记忆中的肖像-纯真年代II

Gulistan古丽斯坦的作画,宛如其人,轻盈飘逸,空灵幽幻。她的组画《记忆中的肖像》,融通中西,纵贯古今,将时间和空间在记忆的元素中汇聚重组,整合成一幅幅既朦胧淡泊、又明晰可亲的清纯画面,其间既有闲情逸致的花香鸟语,又有神秘幽邃的天苍海碧。东方亮丽的鹅黄与西域忧郁的浅蓝交相辉映,波斯花卉的天方遐想与拜占庭镶嵌的金色梦幻氤氲萦绕;罗马皇帝的昔日辉煌犹如过眼烟云,土耳其宫女的今世诱惑不过昙花一现。白驹过隙,映射出达利的永恒记忆;仙鹤飞天,显现出佛家的真如智慧。还有东山魁夷幽远宁静的山林水泽与蒙克躁动翻涌的天空云彩,更是把现实与梦幻在时空的记忆中砸碎揉合。观赏Gulistan古丽斯坦的画作,不仅有悠远的审美意韵,而且有深邃的哲理启迪,方感人生在世不过南柯一梦,浓墨重彩无非博人一笑,轻描淡写才是生命和艺术之真谛。


Gulistan古丽斯坦的画作,宛如其人,一言以蔽之,就是“清纯”二字。没有任何矫饰的天真无邪,犹如古希腊的心灵纯洁而永生的孩童,苍穹万象、天工巧匠,尽在率性流露之中,展现了朴实无华的本真之美。

Gaze – Recent Works by Gulistan

Gulistan’s works have been highly appraised by Mr. Huang Du, a well-known international curator and contemporary art critic, who thinks that she is a contemporary artist with unique aesthetic taste who draws inspiration and energy from the classics and returns to elegance in a post-modern way. This is completely different from the general comment of “superb skill, gladden the heart and please the eye”.

Contemplating the Middle Ages I

In recent years, Gulistan’s paintings have further expanded and dived further, requiring a more complete layout and more individuality. A more powerful expression, the most representative of which should be this “Memory of the portrait-Self-gaze”. This is developed from a small painting of two people playing a game many years ago. Completed in 2019. The works are still elegant and gentle, but the air is very strong; the techniques are still simple and simple, but the careful examination is richer and more refined. In the center of the picture are two busts. They are similar but different. The lower part of the painting is like a mountain, like water, like clouds and mist, like a sensible natural dream, and like the original prehistoric universe? They are not the existence of reality, but the existence of people and nature structured by the author with montage technique, expressing that “You have me and I have you”, “Dao that can be daoed(dao in Chinese that has one meaning means express)is not the true Dao” philosophical thinking, virtual intertwined close relationship. The chaotic and sacred atmosphere created by the whole picture tells us that their gazes are both projected to each other and inwardly watching. Only such feedback and thinking involve deeper propositions.


Gulistan is not just immersed in it with the audience, think about human beings themselves, the relationship between people, and the relationship between people and nature. Wings are also given to the protagonists to symbolize the freedom and hope that reflective human beings may have. Just like herself, she advocates the free and uninhibited flying of the mind, and is always in touch with the blood of her family and country. And when the epidemic is raging all over the world.. This creation undoubtedly more profoundly interprets the essence of the work originating from great love!

Tribute to the classics VI

In fact, no matter which series of Gulistan’s works, the common theme is love. Without love, how can beauty pass and forever? Without thought, how can there be deep power? When these two are combined, and touch our heartstrings with both classical and modern artistic language, we will be deeply moved; we will realize that because of love, gentleness can also be very powerful!


Gulistan’s paintings are very unique and highly recognizable in the painting circle with serious homogenization and bright surface. This insistence on painting concepts and individual language requires strong inner motivation. Must also have comprehensive artistic literacy. Her works are poetic and musical, spanning time and space, but leaving room for the viewer’s imagination. As a result, more and more people read and fell in love with her works.


This painting is relatively large and has strong appeal. It is suitable for collection in art museums or for decoration in living room clubs with large space. I believe that the audience will stop and stare at the work before the painting, echo Gulistan’s love and thinking together, and look back at their hearts together, hoping that both themselves and the world will become better! This is the value of excellent contemporary works!

凝视—Gulistan古丽斯坦近作

Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品曾被著名囯际策展人,当代艺评家黄笃先生给予很高的评价,认为她是从古典汲取灵光和能量並以后现代的方式回归典雅,具有独特美学趣味的当代艺术家。这和 “技艺高超,赏心悦目”的一般评论完全不在一个层面。

记忆中的肖像-自我凝视

近些年,Gulistan古丽斯坦的画作又进一步开阔和深潜,要求有更完整的佈局和更个性、更有力的表述,其中最有代表性的应该是这幅“记忆中的肖像-自我凝视”。这是从多年前一幅两人对弈的小画发展深化而成。完成于2019年。作品仍淡雅温柔,气㘯却很大;手法仍简洁单纯,细察却更丰富更精致。画面中心是两个半身像,他们相似又有差别,画的下半部,如山似水如云若雾,像可感的自然梦境又像原初的洪荒宇宙?他们不是现实的存在,是作者用蒙太奇手法结构的人和自然的存在,表达你中有我,我中有你;道可道,非常道的哲思,虚拟相互交织的密切关系。整个画面营造的粛穆和神圣的氛围告诉我们,他们的凝视既有相互投射又有内心观照,这样的反馈和思考,才涉及更深的命题。


Gulistan古丽斯坦在这里不只是和观众一起沉浸其中,共同思考人类自身,人与人,人与自然的关系。还特别给予主角们加了翅膀,象征有反思的人类可能拥有的自由和希望。正像她自己,崇尚自由心灵的飞翔无羁,又时时情牵家国血缘根脉。而当疫情肆虐全世界时,这幅创作,无疑更深刻的诠释了作品源于大爱的本质!

