“啟航” The Voyage
－里埃拉．伊．阿拉貢Riera i Aragó 亞洲首個展
Taipei·DunRen
里埃拉．伊．阿拉貢Riera i Aragó（Spain, b. 1954）出生於⻄班牙，⻄班牙聖霍爾迪美術學院藝術學士，現居住創作於巴塞隆納。阿拉貢Aragó 為西班牙著名藝術家，五十年創作生涯代表的天上螺旋漿、海中潛水艇的圖像意念深入人心，融合抽象表現主義及未來主義的繪畫、雕塑、版畫作品，混合機械、航行獨特風格聞名。曾在眾多歐洲博物館舉辦個展，德國海布隆市政博物館、法國亞爾梵谷基金會、西班牙巴塞隆納米羅基金會、比利時奧斯坦德現代藝術博物館，並於美國邁阿密和紐約、法國巴黎、德國科隆、弗萊堡和達姆施塔特、荷蘭阿姆斯特丹和海牙、哥倫比亞波哥大等多地個展展出。作品飛機Airplanes系列、潛水艇Submarines系列及島嶼之海Arals系列分別獲得法國亞爾梵谷基金會、⻄班牙巴塞隆納市政廳、比利時西法蘭德斯省旅遊局和芝加哥波音公司等機構永久收藏。

1970年代創作初期，里埃拉．伊．阿拉貢Riera i Aragó便自行創作出一套圖像語言，記錄365天的生活。1980年代開始，他對深海環境、機械及飛機產生興趣，像是鑄造技術、機械零件及金屬模具等，他採用鉛、鋅材料製作雕塑與浮雕系列。過往遊歷歐洲的經歷，讓他結合風景元素融入雕塑，甚至將沙灘上的碎片與木材放入青銅雕塑中。從他將拆解船隻後的鐵皮融入雕塑裡的實驗開始，鑄鐵製成的螺旋槳元素變得無比重要。五十年的藝術生涯中，阿拉貢Aragó 創作出許多雋永的系列作品包括：島嶼之海Arals系列、飛機Airplanes系列、船舶Boats系列、 浮雕Low Reliefs系列、潛水艇Submarines系列及島嶼風光Landscapes/ Islands系列等。1990年代，他為⻄班牙巴塞隆納市政廳客製作品“深埋的潛水艇 Buried Submarine”及“紅色大螺旋槳飛機Gran avió d’hèlix vermella”、德國海布隆市政博物館收藏“牆上的潛水艇Submarine on the wall”、法國亞爾梵谷基金會收藏飛機Airplanes系列作品“Airplane 1.05PM”，皆為其創作生涯重要的里程碑。
Diary- from 7 March 1982 – 6 March 1983
From the beginning, his work manifested itself as indebted to mechanics, physics and the inspiring principles of modern science. "The machine, its form and its function, are the totems of the 20th century, devices that fascinate the artist and that is why he transforms them into instruments at his service. If in other times the artists had taken the landscape, the mythological narratives or the human figure as inspirational themes, Riera i Aragó opted for one of the most characteristic emblems of his time, the world of the machine and artifacts in general, but he did not do so by following a literal or mimetic realism, but speaking ironically of the machine , of its transience, of its ability to suggest, in a round trip from the real to the imaginary that ultimately makes all these references an immense excuse to make art "(Daniel Giralt Miracle)

If nature had always been present in a certain way in the work of Riera i Aragó, even as a background landscape, as we approach the 21st century the machine changes its non-functionality in a certain way to get closer to the values of environmentalism and nature conservation. Those imaginary spaces for his sculptures, which have always attracted him and which are in fact the natural environment for submarines and airplanes, such as the sea and the air, are now claimed and gain prominence as can be seen in the series of species protected or in the monumental sculptures of the Aral in front of the sea.
本次展覽“啟航”The Voyage，展出里埃拉．伊．阿拉貢Riera i Aragó創作核心元素的繪畫及雕塑作品，包含天空深海的飛機潛水艇，及其富含意義的世界觀：“綠松石上的彩色飛機Colored angle airplane on turquoise”（2019），或是“金色海面上的小船Boat on golden sea”（2017）、“兩架飛機與世界World and two airplanes”（2019），表現在有形及無形的空間中轉換，並融合了塗鴉與拼貼技巧，小小的螺旋槳飛機從實體跨越至神秘的空間，是一場歷練、挑戰或是生命的獨白。今年最新的小雕塑系列，作品EM0423（2023）、EM1023（2023）、EM1223（2023）等，此系列過去皆以座標系統的星座為名：螺旋槳、輪子及尾翼決定了雕塑的形態，不斷在平衡間旅行，向天空打開，如同各種人類情感，變幻莫測。阿拉貢Aragó 談到：「旅行是我展覽標題中常見的主題之一，它指的是藝術所代表的旅程，生命本身就像旅程一樣。」
In addition, he is the author of large sculptures for public spaces.
Among his exhibitions held in recent years, the extensive retrospectives dedicated to him by three museums in France stand out: the Musée d'art modern de Céret and the Musée de Collioure, as well as the Musée d'art Modern André Malraux, MuMa, Le Havre. Also the presentation of his large-scale sculptures in the gardens of the Tournay-Solvay Park in Brussels, within the framework of the exhibition dedicated to him by the Fondation Folon.

Artist
里埃拉．伊．阿拉貢 Riera i Aragó
（Spain, b. 1954）
Riera i Aragó (Barcelona 1954) belongs to that generation of artists who in the eighties took up the languages of painting and sculpture, being one of the protagonists of the recovery of the sculptural practice that the avant-garde of the thirties, from of iron, they had begun. After the dematerialization of the work of art that conceptual art entailed, and once pictorial informalism in all its versions had been exhausted, they discovered in the eighties that sculpture unrelated to statuary and naturalism had enormous expressive possibilities and at the same time, he was capable of conversing with the urban scene, the center of modern life. As one of the followers of those avant-garde, in the beginning he maintained a special sensitivity for traditional materials -iron, bronze, wood...-, which, many times, he recovered and recycled to focus all his plastic discourse on the environment of archeology of machinery.
