Brief record |
89年｢大地の魔術師｣展に参加するためにフランスに渡って以来、パリを拠点として国際的な活動を展開。97年ミュンスター彫刻プロジェクトでは、マルセル・デユシャンのレディーメイド作品｢瓶乾燥器｣を連想させる巨大な瓶掛けに、プラスチック製のマネキン人形の腕が千手観音さながらに掛けられている屋外彫刻｢観音様の100本の腕｣を設置。また99年のヴェネチア・ビエンナーレでは、フランス館の代表のひとりに選ばれ、パビリオンのガラスの屋根をつきぬける9本の柱の上に、中国の伝説に登場する動物を載せた｢9頭の動物｣を発表。西洋のモダニズムの血統に縛られない、自由で多様な美術や思考の必要性を提示する。
Born in the People's Republic of China in 1954.
Lives and works in France.
Huang has been living in Paris since he visited
France to participate in the "Magiciens de la
Terre" in 1989. In 1997, Huang exhibited an outdoor
sculpture "The 100 Arms of Guan-Yin" in the Sculpture
Project in Munster. Huang placed a round steel
frame that looked like a bottle rack and, instead
of bottles, mounted plastic mannequin arms on
the rack. In this sculpture, he made an allusion
to Marcel Duchamp's "Bottle Dryer" and the statue
of the thousand-armed Guan-yin, a Buddhist goddess.
In 1999, Huang was chosen as one of the artists
to represent France in the Venice Biennale, where
he presented "One Man, Nine Animals." This work
had nine pillars piercing the pavilion's glass
roof and on top of the pillars nine imaginary
beasts from Chinese legends were perched. It presented
the necessity of free and diversified approaches
to art and ways of thinking, not confined to Western
modernism.
