前 言
天空，神秘而迷幻;城市，洁净而旷远;建筑，宏伟而壮丽;雕塑，静穆而庄严。这是一个用视觉方式营造出来的精神国度，充满了各种理想化的模型，活着的人仿佛只是过客般的虚影，只有那些崇高的建筑和塑像是真实而永恒的。
1960年代出生的艺术家们，大多有着那段特殊的成长岁月所带给他们的集体主义与英雄主义情结，崇拜至高无上的健康和光明，胸怀纯洁无瑕的信仰和梦想，尽管有时难免困顿迷惑，有时被迫随波逐流，但内心永远眷恋着那难以名状的、失落已久的精神归宿。在欲望喧嚣、物质至上的今天，这样的境界也注定是寂寥而孤独的。
近20年来，唐晖一直默默地建造着他心目中的乌托邦，他混合了中国古典艺术、西方宗教艺术、社会主义现实主义和国际流行的卡通动漫等视觉形态，以优雅浪漫的手法持续地塑造了一系列穿越时空的艺术形象，把东方和西方，过去和未来，信仰和欲望融合成一个奇异的整体。
本次展览上推出的是唐晖近两年的作品，主题集中于对理想的广场、大会堂、塔楼、纪念碑等纪念性城市建筑的思考与设计，渗透出他对逝去的时代那种特殊精神状态的沉思，流露出追忆庄严时的无限怅惘。值得留意的，是他作品中极具当代性的东方气息，那是古老的中国文明在现代化进程中所应当表达出的自信和自豪。
愿这个特别的展览能够让今天的都市人意识到，我们的生存环境和生活形态还有另一种可能，一种更加高贵、更加唯美的可能。

Sky, mysterious and hallucinatory; city, clean and wide; buildings, magnificent and spectacular; sculptures, solemn and quiet. In such a spiritual kingdom created in a visual way and filled with various idealistic models, living people seem to be illusions like passersby, and only these sublime buildings and sculptures are real and eternal.
Most of the artists born in the 1960s have a complex about collectivism and heroism brought by that special period during their growth, admiring the sublime well-being and brightness, pursuing pure and innocent beliefs and dreams. Though sometimes encountering hardships and confusions, and sometimes being compelled to drift with the tide, they are always sentimentally attached to the inexplicable and long-lost spiritual destination in their minds. In the clamorous and practical present times, such a realm is destined to be deserted and lonely.
For the last two decades, Tang Hui has been quietly building a Utopia in his mind, mixing the visual forms of ancient Chinese art, western religious art, socialistic realism, internationally popular cartoon, and etc, creating a series of art images traversing time and space in an elegant and romantic way, and integrating east and west, past and future, beliefs and desires into a peculiar whole.
This exhibition presents Tang Hui’s recent works, mainly focusing on consideration and designs of commemorative urban building, such as idealistic plaza, assembly hall, tower house, monument, and etc, permeating with his meditation about the special spiritual mood of the elapsed era, and reflecting his boundless solemn nostalgia in retrospect. What’s noteworthy is the strong touch of contemporaneity in his works, which is the appropriately expressed confidence and pride of ancient Chinese civilization in the process of modernization.
I wish this special exhibition could enable the present urban people to realize – there is one more possibility about our living environment and living form, a more noble and beautiful possibility.