曾经的辉煌VI

其实Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品,不论是哪个系列,共同的主题都是爱,没有爱.哪来美的流逝和永恆?没有思想,哪有深蓫的力量?当这两者结合在一起,又以既古典又现代的艺术语言触动到我们的心弦时,我们才会被深深打动;我们才会悟到,因为有爱,温柔也可以很有力量!


Gulistan古丽斯坦的画,在同质化严重、表面光鲜亮丽的画坛显得十分独特,辨识度很高。这种对绘画理念和个性语言的坚持需要强大的内心动力。还要有全面的艺术素养。她的作品交融了诗意和乐感,跨越了时间和空间,但又给观者留有想象的空间。也因此越来越多的人读懂了、爱上了她的作品。


这幅画比较大,感染力也强,适合美术馆收藏,或空间较大的客厅会所佈置。相信观众会在画前停住脚步凝视作品,一起呼应Gulistan古丽斯坦的爱和思考,共同反观自己的内心,希望自己和世界都变得更美好!这才是优秀的当代作品的价值所在!

The Unseen Silk Road—Insights and thoughts from watching Gulistan’s paintings

March 29th, 2021

Li Lei

Executive Director, Shanghai Art Museum

Growing desire I

Gulistan’s paintings are like the little owl she drew, taking off from the Gobi Desert in Central Asia, flying east across the Pacific Ocean and west to the Mediterranean Sea, which is the journey of most of the earth. She keeps going back and forth, scanning the earth and the ocean with elvish eyes, looking through the ancient times and the future.


When I face Gulistan’s paintings, it seems that I have been brought into her subconscious visual scene. The remains of those ancient civilizations do not seem to be buried by flying sands, but being vacantly hanged in a foot away, smiling at their own past. I see a young girl who seems to be standing by the edge of the wall two thousand years ago,staring at me with her sharp eyes. Can I go back to her?Maybe there is a sea that seeps into the long-dried Gobi, and a white cloud is steaming in the most central part of the Asian continent. The cloud falls on the girl’s chest and becomes the lace that sets off her noble head. Maybe the girl goes to farther southern Europe, and a pair of wings growing out of her hairline. These wings are a gathering of mountains, forests, rivers, flowers, birds, and beasts, and become an oasis that could take a rest during the long migration of life.


Gulistan is a magician of time and space. The memory fragments of any place can be incorporated into the picture by her hands, therefore her paintings reflect the meaning of traveling through time and space. This ability can’t be obtained by training in the academy, it is the courage from her deep inner heart. No wonder that Gulistan is able to easily throw the paintings out at her willingness. Gulistan’s owls should have been hovering over the ancient Silk Road for many centuries, and numerous of passing lives should appear as the portraits at a certain moment.


What a mysterious world!

潜视中的丝绸之路——读Gulistan古丽斯坦的画

March 29th, 2021

李磊

运送音乐的猫头鹰

Gulistan古丽斯坦的画就像她画的那只小猫头鹰,从中亚的戈壁起飞,往东飞穿越太平洋,往西到达地中海,那是大半个地球的旅程,她不断往返,用精灵般的双眼扫描着大地和海洋、透视着远古与未来。


当我面对Gulistan古丽斯坦的画面时,仿佛被她带入潜意识中的视觉景象。那些远古文明的残片,似乎并不是被飞沙掩埋着,而是在一尺之外的虚悬中,微笑着自己的过往。我看到一位少女,她应该是站在两千年前的土墙边与我对视,犀利的明眸凝视着我,我能回到她的身边吗?也许有一片大海,渗入久旱的戈壁,在亚洲大陆最中心的地方蒸腾起一片洁白的云,那云落在少女的胸前成为衬托她高贵头颅的蕾丝花边。也许那少女去了更远的南欧,她的发际边生长出一对翅膀,这翅膀是山林、河流、百花、鸟兽的聚成,在生命漫漫的迁徙中成为可以稍息片刻的绿洲。


Gulistan古丽斯坦是一位时间和空间的魔术师,任何一个地方的记忆片段都可以被她信手拈来拢入画面,于是她的画便有了穿越时空的意味。这不是在学院训练能够得来的能力,它是发自内心的胆量,因为心里有,所以才能随手甩甩。Gulistan古丽斯坦的猫头鹰应该在古丝绸之路上空盘桓许多世纪了,许多隔世的记忆在某一个时刻显现为肖像。

多么神秘的世界啊!

Posture-Mountain

The most touching thing about Gulistan’s paintings is the pure sense of tranquility and harmony that is far away from the chaos of the world. It contains the aesthetics of European music in the 17th century, and the balanced and harmonious counterpoint of the Renaissance church music master Palestrina seems to be on paper. The vivid works of this different series are a modern person’s memory and nostalgia for that glorious era. The mind seems to transcend the barriers of time and space, cruising in a higher dimension. Gulistan’s paintings have the breath of musical syntax, accentuated pauses, and more blank spaces like large rests. The connection and transition of music and sound, shuttle between the light and shadow of color, showing a driving force of inner growth. It seems to be a frozen picture, as if it is a flowing music, silently evolving in the midst of history. In silence, it slowly settles into a unique portrait of Shen Yun. Did you notice that look? What this gaze contains is the simplicity and cleanliness of human nature inherited from Giotto and Raphael; it is the pursuit of a free spirit that transcends the instinct of Beethoven and Delacroix; it is Mozart’s pursuit of the world. sympathy and nostalgia; the whimsy and vigor of Schumann and ETA Hoffmann. Everything is contained in the harmonious and beautiful picture, which is fascinating.

