Gulistan古丽斯坦

美国亚洲文化学院的报道：Gulistan古丽斯坦的创作灵感不仅仅来自东方文化，它也来自许多其他文明…以通向灵性、自由、创造性的纯正艺术，她作品中那种纯粹和优雅风格，是远处的一盏明灯…Gulistan古丽斯坦创造出了一种既属于自己这个时代又“属于所有时代”的艺术作品。Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画没有传统油画技法的束缚，没有流行题材的局限，亦没有视觉语言符号化的追求，她似乎是在一个无拘无束，完全自由的境界往来穿梭。这里，承载着她对生命的体验和感悟，在记忆的尘埃中时隐时现，它们是她心象的呈现。Gulistan古丽斯坦把自己融入画面，任由意念在流逝的时光中潆回，沉积为肌理与色彩的微妙变化，这变化最终蕴集为一个意念的时空。在这无限的时空里她捡拾着记忆的碎片，悉心拂去岁月的尘埃，倾听那无言的诉说，在心灵的最深处与之回应…于是她把时光制成记忆的印签珍藏在画面里，纤弱却不乏顽强，敏感而蕴涵丰富，真实而美好。Gulistan古丽斯坦的画被赋予了生命一般，静静的停留在那里，似乎在等待着被发现……

Gulistan’s inspiration comes from not only eastern tradition but also from many other cultures. As a free spirited creative artist, she creates her artworks with pure artistic focus and an elegance which suggests warm light shining from afar. Gulistan creates an unusual body of work that is contemporary but is also timeles. She is not restricted by traditional styles and skills nor by populist contemporary topics or a reductive visual symbolism. Her works are beyond boundaries, created with deep conviction, they encapsulate her understanding of life and are a metaphor for the self. Travelling through time Gulistan insinuates both herself and her individual colour palette into her works thus creating very special moments in time. These moments in are delicate yet tenacious, true and refined, charged with energy, waiting quietly to be discovered.

 

绘画是她的表达方式：一场精神的凝望

Gulistan古丽斯坦与生俱来的艺术天赋与神秘血统的她，有着独特的审美与创作语言，可以说是一位真正意义上的美麗智慧型的艺术家，受过全面良好的艺术教育，有着丰富的内蕴。她的绘画犹如她如诗般的气质，空灵自由而意蕴深长，有宋词的意境，混合欧洲文化的韵味，可以在恬淡的色彩与朴素的图式中与任何的生命对话，作品中流露出音乐性和诗性。她的画空灵而纯净，笔触飘逸而柔和，富有诗意，徜徉其中，使你的心不自觉的就会跟着她的画笔一起澎湃。她的画更像是一种媒介，在画中你可以和任何人对话，你可以从一个全新的视角重新认识这个世界。总觉得坠入她画中世界的这段时间，就像是赴了一场弥足珍贵的生命盛宴。我时常觉得她的画光用眼睛看是远远不够的，她的画中仿佛总有一道光，指引着你去找寻那条通往心灵深处的道路，也唯有真正用心灵去品味方能到达这一专属于心灵的仙境，一片心灵的宁静之地。

Painting is Gulistan’s way of communicating; her artistic talent and exotic heritage renders her gaze and her taste uniquely beautiful. She is a genuine combination of intellect and aesthetic the result of education and experience – her paintings are like herself, profound and spare. The colours and patterns have universal appeal and the artworks evince a delicate and spiritual feeling drawing the viewer through a journey of realisation, they present the world from a unique perspective. I frequently feel that one cannot fully comprehend Gulistan’s paintings merely using one’s eyes, but rather, one should look at them one’s heart in order to finally understand the stillness at their core.

她的画中有静的一面，亦有动的一面。在她的《海顿的钢琴与古丽的椅子》、《关于时间的传说》和《记忆的性质》系列作品中，仿佛住着一个天马行空的顽童，她将带着你穿越时空的界限，在时间的灰烬中驰骋，带你飞上艺术瑰丽的云端，去呼吸沉淀在画布上的自由的气息。看着她的画，散落的记忆在这一刻凝聚，一个个记忆中的画面也在我们的脑海中相互碰撞着，交织着，留下的是一道道生命的痕迹。无数条记忆的河流流过这些画，感动也在这一刻蔓延开来，感觉好像被一种无法言语的美丽包裹着。你在她的作品中可以感觉到乔托、弗朗切斯卡、荷尔拜因等大师那种信仰的痕迹，她是带着圣徒的信仰去画的，是她精神的凝望的写照。东方的审美崇尚意境，意境是需要空间、需要呼吸的，它流动而有生命力。她把这种东西融入到她的绘画中，让它更单纯、更准确、更本质。在光线不一样的时候，你会发现，那些画隐隐地往外显现，有种有生命的感觉。在她的画中“人类对于精神的凝望”，可以说是古丽斯坦绘画中一以贯之的主题。

Her work is both tranquil and moving. In the series Hayden’s Piano and Guli’s Chair , The Tales ofTime, and The essence of Time, one can feel the artist’s untrammelled spirit radiating from the surface as though an angel guides the viewer through time to witness the beauty of art from on high. Viewing her work reminds us of our past and the imprints this leaves, the paintings stir and overwhelm you, then wrap you in warmth. One can see the traces of Giotto, Francesca, and Holbein, Gulistan paints as a pious follower, with whole heartedness and devotion, yet she still leaves space in her paintings so they can breathe. Her works are floating, dynamic and throughout one can see the motif of ‘human spirituality’.

艺术只对能够在心弦上引起震颤的人传递出音符，时间和空间只为心灵而“存在”，也只因心灵产生意义。引用一段Gulistan古丽斯坦2012台北的个展，台湾的媒体的报道：Gulistan古丽斯坦她的诗意笔触，拯救了浮燥之心。在这个电子世界中，视觉与心灵的诗意栖居之所已无处寻找了，Gulistan古丽斯坦却用她的绘画作品捕捉了这种难以言传的诗意。在她的作品中，幽微的淡淡色彩、模糊的形象，若隐若现的勾线，就好象种种记忆，层层渲染过，又部分被抹涂过。她的重要作品系列如《关于时间的传说》、《记忆中的肖像》、《漫游欧洲》等，都洋溢着一股静气，仿佛就是一个精致的隐喻，神秘如宗教，拯救了这个世界找不到家园的浮燥之心。

Art can only move those who allow themselves to be moved. According to a report by Taiwanese media on Gulistan’s solo exhibition in Taipei: Gulistan uses her visual poetry to save heedless souls. In this world so filled with electronics, it is rare to find a rest place for the sight and the soul, yet Gulistan captures the viewer with her passion. Her influential works such as The Tales of Time, Memory of the portrait, and Wandering in Europe, etc, all express this inner calm which gives repose to the viewer.

