超藝術空間 介紹

超藝術空間成立於2020年,坐落於台中城市中心。

「超」字除了源於創辦人洪士超先生之名,更希冀超類絶倫,創造出嶄新的藝文新樣貌,以藝術作為與城市美學之橋樑。除了經營台灣中生代藝術家之經典,也兼容多元主題與風格,書寫當代藝術文法;推動與扶植新銳創作者,以及專業收藏領域。

空間共有兩層樓,近百坪挑高展場空間除了展示陳列雕塑藝術、平面創作等,也設有寬廣的教室,打破了藝術與生活之邊界,作為推廣當代美學教育的場域。

Overview

His art is not only sculpture in simple sense of the word
But poetic melody and philosophical meditation.
Perhaps we do not understand Lee Kuang-Yu enough.

 

His thinking follows not the cascading flows of contemporary art,
But classicism in continuation and humanism revived.
Perhaps we do not understand Lee Kuang-Yu enough.

 

His stance is not mere nonchalance detached from the mundane world,
But persistent defense and indomitable resistance.
Perhaps we do not understand Lee Kuang-Yu enough.

 

His life comprises not lyrical seasonal cycles in nature
But solitary grace and bittersweet beauty.

 

The equally lonely Nietzsche proclaimed through the mouth of Zarathustra, “God is dead” –
A statement calling to the world that people should believe in the self rather than being bound by “the absolute truth.”

 

In the same way, Lee Kuang-Yu tries to awaken us through his sculpture:
Art is not to be worshipped; art is what flows from within.