姿态系列-乔托树

Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画最让人感动的,是那种纯粹的、远离世俗纷乱的宁静感与和谐感。它蕴涵了17世纪欧洲音乐的审美,文艺复兴时代教堂音乐巨匠帕莱斯特里纳平衡和谐的对位法仿佛跃然纸上。这不同系列的一幅幅生动作品,是一个现代人对那个辉煌时代的回忆和留恋。心灵仿佛超越了时间和空间的阻隔,在一个更高维度中游弋。Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画中有音乐句法的呼吸、有重音的顿挫、更有大片休止符一般的留白。音乐和声的连接与过渡,在色彩的光影之间穿梭,呈现出一种内在生长的原动力。看似一副凝固的画面,仿佛是流动的乐音,在历史苍桑中默默演变。无声无息之中,慢慢沉淀成为一副神韵独特的肖像。你注意到那眼神了吗?这凝视中所蕴含的,是从乔托、拉斐尔中传承的人性的淳朴和洁净;是贝多芬和德拉克洛瓦那种超越了本能的对于自由精神的追求;是莫扎特那般对人世的悲悯和留恋;是舒曼和ETA霍夫曼那种奇思妙想和生机勃勃。所有的一切,都蕴含在和谐唯美的图景之下,令人神往。

Posture-Pine Tree

Gulistan’s paintings have both the overall idea of super realism and the presentation of realistic details. Just like the Magic Movies in Hollywood, they give people a wonderful feeling of reality and fantasy. Painters are good at putting different kinds of things existing in different time and space in the same picture. For example, they put the horse of Lang shining on the classical furniture, and juxtapose the flowers and birds of the Song Dynasty with the ancient Greek statues, so as to create the artistic tension effect of “twisting irrelevant things together” similar to the metaphor in the English metaphysical poetry. Another characteristic of her paintings is the quiet atmosphere and elegant color, which may be related to the theme of still life antiques, but perhaps more revealed is the painter’s character and interest.

姿态系列-中国玩偶

Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画既有超写实的整体构思,又有写实的细节呈现,就像好莱坞的魔幻影片一样,给人以一种亦真亦幻的奇妙感觉。画家善于把现实中存在于不同时空里的不同类别的事物放置在同一个画面里,例如把郎世宁的马放在古典家具上,把宋人花鸟与古希腊雕像并置,从而营造出类似英国玄学诗中的奇喻那样“把不相干的事物强扭在一起”的艺术张力效果。其作品的另一特点是气氛的静谧,色彩的淡雅,这也许与题材多为静物古董有关,但也许更多透露的是画家的性格和趣味。

WP0A5122_20150923_171535

美国亚洲文化学院的报道:Gulistan古丽斯坦的创作灵感不仅仅来自东方文化,它也来自许多其他文明…以通向灵性、自由、创造性的纯正艺术,她作品中那种纯粹和优雅风格,是远处的一盏明灯…Gulistan古丽斯坦创造出了一种既属于自己这个时代又“属于所有时代”的艺术作品。Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画没有传统油画技法的束缚,没有流行题材的局限,亦没有视觉语言符号化的追求,她似乎是在一个无拘无束,完全自由的境界往来穿梭。这里,承载着她对生命的体验和感悟,在记忆的尘埃中时隐时现,它们是她心象的呈现。Gulistan古丽斯坦把自己融入画面,任由意念在流逝的时光中潆回,沉积为肌理与色彩的微妙变化,这变化最终蕴集为一个意念的时空。在这无限的时空里她捡拾着记忆的碎片,悉心拂去岁月的尘埃,倾听那无言的诉说,在心灵的最深处与之回应…于是她把时光制成记忆的印签珍藏在画面里,纤弱却不乏顽强,敏感而蕴涵丰富,真实而美好。Gulistan古丽斯坦的画被赋予了生命一般,静静的停留在那里,似乎在等待着被发现……

Gulistan’s inspiration comes from not only eastern tradition but also from many other cultures. As a free spirited creative artist, she creates her artworks with pure artistic focus and an elegance which suggests warm light shining from afar. Gulistan creates an unusual body of work that is contemporary but is also timeles. She is not restricted by traditional styles and skills nor by populist contemporary topics or a reductive visual symbolism. Her works are beyond boundaries, created with deep conviction, they encapsulate her understanding of life and are a metaphor for the self. Travelling through time Gulistan insinuates both herself and her individual colour palette into her works thus creating very special moments in time. These moments in are delicate yet tenacious, true and refined, charged with energy, waiting quietly to be discovered.

绘画是她的表达方式:一场精神的凝望

Gulistan古丽斯坦与生俱来的艺术天赋与神秘血统的她,有着独特的审美与创作语言,可以说是一位真正意义上的美麗智慧型的艺术家,受过全面良好的艺术教育,有着丰富的内蕴。她的绘画犹如她如诗般的气质,空灵自由而意蕴深长,有宋词的意境,混合欧洲文化的韵味,可以在恬淡的色彩与朴素的图式中与任何的生命对话,作品中流露出音乐性和诗性。她的画空灵而纯净,笔触飘逸而柔和,富有诗意,徜徉其中,使你的心不自觉的就会跟着她的画笔一起澎湃。她的画更像是一种媒介,在画中你可以和任何人对话,你可以从一个全新的视角重新认识这个世界。总觉得坠入她画中世界的这段时间,就像是赴了一场弥足珍贵的生命盛宴。我时常觉得她的画光用眼睛看是远远不够的,她的画中仿佛总有一道光,指引着你去找寻那条通往心灵深处的道路,也唯有真正用心灵去品味方能到达这一专属于心灵的仙境,一片心灵的宁静之地。

Painting is Gulistan’s way of communicating; her artistic talent and exotic heritage renders her gaze and her taste uniquely beautiful. She is a genuine combination of intellect and aesthetic the result of education and experience – her paintings are like herself, profound and spare. The colours and patterns have universal appeal and the artworks evince a delicate and spiritual feeling drawing the viewer through a journey of realisation, they present the world from a unique perspective. I frequently feel that one cannot fully comprehend Gulistan’s paintings merely using one’s eyes, but rather, one should look at them one’s heart in order to finally understand the stillness at their core.