著名的策展人尚辉先生这样评价Gulistan古丽斯坦：和大部分艺术家热衷于描绘现实不同，Gulistan古丽斯坦喜爱表现记忆，但她不是叙述记忆中储存的人物与事件，而是试图捕捉记忆的时间长度和温度……那悠悠的逝去的时光，才是她想真正揭示的世界。Gulistan古丽斯坦总是从此刻起笔而追溯远古。她画的是褪色，是岁月沧桑不时在打磨的那些楞角、光泽和触痕。对于一个画家而言，也许思想的深刻、观念的睿智，都比不了一层色调、一袭线条和一种笔触给予他的兴奋与温暖。Gulistan古丽斯坦最让我们难以忘怀的画面，不是她刻画了什么，而是那些温婉轻柔的米灰色调唤起我们的记忆。她能把这种色调把握得如此熨帖，仿佛是从记忆之维里抽出的旋律，幽微虚幻而带着淡淡的忧伤。

Famous curator Hui Shang comments that Gulistan “differs from most artists who are fond of depicting reality by focusing on portraying the past with nostalgia. She is not trying to describe a certain image or event in the past, but rather try to depict their warmth and distance. What she really wants to portray is the passage of time, Gulistan’s work is all about fading colors and the past that is not retraceable. For the artist, even the most profound thoughts and wise opinions cannot be compared with the colour tones which bring her so much excitement. Gulistan’s work is not about what she paints, but rather the nostalgic and warm feelings which the past evokes in us.”

著名的艺术批评家陶咏白先生评价Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画：她创作中的记忆中的肖像系列，记忆的性质系列是为了凝望精神，所有的物随时间消逝，唯有精神永恒，她的绘画投射出那种对神的敬仰和纯粹的圣洁，内容里包含的是精神的永恒，她的画在时间和空间穿梭来放飞自己的心灵。她从经验的生命体现飞跃到神性的生命体现，爱因斯坦曾经说过：一个科学家，一个艺术家最重要的是看她用没有神性的生命体现，只有有了神性的生命体现她才能成为正真的科学家和艺术家。

Celebrated art critic Yongbai Tao once said about Gulistan’s paintings that : “her works have a soul of their own. Everything fades with time, but their spirits remain immortal. That piety and purity reflected from her works are immortal. Her works transcend daily objects and become spiritual. even god-like. Einstein once said that the most important thing is to see whether a scientist, an artist, has the divinity of life. Only with that divinity can the artist become truly brilliant.   “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited; imagination encircles the world.”

 著名油画艺术家尚扬先生评价Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画：Gulistan古丽斯坦的很多绘画从远处看是很模糊的，但走近看以后它里面的内容非常清晰，你离开它以后可以说这种刻痕就刻在你的心里，这不是简单的用明确的线条所能表达出来的，Gulistan古丽斯坦用她柔约的细腻的心灵刻画的非常聪慧，颜色是用的很少，笔痕用的很少，但留下的记忆却很深刻……

The respected painter Yang Shang comments on Gulistan’s paintings saying that:” many of her work are blurred when viewed from afar but very clear when examined closely. Her works, even though they have very few colors, very few lines, affect you and have great impact.”

Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术创作里有很大的部分是她个人的生命与艺术的对话关系。除了绘画、旅行和电影，音乐和诗歌是Gulistan古丽斯坦人生中的不可缺少的一部分。她认为，绘画是思想沉淀后的产物；而音乐与诗歌更感性、更灵动、更直接。因此她大量从音乐和诗歌中汲取营养，滋润内心，以获得理性和感性的平衡。Gulistan古丽斯坦有一首名为《心象》的诗，她写到：我试图用我的绘画表达，但却不尽能够，需要音乐和诗歌注入它更多的灵魂旋律， 我在自己的生活和艺术中寻找——寻找—— 我在寻找驱使我进行的心灵旅行。人们都将艺术视作心灵的图象，Gulistan古丽斯坦绘画艺术反映了她多方面的精神经历，丰富多元的精神生活和她所接受的多方面的艺术素养。

Gulistan’s process of creation incorporates many of her own discourses about life and art. Other than painting, traveling, and watching movies, music and poetry is integral to her life. She believes that painting is the aftermath of thought and music and poetry are more free spirited and more direct. Therefore, she acquires much inspiration and nourishment from music and poetry in order to reach the balance between senses and feelings. Gulistan wrote a poem named The Imprint of Heart in which she writes: “I try to describe with my paintings, but I can’t. I need more music and poetry to give my soul to my work. I search, I wander in my own life and amongst the arts, and I am looking for my motivations in this journey of soul. People see art as the visualisation of the soul and Gulistan portrays several aspects of her soul in her work.

Gulistan古丽斯坦之前有过很多关于“记忆”题材的系列作品，在谈到创作灵感时她说 “我用绘画完成《记忆的性质》记忆是人们相会的一种形式，艺术应该是帮助人们牵动一些记忆的思考，那些记忆中的气息，痕迹，空间，人类的心灵空间,记忆联系着我们的意识和经历。我一直关注时间、记忆、空间三个方面的问题，因为感觉时间和空间像经纬一样，能帮人们找到那个点，那个线索，人类逃不出时间和空间所编结的轮回之花，但是心灵可以放飞。我在自己的生活和艺术中寻找，我通过绘画、音乐、诗歌表达着，在这个变幻的空间里，用我的心灵去寻找智慧，这是我心灵力量的源泉。”随着时间的逝去，记忆变成一种追随。在Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品中记忆、时间，空间又是跨时空的、交叉的，它们都好像是穿插的、跨越时空的，就慢慢形成了她的《记忆的性质》系列。

Gulistan has explored the theme of memory in many of her artworks. When talking about creativity, she says, “I use art to bring people together. They connect us to remembrance and to realization. I always focus on three aspects: time, memory and space because I feel like that time and space is just like the latitude and longitude- we can always find the point using them. We cannot escape the lines as human beings, but our souls can. And I am looking for my escape through art.” As time fades, memory becomes another form of following. In Gulistan’s works, times and spaces come together, crossing each other constantly and are presented in her series of works The Essence of Time.

