展览简介
十七世紀法國的天才數學家、科學家、思想家、神學家巴斯卡爾,在他的《沉思錄》中寫道:「讓人去思想大自然的崇高與偉岸吧…,人是不成比例的,人在自然中到底是什麼呢?從無窮來看是虛無,從虛無來看是全體,是無與全之間的一個中間項,他既看不到他從中而出的那個虛無,也看不到他深陷其中的那個無限…。人的渺小卑微,雖然只像是風中的一枝蘆葦,但卻是一枝會思想的蘆葦。」
延續巴斯卡爾對人性與自然之間的辯證和倫理關懷,是攝影家馮君藍不同系列作品中共同的主題。不論是《微塵聖像》系列借助聖經人物跌宕起伏的生命訴說,以辯證擺盪在自然與超自然、經驗與超經驗、神與魔之間的人性。《互為肢體》系列聚焦在互為異己(一男一女、一黑一白)的兩雙手之間,從陌生以至親密的互動,來思索吾人與他者之間無可躲避的倫理責任;那屬乎愛的生命任務。《草芥》系列以開闊的視野,引領觀者駐足于一片風行草偃的雜草,以暗示我們去默想人之於那威力無比的大自然整體。《道在萬物》則以一系列表徵出清教徒美學的靜物,以辯證物質與精神、肉身與靈魂之間的關係。
但不管是肖像、是肢體特寫、是風景、是靜物、是黑白亦或彩色,在馮君藍的作品中,恆常散放出一種古典的、內斂樸素的、耐人尋味的靈性之光;一種並不濫情,暖人心脾的溫度與厚度;一種誠懇、敬虔與謙卑的姿態。

[關於藝術創作 photography]
阿藍,作為一名影像藝術創作者,他的正職其實是基督教會的神職人員。阿藍的作品,用他自己的話說,除了是服侍上帝之外小小的興趣,更是他所以為之生為之死的信仰觀照。
阿藍的肖像作品逾越了客觀紀錄的層次,而或者可以稱之為「詩意的靈魂肖像」,以基督教人類為基礎,以單幅戲劇的形式,道出他獨特的人觀。按著此一人觀,他的作品反映出的人,不是浩瀚宇宙中一連串偶然性的巧合所衍生的意外,不是裸猿,不是欲望的主體,也不是文化的動物;卻是物質與神靈的揉合。是因著被賦予永恆意識而焦慮的有限存有。
阿藍的作品同時反映出他對時間和人類歷史的興趣;他的時間意識不是一個循環不已的封閉宇宙,卻是向上帝創造的終極性目的開放著的,而他的歷史觀,則以為歷史以一種隱晦和極端緩慢的方式啟示著上帝的臨在。
阿藍另有「靜物」、「肢體」、「草芥」三個系列攝影,同樣是反映阿藍作為一個基督徒的宇宙觀和人觀。 Stanley Fung as a creator working in Photo-Imagery Art, his vocation is a Christian clergy. More than a small hobby aside from the service to God, the work of Stanley in his own words, “is part of the religious contemplation”, from which he is born, and, is willing to die for.
The portrait work of Stanley has gone beyond the spectrum of objective depiction. These works may be seen as “poetic portrait of soul”, taking Christian humanity as its foundation, and constructing a drama within a single frame, to tell a unique view of humanity. It is based on this view of humanity that each individual in his work is not an accident derived from a series of contingent coincidence in the vast universe, nor a Naked Ape, nor a subject of desire, nor cultural animal; yet a coalescence of substance and divinity – an anxious finite being endowed with eternal consciousness.
Moreover, the work of Stanley reflects his interests in time and history of humanity. His time-consciousness is not a circulated close universe, but opens to the ultimate goal created by God; and history, in his view, is an obscure way in an extremely slow manner to reveal the presence of God.
In addition to the portrait work, Stanley has three more series: “Still-life”, “Members” and “Mere Straw” photography. Also reflects Stanley, as a Christian, his view of universe and humanity.