WP0A4714_20150922_155447

她的画中有静的一面,亦有动的一面。在她的《海顿的钢琴与古丽的椅子》、《关于时间的传说》和《记忆的性质》系列作品中,仿佛住着一个天马行空的顽童,她将带着你穿越时空的界限,在时间的灰烬中驰骋,带你飞上艺术瑰丽的云端,去呼吸沉淀在画布上的自由的气息。看着她的画,散落的记忆在这一刻凝聚,一个个记忆中的画面也在我们的脑海中相互碰撞着,交织着,留下的是一道道生命的痕迹。无数条记忆的河流流过这些画,感动也在这一刻蔓延开来,感觉好像被一种无法言语的美丽包裹着。你在她的作品中可以感觉到乔托、弗朗切斯卡、荷尔拜因等大师那种信仰的痕迹,她是带着圣徒的信仰去画的,是她精神的凝望的写照。东方的审美崇尚意境,意境是需要空间、需要呼吸的,它流动而有生命力。她把这种东西融入到她的绘画中,让它更单纯、更准确、更本质。在光线不一样的时候,你会发现,那些画隐隐地往外显现,有种有生命的感觉。在她的画中“人类对于精神的凝望”,可以说是古丽斯坦绘画中一以贯之的主题。

Her work is both tranquil and moving. In the series Hayden’s Piano and Guli’s Chair , The Tales ofTime, and The essence of Time, one can feel the artist’s untrammelled spirit radiating from the surface as though an angel guides the viewer through time to witness the beauty of art from on high. Viewing her work reminds us of our past and the imprints this leaves, the paintings stir and overwhelm you, then wrap you in warmth. One can see the traces of Giotto, Francesca, and Holbein, Gulistan paints as a pious follower, with whole heartedness and devotion, yet she still leaves space in her paintings so they can breathe. Her works are floating, dynamic and throughout one can see the motif of ‘human spirituality’.

艺术只对能够在心弦上引起震颤的人传递出音符,时间和空间只为心灵而“存在”,也只因心灵产生意义。引用一段Gulistan古丽斯坦2012台北的个展,台湾的媒体的报道:Gulistan古丽斯坦她的诗意笔触,拯救了浮燥之心。在这个电子世界中,视觉与心灵的诗意栖居之所已无处寻找了,Gulistan古丽斯坦却用她的绘画作品捕捉了这种难以言传的诗意。在她的作品中,幽微的淡淡色彩、模糊的形象,若隐若现的勾线,就好象种种记忆,层层渲染过,又部分被抹涂过。她的重要作品系列如《关于时间的传说》、《记忆中的肖像》、《漫游欧洲》等,都洋溢着一股静气,仿佛就是一个精致的隐喻,神秘如宗教,拯救了这个世界找不到家园的浮燥之心。

Art can only move those who allow themselves to be moved. According to a report by Taiwanese media on Gulistan’s solo exhibition in Taipei: Gulistan uses her visual poetry to save heedless souls. In this world so filled with electronics, it is rare to find a rest place for the sight and the soul, yet Gulistan captures the viewer with her passion. Her influential works such as The Tales of Time, Memory of the portrait, and Wandering in Europe, etc, all express this inner calm which gives repose to the viewer.

WP0A4845-编辑-20150922_20150922_170919

著名的策展人尚辉先生这样评价Gulistan古丽斯坦:和大部分艺术家热衷于描绘现实不同,Gulistan古丽斯坦喜爱表现记忆,但她不是叙述记忆中储存的人物与事件,而是试图捕捉记忆的时间长度和温度……那悠悠的逝去的时光,才是她想真正揭示的世界。Gulistan古丽斯坦总是从此刻起笔而追溯远古。她画的是褪色,是岁月沧桑不时在打磨的那些楞角、光泽和触痕。对于一个画家而言,也许思想的深刻、观念的睿智,都比不了一层色调、一袭线条和一种笔触给予他的兴奋与温暖。Gulistan古丽斯坦最让我们难以忘怀的画面,不是她刻画了什么,而是那些温婉轻柔的米灰色调唤起我们的记忆。她能把这种色调把握得如此熨帖,仿佛是从记忆之维里抽出的旋律,幽微虚幻而带着淡淡的忧伤。

Famous curator Hui Shang comments that Gulistan “differs from most artists who are fond of depicting reality by focusing on portraying the past with nostalgia. She is not trying to describe a certain image or event in the past, but rather try to depict their warmth and distance. What she really wants to portray is the passage of time, Gulistan’s work is all about fading colors and the past that is not retraceable. For the artist, even the most profound thoughts and wise opinions cannot be compared with the colour tones which bring her so much excitement. Gulistan’s work is not about what she paints, but rather the nostalgic and warm feelings which the past evokes in us.”

