藝術(shù)是亂碼的游戲
                                                        傅榆翔/文
   在我眼里，向國華理性、平和、略羞澀。但他卻用玩火（香火燙畫），玩電（電鉆鉆亞克力板），再玩油（油畫）從事他的藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作。他早期用香火烙出“四王”的以點(diǎn)帶線鏤空的山水，后又用油畫再次消解“八大”山水的水墨圖式，從油畫的介質(zhì)中幻化出水的彌漫性和更多不確定的心理視覺元素。
   馬塞爾·杜尚曾說“藝術(shù)是所有時(shí)代每個(gè)人的游戲”。我認(rèn)為這是對向國華系列藝術(shù)樣式最明確的界定。在重慶黃桷坪藝術(shù)社區(qū)的糖酒庫里，向國華的工作室偏安一偶，對自己思考與執(zhí)行的藝術(shù)取舍始終獨(dú)立不移，甘于沉寂，幾年下來各種實(shí)驗(yàn)性藝術(shù)作品已有近七十件之多。尤其稍后以油畫降中國水墨圖像經(jīng)典進(jìn)行錯(cuò)位、挪移、形成亂碼的視幻游戲感，使畫面涌動(dòng)、漂移、弦暈，仿佛進(jìn)入晃動(dòng)的時(shí)間和空間，讓我們重新去審視思考并觀察我們?nèi)祟惸切┙?jīng)過沉淀與過濾后的“絕對精典”。
   一個(gè)藝術(shù)家異于另外藝術(shù)的是作品的整體信息，圖像的轉(zhuǎn)換借助那些經(jīng)典圖式被他消解在跨界語言的重構(gòu)上。其中《視而不見》系列選取透明亞克力板拋棄了更早皮紙的燙痕，透明的隱現(xiàn)使得觀看的不確定性再次依賴不同視覺環(huán)境和條件的偶合。生成新的意義和更多觀賞的可能。在破壞掉舊有傳統(tǒng)欣賞習(xí)慣，拓展新視覺觸及新領(lǐng)域的實(shí)驗(yàn)之路上，向國華已初顯他不群的堅(jiān)守與捍衛(wèi)。在這個(gè)時(shí)代，我們更應(yīng)關(guān)注留意那些始終真誠地面對藝術(shù)發(fā)展，始終堅(jiān)守自身藝術(shù)價(jià)值取向，默默無聞地執(zhí)著于藝術(shù)實(shí)驗(yàn)探索的藝術(shù)家，那些力圖在形式表現(xiàn)，意義生存方面超越古典繪畫及文人畫范式的自慰，溶入變革，修正與指正這個(gè)時(shí)代起伏的脈跳中來。
   一個(gè)時(shí)代的公共圖式或者藝術(shù)史留下的經(jīng)典作品其意義不僅在于給我們提供了欣賞的對象，更重要的是，這種圖式與形式的背后濃縮了那個(gè)時(shí)代的藝術(shù)趣味、文化取向和美學(xué)追求。智慧是與眾不同的體驗(yàn)，是豁然開朗的見地，是突如其來的啟發(fā)，是力透表象的反省。向國華的藝術(shù)正是恰如其分的闡釋。

Art is a game of messy code
Xiang Guohua is a little bit rational, calm and shy in my eyes. But he used to play with fire (pyrograph on the canvas), play with electric (drill acrylic board), and play the oil (oil painting) in his art. He once pyrographed Chinese painting of the "four kings”, after that he digested the ink pattern of Ba Da Shan, and releases the diffuse from the media and more uncertainty elements of psychological .

Marcel Duchamp once said "Art is the game for everyone every time. " I think this is a most clearly definition to Xiang Guohua’s art styles. He settle his studio in the nook and corner in Huang Jueping art base., in there he thinking of his own choice and implementation of art and has always been independent unwavering, willing to silence. A few years letter he has been done more then seventy experimental works of art. In particular, his digests classical images of Chinese ink which have been misplaced, removed as a sense of fantasy games of messy codes, so that the screen is surging, drifting as if broken into the rocked time and space. let us re-think and observe the absolute classic which are settled, examined and filtered by human.

What an artist’s difference from others is the overall information of art works and he digests images with those classic language .The series of " turn a blind eye " selected transparent acrylic panels abandoned parchment earlier, making a transparent view of uncertainty looming once again rely on the visual environment and conditions of the different coupling. So he generates new meanings and more imagines. Xiang Guohua shows his persistence and defend on the way to destroyed the old traditions and built the new appreciation of habits, develop new visual experiment in new areas. In this age, we should focus attention to those artists who face the arts has always been sincere, and always adhere to their own artistic values. and cling to explore the new art experimental .those who sought in the form of meaningful survival beyond the paradigm of classical paintings and amendment and correction this era .whose significance of common schema of an era or classical art is not only provided us with the object of appreciation, more importantly, this schema behind the style and form concentrated artistic taste of that time, cultural orientation and aesthetic pursuit. Wisdom is the unique experience, opened judgment, the unexpected insight and profound self-examination. Xiang Guohua’s arts is a appropriately interpretation.