Gulistan古丽斯坦描写的那些值得记忆的物象，既是自我成长的踪影，也是人类文明曾经的繁华。是她从个人的故事里钩沉的消褪在时间里的人类文明记忆。其实，她描绘的那些时光长度早已超出自己生命的体验。和那些一味追赶后现代文化的前卫艺术家不同，Gulistan古丽斯坦老是躲开网络时代的图像侵袭。像追忆过往的时光一样，她的绘画语言也是在回归古典中探寻艺术的现代品质。她的那些微妙沉潜的画面，不仅始终弥散着欧洲中世纪的建筑、壁画等图形元素，而且汲取了早期文艺复兴湿壁画的绘制技艺，透露的都是那些冰冷的镜头所无法传递的只属于她的文化混血与品性人格。如果没有记忆，生命和历史都会失去时间的刻度。Gulistan古丽斯坦描绘的正是这种不断唤起我们生命与历史意象的记忆潜痕。她的作品呈现着绘画的过程，又永远处在过程之中，它们被赋予了生命一般，在唤醒我记忆中的经验，也在唤醒我去倾听内心最真实的召唤。抚摸着心灵自由纯粹的表达，再以静谧的姿态流进灵魂，画作始终流露出深邃的情绪，画面静的仿佛能听到自己与画面的对话，这种心境不是简单的怀旧感，而是对那些经过时间过滤的生命历程的审视。画面追求的是一种个人独有的精神气质，凝练，质朴，自由，冥想，空灵，内敛，是一个自由的灵魂所释放出来的气息，即无所不在，又难以找到具体的形式与载体，但又意味深长，是她心灵的图像。

Gulistan paints everything that deserves to be remembered, whether it is a reflection of her own youth or the once prosperous ancient civilizations. Her works depict ideas that far exceed her own life experience. Unlike many modern artists who seek post modernism, Gulistan tries to avoid digitalized pictures and so, to recall the past, her drawings refer back to the classical period. Her paintings not only incorporate elements from medieval European architecture and mosaic, but also encompass skills used in early Renaissance’s frescos. Without memory, life and history are forgotten, without any nostalgia or appreciation so Gulistan aims to evoke among viewers a respect for the past. Her paintings are always profoundly emotional, a monologue, with many human qualities: freedom, meditation and free spiritedness.

创作本身是生命潜能的发现

Gulistan古丽斯坦说音乐是除了绘画在我生命中很重要的一部分，音乐的属性是生命，关于音乐，所有的艺术都在不断地向着音乐的境界努力，它比绘画更加的难以捉摸。舞蹈的激情是流畅的，绘画是留下来得物质，在洗涤和沉淀之后。音乐能震撼我们的心灵，音乐只能用音乐的术语来讨论，音乐有它的独特效力，它在某种特定的环境下可以在极其短暂的时间把一个人的灵魂送上天堂。爵士乐是她即兴灵感的来源，巴赫音乐圣洁的灵魂是她的精神路线，拉威尔的钢琴独奏使她灵感的海波变得明亮，她把这些感受采集起来，来完成她的绘画作品，绘画找到了那被照亮的线索-绘画的美丽理由。流动变为凝滞，短暂变为永恒的同时，是一种时间的形态转化为空间的形态，记忆的体验和沉淀引领她进入—进入—就形成了画面的氛围……

Creativity is a discovery of human potential

Gulistan says that “music is a very important element in my life, apart from art. Music is more difficult to understand than art. Dance is transient, painting can leave physical results, only music is untouchable and yet can move human beings to tears. Jazz is Gulistan’s muse. Bach’s music brings her devotion, Ravel’s piano brings her waves of emotion, and she combines all these responses when creating her paintings. Therefore her work gathers all these elements into one single moment, which then becomes eternal.

艺术并不是呈现可见的东西，而是把不可见的东西呈现出来，它可以通过一种轻松的方式让我们来了解我们自己，它表达的就是个人的情感，给艺术家音乐家自由和力量让他们发出自己的声音，但是要求更多的个人以外的东西积累，它总是处于改变之中，他旋转着，移动着，在时间和空间中运动着，寻找着被照亮的的线索，寻找“情节”背后的蕴涵，在寻找和我们自己的生命息息相关的某种“真谛” 去寻找自己灵魂的旋律，在音乐旋律中她能深切的感受到“心灵的呼吸”……

Art is not to show things we can see, but rather to depict things we cannot see. It enables viewers to become more introspective. Art is always at change, between times and spaces, looking for the enlightened traces, and looking for our souls.Art does not exist to show things we can see, but rather to depict things we cannot see. It enables viewers to become more introspective. Art is always about interchange, between times and spaces, looking for the traces of enlightenment and looking for our souls.

建筑就是凝固的音乐，建筑是立体的诗

我们在Gulistan古丽斯坦的《欧洲的漫游》系列中看到很多有关建筑的作品，Gulistan古丽斯坦认为建筑就是凝固的音乐，建筑是立体的诗，建筑是存放躯体的地方，诗是存放人灵魂的地方，好的建筑本身就寄托了人的灵魂，是艺术，是诗，诗进入我们的心灵影响着我们的生活，建筑可以营造诗的意境，文化就像阳光，空气，水一样，是人的生命中不可缺少的，而且也只有文化的东西才能深入我们的骨髓，影响我们的生活方式，是人灵魂得以生存的必要条件。Gulistan古丽斯坦游移于绘画，音乐之间，她描绘着那不知疲倦的音乐的心，她在古典音乐中找到了安静，在爵士乐中找到了自由，她希望心灵的自由能走的更远，音乐温暖着她的心，敏感的琴旋温暖的弹拨着，灵感一片金黄，她把自己的生命用艺术的方式去完成。

Architecture is music made flesh, a three dimensional poem

We see many works of architectures in Gulistan’s Wandering in Europe series. The artist believes that architecture is musicmade flesh, a three dimensional poem. She believes that architectures houses poems, and poems house souls. Great architecture creates a poetic environment, essential to the creation of civilization and culture. Gulistan wanders between paintings and music, portraying her endlessly searching nature. Music soothes her heart and spreads warmth in her soul, which she tries to describe in her work.

   在Gulistan古丽斯坦的世界中，绘画是她的表达方式，音乐和诗歌是她的情感，电影、建筑是她的视野，旅行是她的自我反思，彼此交错而又融合……

In Gulistan’s world, art is her way of communication. Music and poems engage her emotions, movies and architecture broaden her horizons and traveling is her process of introspection. All these elements are essential for her in becoming an artist.

