Social review
The era when the watcher pursues the spirit.
"When I am alone, I always feel that a person has other space worlds besides the same lifestyle as people. This is a world perceived by the mind. It is boundless and will always accompany you in a dreamy way. Is this the best part of life? It sometimes occupies all of me and makes me unable to extricate myself. One is passionate and the other is generate. "
This is the first time we met Xiong Huiming's monologue. Xiong Huiming, a very masculine name, but her appearance is so slim, beautiful and subtle.
Xiong Huiming was born in that hot age. After graduating from junior high school, Xiong Huiming, who was born beautiful, was selected to the literary propaganda team of the Provincial Electric Power Bureau. It was a special era of single-minded pursuit of spiritual needs People's thoughts are simple, and Xiong Huiming is no exception. When she is free in the team, she spends all her time writing poems and reading books. Because of her understanding of art and versatility, she was called "freak" by her teammates. At that time, a colleague in the team had many tapes of famous Chinese and foreign literature and famous Chinese and foreign songs at home. Xiong Huiming quietly borrowed them to watch and listen, and soon fell in love with reading and music. Later, due to illness, Xiong Huiming left the propaganda team and went home to recuperate. At that time, she found out all the tapes of famous Chinese and foreign literature and famous Chinese and foreign songs that she could find. Every day, she just reads books and listens to music. I remember watching A Dream of Red Mansions five times. For three years, Xiong Huiming lived in the plot of the novel, which was a gloomy but happy day. What Xiong Huiming didn't expect was that studying hard at this time laid the foundation for her later life. In the late 1970s, after the national college entrance examination was resumed, Xiong Huiming was admitted to the Fine Arts Department of Yunnan Art Institute for the first time.
Xiong Huiming said that his paintings are exactly the same as the emotions in his childhood, not by hard work, but by a feeling. Yunnan is a colorful world. My father is a painter and paints watercolors. The Yunnan scenery, the streets of old Kunming, Tong Yuan and Cuihu in his paintings are colorful. He likes to look at them since he was a child, and sometimes he helps to color them under the guidance of his father. During the days when he was ill at home, every day his brother and his friends would bring back to Huiming the figure paintings and small landscape paintings he sketched in Dianchi Lake and Xishan Mountain. In his brother's paintings, the sunshine on the plateau is strong, the objects are colorful, and even the shade of trees turns purple and gold. From then on, Xiong Huiming fell in love with painting and the sunshine and color of his hometown. Therefore, studying in the Fine Arts Department became Xiong Huiming's goal.
Out of his love for color, Xiong Huiming focused on western oil painting in his freshman and sophomore years. Later, he saw the painting "Badashanren" and was moved by the charm and blank space of Chinese painting lines. He switched to Chinese painting in his junior and senior years. Xiong Huiming studied under Yuan Xiaocen, Ding Shaoguang and He Neng. Near graduation, Xiong Huiming's basic courses have reached a certain saturation stage, and his enthusiasm for art has gradually faded. At this time, with the acceleration of reform and opening up in the early 1980s, foreign advanced cultural and artistic ideas and works poured into China. Xiong Huiming saw the works of a large number of famous painters such as Klee, Xia Jiaer and Monk, which shocked her. At the same time, several artists who are very mature in the art of painting academy and Yunnan painting circle have also expressed their impulse and enthusiasm for creation. The reform and opening up has given artists a good opportunity to create, and everyone is looking for the most suitable way to create. Ding Shaoguang, Jiang Tiefeng and other middle-aged painters in Yunnan developed a heavy color painting school in Yunnan. That is, when painting, first draw a line on Korean paper with a pencil or brush, and then paint it with gouache. It absorbs the advantages of Chinese painting and western painting, emphasizes charm and mechanism, and is bright and eye-catching and highly decorative. After seeing the first exhibition of Yunnan heavy color painting "Shenshe" held by artists, Xiong Huiming, who loves the mystery of western painting colors and the profound infinite charm contained in oriental painting lines, inevitably chose "modern heavy color painting", a painting method that got rid of traditional painting rules and let his style and personality gallop freely, and began his own modern heavy color painting creation. 1986, Xiong Huiming's work "Memories of Childhood" participated in the "Traveling Exhibition of Academic Discussion on New Figurative Slide Show of Southwest Art Group"; "Dream" series and "Plateau Image" were exhibited in Yunnan Art Museum in September (1989), and "Ten Exhibitions of Modern Painting" was held in Yunnan Provincial Museum (1990). Her paintings have aroused strong repercussions in Yunnan painting circles and attracted people's attention.
