Reluctant Poster Art--I Ment (Middle)

3. The eye of sexuality

In Mr. Qiang's many works, there is an important element - the red dot, a red and bright red dot. He said, "The red dot is a visual element that I began to derive in the 1980s. It is also a spiritual element. It can integrate my design ideas and convey a wealth of messages through life."

As he said, the red dots that appear repeatedly in the works have become an important visual element and spiritual element in his design. Mr. Qi's amazing integration of red dots in different works and become the finishing touch for the finishing touch is surprising and amazing. In more than ten years, red dot has repeatedly entered his works. As a visual element, red dot is actually a center and focal point in the artist's work; as a spiritual element, red dot is the integration of the spirit of the artist in the work and break out.

The red dot itself is a meaningless symbol, but when it is with other elements in the work, it can have infinite connection and unusual profound meaning. The artist here is the red dot, and the red dot is the artist. This is the match between the artist's mind and the object, and the conjunction of the artist and others, society and nature. In Mr. Ruan’s “Love Nature” poster (1992), the red spots in the rice paper wrapped in layers of stone are not only natural wounds, warning people, but also serve as the eyes of the human conscience. Protect the environment and protect nature.

In the poster titled "The Japan IDEA Magazine Review" (1999), the red dot is "The idea is to express the spirit of creativity." At the same time, the red dot is the main element of the Japanese flag and symbolizes the Japanese concept of the magazine. , also pointed out that the magazine is based on the Japanese visual evaluation of Mr. Qiang's work. Similarly, a poster from the "Thirteen Artists of Nagoya Hong Kong Famous Artists" poster expressed this creative spirit.

The red dot in the "Hong Kong Buddhist Week" (1989) poster is both the Dharma and my heart. It shows that Dharma and people are always there. Dharma and my heart are always there. My heart is the Buddha Dharma. The Dharma is the heart of my heart. "See the Sex of Zen".

In addition, Mr. Qi’s red dot is also a mystery. “This quality is amazing and contemplative... This kind of quality contains rich emotions that can evoke the viewer’s thinking and association. The viewer brings him into the field of thought of the work.” (United States - Ivan Chermayeff) Through this beautiful and mysterious red dot of the eye, the eye of sexuality, I have realized that it has extraordinary significance.

4. Big and small

Laozi said: "If Dacheng is in short supply, its use is not a disadvantage. If Dayingruo rushes, its use will not be exhausted. If it is straight and straight, it will be large. If it is dazzling, it will be large. If there is a shortage of posters in Mr. Qiang's work, If Ruan and Ruonei's ink, brush, and pen strokes represent the wisdom of their life wisdom, they are great, they are big, they are straight, they are big, and they are big.

Looking at Mr. Lou's poster work, it is often eye-catching that it is the rhyme and ink that fluctuates through Changhong. “The pens and inks are not paintings, nor are they necessarily words. They are just ink-filled brushes that show graceful trajectories when they are carried away. Those from black to grey and even to wonderful shades make People feel the heart and soul of the oriental movement, reluctantly simple frame, posters designed to swim, although not strange, but there is a kind of dream, you need to double the question of Yiyi Sense.” (Tian Zhongyi Guangyu) Ink painting has become the most important expression and cultural connotation of Mr. Qi’s poster creation.

Incorporating ink and wash into the design is Mr. Kou's original creation, and the oriental charm carried by ink and wash is the basis for Mr. Chung's spirit. From the early "One Exhibition Society Exhibition" posters (1979 and 1983) to the recent "Chinese Characters" series (1995), "Freedom" series (1996) and "Nine and Nine Return to One (1999)" And give up. If we say that Mr. 1977's "Designing a Painting Academy Design" poster and the 1979 "A Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition" poster showed "no shortage" and "nothingness," then later and "free" series is a "majority." And "big brother."