WP0A4928-20150923-00724-2

著名的艺术批评家陶咏白先生评价Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画:她创作中的记忆中的肖像系列,记忆的性质系列是为了凝望精神,所有的物随时间消逝,唯有精神永恒,她的绘画投射出那种对神的敬仰和纯粹的圣洁,内容里包含的是精神的永恒,她的画在时间和空间穿梭来放飞自己的心灵。她从经验的生命体现飞跃到神性的生命体现,爱因斯坦曾经说过:一个科学家,一个艺术家最重要的是看她用没有神性的生命体现,只有有了神性的生命体现她才能成为正真的科学家和艺术家。

Celebrated art critic Yongbai Tao once said about Gulistan’s paintings that : “her works have a soul of their own. Everything fades with time, but their spirits remain immortal. That piety and purity reflected from her works are immortal. Her works transcend daily objects and become spiritual. even god-like. Einstein once said that the most important thing is to see whether a scientist, an artist, has the divinity of life. Only with that divinity can the artist become truly brilliant.   “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited; imagination encircles the world.”

WP0A4923_20150923_105519

 著名油画艺术家尚扬先生评价Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画:Gulistan古丽斯坦的很多绘画从远处看是很模糊的,但走近看以后它里面的内容非常清晰,你离开它以后可以说这种刻痕就刻在你的心里,这不是简单的用明确的线条所能表达出来的,Gulistan古丽斯坦用她柔约的细腻的心灵刻画的非常聪慧,颜色是用的很少,笔痕用的很少,但留下的记忆却很深刻……

The respected painter Yang Shang comments on Gulistan’s paintings saying that:” many of her work are blurred when viewed from afar but very clear when examined closely. Her works, even though they have very few colors, very few lines, affect you and have great impact.”

WP0A4804-20150922-00724-2

Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术创作里有很大的部分是她个人的生命与艺术的对话关系。除了绘画、旅行和电影,音乐和诗歌是Gulistan古丽斯坦人生中的不可缺少的一部分。她认为,绘画是思想沉淀后的产物;而音乐与诗歌更感性、更灵动、更直接。因此她大量从音乐和诗歌中汲取营养,滋润内心,以获得理性和感性的平衡。Gulistan古丽斯坦有一首名为《心象》的诗,她写到:我试图用我的绘画表达,但却不尽能够,需要音乐和诗歌注入它更多的灵魂旋律, 我在自己的生活和艺术中寻找——寻找—— 我在寻找驱使我进行的心灵旅行。人们都将艺术视作心灵的图象,Gulistan古丽斯坦绘画艺术反映了她多方面的精神经历,丰富多元的精神生活和她所接受的多方面的艺术素养。

Gulistan’s process of creation incorporates many of her own discourses about life and art. Other than painting, traveling, and watching movies, music and poetry is integral to her life. She believes that painting is the aftermath of thought and music and poetry are more free spirited and more direct. Therefore, she acquires much inspiration and nourishment from music and poetry in order to reach the balance between senses and feelings. Gulistan wrote a poem named The Imprint of Heart in which she writes: “I try to describe with my paintings, but I can’t. I need more music and poetry to give my soul to my work. I search, I wander in my own life and amongst the arts, and I am looking for my motivations in this journey of soul. People see art as the visualisation of the soul and Gulistan portrays several aspects of her soul in her work.

WP0A4968_20150923_112149

Gulistan古丽斯坦之前有过很多关于“记忆”题材的系列作品,在谈到创作灵感时她说 “我用绘画完成《记忆的性质》记忆是人们相会的一种形式,艺术应该是帮助人们牵动一些记忆的思考,那些记忆中的气息,痕迹,空间,人类的心灵空间,记忆联系着我们的意识和经历。我一直关注时间、记忆、空间三个方面的问题,因为感觉时间和空间像经纬一样,能帮人们找到那个点,那个线索,人类逃不出时间和空间所编结的轮回之花,但是心灵可以放飞。我在自己的生活和艺术中寻找,我通过绘画、音乐、诗歌表达着,在这个变幻的空间里,用我的心灵去寻找智慧,这是我心灵力量的源泉。”随着时间的逝去,记忆变成一种追随。在Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品中记忆、时间,空间又是跨时空的、交叉的,它们都好像是穿插的、跨越时空的,就慢慢形成了她的《记忆的性质》系列。

Gulistan has explored the theme of memory in many of her artworks. When talking about creativity, she says, “I use art to bring people together. They connect us to remembrance and to realization. I always focus on three aspects: time, memory and space because I feel like that time and space is just like the latitude and longitude- we can always find the point using them. We cannot escape the lines as human beings, but our souls can. And I am looking for my escape through art.” As time fades, memory becomes another form of following. In Gulistan’s works, times and spaces come together, crossing each other constantly and are presented in her series of works The Essence of Time.

Gulistan古丽斯坦描写的那些值得记忆的物象,既是自我成长的踪影,也是人类文明曾经的繁华。是她从个人的故事里钩沉的消褪在时间里的人类文明记忆。其实,她描绘的那些时光长度早已超出自己生命的体验。和那些一味追赶后现代文化的前卫艺术家不同,Gulistan古丽斯坦老是躲开网络时代的图像侵袭。像追忆过往的时光一样,她的绘画语言也是在回归古典中探寻艺术的现代品质。她的那些微妙沉潜的画面,不仅始终弥散着欧洲中世纪的建筑、壁画等图形元素,而且汲取了早期文艺复兴湿壁画的绘制技艺,透露的都是那些冰冷的镜头所无法传递的只属于她的文化混血与品性人格。如果没有记忆,生命和历史都会失去时间的刻度。Gulistan古丽斯坦描绘的正是这种不断唤起我们生命与历史意象的记忆潜痕。她的作品呈现着绘画的过程,又永远处在过程之中,它们被赋予了生命一般,在唤醒我记忆中的经验,也在唤醒我去倾听内心最真实的召唤。抚摸着心灵自由纯粹的表达,再以静谧的姿态流进灵魂,画作始终流露出深邃的情绪,画面静的仿佛能听到自己与画面的对话,这种心境不是简单的怀旧感,而是对那些经过时间过滤的生命历程的审视。画面追求的是一种个人独有的精神气质,凝练,质朴,自由,冥想,空灵,内敛,是一个自由的灵魂所释放出来的气息,即无所不在,又难以找到具体的形式与载体,但又意味深长,是她心灵的图像。

