang Guanjun believes that the development concept of "pastoral health care place" proposed by the Suihua Municipal Party Committee is very in line with people's living needs and is also a development idea with cultural creativity. If the opportunity is ripe, I will go back to take a look, collect wind and create, paint several paintings showing the beautiful scenery of Suihua in my hometown and the industrious and kind people, promote the "capital city" to more people, and add a piece of artistic wisdom.
Wang Guanjun said: "The urban construction of the hometown has made great progress, and great achievements have been made in the rural economy, rural environment, rural governance, etc., and the people's livelihood and well-being have been extensively improved. I feel that my hometown is clean and clean, the government is harmonious, and it shows a scene of prosperity. As a Suihua person, I am proud of my hometown. I wish my hometown: the people live and work in peace and contentment, the culture flourishes, and the economy casts glory again! ”
