 在当代中国艺术领域，一位从事美术教育，兼事雕塑创作的艺术家的创作经历愈发与艺术家为人自我定位的“低调”，然而事与愿违而受到关注、追捧。他的作品以无可争辩的感染力征服美育普及者和艺术鉴赏家。他作为初露端倪的实力派创作者，正在稳步走向世界的舞台。他，就是李象群。人所共知，从事艺术创作的基本概念是思想、是哲学、是历史存在的反映。李象群以他特有的"新人文主义"，表现在他所有的作品之中。他所表现的领袖人物、文化名人带给人震撼与感动，这或许是历史的记载延续。他对历史人物的超现实主义意念--《堆云·堆雪》所引发的轰动与思考，显示出艺术家思想的不可动摇。这位辛勤于中国名校高等艺术教育的园丁，责任感令人钦佩。而在艺术实践的雕塑大师，又为"跻身"798文化产业园的思考者。人们曾试图问及0工场艺术中心的概念，然而却无准确的答案。它决不是佛学的空或是虚无主义，也不是"一切从'0'开始"的简单数字游戏。作为了解他的人，我终于顿悟出这个"0"即是无极。这是大师的必然之路，他的艺术语言必然通向国际……

（如下择要摘录生平、创作年表）

李象群1961年4月出生于黑龙江哈尔滨，1990年获得鲁迅美术学院雕塑系硕士学位。曾先后在鲁迅美术学院和中央美术学院任教。现任清华大学美术学院雕塑系教授，院学术委员会委员，北京市人民代表大会代表，中国美术家协会会员，中国雕塑家学会常务理事，英国皇家雕塑协会会员，0工场艺术中心艺术总监。

1993年，其创作的作品《永恒的运转》获第三届全国体育美展特等奖；1997年，作品《接力者》获第四届全国体育美展一等奖。这两件奥运题材的作品被前国际奥委会主席萨玛兰奇收藏在国际奥委会博物馆中。2006年，作品《山秀》在英国参展时，前英国皇家雕塑学会主席，世界著名雕塑家安托尼·司顿斯先生盛赞："《山秀》是东方写意的雕塑风格与西方解剖学风格完美相结合的产物"。并以唯一的一个满票通过了该学会严格的评选，获得了"英国肖像雕塑年度展攀格林新人奖"。他是第一个获得该奖项的亚洲人，同时打破了55年来没有亚洲人获得过这一殊荣的神话。1998年和2005年，作品《巴金》曾先后被中国现代文学馆和中国美术馆收藏。2001年，作品《郭沫若》被收藏于中华世纪坛。2007年，《红星照耀中国》被列入国家重大历史题材项目。2009年，作品《我们走在大路上》作为主题展品参加了《中国美术世界行》的赴法展出。

艺术创作的同时，李象群在30余年的教学生涯中，培养出了大量的艺术及学术人才。为中国雕塑人才后续力量的补充，做出了巨大贡献。

作为一名艺术家，李象群从未忘记过自己的社会责任。2002年，当著名的北京城市名片--798文化创意产业园区面临被拆迁的命运时，时任人大代表的李象群，向人大提交了一份《保护正在发展的文化产业》议案，并多方奔走呼吁，为798文化创意产业园区的保留以及快速发展做出了重要的贡献。

李象群与他的艺术

雕塑艺术本质上是精神产品，它是雕塑家内心世界表象的产物。因此，精神产品的核心价值就应该引导社会中的人都“奋发向上、诚信友爱、充满活力、安定有序、并与自然和谐相处……”。清华美院教授、雕塑家李象群和他的雕塑作品，在社会与人群中正是起到了这种构建和谐社会的作用。李象群的雕塑作品，正应和了“和谐”这一鲜明的时代主题。

