一個人的城市- 許智瑋個展/Living alone in the city - Hsu Chih-Wei Solo Exhibition

台灣當代寫實藝術家"許智瑋"畢業於文化大學美術系、台南造形藝術研究所，多次參與悍圖社聯展，更於北美館展出和典藏其作品。
古典油畫技法表現當代電玩機器人。以機器人作為表現的載體，虛構一齣故事情節中的要角，再加以特寫巧裝的手法置入舞台場景之中，令人產生錯置夢幻時空的曖昧意象。他的「Neo-God」油畫系列就是結合酷愛的手繪質感和日本機械人模型，藝術家同時採擷次文化與藝術史的視覺元素。
許智瑋試圖賦予當代動漫圖像工業的元素(機械人、Cosplay)更深層的寓意，將圖像置入一象徵的遊戲情境中，轉譯及再製古典文本，突顯出ICON在認同與價值投射等本質上的矛盾，並以主角與場景之間的落差進行另類的並置結合。
許智瑋近年來的作品軟化古典風景作為背景，有時使用特殊逆光處理手法與透視效果，主角更為碩大的無敵鐵金剛和天使作為配角，這兩種符號所象徵的意義，讓畫面產生情境並更加強調對偶像符碼消費的憂慮，卻又無力反擊的情境。對偶像的崇拜而消失自我的認知，正如現代社會中人們的思想模式。近年來的「凌空」系列新作，畫面的張力更勝以往，寓意更為強烈，場景與角色的配置猶如置身於其中，深深被他的細緻度與畫面呈現的磅礡震撼所吸引。

Chih-Wei Hsu, a contemporary artist from Taiwan, graduated from the Departments of Fine Arts, Chinese Culture University of Taiwan and received his MFA at the Graduate Insititute of Plastic Arts, Tainan National University of the Arts. His numerous solo and joint exhibitions, together with the Hantoo Art Group, led him to obtain rare opportunities to have his art exhibited in the Taipei Fine Arts Museum and later to have his works collected by the Fine Arts Museum, and the Ministry of Culture, Government of Taiwan.
Artist Hsu's works are largely about robots and video games. Hsu manipulates robots as a medium to stage a scene on canvas, in order to create a spatial feature. His series of Neo-God is characterized by his preferred Japanese robots and animation, which build his own style in terms of historical and cultural languages. Thus, it is easy to discern the elements of contemporary animation and industrial surroundings, such as the images of robots and the scene of cosplay, in Hsu's artwork. Hsu constructs and juxtaposes those images by utilizing the selected images, transferring the fixed sense, and then interpreting a distinct connotation of those figures into a differentiated reflection of the icon.
Artist Hsu has recently applied traditional methods to depict the background in his artwork. He frequently utilizes the techniques of backlighting and perspective to represent the figures of Mazinger Z and angels in his works; those produce a new signified allusion and an unnerving concern for today's commercial civilization. His latest series of work, the Volley, signifies the strength of masculine power, the vigor of allegory, and the refined dominance of the entire stage of scenery through his succinct pictorial language.
