邹跃进,关于《“图像转向:移动的社会主义”当代艺术展》的意义,图像转向——移动的社会主义当代艺术展,2006:
华庆的《寓言》系列作品,则以充满想象力的寓言语言,言说了当代人类社会面临的困境:人类文明的高度发达,不仅没有使人类从随欲而动的动物上升到真正文明的人类社会的水平,反而是人类的文明,如某些重大的发明和创造,导致了不同国家、种族、阶级之间相互残杀水平的升级,给文明的人类带来灾难性的恶果。
 
高岭,动物凶猛:艺术媒介载体的中国创造,动物凶猛——动物艺术的中国方式,2007:
华庆的绘画借用类人猿的形象或者半人半兽的形象,揭示了人类发展中的所谓“文明”、“进步”和“哲学”还有“思想”等等理性概念和说教理义对人的规范。他试图将人类溯源到没有阶层差别、没有理论和思想诱导的创世纪时代,在那个时代,人与人之间更多的是身体的交流,就像动物之间那样。这种愿望表明艺术家对人类社会几千年来在文明和理智支配下的自我膨胀的抵制和质疑。
 
5000年艺术空间,华庆艺术展,当代艺术新闻,2005:
圆明园的第一代艺术家华庆近期的新作“寓言”系列,似乎有意无意的在接触这些人类的本质问题,与现在时下中国前卫艺术作品对于现实政治、社会环境的关注、批判、质疑相比,华庆的这一系列的作品似乎有意对现实环境所产生的主题作了回避,而把质疑的对象,指向了人类文明的本身,强烈的把爱因斯坦众所周知的相对论公式放在了这个系列每张作品的不同位置,使最高人类的思维结晶与接近猿的形象放在一起,产生对比,提醒我们思考。更有一些血腥画面与E=MC的反差更把怀疑的对象指向了人类最终的生存目的。华庆画中也用了一些象征符号,有意识暗示人类文明、科学、政治、社会的各个层面,比如旗帜,我们大概也会把它们归类,与某种意识形态、政治理想有关的象征物,但华庆并没有用现实中的真实道具,比如某国的国旗或文革中的红旗等等,而是用了航海旗语的信号旗,则是更隐喻的方式,隐喻人的方向的迷茫和进一步退两步的困境。当然这种暗示会不会因为从现实生活的抽离而得到更广泛观者的理解,则需要更多的时间证明。
 
OSAGE GALLERY评论
In his Allegory of Human Being series, Hua Qing combines an image of a scarlet gorilla with Einstein’s Theory of Relativity and snatches of text from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other key inspirational texts as symbols of human learning and learning and achievement. But the animals are brandishing weapons or are playing macabre games of soccer with the head of one of their fellows as a ball and are painted in vivid red order to highlight just how thin our veneer of civilization actually is .These works suggest that once our humanizing elements have been stripped away, we are left in a rough, red-raw primal state. They have much of the same quality as the early propaganda posters published during both the First World War and the Second World War. But in this instance the bestial enemy that we are right to fear is us.
 
华庆:智者的教诲
如果说到回归,那么华庆的红色类人猿智者系列,把我们带到更为遥远的过去,那不是物理性的回归,而是寻找智者智慧的旅程。“我思故我在”,他对红色类人猿的描绘,都集中在那双目光冷酷、炯炯、智慧、深邃的双眼上,在华庆的画上那目光不是暗示类人猿向人类进化的阶段,而是逼迫我们重新思考一切的监督者的视线。
在华庆的全部作品中,《一个生灵的图解:爱、灾难、拯救、升华》(2006——2007)是长达10米的巨作,他向我们展示了史诗般的宏伟画面,这实际上是一个寓言,寓言本身是暗示在人类文明史中,有过那些不文明的阶段。面对这幅画我们会产生复杂的情感,画的副标题“爱、灾难、拯救、升华”是对主题的注解。
华庆的上世纪80年代最早进入圆明园的第一代画家,是中国当代艺术发展的历史见证者,他自己的画风和以前有明显的变化,这是在他游历世界之后,重新审视我们这个世界之后,决定用红色类人猿作为自己的代言人向世界的发言。
华庆不厌其烦地反复描绘红色类人猿,他的休止符必须是人类接受这种监督之后,但这只是一种假设。在这种假设没有成为现实之前,我想华庆不会停止红色类人猿的再生。华庆的作品让我想起诺贝尔文学获奖者威廉·戈尔丁(Williarn Golding1911-1994)的重要作品《蝇王》(Lord of the Flies),这是一部反映人类中“恶的一面”的现代寓言,他是对人类天真本性的沦丧提出的忠告。而华庆则是对人类展示一种终极关怀,这些作品都是关于心灵、生存、爱、生、死亡、神话、环境和自然原则的关系。

Hua Qing:Teachings of the Sage
Speak of “return” and Hua Qing’s Human Fable series would bring us back to the past into antiquity.We do not mean physically returning to that era,but to embark on a spiritual journey to seek the wise sage.”Je pense,donc je suis”(I think, therefore I am)-his painting of the red homo sapiens focused on those cold,bright,wise and deepest eyes.The stare was not an allusion to the evolutionary stage from homo sapiens to man, but to force us to contemplate again on all surveillance gaze.
Among his works,Illustration for A Living Being: Love,Disaster,Salvation,Sublimation(2006-2007) stands out as a prominent piece which is 10m long, depicting a majestic epic-like view which tells of an allegorical tale, hinting at stages in the history of himan civilisation which are against civilisation.The painting evokes in us complex feelings, which is well-annotated by the subtitle to the main theme “love,disaster,redemption,sublimation”.
Hua Qing was among the first-generation painters who stepped into Yuan Ming Yuan in the 1980s.He has witnessed the development of contemporary Chinese art.His own painting style has undergone significant changes as well. The change was brought about his tours around the world.He decided to review our world and use the red apes as his spokesman to speak to the world.
Hua Qing has tirelessly painted red homo sapeins, not stopping these paintings until man accepts such surveillance,but this is only an assumption. Until the supposition becomes a reality,I believe that Hua Qing will not stop recreating these red apes.His paintings remind me of Noble Prize Laureate in Literature,William Golding’s important work Lord of the Flies, which is a modern allegorical novel on the “evil himan nature”.While William Golding’s fable is an admonition about the loss of man’s innocence, Hua Qing’s fables show an ultimate concern for mankind which are all about the relationship between the soul, survival, love, life, death, myth and evironment, and laws of nature.