 

 

Gulistan古丽斯坦绘画艺术的生命意义   上海交通大学欧洲文化高等研究院/巴黎欧亚研究院生命艺术现象学研究中心

一、Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术生命的特殊性

艺术家的创作精神及其创作风格是艺术家本身的生活命运及其艺术经验的体现。Gulistan古丽斯坦的生活历程和她所遭遇的特殊命运，为她提供了得天独厚的优越条件而造就了她珍贵的艺术生命，同时也决定了她所固有的艺术风格。

法国现代性作家兼诗人波德莱尔(CharlesBaudelaire)在评论雨果的艺术作品时说：“我在艺术沙龙画展中，只是在维克多·雨果的绘画作品，特别是他应用中国水墨而创作的作品中，发现任何别的艺术家所没有的那种才华横溢的风格：具有生命力的作品流淌着活灵活现的想象力的运作流程，就好像把天上隐含的神秘景象重新呈现在绘画中”。

Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品如同波德莱尔所说，“流淌着活灵活现的想象力的运作流程，就好像把天上隐含的神秘景象重新呈现在绘画中”，具有强大的诱惑力，将观赏者导入动人的韵琴悠扬的童话世界，并在那里品尝可以随时缓缓转化的审美快感。其实，真正的艺术作品，不应该是固定不变的形式结构，它应该包含丰富的反思性和再生产能力，浓缩着艺术家心胸中始终运动着的内在灵魂，同时又展示艺术家心潮起伏的情感波涛，并以艺术家特有的风格表达他的 生命意志及其审美欲望。艺术家的所有活跃的创作情感，就应该像萤火虫的闪闪荧光，既温暖了观赏者，引发他们的再生产的想象力，又能够激荡人们的超越情感，试图探索新的可能世界。对于一位至诚投入的观赏者来说，面对Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品，就会不由自主地沉溺于沁心温柔的韵律世界中，在艺术品迸发出来的动人旋律的伴奏中，悠悠然往来于过去现在未来的多维度时空之中。

一位艺术家要善于把自己的情感意志融贯入创作运动中，同时还要善于通过熟练而奇妙的艺术技巧，包括机敏地运用特殊的绘画语言，使作品成为自身内在情感的结晶 体，使之随时可以与他人对话，同时又频频复生和更新。这样一来，艺术家的生命力就融贯于他的艺术作品中，他的作品也因此而获得可以永远复生的生命力。

Gulistan古丽斯坦以认真严肃的态度进行创作，长期刻苦地磨练自己的艺术基本功，并用心地把自己的理想和情感引导画笔，将创作中的兴致意念细腻地融化在画笔的运作中。所以，Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术很自然地与她本人的身心优美相结合，又深深地隐含着她本人的个性，致使她的作品浓缩地象征着轻柔的生活舞姿，随时可以在观赏者面前以独有的神态重新翩翩起舞。

叔本华认为，唯有艺术，才可以引导人，走出纯粹只为认识服务、却又误导认识的虚幻的表象世界；唯有通过艺术才能变虚幻的表象为对世界的直观，超然于对象本身以及对对象的各种关系，使自己浸沉于审美的愉悦，并因而将人脱离悲观苦闷的状态，以愉悦的态度和精神状态，享受真正的幸福生活。观看Gulistan古丽斯坦的每一个作品，可以给予人赏心悦目的感觉，释放心中累积的烦恼和精神压抑，就好像亚里士多德说悲剧可以通过人们流淌的眼泪而冲洗掉心中的污垢那样。

二、Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术语言的特殊性

Gulistan古丽斯坦的艺术生涯充满着神奇的情节和故事。Gulistan古丽斯坦的生活境遇，不但这造就了她独特的艺术，而且也淬炼出她的特殊的艺术语言。我们说艺术的生命性，并不是抽象的。艺术的生命性是很具体的，甚至是非常微观精细的。首先当然指艺术中隐含的生命运动及其活力，但同时也指艺术中呈现的特殊风格，也指艺术中使用的语言。

艺术家在作品中渗透着自己的生命风格。真正成功的艺术家都是形成自身生命风格的人。什么是风格？风格是艺术家自身生命在其艺术作品中的直接流露；它以无形的 氛围和精神力量，表达出艺术家创作的生机和情趣，是艺术家的灵魂的直接体现。但另一方面，由于艺术作品免不了都要借助于语言来表达，所以，所谓风格，实际上又是艺术语言的多样化游戏。艺术语言是一种无声的和形象的语言，曲折地表现在艺术作品的每一个细节中，也体现在艺术作品的整体结构中。艺术家往往是杰出的诗人，他们的精神世界乃是诗的海洋。正因为这样，将艺术家、诗人、思想家三位一体的中国清初画家石涛曾在一幅画上留下惊人的跋：“画到无声，何敢题句”。在石涛等人那里，艺术语言已经成为他们对氤氲流荡生命的至诚钟爱之盛情的自然流露。

奇妙的艺术语言具有引而不发的特征。这在Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品中尤其明显。艺术语言不同于正常的日常语言，它并不靠有声的或可见的形式，也不靠有规则的象征体系，而是由灵活的艺术技巧加以运作，以审美的韵律悠然舞动于作品中，融化在作品的各个部分，却又活跃地纵横交错在艺术作品的整体结构中。所以，艺术语言不仅不同于日常语言，甚至在不同的艺术家之间，也使用各自不同的艺术语言。这也就是说，艺术语言不像日常语言那样，过分强调语言的通用性和统一规则性。艺术语言偏于特殊性和独特性，它是以不同的艺术家的创作风格而异；不同的艺术家使用自己不同的艺术语言，他们的各自不同的艺术语言表现了他们不同的艺术生命及其特殊风格。在这个意义上说，艺术家要善于使自己的艺术生命及其风格渗透到他所使用的艺术语言，使自己的艺术品形成大家所认同的特殊性。

Gulistan古丽斯坦善于使用自己的艺术语言表达埋伏在作品中的意蕴深长的意境，巧妙地将掺入程度不同的音乐性和诗性，使用富有弹性的飘逸柔和的笔触，阐发她的生命情趣和理想。

由此可见，风格与语言的关联性往往掩盖了两者之间的微妙差异性及其穿插性。在Gulistan古丽斯坦那里，风格与语言的关系并不是直接的，而是通过许多复杂的中介因素，曲折地在语言结构中表现出来。罗兰·巴特说过：“作家的风格固然通过语言表现出来，但风格本身并非语言。更确切地说，风格是通过语言表达，但风格不等于语言。任何作家如果满足于使用语言，那他还不是好作家。好的作家必须善于通过语言，但并不停留在语言上，而是在语言之外表现他的风格。语言是任何人都可以使用的。作家的特点是不仅仅使用语言，而且是巧妙地使用语言之外的各种‘中性的语言’，也即使用‘非一般人所使用的语言’，让自己的语言超越普通的语言之外，在语言中渗透着作家自身的灵魂、情趣、品味和爱好，使之成为作家内心世界的千种风情的审美表达”。

