内容提要
前一阵子,雅昌艺术馆的程莉给我接连打了好几个电话,说是“太阳山”艺术馆在“第四届深圳文博会”期间要办一个美术展览，而且马上就要印画册了。该馆馆长陈求之希望我能为画册写点文字。由于近来甚忙，加上听说“太阳山”艺术馆处在了大芬村，让我误以为是办一般性的艺术展览，便婉言谢绝了。程莉与陈求之显然很快明白了我的心思，他们在深圳美术馆举办“美国抽象艺术展”开幕时来到了现场，并当面告诉：“太阳山”艺术馆即将展出的是广州与武汉一批优秀油画艺术家的的作品。参展艺术家有郭润文、冷军、朱晓果、郭正善、王用家、陈子君等人。听说有这么多优秀的艺术家朋友要参展，同时又是一个很有水平的艺术展览，我便与他们两人约好要专程去“太阳山”艺术馆一趟，一者是要看看“太阳山”艺术馆的展览场地究竟如何，二者是要看看参展作品的照片质量如何。
令我完全没有想到的是，与大芬村所有的画廊都不同，馆长陈求之在承租了几户村民的房屋后，竟然投资五百多万元，按传统的徽式建筑修建了“太阳山”艺术馆。其格局富于变化，错落有致，疏密得当，品味极高，韵味无穷，流涟忘返。在大芬村可谓是鹤立鸡群了，也格外吸引人的眼球，竟致成了大芬村的一处文化景观。现如今，凡是到大芬村参观的文化名人与各级领导，都会到此一游。我们知道，深圳的大芬村一直是以营销低端艺术品而闻名于世的，做高端艺术的艺术家大抵不会与大芬村发生联系。这也大约是郭润文、冷军他们曾经极不想来“太阳山”艺术馆参加展览的原因。据馆长陈求之介绍，画家郭润文接到参展邀请后，犹豫再三后说道，要是你们馆不在大芬村就好了，那样我还可以帮你们很多的忙。不过，到后来，“太阳山”艺术馆那美丽的建筑、办馆方向，还有陈求之的为人之道让郭润文深深感动了。经他做工作，一帮子艺术家朋友方答应参展。这当然决不是一般艺术展览，其意欲打造高端艺术市场的做法，不仅对于“太阳山”艺术馆自身，就是对于提升大芬村的文化形象，乃至长远发展都是有着深远意义的，是极聪明之举。因此，我希望相关部门的领导与艺术界、收藏界、新闻界的朋友能对“太阳山”艺术馆的今后发展给予更多的支持！
正是从以上角度看问题，我还感到郭润文、冷军、朱晓果、郭正善、王用家、陈子君等艺术家，最终同意将他们的作品拿到大芬村“太阳山”艺术馆来展出，既是对“太阳山”艺术馆的有力支持，也是对整个大芬村的有力支持。因为，他们都是在当今中国油画界影响极大，且一画难求的艺术家。他们的参展足以表明：大芬村完合可以在打造高端艺术市场上大有作为！基于此，我要代表深圳美术界的全体同仁向他们表示衷心的谢忱与崇高的敬意。一方面要感谢他们为深圳人民提供了如此优秀的油画作品，并为深圳同行提供了学习借鉴的机会；另一方面，还要感谢他们对培育深圳大芬村新兴的、高端的艺术市场做出了杰出的贡献！其功德无量！
祝愿“太阳山”艺术馆今后能办更多高质量的艺术展览！
祝愿大芬村的高端艺术市场从此能迈向康庄大道！

Preface
Lu Hong
Recently,Cheng Li from Art Gallery called me several times,saying that the Sunrise Art Center would hold a fine arts show during the 6th China(Shenzhen)International Cultural Industries Fair and was about to print a picture album.The Center's Art Director Chen Qiuzhi expected me to write something for this album.As I was busy then and I heard that the Sunrise Art Center moved to Dafen Village so that I mistook it for an ordinary art show ,I refused the request politely.Obviously,Cheng Li and Chen Qiuzhi made clear what I thonght of quickly.They came to the venue of the opning ceremony of the American Abstract Art Show at the Shenzhen Art Museum and told me face to face,“Whan are to be showed at the Sunrise Art Center are works of a number of outstanding oil painters from Guangzhou and Wuhan,including Guo Runwen,Leng Jun,Zhu Xiaoguo,Guo Zhengshan,Wang yongjia and Chen Zijun,etc.”Hearing that so many outstanding fellow artists were to attend the show,and considering that this was a high-level art show,I agreed with them to take a special trip to the Sunrise Art Center to see what its exhibition space was like and the quality of the quality of the exhibits.
It was entirely surprising that different from all other galleries in Dafen Village,the owner Chen Qiuzhi should have built the Sunrise Art Center in a traditional Anhui architectural style at an investment of over 10 million yuan after leasing several villagers'houses!With a changeful,tasteful,charming and rationally designed layout,the Center became a big eye-catcher and cultural spectacle in Dafen Village.Today,every cultuarl celebrity or leader who visits Dafen Village would patronize this place.As we know,Dafen Village in Shenzhen has been known for marketing low-and artworks,and artists making high-end artworks would mostly not be associated with it.This is probably the reason why Guo Runwen,Leng Jun and the like were very reluchant to exhibit theit works at the Sunrise Art Center.According to the owner Chen Qiuzhi,after receiving the invitation,the painter Guo Runwen said hesitantly that if only your exhibition hall were not in Dafen Village,I would have helped you a lot.Nevertheless,the nice architecture and the ambitious mission of the Sunrise Art Center,and Chen Qiuzhi's way of conduct moved Guo Runwen deeply later.It attend the shou.Of course,this is never an ordinary art show.Its practice of creating a high-end art market has far-reaching influence on the Sunrise Art Center itself,and furhter on the cultural image and long-term development of Dafen Village.This is a very wise act.Accordingly,I expect leaders of competent authorities and friends from the art,collection and news communities to offer more support to the futuer development of the Sunrise Art Center!
I have also from the above perspective that by agreeing to show their works at the Sunrise Art Center in Dafen Village,Guo Runwen,Leng Jun and other artists supported both the Sunrise Art Center and Dafen Village as a whole,because all of them are very influential and highly pursued artists in China's oil painting community today.Their participation is sufficient to indicate that Dafen Village can completely do a lot in creating a high-end art market,In view of this,I'd like to express my heartfelt thanks to and great respect for them on behalf of the whole fine arts community of Shenzhen.I'd thank them for providing so good works to the Shenzhen people and opportunities of learning and experience sharing to Shenzhen fellows,and also for contributing greatly to the development of a rising high-end art market in Dafen Village,Shenzhen!this is a meritorious deed!
wish the sunrise Art Center to hold more high-quality art shows in the future!Wish the high-end art market of Dafen Village a bright future!
This is the preface.