用主旋律的雕塑作品启迪人：李象群雕塑作品的选材一向注重时代感，他善于运用艺术作品反映一个时代的人物或相关联的历史事件。既如实的记录时代特征，又能站在时代的高度客观艺术的复原历史真象，让观赏者从中获得认知与启迪。尤其在伟人题材的创作上更体现了 “真”的原则,真诚地去创作,真实地来表现。他不仅查阅史料，更亲自下乡考察体验，使自己沉浸在所要塑造的角色中。正是有这样的忘我创作精神才使得我们能看到一个个更真实,更具个人特色，更多体现人性的伟人形象而非历史符号一样的伟人图标。在塑造《阳光下的毛泽东》他准确把握人物的神态、形体和历史背景，整体造型突出领袖的凝重，而在局部上对眼神的细节刻画透出慈祥可敬的人性情怀，眉宇的细节很生动地言明了明媚的阳光正在照耀。可谓惟妙惟肖、栩栩如生，令人肃然起敬,好像伟人真的在阳光下展开笑颜。李象群在创作伟人雕塑时认为，关注现实中人们如何看待人性的思维观念问题古至今日，人们习惯带着社会化的“有色眼镜”来看待“同为人”的“不同人”时出现的“身份光环”，富贵、贫贱、伟大、平凡等极端“身份符号”象征的差异。强调的是，从终极的人性本身的角度，身为“不同人”，该有着“同为人”的真实、平等、自由、尊严和权力。《布衣邓小平》雕塑的总体刻画在于邓老端坐在藤椅上手持一支香烟，以一位世纪慈祥老的姿态身着布衣，目视前方，其动感的细节部分都集中在手指香烟缭绕的烟雾上，淋漓尽致地揭示出他睿智思索而又曲折坎坷的一生。亲切可敬，平和质朴的平民形象，这就是《布衣邓小平》。这尊铜像在邓小平百年诞辰时，由胡锦涛总书记亲自揭幕剪彩于四川广安邓小平纪念馆。

用艺术雕塑作品感染人：无论什么艺术形式，只要把握住总体轮廓、布局，就算成功了一半,但其细节的处理得当、出彩，才能算成功地完成一件艺术作品。李象群的雕塑创作好就好在他写实的功底扎实，既能准确的把握住整体造型，又能在细节的刻画上细致入微、一丝不苟，其艺术造诣已达到炉火纯青、出神入化的境界。

中华世纪坛雕像《郭沫若》出自李象群之手，落成后得到专家和观众的一致好评。在创作之前，多次走访了郭沫若的家人，查阅了大量资料，确立了塑像之魂。核心聚焦点落在20世纪初叶中国文人普遍拥有的一种向旧制度挑战的精神气质，并结合郭老体征消瘦、偏矮和佩戴眼镜的几个特点，创作时将郭老原身长适度拉长，为郭老身着长袍，一只手拿着典籍，另一只手背在身后，以突显那一代文人的装束与傲骨。画家吴冠中先生到文学馆围着李象群的《巴金》像绕了三圈之后感叹道：“哦，伟大的作品，原来是最普通的人写出来的啊！”诗人王建民在《巴金》像前吟道：一位普通的爱讲真话的百岁老人习惯背着手行走着思考着探索着……。作为雕塑家, 塑出人的形象并不难,但是能够把这人物本身所带有的文化内在也完美地表达出来，不能不说是李象群将巴金雕像的精神实质塑造出来了，塑得活灵活现、神形兼备。

用伟大的雕塑作品鼓舞人：李象群的雕塑作品获奖，在业内和爱好者心里不再是什么新闻了。雕塑作品《山秀》在英国肖像雕塑年度展上获奖，确实引起不小的轰动，这个奖填补了亚洲54年空白。李象群的雕塑作品虽然在国内,在美国、日本、韩国等国家和地区屡屡获奖，但是在雕塑艺术兴盛繁荣的欧洲获奖实属难得。在《山秀》的创作上他首先智慧地选择了一个，就形象而言，在中国人看来具有古典美，在外国人看来具有中国特色的普通中国妇女作为原型。作品本身无论从哪一个角度观看都可以连成一条优美完整的弧线。这种塑造上的完美安排使得那一双标志性的丹凤眼更加突出地体现了东方女性的特有气质。这不仅仅是基于写实更是超越写实。如此看来奖项花落李象群也是实至名归了。

李象群的雕塑作品之所以超凡脱俗、不同反响，并跻身国内雕塑大家的行列。就是他的作品写实与夸张相结合，造型准确、精炼生动，既有细致入微之妙，又有粗犷奔放之势，使观赏者极易感受到他的那种物我两忘、出神入化的艺术境界。