风格往往自然地将作品中试图表达的语言，引向“他处”，即引向作品之外，引向作者、读者和鉴赏者的心灵内部，然后又把他们的心灵引向一个不可预知的可能的世界。正如罗兰·巴特所说：“作为一种自然，语言是在不给予任何形式的情况下彻头彻尾地贯穿于作家的话语之中。…因此，语言是在文学之外”(La langue est comme une Nature qui passeentièrement à travers la parole de l’écrivain, sans pourtant lui donner aucuneforme. … Lalangue est donc en déςà de la littérature)。但是，与此相反，一旦文学性文字显现出纯粹的形式的时候，面对这种虚空形式而引起的恐惧不安，又在不知不觉的情况下，引导文字本身设法寻求一种类似于自然秩序的新秩序；然而，这种由作家本人无意识地表现的新秩序，恰恰又具有社会和历史的性质。这就是所谓的‘风格’或‘文风'(Mais au contraire, à partir du moment oùl’écriture littéraire s’est manisfesté comme forme pure, l’effroi devant levide de cette Forme la conduit à constituer un nouvel ordre, qui est analogue àcelui de la nature, alors qu’il est pourtant entièrement social et historique,c’est le style)。

因此，文风是什么？罗兰·巴特又说：“文风几乎是在文学之外；它是一堆图像、一种语言口才和谈吐风格，一种词汇累积；它们源自作家的身体及其过往历史，并逐渐地演变成作家的具有自动化性质的个人技艺。因此，采取文风的形式，文风乃是一种自给自足的语言，它深深地隐含在作家的个人神话之中”(Le style est presque au-delà de lalittérature : des images, un débit, un lexique naissent du corps et du passé del’écrivain, et deviennent peu à peu les automatisme mêmes de son art. Ainsi, sous le nom destyle, se forme un langage autarcique, qui ne plonge que dans la mythologiepersonnelle de l’auteur)。文风向语言秩序导入一种历史动力，因为它在公共语言的文化平面上导入一直自然的深度(Le style introduit une dynamiquehistorique dans l’ordre de la langue parce qu’il introduit une profondeurnaturelle dans l’horizontalité culturelle de la langue commune)。

同样的，艺术风格并不禁锢在艺术品的框架中，更不是可以死板地归纳成简短的语词，因为它是在艺术之外，它是飘荡于艺术品内外的艺术家的生命韵律，既游动于艺术中和环绕在艺术周围，又来往于艺术家及其观赏者之间的“游魂”，往往在创作和观赏的互动中怫然侵入心扉，触动人们的创作热情和审美欲望。

Gulistan古丽斯坦 用“寂静”来发声的艺术家，她的作品里充满了宋词的意境，混合欧洲古典文化的韵味、对生活有着充沛的感情，作品中流露出“音乐性和诗性”。

Gulistan is an artist speaking out with “Silence”. Her works are filled with the artistic conception of Ci poetry of the Song dynasty, combing the charm of European classical culture, having abundant feelings of life, showing the musicality and poeticity.

                                                                                                           

我在绘画创作中寻找着关于时间和生命的思考，寻找着神秘的遥远，在思绪的旷野里诉说着记忆中那关于时间的传说，记忆的性质、记忆中的肖像，时间和记忆就像一道光芒变得明亮与清澈，时间与空间时常在画面中交汇，空灵的意蕴里色彩透射出一种让人怀念或记忆的东西。

I am looking for the thinking on time and life in painting creation, looking for the mysterious distant place, telling about the legend of time, the nature of memory, the portrait in memory in the wilderness of mind. Time and memory are like a ray of light which become bright and clear. Time and space are constantly confluence in the picture. In the ethereal implications, colors convey a kind of thing that is remembered or memorized.

Gulistan古丽斯坦的世界里却不全都只是画。绘画只是她的表达方式，音乐和 诗歌也是她的情感之源，而她的所有情感的基础，却是对时空的思考。

Before I met Gulistan, it is hard to imagine that as a painter, it’s not entirely paintings in her world. Painting is just her way of expression. Music and poems are the sources of her emotion while the basis of all her emotions and feelings is the thinking on time and space.

在哲学的思考下，Gulistan古丽斯坦将诗歌、音乐、电影等诸多艺术门类与绘画融合，并给艺术创作以更完整的自由呈现。

Under the thinking of Philosophy, she combines all sorts of art categories such as the poems, music, movies with painting and presents the art creations with more complete freedom.

Memory of the portrait-A piece of golden

As a film and television producer, I have participated in many art exhibitions, and I often draw lessons from painting to create, but I have to say, Gulistan’s paintings give me a unique feeling – she paints like herself, giving people a pure and elegant, gentle and jade-like feeling, as well as a mysterious and profound sense of time and space.

The art of painting, like the art of film, reflects the artist’s observation and expression: Gulistan’s works mainly focus on “time, space, memory” as the theme: Time and space are the basis of life and material existence, memory is the basis for the continuation and development of human thinking and civilization.

One of the charms of art is that you read it and examine yourself. We appreciate works of art, and the greatest benefits are nothing more than two points: One is to bring pure aesthetic enjoyment, and the other is to trigger some kind of imagination and thinking. Gulistan’s work is unique in that her work seems to have a mind-opening magic, it can always give us a kind of philosophical, life self-examination-style imagination and thinking, even the ultimate thinking; it is like a dialogue beyond time and space, and it is like a past friendship remembered by time; In other words, everyone who yearns for spiritual freedom, longs to explore and think about the essentials of life, but has experienced the vicissitudes of life, can find the common frequency of heart and spirit in her works.

Looking at her paintings, it seems to open the door of time and space memory at once, you can see the imprint of the sky and the years, and sometimes you seem to see yourself, her paintings are the textures and colors branded on the canvas after time, space and memory have accumulated over the years, let us see more than just a simple painting, it also contains a kind of thinking about the past, present, future, as well as the meaning of life and existence. It is a picture scroll of thought wearing a flower dress of time and dancing under the rhythm of music; However, her work is just the right way to open and share this kind of thinking, but it never gives people a sense of oppression that is subjectively and spiritually instilled – This is a shackle that is difficult for an artist to escape – And this is precisely what makes Gulistan’s works brilliant and invaluable. And all of this, if the artist does not have a sense of reverence for life and all things, and a devotion to the pure beauty of the spirit, it is impossible to do it.

Maybe, we can temporarily forget about time, or occasionally not think about the meaning of existence, but it is hard to forget the Naples yellow and the light and heavy metaphorical line strokes and unique composition in Gulistan’s paintings, as well as the splendor and splendor contained in the image, under the interlacing of time and space and memory!

