金杜藝術(shù)中心將于2017年4月7日到6月23日舉辦藝術(shù)家葉永青紙上作品展覽《紙遁—來自勞森伯格的禮物》。展覽包括了藝術(shù)家多年創(chuàng)作的80余件紙上作品，27件直接創(chuàng)作于著名美國藝術(shù)家勞森伯格1980年代來中國定制的特殊紙張。還有一件特殊的作品將由葉永青在展覽現(xiàn)場完成。葉永青現(xiàn)場創(chuàng)作的理念來源于他對“紙”的理解。他認為紙意味著便攜，意味著自由，特別是中國傳統(tǒng)中的文人畫經(jīng)典作品，很多都來自旅途上的“邊走邊畫”。葉永青相信藝術(shù)，藝術(shù)家和美都應(yīng)該是自由的，因為思想是自由的。所以他不僅僅自己是一個各類紙的收藏家，也是一個熱衷于把他的最靈動的想法和最微妙精致的感受隨時表現(xiàn)在紙上的藝術(shù)家。
　　這個展覽的名稱來自于藝術(shù)家本人。“遁”是中國古代法術(shù)的一種，是一個借由某種媒介而消逝而獲得自由的方式。葉永青的遁法正是在各種各樣的紙中實現(xiàn)的。而勞森伯格的禮物不僅僅一種物理性的歷史遺產(chǎn)，更是他把藝術(shù)與游戲，與生活，與行走完全結(jié)合在一起的精神啟迪。
　　From 7 April  to 23 June 2017, KWM art center will present a solo exhibition of works on paper by Ye Yongqing entitled “Paper Chase – Presents from Rauschenberg”. Including over eighty works on paper, it covers 20 years of Ye Yongqing’s creative output. There will be twenty-seven works in the show created on a special edition paper manufactured by American artist Robert Rauschenberg (1925 – 2008) in China in 1982. Also Ye Yongqing will be onsite creating one large new art work during the exhibition. This site specific work is inspired by Ye Yongqing’s understanding of “paper” as a material. He believes that as paper is easily portable it carries connotations of freedom; especially in ancient China, there were many traditional master literati paintings that were started, worked on or completed when the artist was travelling. Ye believes that the arts, artists and aesthetics are all liberal, because human minds are free. As well as being keen to express his most dynamic ideas and delicate and exquisite feelings on paper, he is also has one of the largest collection of artists paper in China.
　　The English title ‘Paper Chase’ comes from a 14th century English game of the same name. It is a traveling game played outdoors where the discovery of clues in the form of pieces of paper left in the countryside leads one from point a to b. Ye Yongqing sees each work in the exhibition as a demonstration of and clue to his attainment of freedom. By using paper, he is not restricted to a studio space to express himself. Paper gives him the freedom to move from place to place allowing  him the experience of freedom which he can then represent. Ye Yongqing’s use of the Rauschenberg paper is not simply concerned with historically referencing the past. It embodies the inspiration given to him by Rauschenberg to combine the arts, games, life and travelling into his art works.
