　　《象外·域外》是居住在墨尔本的著名华人艺术家赵大陆的新画展。大陆是一位思想丰富且非常有成就的艺术家，他以其精美的肖像画而闻名于澳大利亚和中国。多年来，大陆一直在尝试绘画的表现形式，试图用油画材料以中国传统的黑白水墨画的风格来捕捉澳大利亚的风景。正如大陆所说，他的目的是通过他的眼睛审视我们的风景，试图从另一个角度捕捉当今世界新的视野。他的世界观深受他对东方哲学研究的影响，因此他的作品呈现给我们的是在这个国家很少见到的独特的美感、原创性和对自然的热情。《象外·域外》收录了大陆多年在澳大利亚生活以及他在中国生活时创作的此类作品。像这个国家的其他中国出生的艺术家一样，赵大陆是一位生活在中国和澳大利亚这两个世界之间的艺术家。1970 年代末，刚结束时，他是我夫人子音在北京电影学院的同学，大陆在美术系，子音在导演系。1979年大陆一起参加了著名的中国先锋派首展--北京星星画展，成为自由艺术家的参与者，在中国当代艺术的发展中星星画会被视为艺术史上的里程碑。本科毕业后，大陆曾在中央电视台做过短暂的美术设计，随后成为北京首都师范美术系教授，九十年代初去了欧洲直到二十年代初移居澳大利亚。他成为了肖像画和具象作品的大师，受到广泛的钦佩。我第一次见到大陆是在墨尔本2008 年 10 月他要回北京之前。在墨尔本他的工作室里摆满了精美的画作，包括斯蒂芬·菲茨杰拉德（Stephen Fitzgerald）的肖像，他是 1972 年高夫·惠特拉姆（Gough Whitlam）与中华人民共和国建交后我们的第一位澳大利亚驻华大使，（这幅作品现收藏于堪培拉国家肖像博物馆）和另一个约翰·克拉克，他长期担任悉尼国家戏剧艺术学院的院长（现在被塔斯马尼亚大学收藏）。这些精美的肖像中的每一幅都获得了阿奇博尔德奖的人民选择奖。随后的岁月里，我们多次与大陆和他的摄影师妻子小希在北京见面，通常在草场地后面大陆的工作室里。在此期间，他展出了几个主要系列的作品，包括在中国国家美术馆举办的名为“阅读记忆”的展览，该展览非常成功地捕捉到了年轻时情感但逐渐淡化的生活记忆。那个时期的农村生活。大陆现在又住在了澳大利亚墨尔本的郊外。他的家充满了他的艺术作品，在画布上和墙上都像错视画一样，他用双手和眼睛辛勤劳动，创造了一个美丽的花园。就像早期来到这个国家的英国移民一样，他们从不满足于来到这里，但当他们回到“家”时也不满足（阅读亨利·亨德尔·理查森的《理查德·马奥尼的财富》），大陆与他的根源脱节，被夹在两个不同的世界之间，两者都无法完全满意。作为一名技艺精湛、多才多艺的画家，现居住在澳大利亚干爽的乡村，大陆目前正在描绘想象中的中国记忆，一个向往他从未真正居住过的地方的梦想世界，一个中国寺庙、松树和茂密绿竹的世界，有时充满了五颜六色的想象的鸟类。或许大陆最“真实”的作品仍然是他的肖像画，无论是中国文化领军人物，有时还是澳大利亚人，尤其是他的妻子小希，无论他们身处何地，他每年都会为她画一幅不同的肖像画。大陆为我描绘过一幅超酷的肖像，既准确又完全是想象的。我喜欢它。INTRODUCTION THE TWO WORLDS OF ZHAO DALUBy Carrillo Gantner AC“Outside the World” is a new exhibition of paintings by Zhao Da Lu， a renowned Chinese artist living in Melbourne. Da Lu is a thoughtful and very accomplished artist who is best known in Australia and China for his fine portraits. For many years， Da Lu has been experimenting with form， trying to capture the Australian landscape in oil paint but in the style of Chinese traditional black and white ink drawings. As Da Lu explains， his intention is to examine our landscape through his eyes， seeking to capture today‘s world from a new perspective. His view of the world is very much influenced by his studies of eastern philosophy， so his works present a unique beauty， originality and passion for nature such as we seldom see in this country.“Outside the World” is a collection of Da Lu’s works painted over his many years of living in Australia as well as works from his life in China.Like other Chinese born artists in this country， Zhao Dalu is an artist caught between two worlds - China and Australia. He was a classmate of my wife Ziyin at the Beijing Film Academy （BFA） in the late 1970s straight after the Cultural Revolution， though he was in the designer program and she in the director program. In September 1979， along with Ai Weiwei， Dalu was a member of the select group of freelance artists who participated in the famous first exhibition of avant garde in China， The Stars Art Exhibition in Beijing， which came to be regarded as a milestone in the development of China‘s contemporary art.After graduation from BFA， Dalu worked briefly as a production designer in China Central Television and subsequently became Professor of Painting at Beijing Capital Normal University until he moved to Australia in the late 1990s. He became a master of portraiture and figurative works which brought himwide admiration.I first met Dalu in Melbourne in October 2008 just before he returned to live in Beijing. His Melbourne studio was full of superb canvases including portraits of Stephen Fitzgerald， our first Australian Ambassador to China after Gough Whitlam established diplomatic relations with the People’s Republic of China in 1972 （this work is now in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra） and another of John Clark， long term Director of The National Institute of Dramatic Art in Sydney （now in the collection of the University of Tasmania from whence John hailed）. Each of these fine portraits had won the Peoples‘ Choice Award in the Archibald Prize， though not the major award.In the years that followed， we met Daluand his photographer wife Xiao Xi in Beijing on many occasions， usually in his studio at the rear of Ai Weiwei’s house. During this period， he exhibited several major series of work including a very successful exhibition called Reading Memory at the China National Gallery which captured the emotional but fading memories of life as a young man on an agricultural commune during the Cultural Revolution.DaLu now lives again in Australia， just outside of Melbourne. His home is full of his art， on canvas and on the walls as trompe d‘oeil， and he has laboured hard with his hands and his eye to create a beautiful garden. Like early English migrants to this country who were never satisfied to be here and yet never satisfied when they went back “home” （read The Fortunes of Richard Mahony by Henry Handel Richardson）， Dalu is disconnected from his roots and caught between two different worlds， unable to find complete satisfaction in either.As a wonderfully skilled and versatile painter， now living in the dry Australian countryside， Dalu is currently painting imagined memories of China， a dream world of longing for a place he never really inhabited， a world of Chinese temples， pine trees and lush green bamboo， sometimes filled with colourful imagined birds. Perhaps Dalu’s most ‘real’ work are still his portraits， whether of leading Chinese cultural figures or sometimes Australians， and especially of his wife Xiao Xi for whom he paints a different portrait every year in whatever location they find themselves. Dalu painted a superb wintry portrait of me which is both fiendishly accurate and utterly imagined. I love it.
