何工访谈

Interview with He Gong

段炼（以下简称段）：你在蓝顶的工作室．周围环境给人印象很深。说到环境．应该有纵向历史和横向氛围两层意思，而不仅仅是蓝顶的自然环境。所以．要谈论你的画，得有一个历史发展的眼光．还得有一个共时关系的眼光。也就是说．我想同你谈两个大问题．一是你的艺术道路问题．二是你的艺术同中国当代艺术的关系问题。

In a workshop held during the exhibition of ＇Start off from the South-west＇, Senior M talked about the reason why they took the road of modern art. He said it was simply because they did not want to be suppressed by systematic art, which tells a truth. A considerable number of ＇modem＇ artists were actually ＇forced to＇ take this road. Since the end of 1980s＇, I have been totally off the track of the administrative art and free from any such circles. In 1990s＇, when I resided in North America, my subjects might have carried some trendy elements with a hint of ＇international interpreter＇, but the forms I took were far from the new media, materials and forms with great popularity at that time.
