处境尴尬

Actually, if we want to seriously discuss about 'Modernity', we'll find out that this issue has an awkward situation in China. Let's forget about the sociological issues and let's simply start from visual arts. The old generation of artists who brought western arts to China, actually brought along western classic arts academism that is just small part of western classic art, and it's far of being exhaustive. Furthermore, what they brought along went through many changes due to the contact with revolutionary realism and local culture. The result of this process was what was called "Modern Art" in China. After having arrived in China, a part of the western artistic academicism became "Chinese Modern Arts" and this misplacement still exists. Perhaps it comes from a creative misreading, however whether it has the capability of becoming an independent system or not, still remains uncertain.

事实上，当我们想认真的讨论"现代性"时，就会发现这一问题在中国有着极其尴尬的处境，且不谈社会学角度，从视觉艺术这个很小的角度切入，将西方艺术带入中国本土的老一代艺术家们带来的其实是西方学院派的艺术，是西方古典艺术的尾巴或被革命现实主义化了的西方古典艺术，而被带入中国本土后却被称为"现代艺术"，直至今日当代艺术在西方的学理支撑到了中国本土变成了被断章取义的只言片语，这其间"错位"一直存在着，或许这是一种有创造性的误读，但误读的主体是否具有独立消化能力的系统值得商榷。
