自序
光线一直以来都是我作品最重要的元素之一。我认为：绘画如果没有了光，美感便不复存在。
此次展览共有25幅油画作品，其中有一半的作品是我的自画像，它们纪录了我这15年来的变化。这些作品中有我刚刚从美术学院毕业踏入社会时的样子，有我儿时的梦想，有我关于情感方面的戏剧演绎，也有我困惑和怀疑自己的记录，更有我满怀信心咬着鲜花的自信姿态。静物系列中有我关于父母曾经用过的沙发和行李箱的描绘，也有关于时间和生命的思考，我一直在寻找生活所带给我的思考，我也善于抓住能打动我的瞬间。
我迷恋于光线照射万物所呈现出来的光影效果，这些光源来自于我对于日常生活的观察，有烛光，有雨后的阳光，有灯光等等，同时我对于题材的要求也非常苛刻，如果它不能打动我，我一定不会去画它，某一个角度的美感，某一个瞬间的美，某一个故事的戏剧性，或者某一天我照镜子时候的感觉，我都会迫不及待用画笔将它们纪录下来，这比写日记更令我亢奋，因为我更喜欢视觉上的体验。
在十几年前，我受荷兰大师伦勃朗的影响，着手于对光线的研究，同时我没有忘记属于我们东方的美学经验，无论是我致敬伦勃朗，还是我纪录曾经的回忆，亦或者我画下某个穿越时空的幻象，我都在以一个东方艺术家的立场审视这一切。这种视角属于成长在这一片土地上的人们。同时我又竭力探索自己的独特的个人绘画语言。《大民国系列》《自画像系列》这两个系列都出现在此次展览中。除了对光和戏剧性以及中国元素的运用以外，我对我的观察视角的趣味性和人性的思考也做了很深的挖掘，比如《时间不是静止的》、《自传体-危险时刻》。同时我也关注社会的一些特定人群，比如《裹着红头巾的男孩》这是一幅关于斜视儿的真实写照，我希望通过红色的头巾的安排让他变的勇敢坚强，我希望有一种神性的金色关辉能够在他的身上出现，我希望一切都会在美好之下。其中有三幅作品是中国独有的旗袍，我通过红色、黑色、蓝色的处理，希望观众能感受到中国这种服装和东方女性的气韵之美。希望此次展览能够让丹麦的观众看到一个充满创造力的中国年轻艺术家的内心世界。

utobiographical Note
Light has always been one of the most important elements in my work. I believe that the beauty of a painting will be completely lost if there is no light on the canvas.
There are 25 oil paintings selected for the exhibition, half of which are self-portraits, recording my changes over the past 15 years. Among these works, some depict my younger days when I just graduated from an art college and started to work, some outline my childhood dreams, and some present my dramatic representations of emotions. The selection also includes the works which record the moments of myself in confusion and of self-doubt, and which note a gesture of self-confidence by describing a confident me with a flower dangling from my lips. In the still life paintings on exhibition are those of the sofa and suitcases used by my parents, and those telling my thoughts on time and life. I have been tracking the thoughts that life has brought to me and enjoy capturing the moments that touch me.
I feel obsessed with the light and shade presented by all things when they are lighted. I observed that in my daily life — that of candlelight, of sunlight after the rain, and of lamplight. However, I am very strict with the subject; in other words, if I am not moved by it, it will never become the subject matter of my works. Be that as it may, I couldn't wait to record it with my paintbrushes that the beauty I notice from a certain angle, or of a certain moment, that the dramatic nature I sense of a story, or that a flash of inspiration which hits me when I look into the mirror on some day. For me, just noting that down is not enough, because I get more satisfaction from the visuals.
I started to study lights a decade or so ago, influenced by Rembrandt, the Dutch painter. At the same time, however, I kept drawing inspiration from the Oriental arts and aesthetics in which I found the sense of belonging. The paintings, from those as a tribute to Rembrandt in, to those bearing my memory of the past, and to those describing a fantasy world in my mind, are all completed from the standpoint of me as an Asian artist, a view shared by all the people grown up in that land. In addition to the common-used language by Asian artists, I have been making every effort to explore the unique expressions of my own. A few of my works from "the Republican Period" and "Autobiography" series, which are the most representative works of my individuality, are also included in this exhibition. Along with the application of chiaroscuro and Chinese elements, I also examined in-depth my thinking on humanity and the fun value of my observing perspective. This is best illustrated by Time is not Static and Autobiography-Risky Moment. In my works, I also paid attention to special groups of people in our society, as shown in The Boy in a Red Turban. This work is a vivid portrayal of a child suffering from a squint. The arrangement of a red turban expresses my good wishes for him to become brave and strong, and as a holy golden glow is cast over him, so does I hope him to be blessed. Among the works on exhibition, three of them feature qipao, or cheongsam, a dress of Chinese origin and with distinctive Chinese characteristics. Painted in red, black, and blue, they are expected to give you a sense of the beauty of the dress and that of oriental femininity. I also hope that, through this exhibition, my Danish audience will be able to see the inner world of a Chinese young artist.

简历
陈承卫， 1984年出生于中国 浙江 洞头，职业艺术家，现居北京。先后毕业于中国美术学院和中国油画院。中国当代著名具象绘画代表人物之一。基于从小对神秘事物与戏剧性的热爱，他以一种非现实主义的切入点，吸收东西方古代的元素，将中国传统文化里的多种符号融入到当代思维的情景里，营造出独树一帜的具有中国韵味的绘画风格。这种具象的表达很好的将人物内心的感受呈现给观众。他坚持以传统的经典油画技法，用这个时代所给予他的反思，贴切的进行戏剧性的演绎，这种非现实又十分真实的距离感是他画面所特有的意境所在。尤其是他画面中对于光线的巧妙安排以及构图的独特，将人物的内心传达的淋漓尽致，这种与现代人不同却又能影射现代人的各种心理感受的画面，带给人们一种美的享受，一种追忆的美好感。他将自己沉浸在比较隐蔽的状态中，从中国油画的语境里寻找着属于他的独特情境，其作品参加展览无数，作品被中国大陆，香港，台湾，日本，新加坡，澳门，西班牙，俄罗斯，法国，德国，美国，英国，等地的重要藏家及机构收藏。

The Resume of Chen Chengwei
Chengwei Chen, born in Dongtou, Zhejiang Province in 1984, is a professional artist living in Beijing. He graduated from China Academy of Art and China Oil Painting Institute successively and is one of Chinese contemporary art’s famous figurative painters. From a young age, his love for both myth and drama was apparent. In later life, he managed to nurture and then merged this love with Chinese traditional culture into his own unique form of Chinese paintings. However, he takes inspiration not just from the eats, but also from the western style of art. Surprisingly, such figurative expressionism helps his audience to easily understand the characters’ inner feelings. He insists on continuing the traditional techniques of classic oil paintings and combines his socially diverse experience to present his feelings through paintings. Sometimes his works seem rather abstract, however they’re not the least bit inaccessible. Thanks to his ingenious arrangements of light and unique composition of paintings, the characters’ feelings are expressed to the full. Things depicted in his paintings, though different from modern society, still manage to reflect modern people's psychological feelings to some degree, and manage to conjure up positive emotions among his audience. He prefers to stay away from the public eye and tries to develop his unique painting style from Chinese oil painting history. His works have been exhibited many times, collected by important figures and institutes in the art scene, from mainland China to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Macau, Spain, Russia , France, Germany, the United States and the UK.