我的梦是一座花园VI

作为一名影视制片人，我参加过很多画展，也常以绘画借鉴之于创作，但不得不说，Gulistan古丽斯坦的绘画给我的感觉是独特的——她画如其人，予人一种纯净高雅、温婉如玉的感觉，更带一种时空悠远的神秘感和深邃感。

绘画艺术和电影艺术一样，体现是艺术家的观察与表达；Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品主要以“时间、空间、记忆”为主题；时间和空间是生命和物质存在的依托，记忆则是人类思维以及文明得以延续与发展的基础。

艺术的魅力之一在于你读懂了它，又审视了自己。我们欣赏艺术作品，最大的益处无非两点：一是带来纯粹的美感享受，第二是引发某种想象与思考。Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品独具匠心之处就在于，她的作品似乎具有一种开启思维的魔力，总能给我们一种哲学式的、生命自我审视式的想象与思考，甚至是终极思考；像是超越时空的对话，又像是岁月记忆的夙契；或者说，每一个向往精神自由，渴望探究和思考生命要义，却又历经世事沧桑的人，都能在她的作品里找到心灵和精神的共频。

看她的绘画，仿佛一下子打开了时空记忆的大门，你能够看见苍穹与岁月的印记，而有时你又似乎看见了自己。她的绘画是时空与记忆经过岁月沉淀后烙在画布上的纹理与色彩，让我们看到的不仅仅是一幅单纯的绘画作品，更蕴含着对过去、现在、未来，以及生命和存在意义的一种思考，是一幅思想穿戴了岁月的花裙，在音乐的韵律下翩翩起舞的画卷；然而，她的作品只是恰到好处地开启和分享这种思考，却从来不会给人主观刻意和精神灌输的压迫感——这是一个艺术家很难摆脱的桎梏——而这也恰恰是古丽老师作品高明与难能可贵之处。而这一切，如果艺术家没有一种对生命万物的敬畏之心，以及对精神纯净之美的虔诚之心，是做不到的。

也许，我们可以暂时忘却时间，也可以偶尔不去思考存在的意义，但却很难忘记Gulistan古丽斯坦绘画里的拿坡里黄和轻重隐喻的线条笔触与独特的构图，以及画幅中所蕴含的、时空与记忆交错下的灿烂与辉煌！

My dream is a garden III

I’m not a professional art collector, and the artwork I like has my own very personal thoughts.

Gulistan and I have known each other many years ago, we are basically contemporaries, just like a fellow traveler in one direction, she and her work are there, and even though we don’t see each other often, it feels like she’s always on the same frequency as me… In retrospect, I like Gulistan’s work for three main reasons:

First of all, Gulistan’s work is very much in line with my aesthetic preference. Because every artist has a very specific intention and her own way of expression when creating, but often the viewer may not know the story behind it at first glance, so I collect it because I really like it, have a fate,

able to be impressed. There are no works that I resonate with or dislike, no matter how good others say it, how to enter the market, appreciate, etc., I will not collect it. The biggest difference between art and commodities is that we have different values for it;

The second is that the work should seem to be related to me, something that resonates with me in my past memory or that I would be comfortable with in my space. It’s wonderful, this artwork will be integrated into my life and become a part of my life… Collections are not necessarily famous, expensive, or to show how artistic the collector is… Collections are often related to your subconscious love, perhaps childhood memories, perhaps a book you liked during your school days, or a trip to leave a good memory… When we are old, we will forget, but as the saying goes, seeing things and remembering people, collections can evoke our memories; And when the collection is a beautiful and story art piece, the traces of our lives will naturally continue in the lives of the next generation. This is one of the meanings of inheritance.

Memory of the portrait － Self-gaze

Third, anything that can be called art, I think the most important thing is that it is intriguing and can stand the precipitation of time, like a good wine. I pay more attention to whether an artist spends whole life in creating, in the long river of time, has always pursued art with wholehearted love, and as time goes by, this love is getting deeper and stronger!

Gulistan herself and her work are such a presence.

Gulistan herself and her work reflect our generation’s family background in urban education, basic understanding of truth, goodness and beauty in ancient and modern China and abroad. This kind of beauty has historical inheritance, traces of human civilization, and we have seen it in reading or traveling, This kind of beauty has historical inheritance, traces of human civilization, and we have seen it in reading or traveling, so Gulistan’s works for us have a kind of beauty that seems to have known each other, and a nostalgia for our old friends in other places… This kind of memory that has deeply touched you, faded but lingering, seems to embrace you through Gulistan’s work and through time and space.

In fact, it is difficult to express this kind of emotion through painting, because it is too complicated and very strong, and it is not clear. It may be easier to express it through music… But Gulistan’s work does it! She has found a special painting language that belongs to her. It is very unique. It seems simple, hazy and light, but it is fully and thickly expressed. There is a feeling of light weight, which can directly hit the depths of your memory and soul…

Her paintings are like wine, simple in appearance, yet mellow and aftertaste in the mouth… Looking at her paintings, you feel warm at first, then you will stop to watch and talk to it, and you will even cry silently over time…

Memory of the portrait- Blue II

Many people like to categorize artists, perhaps for easier systematic memory for later learners. I have been canceling a lot of trips due to COVID-19 some time ago, and there are Chagall and Gaetano Pechet exhibitions in two art galleries near where I work, and these happens to be the time period for Gulistan’s exhibition “Temperature of Time” in 2022, these three Chinese and foreign, young and old artists are all I find difficult to categorize! Romanticism, Impressionism, Abstraction, Surrealism… They are related to many definitions but are not consistent, instead, it has a stronger personal style and unique artistic charm. I hope that Gulistan will continue to move forward with her painting language and communicate with the world. One day she will become one of the most influential Chinese artists in the world.

I spent my college days in the Department of Architecture of Tsinghua University, and later I also engaged in the design industry for many years. Architectural design is a subject between rationality and sensibility, technology and art. I use my own creative experience to feel Gulistan’s paintings, I think the most attractive thing about art compared with technology is that every audience sees and understands the same painting differently, unlike mathematics, which has formulas and conclusions… Different people have different interpretations of the same painting by Gulistan, and are broken down in front of different paintings… This is exactly how Gulistan likes to communicate, she likes to listen to each audience’s feedback and their interpretation, and consciously amplify the peculiar effect of this communication again, so there are many interesting people from different industries, different nationalities, different genders, and different circles gathered around her, which is also one of the unique charms of her work.

At the same time, because the image is the artist’s own memory, understanding and perception of life, the painting itself can be called a self-portrait of the author in disguise. Gulistan herself is quiet and introverted, beautiful and kind, gentle and delicate, rich in experience, and has a solid artistic foundation, her paintings are just like her! When we see Gulistan’s painting, even if only briefly hurried past it, when we see Gulistan’s paintings, even briefly passing by the images, there will be Just a quick glance but it left a deep impression, a glance like a thousand years.

