2011年3月5日在北京空间站将举办女艺术家李佳的绘画个展，这是空间站的“绘画系列个展”中的第二个项目。李佳的作品是出于一种生命的自然，在生命的流逝之中，所遗存下来的自然而然的痕迹。痕迹作为一种对于死亡的抵抗，成为艺术历史的开端。画面上，这些痕迹中有磨损、皲裂、脱落和黯淡，也在消逝的过程中完善其自身,以无心而为的存在作为对意义的抵抗。“逝”作为对于一切必然结局的揭示，一种悲悯的充满了创伤感的情感体验，如同李佳在作品中层层展开的女性主体视角的内心独白与情感肖像，充满了一种对于解脱的向往，亦或者是对丧失的无力。

当某件艺术品成为经典或固定为一种视觉符号后，作品本身的含义被阶段性封存。传统如何触及发展，是每一个希望与其对话的人都将直面的课题。在李佳的木板坦培拉作品中，女性对自身本体的内省表现得极为突出，生活场景、街景、花卉、鸟兽穿插其间，这些作品以“逝”为心理线索和内在逻辑，在空间站的白色展厅里自由呼吸。现世轮回的过往，历史的日常化剥离，时间遗留的痕迹，观念表现在对作品的分步处理中。作品在艺术家的手中被反复打磨，经历了复杂的手工作业。将当代人现有的观念与反省，置入一个多元的框架内考量，构建，解读，构成了历史与现实，传统与当代耐人寻味的关照。

Press Release: Fade Away-Li Jia's Solo Exhibition   Space Station is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of Li Jia, on 5th March 2011,this will be the second project of "The Painting Series" at Space Station. Li Jia's tempera works on wooden board came from life's nature,it left traces in the process of passing time.Traces as a kind of resistance to death are the beginning of art history. In the works, these traces are worn, cracked,shed off and in exlipse, they also improve themselves in the process of disappearing,resisting the inquirments into "meaning" through heartless doings."Fade Away" as an inevitable outcome for the revealing of all, and a compassionate emotional experience fulfilled with sense of trauma,is a yearning for liberation along with sense of helplessness of loss. Just like the layers in Li Jia's works implying women's inner monologues and emotional portrait.   When a work of art becomes classic or a visual symbol,it's own meaning is covered. How tradition develops concerns every one who wants to talk with it.In Li Jia's tempera works,the inner thoughts of women is impressive:they act as living scenes,city,flowers and birds."Fade Away" is the psychological thread and the inner logic of the works,they are breathing freely in our white space. The eternal return, the eclipse of history,the traces of time... expressed in the artist's producing process.All these works shown are made from the convoluted manual operations,they push the views of modern age into a multipolar frame,thus constructing the new tradition and reality,as well as the curiously inconclusive contrast between them.