Gulistan paints everything that deserves to be remembered, whether it is a reflection of her own youth or the once prosperous ancient civilizations. Her works depict ideas that far exceed her own life experience. Unlike many modern artists who seek post modernism, Gulistan tries to avoid digitalized pictures and so, to recall the past, her drawings refer back to the classical period. Her paintings not only incorporate elements from medieval European architecture and mosaic, but also encompass skills used in early Renaissance’s frescos. Without memory, life and history are forgotten, without any nostalgia or appreciation so Gulistan aims to evoke among viewers a respect for the past. Her paintings are always profoundly emotional, a monologue, with many human qualities: freedom, meditation and free spiritedness.

创作本身是生命潜能的发现

Gulistan古丽斯坦说音乐是除了绘画在我生命中很重要的一部分,音乐的属性是生命,关于音乐,所有的艺术都在不断地向着音乐的境界努力,它比绘画更加的难以捉摸。舞蹈的激情是流畅的,绘画是留下来得物质,在洗涤和沉淀之后。音乐能震撼我们的心灵,音乐只能用音乐的术语来讨论,音乐有它的独特效力,它在某种特定的环境下可以在极其短暂的时间把一个人的灵魂送上天堂。爵士乐是她即兴灵感的来源,巴赫音乐圣洁的灵魂是她的精神路线,拉威尔的钢琴独奏使她灵感的海波变得明亮,她把这些感受采集起来,来完成她的绘画作品,绘画找到了那被照亮的线索-绘画的美丽理由。流动变为凝滞,短暂变为永恒的同时,是一种时间的形态转化为空间的形态,记忆的体验和沉淀引领她进入—进入—就形成了画面的氛围……

Creativity is a discovery of human potential

Gulistan says that “music is a very important element in my life, apart from art. Music is more difficult to understand than art. Dance is transient, painting can leave physical results, only music is untouchable and yet can move human beings to tears. Jazz is Gulistan’s muse. Bach’s music brings her devotion, Ravel’s piano brings her waves of emotion, and she combines all these responses when creating her paintings. Therefore her work gathers all these elements into one single moment, which then becomes eternal.

艺术并不是呈现可见的东西,而是把不可见的东西呈现出来,它可以通过一种轻松的方式让我们来了解我们自己,它表达的就是个人的情感,给艺术家音乐家自由和力量让他们发出自己的声音,但是要求更多的个人以外的东西积累,它总是处于改变之中,他旋转着,移动着,在时间和空间中运动着,寻找着被照亮的的线索,寻找“情节”背后的蕴涵,在寻找和我们自己的生命息息相关的某种“真谛” 去寻找自己灵魂的旋律,在音乐旋律中她能深切的感受到“心灵的呼吸”……

Art is not to show things we can see, but rather to depict things we cannot see. It enables viewers to become more introspective. Art is always at change, between times and spaces, looking for the enlightened traces, and looking for our souls.Art does not exist to show things we can see, but rather to depict things we cannot see. It enables viewers to become more introspective. Art is always about interchange, between times and spaces, looking for the traces of enlightenment and looking for our souls.

建筑就是凝固的音乐,建筑是立体的诗

我们在Gulistan古丽斯坦的《欧洲的漫游》系列中看到很多有关建筑的作品,Gulistan古丽斯坦认为建筑就是凝固的音乐,建筑是立体的诗,建筑是存放躯体的地方,诗是存放人灵魂的地方,好的建筑本身就寄托了人的灵魂,是艺术,是诗,诗进入我们的心灵影响着我们的生活,建筑可以营造诗的意境,文化就像阳光,空气,水一样,是人的生命中不可缺少的,而且也只有文化的东西才能深入我们的骨髓,影响我们的生活方式,是人灵魂得以生存的必要条件。Gulistan古丽斯坦游移于绘画,音乐之间,她描绘着那不知疲倦的音乐的心,她在古典音乐中找到了安静,在爵士乐中找到了自由,她希望心灵的自由能走的更远,音乐温暖着她的心,敏感的琴旋温暖的弹拨着,灵感一片金黄,她把自己的生命用艺术的方式去完成。

Architecture is music made flesh, a three dimensional poem

We see many works of architectures in Gulistan’s Wandering in Europe series. The artist believes that architecture is musicmade flesh, a three dimensional poem. She believes that architectures houses poems, and poems house souls. Great architecture creates a poetic environment, essential to the creation of civilization and culture. Gulistan wanders between paintings and music, portraying her endlessly searching nature. Music soothes her heart and spreads warmth in her soul, which she tries to describe in her work.

WP0A4411_20150918_172849

   在Gulistan古丽斯坦的世界中,绘画是她的表达方式,音乐和诗歌是她的情感,电影、建筑是她的视野,旅行是她的自我反思,彼此交错而又融合……

In Gulistan’s world, art is her way of communication. Music and poems engage her emotions, movies and architecture broaden her horizons and traveling is her process of introspection. All these elements are essential for her in becoming an artist.

