为充分把握和尊重文艺人才成长规律,在人才的发现、培养、推荐、展示等各个方面采取相应举措,上海美协从实际出发,利用现有资源,发挥专业特点,拓展思路、创新举措、搭建平台,为美术领军人物脱颖而出提供服务,为中青年美术人才的成长成才创造条件,推动上海美术事业的全面发展。今年协会和上海艺术博览会组委会共同主办2011上海艺博会青年艺术家推介展。“上海艺博会青年艺术家推介展”举办已有6年,今年首次重点面向上海本地艺术家,展览旨在推介上海美术界四十五周岁以下具有时代性、学术性、代表性和探索性的青年艺术家。经专业艺委会推荐、主席团审议、专家评选出29位青年美术家成为美协与艺博会重点推介和集中展示。
青年艺术家推介展作为艺博会重要板块,是推介青年艺术家的很好平台,这次推介青年美术家的作品形式多样,思维敏锐,角度各异,反映出年轻艺术家在追求形式表现的同时,更加关注鲜活的生活、关注高速发展的经济、社会给人们生活、价值观等方面带来的冲击与思考,从生活的源泉中汲取艺术的养份。既有表现当时当下情绪感动的作品,也有反映都市化进程中的困惑的作品以及直指人类精神生活的基本问题的作品,使得展览具有时代的敏感性、学术的探索性。上海艺博会这个平台已经比较成熟,我们与艺博会形成资源优势互补,为青年艺术家提供了学术和市场的双向坐标,也是一次有效的探索和尝试。今后展览将打造成为上海美术界每年定期举办的重要品牌展览。
