        赵刚于1961年出生,上小学时正值文化大革命的爆发,文革时期的样板戏,为政治宣传服务的电影,包括课本,连环画等有着明显意识形态烙印的读物,都构成了艺术家成长过程的主要图像资源。

        赵刚的青春期在70年代压抑的社会环境中渡过,直至到长大成人的坎坷经历之后,好奇心和玩笑都来自一种洒脱的趣味和随意的绘画方式,旧的、刻板的价值观已经轰然倒下。艺术家通过对所谓的英雄,样板,政治的历史进行寓言式的虚构和夸张,揭示荒诞制造者和承受者双方的荒谬。作品中饱含着明显的荒诞意识,荒诞与自由并立,从荒诞中释放出来的是来自人的灵魂深处的另一种人性自由与解放的要求,在荒诞的背后透露了他对不合理现实存在的反抗和对一种新的,更高的理想追求曾参与的重要展览包括“星星”(北京,1979),“星星十年”(巴黎,1989),“横滨国际三年展”(横滨,2005),“中国当代艺术”(维吉尼亚当代艺术馆,2006),“赵刚最近作品” (何香凝美术馆,2006)。

Gang Zhao, was born in 1961, the Cultural Revolution broke out when he was still in elementary school.

The eight standardized revolutionary plays, the movies filled with political propaganda, the systematic textbooks, were then widely disseminated and became Zhao’s primary visual resource throughout his upbringing.

Zhao reached adolescence in the 1970s, secretly experiencing his first sexual arousal when watching the “Red Women Army” ballet performance, he survived the many challenges in life by personalizing and demystifying those who held power. Zhao’s curious and ludicrous representations come from a method of loose, enticing and unconscious painting style.

As time past, the artist’s old and rigidly formal value system has been replaced with lustful abruption, physical pleasure, seriousness, and absurdity. Zhao’s unconventional exaggeration and counter-offensive to certain political models, social orders, bureaucratic systems and conformist thinking reinforce his notion of absurdity as political tool. Through absurdity, the artist reveals his rebellion against an unreasonable reality; it becomes a quest for a more desirable, admirable and brand new ideal. In Zhao’s works, there is a force of creative freedom, combined with a carefree attitude, and an acquired playful satire that makes them seem particularly flirtatious, humorous and personalZhao participated in various important art exhibitions including: “The Star” (1979, 1980, Beijing), “The Stars: 10 Years” (Paris, 1989), “Yokohama Triennial” (Yokohama, 2005), “The Face of Contemporary Art in China” (Virginia, 2006), “Gang Zhao’s Most Recent Works” (He Xiangning Museum, 2006).
