Soly Cissé (1969) - Serie Héritage 5

SOLY CISSÉ

在他的拼贴画和画作中，他将被疑惑折磨、被人类无序的自然任意所打击的角色置于舞台之上。Soly Cissé 是一位多面向的艺术家……他的艺术延展到多种媒介：拼贴、绘画、装置、影像、雕塑……在他每件作品里，始终以他那混血的生命、动物、灵魂、象形符号、涂鸦与象征桑努族人物为主线。形态在颜色融化的运动中显现，濒临具象的边缘。
unfinished creatures and characters belonging to an unlocated stage of humanity. Children, animals, all are captured frontally, their faces half-drawn. He paints, sculpts, shapes kraft, clay, works panels in graphic series, recycles wood. Soly Cissé explores risky, unprecedented paths. He is possessed by a healthy anger, confident enough in his influences not to name them. Listening to urban life, he is among those who can calmly discard the adjective “African,” without regret or apology, since Africa today is in him, as a factor of modernity. The line, Cissé’s decisive, tense, agile, takes up the charcoal where his distant ancestors left off. Quick, he captures the being by default, figures thus arise from the formless without forcing them. Just a wink to fate.

Soly Cissé 的作品以其独特、自发的书写性而卓越。 在他的拼贴画中，灵魂与令人不安或保护性的形象并未揭示某一文化的神灵，而是一种幻景怪诞。

他内在有一种明确的意志，要引发一种肥沃而充满活力的紧张感。越是深入进入他这个由灵魂与怪物组成的小宇宙，越能确立那两种强烈对撞：深蓝与刺眼黄的对峙。在缓慢而耐心地探索他的造型语言的过程中，和声逐渐重新确立，平衡被调整。

“毫无疑问，这是一位伟大的艺术家，他直指核心。”
