现场报道：意大利著名艺术家安德烈.基耶西于在3画廊举办中国首个展 Italian artist Andrea Chiesi holds his first exhibition in China at Being 3 Gallery
2015年9月19日，意大利著名艺术家安德烈.基耶西在北京在3画廊举办 《无主之城》 展览，这是安德烈.基耶西第一次在中国举办个展。
60年代出生的安德烈.基耶西 ，他自我成才的绘画训练发生在80年代叛逆的朋克和独立音乐时代。从那时起便开始了黑色及紫色的纸上水墨创作。随后，他开始了关于当代景观、时间以及记忆的油画创作。他的作品在方法上严格而精准。一些特别强调工业主题以及城市空间；另一些则黑白对比强烈，急速的从黑暗转向半透光的场景。他同时采用水墨及油彩，试图强调两者之间的差异：前者代表一个变幻且流动的世界，而后者代表一个形而上且无尽的世界。
这次展览呈现出一个不断被人类构建和改变的城市景观。数不胜数的钢铁结构：工厂、工业区、港口、车站、停车场、建筑工地、摩天轮、郊区……人类的建造目的在于生活的舒适与方便，却不想同时创造了城市的冰冷与严峻。城市空间的扩张蚕食心灵的空间，工业化的熙熙攘攘挤压人的独特存在。宏伟当代城市景观沦为无主之城。对安德烈.基耶西来说，当代景观的变迁反映了人类的存在和受社会影响的历史记忆：劳动、罢工、重工业、环境破坏、肮脏、强占、被遗弃的地方等等，同时也指向未来的走向。
与此同时，安德烈.基耶西也构建出一个崭新的空间，当代景观的“桃花源”。通过减法改变真实结构，抑或恰恰相反，通过增加线条，变幻视角，把空间的纵度推向无穷无尽的阈值、相互缠结却严谨有序的坚持结构。这是一个位于东方的“禅”和西方的“纯粹痴迷”中间的一个结构，一个属于他和懂得他的人们的心灵世界。
这次展览将持续到10月19日。
Being 3 Gallery is very pleased to present Italian artist Andrea Chiesi’s solo exhibition "City Of God" on September 19th, 2015 and this is Andrea Chiesi’s first solo exhibition in China.
Born in Modena on the 6th November 1966, Andrea Chiesi was self-taught and trained in the counter-culture of early 80’s punk and independent music. He began drawing for independent fanzines and making exhibition in social centres. The works from this period were created using black and violet inks on paper. The characters, figures and spaces represented were connected to the particular culture environment he used to attend. Later he has started a research about contemporary landscapes, time and memory using a strict and careful oil painting that sometimes enhances industrial subjects or urban spaces, but others creates strong black and white contracts thanks to a fast transition from darkness to a half –light situation. The use of ink in drawings and the oil painting technique are carried on simultaneously and it helps to pay attention to the differences between the two worlds: a shifting and fluent universe the first, a metaphysical and timeless on the latter.
The exhibition presents a constantly constructing and changing urban landscape by humans. There are numerous steel structures: factories, industrial areas, ports, railway stations, parking lots, construction sites, Ferris wheel and suburb … For humans, the aim of building these constructions was to make their lives more comfortable and convenient, but on contrary, it has created a cold and grim city. Urban space expansion encroached people’s mind and the industrialized bustling crowds squeezed their existence. The magnificent contemporary urban landscape reduced to a city attended. For Andrea Chiesi, the transformation of a contemporary landscape reflects human existence and historical memory by the social impacts: labor, strikes, heavy industry, environmental destruction, dirty, seizure, abandoned places, and so on, simultaneously pointing to the future direction.
Meanwhile, Andre Chiesi has also constructed a new space, a contemporary landscape of "paradise." By deducting the real structures, or on the contrary, by increasing the line, changing the perspectives in which the degree of vertical space has been pushed to an endless threshold, a structure that is entangled but disciplined. It is a structure exists between the east "Zen" and the West "pure obsession" , a spiritual world belongs to him and people who understand him.
The exhibition will continue until October 19th.