 

 

Gulistan古丽斯坦绘画艺术的生命意义   上海交通大学欧洲文化高等研究院/巴黎欧亚研究院生命艺术现象学研究中心

一、Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术生命的特殊性

艺术家的创作精神及其创作风格是艺术家本身的生活命运及其艺术经验的体现。Gulistan古丽斯坦的生活历程和她所遭遇的特殊命运,为她提供了得天独厚的优越条件而造就了她珍贵的艺术生命,同时也决定了她所固有的艺术风格。

法国现代性作家兼诗人波德莱尔(CharlesBaudelaire)在评论雨果的艺术作品时说:“我在艺术沙龙画展中,只是在维克多·雨果的绘画作品,特别是他应用中国水墨而创作的作品中,发现任何别的艺术家所没有的那种才华横溢的风格:具有生命力的作品流淌着活灵活现的想象力的运作流程,就好像把天上隐含的神秘景象重新呈现在绘画中”。

wechat_1476504813

Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品如同波德莱尔所说,“流淌着活灵活现的想象力的运作流程,就好像把天上隐含的神秘景象重新呈现在绘画中”,具有强大的诱惑力,将观赏者导入动人的韵琴悠扬的童话世界,并在那里品尝可以随时缓缓转化的审美快感。其实,真正的艺术作品,不应该是固定不变的形式结构,它应该包含丰富的反思性和再生产能力,浓缩着艺术家心胸中始终运动着的内在灵魂,同时又展示艺术家心潮起伏的情感波涛,并以艺术家特有的风格表达他的 生命意志及其审美欲望。艺术家的所有活跃的创作情感,就应该像萤火虫的闪闪荧光,既温暖了观赏者,引发他们的再生产的想象力,又能够激荡人们的超越情感,试图探索新的可能世界。对于一位至诚投入的观赏者来说,面对Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品,就会不由自主地沉溺于沁心温柔的韵律世界中,在艺术品迸发出来的动人旋律的伴奏中,悠悠然往来于过去现在未来的多维度时空之中。

一位艺术家要善于把自己的情感意志融贯入创作运动中,同时还要善于通过熟练而奇妙的艺术技巧,包括机敏地运用特殊的绘画语言,使作品成为自身内在情感的结晶 体,使之随时可以与他人对话,同时又频频复生和更新。这样一来,艺术家的生命力就融贯于他的艺术作品中,他的作品也因此而获得可以永远复生的生命力。

Gulistan古丽斯坦以认真严肃的态度进行创作,长期刻苦地磨练自己的艺术基本功,并用心地把自己的理想和情感引导画笔,将创作中的兴致意念细腻地融化在画笔的运作中。所以,Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术很自然地与她本人的身心优美相结合,又深深地隐含着她本人的个性,致使她的作品浓缩地象征着轻柔的生活舞姿,随时可以在观赏者面前以独有的神态重新翩翩起舞。

叔本华认为,唯有艺术,才可以引导人,走出纯粹只为认识服务、却又误导认识的虚幻的表象世界;唯有通过艺术才能变虚幻的表象为对世界的直观,超然于对象本身以及对对象的各种关系,使自己浸沉于审美的愉悦,并因而将人脱离悲观苦闷的状态,以愉悦的态度和精神状态,享受真正的幸福生活。观看Gulistan古丽斯坦的每一个作品,可以给予人赏心悦目的感觉,释放心中累积的烦恼和精神压抑,就好像亚里士多德说悲剧可以通过人们流淌的眼泪而冲洗掉心中的污垢那样。

二、Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术语言的特殊性

Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术生涯充满着神奇的情节和故事。Gulistan古丽斯坦的生活境遇,不但这造就了她独特的艺术,而且也淬炼出她的特殊的艺术语言。我们说艺术的生命性,并不是抽象的。艺术的生命性是很具体的,甚至是非常微观精细的。首先当然指艺术中隐含的生命运动及其活力,但同时也指艺术中呈现的特殊风格,也指艺术中使用的语言。

艺术家在作品中渗透着自己的生命风格。真正成功的艺术家都是形成自身生命风格的人。什么是风格?风格是艺术家自身生命在其艺术作品中的直接流露;它以无形的 氛围和精神力量,表达出艺术家创作的生机和情趣,是艺术家的灵魂的直接体现。但另一方面,由于艺术作品免不了都要借助于语言来表达,所以,所谓风格,实际上又是艺术语言的多样化游戏。艺术语言是一种无声的和形象的语言,曲折地表现在艺术作品的每一个细节中,也体现在艺术作品的整体结构中。艺术家往往是杰出的诗人,他们的精神世界乃是诗的海洋。正因为这样,将艺术家、诗人、思想家三位一体的中国清初画家石涛曾在一幅画上留下惊人的跋:“画到无声,何敢题句”。在石涛等人那里,艺术语言已经成为他们对氤氲流荡生命的至诚钟爱之盛情的自然流露。

奇妙的艺术语言具有引而不发的特征。这在Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品中尤其明显。艺术语言不同于正常的日常语言,它并不靠有声的或可见的形式,也不靠有规则的象征体系,而是由灵活的艺术技巧加以运作,以审美的韵律悠然舞动于作品中,融化在作品的各个部分,却又活跃地纵横交错在艺术作品的整体结构中。所以,艺术语言不仅不同于日常语言,甚至在不同的艺术家之间,也使用各自不同的艺术语言。这也就是说,艺术语言不像日常语言那样,过分强调语言的通用性和统一规则性。艺术语言偏于特殊性和独特性,它是以不同的艺术家的创作风格而异;不同的艺术家使用自己不同的艺术语言,他们的各自不同的艺术语言表现了他们不同的艺术生命及其特殊风格。在这个意义上说,艺术家要善于使自己的艺术生命及其风格渗透到他所使用的艺术语言,使自己的艺术品形成大家所认同的特殊性。

wechat_1476504807

Gulistan古丽斯坦善于使用自己的艺术语言表达埋伏在作品中的意蕴深长的意境,巧妙地将掺入程度不同的音乐性和诗性,使用富有弹性的飘逸柔和的笔触,阐发她的生命情趣和理想。

