1937年⽣于江苏南通,1962年毕业于中央美术学院油画系董希⽂⼯作室。1979年创建中央美术学院壁画系,同年以云南⻄双版纳的线描和⾸都机场《泼⽔节——⽣命的赞歌》⼤型壁画引起美术界与思想界的轰动。1982年应邀访美,任教于塔夫茨⼤学、哈佛⼤学等⾼校,期间创作⼤以⽔墨为媒介的作品,激活了⽔墨固有的流动性和渗透性,以强劲的能进⾏着绘画的书写。1996年应邀回国,任教于中央美术学院。晚年回到了⼤⻛景的油画创作中,⾄今保持着旺盛的创作状态。
袁运⽣的艺术探索伴随着中国社会的时代变迁,与当下⾯临的⽂化语境相互回应,由此构成了其各时期尤为丰富多元的图景。他以传统为根基,⼏⼗年中持续进⾏着现代性的个⼈化实践,在与时代的强烈对撞中呈现出纯粹的强度和⼒。袁运⽣的创作持续不变地在讨论⽣命,对他来说,⽣命不是同外在之物对抗的⼒,相反,⽣命是⾃身内在的⼒与⼒冲突的舞台剧场。
Born in 1937 in Nantong, Jiangsu Province. He graduated from the Oil Painting Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1962 under the guidance of Dong Xiwen. In 1979, he established the Mural Department at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. That same year, his line drawings in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, and the large-scale mural "Water-Splashing Festival—An Ode to Life" at the Capital Airport caused a sensation in the art and intellectual circles. In 1982, he was invited to the United States, where he taught at Tufts University, Harvard University, and other institutions, during which time he created numerous works using ink as a medium, activating the inherent fluidity and permeability of ink, and imbuing painting with vigorous energy. In 1996, he was invited back to China to teach at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. In his later years, he returned to the creation of oil paintings on grand landscapes, maintaining a vigorous creative state to this day.
Yuan Yunsheng's artistic exploration has accompanied the changes in Chinese society, responding to the cultural context of the present era, thereby creating rich and diverse l scenes in each period. Rooted in tradition, he has been engaged in personalized modern practices for decades, presenting pure intensity and strength in strong collision with the times. Yuan Yunsheng's work consistently discusses life. For him, life is not a force in opposition to external things; instead, life is a stage where internal forces conflict with each other.
