YAN Lei graduated from the Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts (now known as the China Academy
of Art), in Hangzhou, in 1991. Yan is a singular and unconventional figure in the Chinese
contemporary art world. Adopting an independent and distant attitude, he explores and unveils
different issues, such as power relationships, competition or the closeness of values and
prices, that exist in the art system, through various media ranging from painting, sculpture,
installation to video and performance. His works often incorporate multiple and often
contradictory values. This ambiguousness shows, on the one hand, the artist’s alertness to and
reflection on the various problems in art-making today, and on the other, the solitude that he
has from being part of the system and his complex feelings confronted with vulgar reality.

杨茂源（b.1966） 1966生于中国大连市，现生活于北京。他1989年毕业于中央美术学院版画系，2002年获得了CCAA中国当代
Yang Maoyuan 艺术奖。他是位充满创造力的艺术家，作品涉及绘画，雕塑，装置，摄影等不同媒介。杨茂源善于将中国
文化与哲学的历史遗存作为创作的灵感来源，其作品通常是对文化根源与生命内涵的表述，他感兴趣的问
89
题是艺术如何产生与时代相对应的精神力量以及如何把这种精神力量通过自己的方式表达。他与其他同辈
艺术家不同，他没有选择文化大革命作为创作题材，也没有对当代社会和生活进行观察或批评，而是始终
将中国文化与哲学的历史遗存作为他创作灵感的来源。他的作品曾被上海昊美术馆，上河美术馆，泰达当
代艺术馆美术馆，和谭国斌当代艺术博物馆等收藏。

Born in Dalian, China in 1966 and currently lives in Beijing. In 1989, he graduated from the
Printmaking Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and won the China Contemporary
Art Award in 2002. Yang Maoyuan has created a diverse body of work including painting,
sculpture, installation, and photography. His works commonly express cultural roots and the
meaning of life. He is interested in the question of how art generates spiritual energy that
corresponds to the times and how to convey this energy through his own means. Despite
the popularity of the Cultural Revolution as a theme among artists of the same generation,
Yang Maoyun never used it, nor did he engage in sociological observation or criticism of
contemporary life and fashion. Instead, the historical relics of Chinese culture and philosophy
have always been the source of his creations. His works have been collected by the Shanghai
HOW art museum, Upriver gallery, Taida Dangdai Art Museum, Tan Guobin Museum of
Contemporary Art, and more.
