once remarked, “This is a pluralistic world. I do not belong to any particular school. Since you cannot define my work, perhaps we may simply call it ‘pluralism’ — or even ‘non-ism.’”

For Art Taichung 2026, Asia Art Center presents a selection of key works from across Li Chen’s career at Booth D02, including the weighty yet ethereal ink-black sculptures of the Spiritual Journey through the Great Ether and The Beacon series, the Ordinary People series, which reflects on human nature and the essence of life, Spiritual Journey through the Mundane World, and the Ethereal Cloud series, which evokes a distinctly Eastern abstract sensibility. Together, these works offer a concise introduction to Li Chen’s artistic trajectory and invite a meaningful dialogue between the internationally acclaimed artist and his hometown.

2026 #台中國際藝術博覽會 | #亞洲藝術中心 | 展位

亞洲藝術中心榮幸宣布，將於2026年台中國際藝術博覽會展位D02，以小型個展的模式，展出活躍於國際的當代雕塑家李真。曾於2007年成為首位華人受邀於第52屆威尼斯雙年展舉辦個展的藝術家；亦在2013年其50歲時受邀於巴黎凡登廣場舉辦最大型的個展，為歷年來最年輕的展出雕塑家，並於2024年榮獲美國以色列博物館之友頒發「雕塑藝術傑出成就獎」，作品《無憂國土》（1998）近年亦獲巴黎賽努奇亞洲藝術博物館典藏，2025年由法國歐洲權威藝術出版社 Éditions Cercle d’Art 為其出版大型專書。

李真的作品「既古典又當代」，呈現出多重多元的藝術面貌，難以被單一歸類，一如西方學者在Discovery《華人藝術紀》（2013）紀錄片所說，李真的作品太獨特而難以被歸納，在不同思想與形式之間自然生成，使來自不同文化背景的觀眾都能在其中找到感受與共鳴。本次展出成長於台灣台中的藝術家，首次精選部份作品與觀眾對話。

Asia Art Center is honored to present a focused solo exhibition by internationally acclaimed contemporary sculptor Li Chen at Booth D02 during Art Taichung 2026. Li Chen became the first artist from the Chinese-speaking world invited to present a solo exhibition at the 52nd Venice Biennale in 2007. In 2013, at age 50, he staged a major solo exhibition at Place Vendôme in Paris, becoming the youngest sculptor ever to exhibit there. In 2024, he received the American Friends of Museums in Israel’s Outstanding Achievements in the Sculptural Arts Award. His work Pure Land (1998) was recently acquired by the Musée Cernuschi in Paris, and in 2025, a major monograph on his work was published by renowned European art publisher Éditions Cercle d'Art.

Both classical and contemporary, Li Chen’s sculptures present a richly layered artistic language that resists singular categorization. In the Discovery documentary Chineseness (2013), Western scholars observed that Li Chen’s work resists categorization, instead emerging naturally through the intersection of different ideas and forms, allowing audiences from diverse cultural backgrounds to find resonance and connection within it. This presentation marks the first time that selected works by the Taichung-born artist are being exhibited in dialogue with audiences in his hometown.

📢 畫冊出版

#亞洲藝術中心 與 #郭彥甫 的合作，始於一種自然的發展與彼此理解的累積。多年來，我們持續關注他的創作，以及他如何在競技的語境之中逐步建立屬於自身的繪畫方法。「抽筋了！」是他首次於亞洲藝術中心的個展，也是一個階段性的節點。 #十年來，他在題材與心境上不斷往內收束，將原本外顯的運動場景，轉化為對身體感知與時間經驗的更深層探問。

回顧近年的創作軌跡，郭彥甫持續圍繞運動、奔跑與競技等主題展開，但此次展覽更顯現出一種由外而內的轉向。畫面不只強調場上的角色，更是回到身體本身承受的重量、內部的節奏，以及在高度加速的環境中如何自我調整。這種內化的過程，既是創作方法的累積，也是一種心境上的成熟。

這本畫冊除了呈現展覽作品與展場紀錄外，也收錄了作家/台北市文化局長 #蔡詩萍 撰文，以及郭彥甫的文字與日常影像，讓讀者得以從多重視角進入他的創作，並感受到時間層次的延伸。如此，我們或許能更貼近那種在奔跑與停頓之間反覆生成的感受，理解他如何在運動之中，尋找與自身對話的位置。

📢 PUBLICATION

’s collaboration with began through a gradual process of mutual understanding and organic development. Over the years, we have continued to follow his practice and the way he has steadily built a distinct painterly language within the world of sport and competition. ‘Cramps’ marks his first solo exhibition at Asia Art Center, as well as a significant moment in his artistic trajectory. Over the past decade, his work has turned increasingly inward, transforming outward scenes of movement into a deeper inquiry into bodily perception and the experience of time.

While sport, running, and competition have remained central to Kuo’s practice in recent years, this exhibition marks a more inward turn. The paintings do not simply focus on figures in motion, but return to the body itself: the weight it bears, its inner rhythms, and the ways it adjusts within a fast-moving environment. This process of internalization reflects not only the accumulation of artistic method, but also a growing maturity of mind.