全国各地广场、主题公园和主要街道两旁塑雕纷纷落成，不但为城市美化了环境，更重要的是提升了城市文化品味与内涵。李象群当选北京人大代表后，在各种会上不只一的宣传，世界凡是科技发达、文化繁荣的国家，无一座大城市没有标志性雕塑的，而这种标志性雕塑便是这个城市乃至国家的名片。美国纽约的“ 自由女神”、丹麦哥本哈根的“美人鱼”、梵蒂冈的“大卫”雕像等等数不胜数。同时他还列举了二次世界大战后，国外许多国家政府把注重城市的生存建设转到注重城市环境的改善上来，欧洲及日本、美国等国家在20世纪60年代立法，要求在所有公共建筑的总建造费中拿出百分之一的经费，作为城市公共艺术的创作和实施基金。根据这一实际情况，李象群也提交了相关的议案，想必这一题案将对推动我国城市雕塑艺术与和谐社会的发展起到划时代地积极作用。

特别是在他的家乡哈尔滨靖宇公园落成的雕塑《杨靖宇》，那迎风雪而挺立的杨靖宇似仍战斗在白山黑水间，挥动冲锋的手臂顽强地抗击着入侵者，谱写了一个英雄英勇奋战的传奇。这里已成为哈尔滨市一处进行抗日战争教育的基地。正是这些英雄人物雕塑为记录那个时代，留下了不朽的历史与艺术的形象。

Selection of Leading Talents in Social Sciences of Philosophy and Philosophy of Ten Thousand People Plan

Member of the British Portrait Sculpture Association

As one of the leading figures in contemporary Chinese sculpture, Li Xiangqun integrated the concept of "New Humanism" into his works to make his works have a strong artistic appeal. His portrait characters bring shock and touching. Sculpture becomes the record and continuation of history in his hands, demonstrating the powerful power of artist's thought. His representative sculpture works include "clouds and snow", "Red Star shining on China", "Mao Zedong in the sun", "We walk on the road" and so on. Many works have been collected by the National Museum of Art, the National Museum of History, the Museum of Modern Chinese Literature and the International Olympic Committee. He has won the first prize and the first prize in the third and fourth National Sports Exhibition, the second National Urban Sculpture Exhibition, the eighth National Art Exhibition, the New China Urban Sculpture Construction Achievement Award, the Ferrickry Best Works Award in the British Portrait Sculpture Annual Exhibition, and the Panglin New Man Award. At the same time of artistic creation, Li Xiangqun has trained a large number of artistic talents in his teaching career of more than 30 years. It has contributed to the continuation of Chinese sculpture strength.

As a representative of the NPC, Li Xiangqun has submitted many proposals such as "Protecting an Old Industrial Architectural Heritage, Protecting a Developing Cultural Zone" and made many appeals for the preservation and development of 798 Art Park. He paid attention to the protection of cultural heritage and put forward proposals, participated in the production and design of national gifts, and donated sculptures to educational institutions. Actively participate in public welfare undertakings and donate all donations to charities through auction.

Representative Works

In the field of contemporary Chinese art, the creative experience of an artist engaged in art education and sculpture creation has become more and more "low-key" with the artist's self-orientation. However, contrary to his wishes, he has been paid attention to and pursued. His works conquer aesthetic educators and artistic connoisseurs with indisputable appeal. He is steadily stepping onto the world stage as an emerging power creator. He is Li Xiangqun. As we all know, the basic concept of artistic creation is thought, philosophy and the reflection of historical existence. Li Xiangqun's unique "New Humanism" is reflected in all his works. The leaders and cultural celebrities he represents have shocked and touched people, which may be the continuation of historical records. His surrealist conception of historical figures, the sensation and reflection caused by "Heavy Clouds and Snow", shows the unshakable artist's thought. The gardener who worked hard in the higher art education of famous Chinese universities is admirable for his sense of responsibility. And the master of sculpture in artistic practice is also a thinker who "joins" 798 Cultural Industrial Park. People have tried to ask about the concept of 0 Workshop Art Center, but there is no accurate answer. It is by no means the emptiness or nihilism of Buddhism, nor the simple number game of "everything starts from'0'". As a person who knows him, I finally realized that this "0" is infinite. This is the inevitable way for the master, and his artistic language is bound to lead to the international...

(The following are excerpts of life and the chronology of creation)

Li Xiangqun was born in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, in April 1961. He received a master's degree in sculpture from Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts in 1990. He has taught in Luxun Academy of Fine Arts and Central Academy of Fine Arts successively. He is currently a professor in the Department of Sculpture, School of Fine Arts, Tsinghua University, a member of the Academic Committee, a representative of the Beijing People's Congress, a member of the Chinese Artists Association, a member of the Standing Director of the Chinese Sculptors Association, a member of the Royal Sculpture Association of the United Kingdom, and an art director of the 0 Workshop Art Center.

