郭向新：心境摄影在“天地之间”

Kok Heng San: State-of-Mind Photography“Between Heaven and Earth”

文澳雯 Ao Wen 译曹宇光 Cao Yuguang

由澳门基金会主办的澳门艺术家推广计划：“天地之间——郭向新心境摄影系列”展览于2月10日至20日在澳门教科文中心展览厅举办，展出澳门艺术家郭向新的精选作品共60件，同场首发《天地之间——郭向新心境摄影系列》影集。

开幕式主礼嘉宾包括澳门中联办文教部副部长级助理邵彬、外交部驻澳特派员公署公共外交和新闻部主任郑新友、澳门基金会行政委员会主席吴志良、沙龙影艺会永远荣誉会长黎荣照、数码摄影学会名誉顾问郑世强、美国摄影学会艺术会士王丽珠、澳门摄影学会会员大会主席郭敬文、美国摄影学会会士何根强及本次展览作者郭向新。

因本次展览作品多取材自一些生活中平凡或容易被人忽略的景物，故取名“天地之间”。展览作品超过三分之二的作品于澳门创作，拍摄年份由1955年至今，记录了不少澳门已消失的人事景物，也涵盖了他不同时期的创作及摄影技巧。

郭向新表示，他的创作希望透过被拍摄景物之表象及内在精神，将自己的心境与意念传达给观赏者，引人联想及共鸣；在形式上则利用光线明暗的对比、图形组合，形成一种特殊的效果，令作品富有艺术感染力，并散发出清新的韵律。

“Between Heaven and Earth—Kok Heng San’s State-of-Mind Photography Series” exhibition, part of “Macao Artists Promotion Plan” sponsored by Macao Foundation, was held at Exhibition Hall of Macao Center of Education, Science and Culture from February 10 till 20. Along with the exhibition consisting of 42 selected works by Macao artist Kok Heng San, the album “Between Heaven and Earth—Kok Heng San’s State-of-Mind Photography Series” was issued simultaneously.

Distinguished guests such as Mr. Shao Bin, assistant director of Department of Culture and Education of Central Liaison Office in Macao, Mr. Zheng Xinyou, director general of Department of Public Diplomacy and Information of Commissioner’s Office of Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Macao, Mr. Wu Zhiliang, president of Macao Foundation, Mr. Lai Weng Chio, eternal honorary president of Salon Photography Society, Mr. Cheang Sai Keong, honorary consultant of Macao Digital Photography Society, Ms. Wong Lai Chu, member of Photography Society of America, Mr. Kuo Keng Man, president of Macao Photography Society, Mr. Ho Kan Keong, artist of Photography Society of America and the author Kok Heng San, attended the opening ceremony.

As most pictures in this exhibition are taken from ordinary scenes or some objects prone to be neglected in daily life, the author adopted an extensive title “Between Heaven and Earth”. Over two thirds of the pictures were created in Macao and taken from 1995 up till now as a record of many disappearing elements in Macao as well as panorama of the author’s artistic creation and technique in photography in varied periods of time.

As Kok Heng San expressed, through the objects in the lens and its inner spirit, his creation tends to convey his own state of mind and intention to the audiences and remind of their imagination and sympathy. In his artistic formality, the contrast between light and shadow and graphic combination constitute an extraordinary effect that has endowed those pictures with artistic appeal and radiated a refreshing rhythm.
