见到袁金塔先生是在中国美术馆,本来可以很“正式”的发布会记者提问,因为袁先生妙趣横生的回答而变得轻松平常。面对记者的提问,兴之所至,他甚至手舞足蹈,描述自己的台湾乡间的童年经历对自己以后创作的影响。总是面带笑容、一口台式普通话,典型的台湾本土人的长相——这些,都让我想起台湾乡土电影里那些熟悉又陌生的人物。他是我生活中见到的最台湾的艺术家,他的艺术作品生发于台湾乡土,烙下了深深的台湾印记,然而却又在乡土之外,以“国际”的多种姿态和技法呈现出来。 It is easy to see Yuan Yuantao’s press conference at the National Art Museum of China, which could have been very “official.” In the face of questions raised by reporters, he even went dancing and described the impact of his own childhood experiences in Taiwan’s rural areas on his own creative writing. Always smiling, a Taiwanese Mandarin, typical of Taiwanese natives - all reminds me of those familiar and unfamiliar characters in Taiwanese local films. He is the most Taiwanese artist I have ever seen in my life. His works of art have taken root in Taiwan’s native land and have deeply imprinted the Taiwanese imprint. However, outside of the local area, he has adopted various gestures of “international ” and The technique is presented.
