游於藝 • 游於心 • 游於痴狂 • 無法自拔的執念 - 上篇
Roaming freely in art, mind, and obsession – An inextricable infatuation-part 1
 游文富-雨云身朵-雲躲
We arrived in Zhushan township in late November. Our goal was not to pray for fortune at the land god temple, but to pay a visit to a special person – landscape artist Wen-Fu Yu. Due to his familiarity with the characteristics of local industry, he uses bamboo sticks and white feathers as materials in his artworks. His works include the large white mechanical paper flower “Blossom” in the Pavilion of Dreams at the 2010 Taipei International Flora Exposition, the installation piece “Spring Snow” on the lawn of the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, and the bamboo creation “Love Unlimited” at the CMP Block Museum of Arts in 2013. After all these years, the images of these works still impress. To see the creative workspace of the artist in person is truly an exciting experience!
在節氣小雪歲末,我們一行人來到了竹山小鎮,不是要到聞名全省的土地公廟求金,是要拜訪一位特別的人物─地景藝術家游文富老師,因高度熟悉在地的產業特質,以隨風搖曳的竹籤、白色羽毛作為藝術創作素材,在2010 年花博夢想館「綻放」的白色巨大機械紙花,以及台中國立美術館草坪上「春雪」的裝置藝術,到2013 年勤美術館「愛無限」的竹編創作,事隔多年驚豔的影像記憶仍令人怦然心動,能親臨游老師發掘創意的創作基地,令人期待!
 
游文富-當代藝術
On arriving at the studio of the artist, we discovered that its located in his home. There are various healing succulents in the garden, also a loyal dog who plays dead and rolls over when “shot”. The artist has also built an artistic dog house himself! With the studio located within the house, the artist is in constant contact with family members. The children are sometimes his source of inspiration. The predecessor of the Pavilion of Dreams was inspired by the combination of parts of toys belonging to the artist’s oldest son. The passionate and friendly Mrs. Yu laughed and said: “He often picks up our son’s Play-doh to create with, filling our children’s desks with his manuscripts or small models. Anything within our house can become an inspiration for him.” This attitude of not being afraid of being disturbed by family members has lead to a unique artistic life; more importantly, intimate time spent with the family means opportunities to create spring from every corner. Of course, the artist still works with a team in a warehouse near home for larger works.
當我們抵達老師的工作室,發現老師的工作室就是住家,庭院點綴著許多療癒的多肉植物,還有一隻砰砰就會自行配合演出倒下翻滾的可愛忠狗,老師還自行蓋了一座藝術狗窩!老師將工作室設在家裡,藝術家與家人不脫節,孩子有時候也是他創作的靈感來源,原來老師大兒子的玩具,就是夢想館的前身,從玩具的零件拿來做組裝產生了無限的靈感!情接待我們的游夫人笑著說:「他常常隨興的拿著兒子的黏土去做一些作品,把兒女的書桌都佔據成他滿滿的手稿或是小模型,我們家任何東西都會變成他創作的來源。」原來不怕被家人打擾反而有了更不一樣的藝術生活,最重要的是與家人親暱時光反而讓創意無所不在,當然大型作品老師還是在家附近設有一座倉庫才能順利與團隊協力完成。
水墨山水之羽毛,解讀生命中不能承受之輕
 
On entering the living room and study, works of the artist can be seen in every corner. Together with the warm-toned and colorful home decorations of Mrs. Yu, as well as the toys of the children, the view is of a man that loves his family. The artist served us tea in the products designed with his latest series; the mug displays Sun Yat-Sen, Abraham Lincoln, and Benjamin Franklin in New York, an exhibition held in the Tenri Gallery in the US during September. The artist slowly explained that: “This 2015 work is a combination of feather paintings and ink landscape paintings. The figures in this series are all from paper money, subtly hinting at the unbearable lightness and heaviness of life when viewed with power, money, and fame. A landscape is viewed close up, while a portrait is revealed from a distance. My concept of visual effects and viewing distance when creating land art is also applied in this work.” We touched the artworks with our lips, gazing at the artist’s signature on both sides, while the warmth of the mug transferred through our hands into our hearts. The charm of cultural and creative products is the ability they provide for individuals to experience priceless artworks. This series of limited edition works is currently only available in at the Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei (MOCA Taipei)
入門後客廳和書房,家的每個角落都看得到老師的創作品,加上游夫人暖色系繽紛色彩的裝飾,還有孩子們的童玩,一種就是渾然天成的愛家男人,老師特別用他的最新創作發展出的系列文創商品馬克杯,奉上茶香款待我們,這是老師九月在美國天理藝廊展出的江山系列之國父、林肯、富蘭克林在紐約,老師娓娓道來:「這是以羽毛畫、水墨山水相融出的2015新作,在系列中人物皆以鈔票上人物為創作對象,其創作意念隱隱道出權力金錢之名利之下,生命之重於泰山輕於鴻毛之關係。近看是風景,遠看卻是人肖像之趣味,亦以我地景藝術創作中,慣性對視覺效果觀看距離的想法。」我們以雙唇碰觸著藝術,凝望著兩側老師如水墨畫一樣的簽名,馬克杯的溫度透過手心傳遞到內心,文創的迷人在於可以近距離就能享有無價的藝術,目前這一系列限量創作商品只有在台北當代藝術館可以收藏得到。