From her paintings, we can feel awe, sadness and sympathy, wishes, gaze, nostalgia, longing for hometown, family affection… Her paintings are subtle and gentle like songs, and she loves the exquisite remains in human history, Her paintings are subtle and gentle like songs, she loves the exquisite relics in human history, capturing the unforgettable beauty in memory and the emotion and spirit behind them, Gulistan has nurtured her unique painting language through years of dedicated and professional thinking and practice… So she often said that every painting is like one of her children! Maybe it’s easier for me as a woman to understand the meaning of this sentence…

Memory of portrait- The Age of Innocence I

I am very fortunate to be able to collect one of Gulistan’s important works in the “Color of Time” exhibition at the National Art Museum of China “Memory of portrait- The Age of Innocence I”, I don’t know why but it reminds me of pictures of me and my younger brother when we were young, of our parents who loved us, we used to live in a poor and happy intellectual family full of love, the joy and tranquility of childhood are full of sunshine and details like the colors in the picture…

Thanks Gulistan! Thanks for the company of this painting in the future! The memory of love will live with us…

记忆中的肖像－金色童年

我不是专业的艺术收藏家，我喜欢的艺术品有我自己的很personal的思考。

古丽老师我们很多年前就认识，我们基本是同时代的人，就像去一个方向的同行者，她和她的作品就在那里，虽然不常见面但感觉一直跟我同步同频……细想起来，我喜欢古丽老师的作品有三个主要理由：

首先，古丽老师的作品，非常符合我的审美偏好。因为每一位艺术家在创作时都是有非常特定的用心和属于她的表达方式，但往往观看者第一眼不一定了解背后的故事，所以我收藏一定是因为我真心喜欢、有眼缘、能够被打动……我没有共鸣的或者不喜欢的，别人再说好.如何入流.升值等等我也不会收藏，艺术品跟商品最大的不同，就是我们对它的价值观不一样；

第二是作品要仿佛跟我有关，跟我过往的记忆里的某点存在共鸣，或者我的空间里容纳它我会感到很舒服.很美妙，这件艺术品会将融入我日后的生活并成为我生活的一部分……收藏的东西并不一定很有名、很贵、也不为显示藏家多么有艺术品味……收藏往往跟自己的潜意识里的爱有关、或许是童年的记忆、或许学生时代曾经喜欢的一本书、也或是一段旅行留下美好记忆……当我们老了、会遗忘，但俗话说睹物思人，收藏可以唤起我们的记忆；而当收藏是一件很美又有故事的艺术品，我们生活的痕迹就自然在下一代人的生活中继续，这就是传承的意义之一吧。

记忆的性质

第三，凡称得上艺术品，我觉得最重要的是它耐人寻味、经得起时间的沉淀，像好酒。我更看重一位艺术家是否用一生在创作，在时间的长河里，始终用全身心的热爱在追求艺术，而且随着时间的推移，这份爱越来越深沉.越来越浓厚！

古丽老师本人和她的作品正是这样的存在。

古丽老师本人和她的作品反应了我们这一代在都市教育背景的家庭出身的人，对古今中外真善美的基本认知。这种美是有历史传承的、有人类文明痕迹的、我们在读书或者旅行中曾经见过的，所以古丽老师的作品对我们来说 里面有一种似曾相识的美好、有一种对昔日他乡故友的怀恋……这种曾经深深打动过你的记忆，虽然褪色但挥之不去，好像透过古丽老师作品、穿越时空来拥抱你。

其实这种情感很难通过绘画表达，因为太复杂也很浓重更说不清，用音乐表达也许还容易些……但古丽老师的作品做到了！她找到了属于她的一种特殊绘画语言，非常独特，看似简单朦胧轻盈，却表达得很充分很厚实，有一种举重若轻的感觉，可以直击你的记忆深处和心灵深处………

她的画像酒，看起来简单、入口却很醇厚且有回味……看着她的画，初感觉温暖、然后你会静下来看进去与它对话，久而久之甚至也会默默落泪……

关于时间的传说I

很多人喜欢把艺术家归类，也许为了后来学习者更容易系统记忆吧。前段时间一直因为新冠疫情取消了很多旅行，正好在我工作地附近的两个美术馆有夏加尔展、和加埃塔诺.佩谢展，而这恰好也是古丽老师在2022年的展览《时间的温度》的时段，这三位中外新老的艺术家都是我感觉很难被分类的！浪漫主义、印象派、抽象派、超现实主义……他（她）们跟很多定义词都有关但又都不一致，反而有更加强烈的个人风格和独特的艺术魅力。我希望古丽老师用属于她的绘画语言继续前行，与世界交流，有一天她必将成为中国在全球最有影响力的一位艺术家。

我自己大学时代是在清华大学建筑系度过的，后来也从事设计行业多年，建筑设计是介于理性和感性之间、技术和艺术之间的学科。我用自己的创作体验去感受古丽老师的画，我想艺术对比科技最有魅力的地方就是每一位观众面对同一幅画看到的和理解的都是不同的，不像数学有公式、有定论……不同的人在古丽老师的同一幅画前会有不同的解读，在不同的画前被击穿……这也正是古丽老师喜欢的交流方式，她喜欢聆听每一位观众的反馈和属于他们的解读，并有意识的再放大这种交流产生的奇特效应，所以她的身边聚集了很多不同行业、不同国籍、不同性别、不同圈子的有趣的人，这也是她与她的作品与众不同的魅力之一。

同时，因为画面是艺术家自己对生活的记忆、理解和感悟，所以绘画本身就可以称作是一副作者的变相自画像。古丽老师本人安静内向、美丽善良、温柔细腻、阅历丰富、并有扎实的艺术功底，她的画如其人！当我们看到了古丽老师的画，哪怕只短暂的从画面前匆匆走过，都会有惊鸿一瞥、一眼千年的感觉。

从她的画里我们感受得到敬畏、悲悯、祝愿、凝望、怀恋、乡愁、亲情……她的画含蓄温婉如歌，她热爱人类历史上精美的遗存，捕捉那些记忆中不能忘却的美和它们背后的情感与精神，古丽老师通过多年自身专心专业的思考与实践，孕育出了属于她的独特的绘画语言……所以她常说，每一幅画都像是她的一个孩子！这句话的含义，也许我作为女性更容易懂……

记忆中的肖像－纯真年代I

我很有幸可以收藏古丽老师在中国美术馆那次《时间的颜色》展览中的重要作品之一《记忆中的肖像－纯真年代I》，不知为何，就是很让我想起我和我的弟弟少年时代的照片、想起爱我们的父母，我们曾经生活在一个充满爱的清贫且幸福的知识分子家庭，儿时的欢乐与宁静像画面里的色彩一样充满阳光与细节……

感谢古丽老师！感恩未来有这幅画的陪伴！爱的记忆将与我们长存……

Posture-Puppet

This is one of my favorite paintings. Shadow puppetry, as a very symbolic element, represents the illusory and imaginary part of our life. With the combination of horses, it has the charm of the Oriental Don Quixote’s bravado. The table is a very life scene objects. It is real and has a sense of existence, you can even feels its weight. The combination of the two in the same image produces some interesting chemical reactions, in a one-dimensional space to create a sense of sight in a three-dimensional space, it is real and illusory, and even somewhat ironic and absurd. Just like our daily life, that is, with the trivialities and bits and pieces of real firewood, rice, oil and salt, there are also poems and distant places, as well as the illusory meanings that we subjectively fabricated. Of course, life itself has absurd drama. Gulistan is a poetic observer of life. She always examines her surroundings with romantic personal feelings, which is reflected in her paintings, combining elements that ordinary people don’t notice very much, constructed her unique perspective of observation, which arouses the viewers into deep thinking, and also attracts the viewers to peep into the world in her eyes with curiosity.