In addition to the exhibited works and installation views, this publication also includes an essay by writer Tsai Shih-ping, Commissioner of Taipei’s Department of Cultural Affairs, as well as Kuo’s own writing and images from everyday life, allowing readers to enter his practice from multiple perspectives and to sense an extended layering of time. Through these materials, we may come closer to the feeling that repeatedly emerges between running and pause, and begin to understand how, through sport, he searches for a way to remain in dialogue with himself.

#廣東美術館 的「李真：大氣神遊」個展雖已落幕， #亞洲藝術中心 節錄分享兩場重要座談會中學者對 #李真 創作精神的學術觀察。

#王紹強 表示：「在當代雕塑的多元格局中，李真的藝術代表了一種東方範式的突圍。他既未停留於傳統的造像，也未簡單移植西方現代主義雕塑的形式體系，開闢出獨特而穩定的東方精神路徑，形成屬於自身創作的方法論。在跨文化語境中，他成為能夠在東西方文化結構之間自如轉換，並形成高度辨識度語言的華人雕塑家之一。」

#吳洪亮 則說：「作為來自臺灣的藝術家，李真的根脈深植東方，卻從未被地域、範式與傳統所束縛。他取禪之空靈、道之逍遙，不造偶像，不逐表像，只以氣韻為引，以心性為燈，讓每一尊雕塑都擁有自由呼吸的生命。更難得的是，他的作品裡藏著一絲不易察覺的幽默，一種穿越人性的歡愉，在沉鬱肅穆的黑色場域中，不顯張揚，卻能自發光亮，讓有些蕭瑟疏離的世界忽然變得柔軟、可親近。」

#皮道堅 補充道：「李真作品緊扣東方傳統『遊觀』審美與莊子神遊思想，不復刻傳統造像、不堆砌觀念敘事，以雕塑為載體把『氣』、『空無』、『心性』等東方哲學理念轉化為可感知的精神場域，扎實構建起中國當代雕塑的東方文化主體性。」

Though Li Chen: Spiritual Journey through the Great Ether at the Guangdong Museum of Art has concluded, Asia Art Center shares selected reflections from two important symposiums, highlighting scholars’ observations on the spirit of ’s practice.

noted that Li Chen represents a breakthrough within contemporary sculpture, neither remaining within the conventions of traditional statuary nor simply adopting Western modernist sculptural systems. Instead, he has forged a distinct Eastern methodology and a highly recognizable artistic language capable of moving fluidly across cultural frameworks.

observed that, as an artist from Taiwan, Li Chen is deeply rooted in Eastern thought yet never constrained by geography, paradigms, or tradition. Drawing from Zen stillness and Daoist freedom, his sculptures are not concerned with surface representation, but with spiritual resonance and inner vitality. Beneath their solemn black forms lies subtle humor, humanity, and an unexpected warmth.

added that Li Chen’s work is closely tied to the Eastern aesthetic tradition of contemplative wandering and Zhuangzi’s philosophy of spiritual roaming. Through sculpture, he transforms concepts such as qi, emptiness, and inner nature into perceptible spiritual fields, establishing a strong Eastern cultural subjectivity within contemporary sculpture.

從千年傳統到當代雕塑， #李真 的創作始終遊走於古典與當代、 #新東方精神 與國際藝術語境之間。

來自 #法國 的特派記者暨作者龔向華 Dimitri Bruyas 在分享會中提到：「李真之所以被視為一位當代藝術家，是因為他沒有失去他的文化，但是同時他也希望改變傳統的文化。」

而李真則拋出另一個值得思考的提問：「我們對西方藝術很了解，或是看得太少呢？而荒謬，是當代藏在自身古典文化土壤裡、平常走路不易發現，因此失去自信！」

或許正因如此，李真的作品從來不只是單純的 #東方雕塑，也不是盲目追隨西方 #當代藝術，而是在理解、質疑與轉化之間，形成屬於自己的語言。這種無法被輕易歸類的狀態，也讓來自不同文化背景的觀眾，都能在作品中找到共鳴。

分享 「千年傳統新當代－與李真走向世界雕塑的會談」 精彩片段，一起回到藝術家與講者的對話現場，重新思考：在西方的話語權之下，當代藝術是否也能從自己的文化土壤中生長出新的可能？

From millennial tradition to contemporary sculpture, Li Chen’s practice moves between the classical and the contemporary, between a New Eastern spirit and the international art discourse.

French correspondent and author Dimitri Bruyas remarked during the talk: “ is considered a contemporary artist because he has not lost his culture, while at the same time seeking to transform traditional culture.”

Li Chen, in turn, posed another thought-provoking question: “Do we truly understand Western art, or have we simply seen too little of it? Absurdity lies hidden within the soil of one’s own classical culture—something easily overlooked in everyday life, and therefore a source of lost confidence.”

Perhaps this is precisely why Li Chen’s work is neither simply Eastern sculpture nor a blind pursuit of Western contemporary art. Instead, it forms its own language through interpretation, questioning, and transformation. This refusal to be easily categorised is also what allows audiences from different cultural backgrounds to find resonance in his work.

