“来自天堂的明信片”--- Jai Datt油画展
“这里没有旅程 而是心路历程——God.com”
“来自天堂的明信片”,这是意大利艺术家Jai Datt对自己作品的概括,这些色彩强烈,感觉奔放,肌理效果显著的抽象油画,纪录了Jai Datt在印度潜心创作20多年的心路历程。此次在三尚艺术•上海空间的个展是Jai Datt全世界范围内的第一次展览。
Jai Datt被印度深邃的文化——人类文明的根——所吸引,他的作品就是他精神修炼的艺术表现,表达着一种内省的力量,就如他在印度感觉到的:有一种力量使自己沉静、充实,并把这种力量推广出去,使周围的人都感到光明。他曾经是很成功的时尚摄影师,每年去印度两次,做一些慈善工作,已经有25年。这些作品是从他在这25年里创作的作品中精心挑选出来的。开幕时间Jai Datt将他自己编辑制作的音乐和DV作品一起呈现给观众。

"There is no journey but the inner journey" God.com "post cards from Heaven"
Exhibition of tantric Paintings by Gian Paolo Barberis (Jai Datt)
"These paintings are the ultimate step of a long journey into myself,which started officially 33 years ago. My art is my soul trip and vice versa. Painting was and is the way to reach and to be always connected with my Self and from Him take nourishment and help in any difficult path of this long journey. A trip from darkness to the light of our inner center, from where everything starts and where everything ends, in a comprehensive work, life after life.
These paintings are meditations. I just report from my journey what I have seen in me at the end and I offer it as "postcards from Heaven". God is Light and Love spreading Light and Love in every creature. The duty is find Him and be happy forever. This kind of expression is called in India Tantra art: art to reach consciousness, known since thousand years as a way to be full time in inner communication with Self. The artist is a channel of his Self communications, a spiritual traveler, and a seeker of his inner Truth. Knowing it means be totally free. The aim of his artistic expression is to remember who you really are, never forget, and go on and on and grow like a tree. And might be... it can help other travelers?
I offer this exhibition, my first in