由此可见,风格与语言的关联性往往掩盖了两者之间的微妙差异性及其穿插性。在Gulistan古丽斯坦那里,风格与语言的关系并不是直接的,而是通过许多复杂的中介因素,曲折地在语言结构中表现出来。罗兰·巴特说过:“作家的风格固然通过语言表现出来,但风格本身并非语言。更确切地说,风格是通过语言表达,但风格不等于语言。任何作家如果满足于使用语言,那他还不是好作家。好的作家必须善于通过语言,但并不停留在语言上,而是在语言之外表现他的风格。语言是任何人都可以使用的。作家的特点是不仅仅使用语言,而且是巧妙地使用语言之外的各种‘中性的语言’,也即使用‘非一般人所使用的语言’,让自己的语言超越普通的语言之外,在语言中渗透着作家自身的灵魂、情趣、品味和爱好,使之成为作家内心世界的千种风情的审美表达”。

img_3648

风格往往自然地将作品中试图表达的语言,引向“他处”,即引向作品之外,引向作者、读者和鉴赏者的心灵内部,然后又把他们的心灵引向一个不可预知的可能的世界。正如罗兰·巴特所说:“作为一种自然,语言是在不给予任何形式的情况下彻头彻尾地贯穿于作家的话语之中。…因此,语言是在文学之外”(La langue est comme une Nature qui passeentièrement à travers la parole de l’écrivain, sans pourtant lui donner aucuneforme. … Lalangue est donc en déςà de la littérature)。但是,与此相反,一旦文学性文字显现出纯粹的形式的时候,面对这种虚空形式而引起的恐惧不安,又在不知不觉的情况下,引导文字本身设法寻求一种类似于自然秩序的新秩序;然而,这种由作家本人无意识地表现的新秩序,恰恰又具有社会和历史的性质。这就是所谓的‘风格’或‘文风'(Mais au contraire, à partir du moment oùl’écriture littéraire s’est manisfesté comme forme pure, l’effroi devant levide de cette Forme la conduit à constituer un nouvel ordre, qui est analogue àcelui de la nature, alors qu’il est pourtant entièrement social et historique,c’est le style)。

dscn4629

因此,文风是什么?罗兰·巴特又说:“文风几乎是在文学之外;它是一堆图像、一种语言口才和谈吐风格,一种词汇累积;它们源自作家的身体及其过往历史,并逐渐地演变成作家的具有自动化性质的个人技艺。因此,采取文风的形式,文风乃是一种自给自足的语言,它深深地隐含在作家的个人神话之中”(Le style est presque au-delà de lalittérature : des images, un débit, un lexique naissent du corps et du passé del’écrivain, et deviennent peu à peu les automatisme mêmes de son art. Ainsi, sous le nom destyle, se forme un langage autarcique, qui ne plonge que dans la mythologiepersonnelle de l’auteur)。文风向语言秩序导入一种历史动力,因为它在公共语言的文化平面上导入一直自然的深度(Le style introduit une dynamiquehistorique dans l’ordre de la langue parce qu’il introduit une profondeurnaturelle dans l’horizontalité culturelle de la langue commune)。

同样的,艺术风格并不禁锢在艺术品的框架中,更不是可以死板地归纳成简短的语词,因为它是在艺术之外,它是飘荡于艺术品内外的艺术家的生命韵律,既游动于艺术中和环绕在艺术周围,又来往于艺术家及其观赏者之间的“游魂”,往往在创作和观赏的互动中怫然侵入心扉,触动人们的创作热情和审美欲望。

视觉的智慧 The wisdom of vision 文化的智慧 The wisdom of culture

Gulistan古丽斯坦 用“寂静”来发声的艺术家,她的作品里充满了宋词的意境,混合欧洲古典文化的韵味、对生活有着充沛的感情,作品中流露出“音乐性和诗性”。

Gulistan is an artist speaking out with “Silence”. Her works are filled with the artistic conception of Ci poetry of the Song dynasty, combing the charm of European classical culture, having abundant feelings of life, showing the musicality and poeticity.

                                                                                                           

我在绘画创作中寻找着关于时间和生命的思考,寻找着神秘的遥远,在思绪的旷野里诉说着记忆中那关于时间的传说,记忆的性质、记忆中的肖像,时间和记忆就像一道光芒变得明亮与清澈,时间与空间时常在画面中交汇,空灵的意蕴里色彩透射出一种让人怀念或记忆的东西。

I am looking for the thinking on time and life in painting creation, looking for the mysterious distant place, telling about the legend of time, the nature of memory, the portrait in memory in the wilderness of mind. Time and memory are like a ray of light which become bright and clear. Time and space are constantly confluence in the picture. In the ethereal implications, colors convey a kind of thing that is remembered or memorized.

Gulistan古丽斯坦的世界里却不全都只是画。绘画只是她的表达方式,音乐和 诗歌也是她的情感之源,而她的所有情感的基础,却是对时空的思考。

Before I met Gulistan, it is hard to imagine that as a painter, it’s not entirely paintings in her world. Painting is just her way of expression. Music and poems are the sources of her emotion while the basis of all her emotions and feelings is the thinking on time and space.

在哲学的思考下,Gulistan古丽斯坦将诗歌、音乐、电影等诸多艺术门类与绘画融合,并给艺术创作以更完整的自由呈现。

Under the thinking of Philosophy, she combines all sorts of art categories such as the poems, music, movies with painting and presents the art creations with more complete freedom.
