2017 ART CENTRAL HK 
HUANG BO-HAO

21 - 25 March 2017

Huang’s works are interactive, an invitation to experiment with ideas, thoughts that are philosophical and innovative. Instead of falling into the usual thinking patterns, his refreshing style serves as the starting point of unknown territories for exploration and trials.

By Jason Chung Tang Yen

The gallery presents the work of Huang Bo-Hao, a young Taiwanese artist whose minimalist works on paper draw inspiration from Chinese ink painting and are made using natural minerals.

Born in Taipei, HUANG Bo-Hao graduated from National Taiwan University of Arts in 2004 and from Taipei National University of Arts in 2006 with a master’s degree in Fine Arts, now is working on his doctoral program in Tainan National University of Arts.  HUANG chooses water ink as creative medium which is a relative rarity as the moment, but he successfully has broken new grounds with this traditional medium.  Like an art of time, his painting involves the accumulating layers of brushstrokes and changes in life experience during the creative process.  Where time is often depicted in the rhythmic movement of the linear brushwork, is like seeing time and a floating life through a still frame.  In his artwork, the linear drawn traces with the conventional applications of brush in Chinese calligraphy, and with the sliding movements of the ink and brush are transformed into visuals. Those visuals enable the viewers to engross in the thickness, length, wetness, shades, aped, movements and turnings, upward strokes and pauses of the carefully constructed powerful lines that demonstrate profundity of culture and spirit of brush and paint itself.

黃柏皓(b.1981,台北),2004年畢業於國立臺灣藝術大學,2006年畢業於國立臺北藝術大學美術創作碩士班,現就讀於國立臺南藝術大學藝術創作理論研究所博士班。黃柏皓以水墨作為創作媒介,從傳統媒材表現跳脫出新觀點,其作品選取一種重複性的書寫筆調作為重點,猶如時間藝術,在創作過程中他的繪畫牽涉了筆觸的堆積以及生命經驗的變化,經由書寫筆鋒的提、按、頓、挫所繪成之線性痕跡,轉化為視覺圖像,而圖像讓觀者可專注於粗細、長短、乾濕、濃淡、遲速、使轉、頓提等顯露出筆墨嚴謹結構和力度的積累,藉此更完整呈現出之筆墨精神與文化深度。