In 1993, his work "Eternal Operation" won the first prize of the Third National Sports Art Exhibition, and in 1997, his work "Relayer" won the first prize of the Fourth National Sports Art Exhibition. These two Olympic themes were collected by former IOC President Samaranch in the IOC Museum. In 2006, when the work "Mountain Show" was exhibited in Britain, Mr. Anthony Stones, the former president of the Royal Sculpture Society of Britain and a world-renowned sculptor, praised "Mountain Show" as a product of the perfect combination of Eastern freehand sculpture style and Western anatomical style. And the only full vote passed the strict selection of the Society, won the "New Panglin Award of the British Portrait Sculpture Annual Exhibition". He was the first Asian to win the award and broke the myth that no Asian had won it in 55 years. In 1998 and 2005, Ba Jin was collected successively by the Museum of Modern Chinese Literature and the Museum of Chinese Art. In 2001, Guo Moruo was collected in the world of the Chinese century. In 2007, "Red Star Shining China" was listed as a major national historical subject. In 2009, the work "We Walk on the Road" as a theme exhibition participated in the exhibition of "China Art World Tour" to France.

At the same time of artistic creation, Li Xiangqun has trained a large number of artistic and academic talents in his teaching career of more than 30 years. It has made tremendous contributions to supplement the follow-up strength of Chinese sculpture talents.

As an artist, Li Xiangqun has never forgotten his social responsibility. In 2002, when the famous Beijing City Business Card, 798 Cultural and Creative Industry Park, was facing the fate of being demolished, Li Xiangqun, then deputy to the NPC, submitted a bill entitled "Protecting the Developing Cultural Industry" to the NPC, and made many efforts.

Running appeal has made an important contribution to the preservation and rapid development of 798 Cultural and Creative Industry Park.

Li Xiangqun and His Art

Sculpture art is essentially a spiritual product, which is the product of the sculptor's inner world representation. Therefore, the core value of spiritual products should guide people in society to "strive for progress, honesty and fraternity, full of vitality, stability and order, and live in harmony with nature...". Li Xiangqun, a professor and sculptor of Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, and his sculpture works have played such a role in building a harmonious society in society and people. Li Xiangqun's sculptures coincide with the distinct theme of "harmony" of the times.

The main theme of the sculpture inspiration: Li Xiangqun's sculpture selection has always focused on the sense of the times, he is good at using works of art to reflect the characters of an era or related historical events. It not only records the characteristics of the times truthfully, but also restores the historical truth of the objective art at the height of the times, so that the viewers can get the knowledge and Enlightenment from it. Especially in the creation of great subject matter, it embodies the principle of "truth", sincerely to create, truly to show. He not only consulted historical materials, but also personally went to the countryside to explore the experience, so that he immersed himself in the role to be created. It is this selfless creative spirit that enables us to see a more real, more personal characteristics, more embodies the image of human nature rather than the icons of great men like historical symbols. In shaping Mao Zedong in the sunshine, he accurately grasps the character's manner, shape and historical background, highlights the dignity of the leader in the overall shape, and portrays the details of the eyes in part with a kind and respectable human feelings. The details of the eyebrows vividly show that the bright sunshine is shining. It's lifelike and respectable, as if a great man really laughed in the sunshine. When Li Xiangqun created the sculptures of great men, he believed that people were concerned about how people viewed human nature in reality. From ancient times to today, people used to look at the "identity halo" of "different people with the same people" with socialized "colored glasses", and extreme "identity symbols" such as wealth, poverty, greatness and ordinary. ” Symbolic differences. It is emphasized that, from the perspective of ultimate human nature itself, as "different people", it should have the truth, equality, freedom, dignity and power of "same people". The overall depiction of Deng Xiaoping's sculpture is that old Deng Duan sits on a cane chair holding a cigarette, wears cloth clothes as a benevolent old man of the century and looks ahead. The details of his movement are concentrated on the smoke of finger cigarettes, which vividly reveals his wise thinking and tortuous life. The cordial, respectable, peaceful and plain image of the common people is "Deng Xiaoping in Bouyi". On Deng Xiaoping's 100th birthday, General Secretary Hu Jintao personally unveiled the bronze statue and cut the ribbon at Deng Xiaoping Memorial Hall in Guang'an, Sichuan Province.