Xiong Huiming said, I love dreaming and fantasy, and I often have dreams with strange contents and pictures. Some dreams are like paintings beyond reality, which are very bizarre and absurd. There are many subconscious things in dreams. Dreams and fantasies are part of my life. I tried to convey my heartfelt feelings from dreams and fantasies. Therefore, I am willing to stumble all my life in dreams, nightmares and daydreams and forget to come back. When I devote myself to painting, the elements of music will flow from my heart and blend into my painting. Xiong Huiming is also an artist obsessed with color. Her interpretation of color is in place. Her light and natural painting style and clear and colorful colors are dazzling. When people fall asleep, she often weaves her own magical world alone, and the colorful aura is her deep memory of the color complex when she was young. As she said, "my obsession with color, I think it started when I landed." So there was the birth of Xiong Huiming's main work Dream Series.
In order to further enrich the creative genre and draw creative inspiration, from 1983 to 1989, whenever he had time, Xiong Huiming went to Xishuangbanna and Honghe to experience life alone and came to Tibet, which he had long longed for.
At Olive Dam, the most meaningful place in Banna. Strolling through the stockade and bamboo forest, all kinds of tropical plants show the most beautiful line combination. The air is filled with distant tender breath with primitive meaning, which makes people sleepy and dreamy. On the red clay plateau, Xiong Huiming felt that the sound of bamboo flute rising in the night sky with the bonfire seemed to come from the sky of nature, calling for the souls of mountains, water and creatures, and calling for distant memories that seemed to be carried in his mother's body. All life is truly pure and eternal. As soon as she entered Tibet, her heart was seized by a solemn desolation. The endless mountains and rivers flow to the end of the sky, and everything else indicates the existence of gods. Xiong Huiming is on the top of the mountain, stroking the scriptures carved on the boulder. Her heart was very pious, and she felt the will of God, and moved tears welled up from her heart. She marveled at this masterpiece of nature. Is this God's creativity? Therefore, the group painting "Image of Plateau" is like a voice falling from the sky, a lit bonfire, a bamboo flute in the night sky, a creeping river, wandering sheep, a holy shepherdess and a black girl from Washan. These abstract arts, outlined with strong black, red, yellow and blue, are the painter's inner feelings and the flow of life. It is with this eternity that Xiong Huiming's paintings have an expansive style that is no less than that of men in modeling strength and visual intensity. Under her brush, the pure beauty of women naturally adds some aura and life. She skillfully uses China's lines and western techniques to express freely. She said, I drew a series of plateau images. Water, dance, rhyme and totem depict the illusion that the heart returns to nature and blends with mountains, trees and atmosphere, trying to show the dynamic beauty, from vision to physical and mental pleasure.
The works with the theme of Yunnan minority women in the "plateau image" can be described as varied and varied. The women painted by Xiong Huiming have an inherent feature of women, while many men's women only look like women. This is exactly Xiong Huiming's understanding of life and spiritual world. Xiong Huiming's paintings are pure, far away from the real smoke, but very close to what we crave. People feel detached, empty, indifferent, lyrical and self-conscious.
In the 1990s, his works were exhibited in Yunnan Modern Heavy Color Painting Exhibition, China Yunnan Modern Heavy Color Painting Exhibition and Yunnan Painting School Art Exhibition, which were held in the United States, France, Germany and other countries. Xiong Huiming was warmly welcomed as a representative of the painting school in the exhibition of Yunnan painting school held in Germany.
In February this year, Yunnan Red Wine Co., Ltd., a well-known enterprise in Yunnan, bought seven newly created Yunnan modern heavy color paintings from Xiong Huiming in order to promote Yunnan national culture and enhance the company image.