姿态系列－中国玩偶

这是我非常喜欢的一张画，皮影戏作为一个很符号化的元素，代表我们生活中虚幻和想象的部分，加上马的组合，很有些东方堂吉柯德虚张声势的韵味。桌子是一个非常生活场景化的物件，实在，有存在感，你甚至能感受到他的重量。这两 者组合在同一画面，产生了一些很有意思的化学反应，在一个一维空间捏造出三维空间的即视感，即真实又虚幻，甚至有些反讽和荒诞。正如我们每天的生活，即有着真实柴米油盐的琐碎不堪和鸡零狗碎，也同时存在着诗和远方，以及我们主观捏造出来的虚幻意义，当然生活本身就具有荒诞的戏剧性。古丽是一个具有诗性的生活观察者，她总是带着浪漫的个人情怀去审视周遭，并在她的画作中体现，把常人不太会觉察到的元素组合在一起，构建了她的独特观察视角，引发观者陷入深深的思考，也吸引观者带着好奇去窥探她眼中的世界。

Memory of the portrait – Tribute to the classics

There is a sense of distance in viewing Gulistan’s paintings. This distance is reflected in time. The classical and romantic expressions of the characters in the paintings show a kind of alienation from the restless mentality of the contemporary people. This distance is manifested in space, a continental civilization that is far from the Pacific and Atlantic. This distance is reflected in the palette, where bright yellow and blue collide directly… Looking at these paintings makes me curious, I feel that the artist is in the picture, whether it is a figure, a flower, or a chair, it is the artist herself, she is waiting quietly in the sun. It is this sense of distance that produces a unique sense of beauty, In the quiet and restrained appearance, beating with the vitality of life.

As an architect, judging from my professional instinct, this distance can be measured. With this clear dimension of time and space, the audience enters into Gulistan’s paintings according to their own feelings and understandings, explores, confirms, and completes those blank images, which seem to be faded memories.

Gulistan’s paintings can present her own rich inner world, giving people a sense of depth and tranquility. Her cross-cultural, cross-regional, and cross-artistic vision can always inject the warmth of sunshine into people’s hearts and make people perceive the beauty of life.

记忆中的肖像-梦中的新娘

观看古丽老师的绘画作品会有一种距离感。这种距离体现在时间上，画中人物古典气质而浪漫的神情，与当代人躁动不安的心态呈现出一种疏离。这种距离体现在空间上，那是一种离太平洋和大西洋都很遥远的大陆文明。这种距离体现在调色板上，明快的黄与兰直接相撞…看着这些作品，会让我产生好奇心，感觉画家本人就在画面中，不论是人物、花卉，还是一把椅子，都是画家本人，她在阳光中静静的等待。正是这种距离感产生了一种独特的美感，在安静克制的外表，跳动着富有生命的活力。

我作为一个建筑师，从职业的本能判断，这种距离是可以度量的，有了这个清晰的时间、空间的维度，观众就根据自己的感受和理解进入古丽的作品当中，自己去探索，去印证，去完成那些留白的画面，似乎是褪色的记忆。

古丽的作品能够呈现出她本人丰富的内心世界，给人深邃和恬静的感觉。她跨文化的，跨地域，跨艺术界限的视野，总能给人内心注入阳光的温度，让人感知生命的美好。

Fairy garden IV

By chance, I met artist Gulistan at an exhibition at the National Art Museum of China. Like her own, her paintings are full of affinity, exuding peace and authenticity.

As a painter, nothing is more important than authentic expression. Because under the “real” brush, there will be works infused with heart.

In her paintings, even a flower and a leaf all reveal spiritual energy. It’s a brushstroke without pretentiousness, a sway without pretense. It’s the wisdom behind simplicity, naivety, and seemingly simple. All this makes me feel energetic life.

Since the advent of the camera in the early nineteenth century, people have had a new understanding of the nature of painting. Painting is no longer just an art that follows natural representations, or simulates a “mirror image” of reality. It will bring people more imagination space, even if it is a surreal, subjective world.

Gulistan’s work is her “existence”, but also belongs to the viewer. What she gives us is the opportunity to explore ourselves again and again, so that the people who stop there seem to touch a window inadvertently. After opening it, they will find that there is a world of their own.

A great artist goes deep into the space and incorporates her own spirit and breath into the work. Because it’s real, it’s alive, it’s life that infuses the heart with inspiration. So every time a piece of work is created, it no longer belongs to anyone. It travels in time, bringing warmth, breath, and charm to those who are destined to meet.

It was also that encounter that gave me the privilege of being in the time and space of Gulistan’s art and glimpsed the traces left by the pure soul across the sky.

Looking forward to meeting you, thanks for meeting!

关于时间的传说系列之II

一次偶然的机会，在中国美术馆画展上，遇见了艺术家Gulistan古丽斯坦。她的作品与本人一样，充满了亲和力，散发着平和与真实的气息。

作为一名画家，没有什么比真实的表达更重要的了。因为在“真实”的笔下，才会有将心注入的作品。

在她的绘画中，即便是一朵花，一片叶，也无不透露着灵气。那是没有矫揉造作的笔触，是没有装腔作势的挥洒。是单纯、天真和看似简单背后的智慧。这一切让我感受到了充满活力的生命。

自从十九世纪初照相机问世以来，人们便对绘画的本质有了重新的认识。绘画不再只是追随自然表象的艺术，或模拟现实的”镜像”。它会带给人们更多的想象空间，哪怕是超现实的，主观化了的世界。

Gulistan古丽斯坦的作品是她的“存在”，同时也属于观赏者的。她给予我们的是一次次探索自己的机会，让驻足的人们，像是不经意间触碰到了一扇窗，推开后会发现，那里竟然有着自己的世界 。

一个伟大的艺术家会深入空间，将自己的神与气融入到作品。因为它是真实的，是鲜活的，是将心注入以灵感之的生命。所以每当一件作品被创作出的那一刻，便不再属于任何一个人了。它游走在时间里，将温度、气息、神韵带给那些有缘相见的人。

也正是那一次遇见，才让我有幸置身在Gulistan古丽斯坦艺术的时空里，瞥见那颗纯净的心灵划过天空时留下的痕迹。

期待相逢，感谢遇见！