Sharing highlights from From Tradition to Contemporary Sculpture: A Conversation with Li Chen — an invitation to return to the dialogue and reconsider: can contemporary art also grow from the cultural soil of our own traditions?

從千年傳統到當代雕塑， #李真 的創作始終遊走於精神與現相、古典與當代、東方雕塑與國際語境之間。

李真曾說：「這是個多元的世界，我不屬於任何流派、你們既然無法定義我的藝術作品，那麼我就便 “隨便” 說這是『多重、或是無主義』吧！」

西方學者曾在 《華人藝術紀》紀錄片中指出，李真的作品沒辦法被歸類，而是在不同思想與形式之間自然生成，使來自不同文化背景的觀眾，都能在其中找到感受與共鳴。

#國立臺灣美術館 陳貺怡館長：「李真老師是個希望他的作品能說話的人…為什麼他可以悠遊於傳統跟當代之間、然後東方跟西方之間? 其實他有一個比人家都強的地方，是他可以很自由。」

分享「千年傳統新當代－與李真走向世界雕塑的會談」精彩片段，回到藝術家自身的語言，聽李真談創作，也看見他的雕塑如何從古典出發，走向當代與世界。

From millennial tradition to contemporary sculpture, Li Chen’s practice moves constantly between spirituality and physical form, the classical and the contemporary, Eastern sculpture and an international artistic context.

As once remarked: “This is a pluralistic world. Since you cannot define my work, then perhaps we may simply call it ‘pluralism’ — or even ‘non-ism.’”

In the Discovery documentary Chineseness, Western scholars observed that Li Chen’s work resists categorisation, instead emerging naturally through the intersection of different ideas and forms — allowing audiences from diverse cultural backgrounds to find resonance and connection within it.

Chen Kuang-Yi, Director of National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts: “Li Chen is an artist who hopes his works can speak for themselves… Why is he able to move so freely between tradition and the contemporary, between East and West? Because he possesses something stronger than most — a profound sense of freedom.”

The short film features highlights from From Tradition to Contemporary Sculpture: A Conversation with Li Chen — returning to the artist’s own voice, and reflecting on how his sculpture moves from the classical toward the contemporary and the global stage.

千年傳統新當代－與李真走向世界雕塑的會談

我的藝術歷程即荒謬又神奇，
從千年古典中反判產生另類
的矛盾平衡；
那「創造性的模糊」是人性的
騷擾、理解、妙誤，一種東
方雕塑的氣韻與能量在當代
藝術中活靈活現。

～李真 2026、4、24 於座談會前

昨天的藝術分享會「千年傳統新當代－與李真走向世界雕塑的會談」，不只是一場對談，更像是一個重新理解李真創作的脈絡。 #李真 的作品看似來自千年古典，卻並非單純延續，而是傳統精神與當代之間，形成一種帶有張力的平衡——如他所說的「創造性的模糊」。

也因此，我們很難用單一風格去定義李真。他的創作裡，可以看到 #達達主義 的幽默與荒誕、 #超現實主義 的幻象、 #抽象表現主義（ #青煙）、心靈性的 #表現主義。極簡及 #具象 之間：李真說：「這是個多元的世界，你們無法定義我，那麼我們便說這是『 #多重主義』吧！」他從不單一追求潮流，他是自由的，也不被任何主義所框限。

在這些交錯的線索之間，李真將東方的氣韻、精神性與文化記憶融入雕塑，轉化為一種極具辨識度的當代語境。他的作品跨越文化差異，被不同國度的觀眾有所感受與理解，並在國際藝術舞台上被看見與討論。

謝謝李真老師、 #國立臺灣美術 館館長 #陳貺怡、特派記者、製作人暨作家 #龔向華 ，以及 #典藏雜誌社 總編輯 #嚴瀟瀟 的精采分享；也謝謝昨天到場的每一位貴賓，一起見證這場從千年傳統出發、與李真走向世界的分享。

From Tradition to Contemporary Sculpture: A Conversation with Li Chen

“My artistic journey is at once absurd and extraordinary.
From a millennial classical tradition, a counter-response emerges—forming an alternative balance of contradictions.
This ‘creative ambiguity’ is a disturbance of human nature, a process of understanding, a felicitous misreading—
through which the spirit and energy of Eastern sculpture come vividly to life within contemporary art.”

— Li Chen, 24 April 2026, prior to the talk

“From Tradition to Contemporary Sculpture: A Conversation with Li Chen” offered a focused look into the logic behind ’s practice.

Rooted in millennial tradition yet never confined by it, his work moves between tradition and the contemporary—what he calls “creative ambiguity.”

Resisting easy categorisation, Li Chen’s sculptures carry traces of , , , , and figuration, while forming what he describes as a kind of “ .”

Through Eastern sensibilities, spirituality, and cultural memory, Li Chen has developed a distinctive sculptural language that resonates across cultures and continues to gain international recognition.

Our sincere thanks to Li Chen; Director Chen Kuang-Yi of the ; Dimitri Bruyas, correspondent, producer, and author; and Yan Xiao-Xiao, Editor-in-Chief of ARTCO & ARTouch, for their insightful contributions. Thank you to everyone who joined us.
