美国V视：水墨新境:跨媒介与文化的交融——现代水墨艺术展即将登陆纽约
2026年2月5日至3月29日，一场名为《水墨新境：跨媒介与文化的交融》（Modern Ink: Crossing Media, Blending Cultures）的现代水墨艺术展将在纽约长岛市Culture Lab LIC艺术空间隆重举行(地址:5-25 46th Ave, Long Island City, NY)。本次展览旨在探索水墨这一古老东方艺术媒介在当代全球化语境下的无限可能，呈现其跨越文化边界、融合多元学科的蓬勃生命力。
展览由知名策展人Ethan Cohen精心策划，汇聚了五位在不同文化背景与艺术实践中深入探索水墨表达的杰出艺术家：Li Geng、Wang Houtang、Gan Yu、Qin Feng 和 Bian Hong（按年龄排序）。他们的作品将打破传统水墨的既定框架，通过绘画、装置、影像等多种媒介，展现水墨在形式、观念与文化对话上的全新维度。
值得一提的是，参展艺术家之一王厚堂（Wang Houtang）先生，其独创的“功夫墨”艺术在国际上已有一定的知名度。他生于1952年，自幼弄墨练武，勤练书法，将中国书法与武术的神韵与力道完美融合，开创出独树一帜的书写方式与美学境界。他的参与，无疑将为展览注入深厚的传统根基与强劲的革新力量，生动诠释“文武交融”的东方哲学。正如王厚堂先生一直秉持的理念，本次展览也希望成为一座桥梁，将中国传统文化深邃而富有活力的精髓，带到更广阔的国际舞台，促进不同文化间的深度理解与欣赏。
展览将于2026年2月5日晚6时至9时举行开幕酒会，诚邀各界人士共同见证这场艺术盛宴的启幕。此外，为深化学术交流，展览还将于2月21日下午4时至6时，举办艺术家对谈与专题研讨，由Tess Howsam与Dr. Gan Yu共同主持，届时艺术家们将分享他们的创作理念与实践心得。
本次展览由致力于推广中国当代水墨艺术的**Kung Fu Ink, ink 功夫墨社**赞助，由**Culture Lab LIC**主办。我们期待，通过《水墨新境》展览，观众不仅能领略到水墨艺术在当代的多样面貌，更能感受到文化交融所带来的灵感碰撞与无限可能。让我们以开放的心态，共同期待这场穿越媒介、汇通中西的艺术旅程。

"Modern Ink: Crossing Media, Blending Cultures" Exhibition to Open in New York
From February 5 to March 29, 2026, the modern ink art exhibition Modern Ink: Crossing Media, Blending Cultures will be held at the Culture Lab LIC art space in Long Island City, New York (address: 5-25 46th Ave, Long Island City, NY). This exhibition aims to explore the infinite possibilities of ink, an ancient Eastern artistic medium, within the context of contemporary globalization, showcasing its vibrant potential to transcend cultural boundaries and integrate diverse disciplines.
Curated by renowned curator Ethan Cohen, the exhibition brings together five exceptional artists who delve deeply into ink expression across different cultural backgrounds and artistic practices: Li Geng, Wang Houtang, Gan Yu, Qin Feng, and Bian Hong (listed in order of age). Their works will break the established frameworks of traditional ink art, presenting ink in entirely new dimensions of form, concept, and cultural dialogue through various media such as painting, installation, and video.
It is worth noting that one of the featured artists, Mr. Wang Houtang, has gained international recognition for his unique Kung Fu Ink art. Born in 1952, he began practicing calligraphy and martial arts from a young age, seamlessly blending the spirit and dynamism of Chinese calligraphy with the power of martial arts to create a distinctive writing style and aesthetic realm. His participation will undoubtedly infuse the exhibition with profound traditional roots and powerful innovative energy, vividly interpreting the Eastern philosophy of "the fusion of culture and martial arts." In line with Mr. Wang Houtang’s longstanding vision, this exhibition aspires to serve as a bridge, bringing the profound and dynamic essence of traditional Chinese culture to a broader international stage and fostering deeper understanding and appreciation across cultures.
The exhibition will commence with an opening reception on February 5, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, inviting guests from all walks of life to witness the launch of this artistic celebration. Additionally, to deepen academic exchange, an Artists’ Talk and Panel Discussion will be held on February 21 from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, hosted by Tess Howsam and Dr. Gan Yu, where the artists will share their creative philosophies and practical insights.
This exhibition is sponsored by Kung Fu Ink, ink 功夫墨社, an organization dedicated to promoting contemporary Chinese ink art, and organized by Culture Lab LIC. We look forward to the Modern Ink exhibition, where audiences can not only appreciate the diverse faces of ink art in the contemporary era but also experience the inspirational collisions and infinite possibilities brought about by cultural convergence. Let us embrace this artistic journey that transcends media and bridges East and West with an open mind.
