Press release 新闻稿

Beyond Boundaries is an exhibition of work by 24 artists of international renown with close working associations to two of the most important art institutions in the world; the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing (CAFA) and the Slade School of Fine Art, UCL, London. Timed to celebrate the centenary of CAFA, Beyond Boundaries highlights the historic contribution these two great organisations have made in nurturing artistic vision, arts education and the role of artists as educators.
超越边界 是一个有关 24 位国际知名艺术家们的作品联展,参展艺术家们来自并执教于世界上
两个最重要的美术学院:北京中央美术学院及英国伦敦大学学院斯莱德美术学院。恰逢中央美术
学院建校 100 周年,斯莱德美术学院建校 150 周年,此展览的举办亦是庆祝这两大美术院校在
艺术教育方面所作出的杰出的历史性贡献。

The Exhibition features recent work, ranging from painting to sculpture and to new digital media, by leading names in British and Chinese art; including Liu Xiaodong, Phyllida Barlow, Sui Jianguo, Dryden Goodwin, Xu Bing and Lisa Milroy. Co-curated by CAFA’s Guo Xiaohui and Andrew Stahl, Professor of Fine Art at the Slade, with artistic direction by Zhang Zikang, Director of the CAFA Art Museum, Beyond Boundaries is a dynamic sample of current artistic practice in China and the UK.
该展览聚焦于展示英国和中国艺术界知名艺术家包括刘小东,Phyllida Barlow,隋建国, Dryden Goodwin,徐冰及 Lisa Milroy 的近期作品,涵盖了从绘画到雕塑以及新的数字媒体等艺术形式。
超越边界 是中国和英国当前艺术实践的动态样本,由中央美术学院美术馆馆长张子康担任艺术总监,独立策展人郭小晖和来自 Slade 的艺术家 Andrew Stahl 共同策划。

The arts have traditionally played a vital part in cross-cultural exchange and during a time when the art discourse is evermore international. Beyond Boundaries focuses on the work of leading artists who have played a fundamental role as educators in both China and the UK and this exhibition opens up this process up to a wider audience.
传统上,艺术在跨文化交流中起着至关重要的作用,尤其在艺术话语越来越国际化的今天,这也是一个较好的时机去关注在两国既是重要的教育者又是领先的艺术家的作品,并将这一过程向更广泛的受众开放。
