李怒,毕业于英国皇家艺术学院雕塑系,获硕士学位,2015年荣获英国皇家雕塑家协会Bursary大奖,英国皇家雕塑家协会成员,现生活和工作于北京。

李怒的创作植根于日常,以自我经历和主观感受为媒介,表现对大环境的普遍性感知、个体的情绪波动和群体在宏观社会演变中的精神状态。他关注偶然、突发、当下的真实存在,反对技巧和形式,摈弃视觉上的单调以及现代主义后期艺术家追求连贯性、策略性和风格化的创作范式,探索装置艺术、当代雕塑、实验影像以及现场艺术等的各种可能性。其作颠覆纪实与虚构、再现和抽象之间的感知界限,在看似信手拈来的材料运用和不择手段的艺术表达之中,是艺术家犀利而丰富的艺术语言。它们是隐喻的、尖锐的、幽默的、诗意的和戏剧性的,且往往包含着多重含义。

 

Li Nu, graduated with an MA in sculpture from Royal College of Art, London, Li Nu won the RBS (Royal British Society of Sculptors) Bursary Awards in 2015 and is a member of the RBS. He currently lives and works in Beijing.

Rooted in everyday life, Li Nu’s practice captures personal experiences and subjective feelings and thus reflects shared sentiments of the broader environment, individual’s mood swings, and the collective mental state in the social evolution. Drawn to the accidental, the unexpected, the present rather than techniques or forms, Li resists visual monotony as well as coherent, strategic, stylized methods pursued by many Late Modernists, and explores instead the potentialities of installation, contemporary sculpture, experimental video, events, etc. He subverts the perceived boundaries between documentary and fiction, representation and abstraction, transforming seemingly unpromising materials into metaphorical, piercing, humorous, poetic, and dramatic expressions with multiple connotations.
