Sun Xun: One of China's Most Ambitious Young Artists | Brilliant Ideas Ep. 46
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- Sun Xun is one of China’s most talented and ambitious young artists. He experiments with drawings, traditional ink paintings and woodcuts, and then uses new technologies to transform them into his artistic trademark - black and white animations. Born in 1980 in Fuxin, his works often explore and question what is known about Chinese history. In 2006 he founded his own animation studio called Pi and produces large amounts of work each year. In just under 10 years, Sun Xun has held over 30 solo exhibitions, most notably at the Hayward Gallery in London, and at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles. He has also shown his films at more than 150 film festivals worldwide, including the 8th Seoul International Film Festival and the 25th Torino Film Festival.

I worked as his interpreter a few years back when he was staying in The Netherlands as an artist in residence, really nice guy, extremely passionate about art and history. I remember how his eyes lit up when I told him you could get soy sauce in Dutch supermarkets too XD
Christina L aw that's so lovely!
wauw ik ben jaloers! lijkt me erg gaaf om met hem te werken
I bet he'd love to know it's a commodity here in the states!
weergaloos!
You can get soy sauce pretty much anywhere in the developed world.
'Questioning existing systems, this is my art.' Brilliant!
I think he is brilliant! I love his art. He is so ambitious, experimental, hard working, open minded and a true citizen of the world! He has a lot of my respect.
Really, really impressed with this guy. I find his art and personality very compelling.
Real artists are global citizens. True.
" just a tool "
I don't know why they stopped making teh brilliant idea series, truly amazing overviews of artists all around the world, wish there'd be more of these
Sun Xun is a collector.he collects different things...and I am happy,just happy for him
“The Piece of work is no a art, The film is not art, Art is about deeper spirit”
Thank
It’s all about people and feeling. I guess.
What an amazing man! This is what I call a true artist.
Asun Montero if I may ask what do you call the opposite?
his father is a very god man to recognize Sun Xun's talents and support the art dream
I noticed that too and that made me smile 😃 sometimes parents rob us of our talents and dreams and force us to get jobs so to see that he agreed on him being an artist was beautiful
Sun Xun hands down one of the best artists of his generation and future generations
When the crooks at Bloomberg promote it, you can be sure it is half-arsed work by a moderately talented man on ego-trip, chosen to be the cultural weapon against anything resembling tradition in China.
This is very inspiring. His point of view is interested and truly express what it means to be an artist. We shouldn't limit our thoughts or medium we use to create.
"I don't know what it is (his art) but I am happy". Inspiring.
Enlightening, for sure. Sun Xun is a true artist.
I love these videos, but the subtitles bother me. They're changed pretty often from what he's actually saying and it sometimes changes the meaning. I understand that his English isn't perfect, and adding occasional small grammatical changes for clarity would be ok, but there's no reason to change "past news" to "old newspapers", "changed" to "influenced", or "art was not the real end" to "art was not the end goal", other than the transcriptionist just thinks they know a better way to say what he's saying.
Have you considered doing a subtitled version? I would value it highly. Once upon a time II watched the French "Beauty and the Beast" and with my infinitesimal grasp of French noticed it very poor. .

I appreciate what they've done. Sometimes he's not using the right words to express what he's trying to say and the transcriptionist did a great job to bridge that communication. Think of it from a deaf person's perspective. Transcribing what he said literally can kill that communication.
@Vongdarakia I understand what you're saying and I agree, but I think to use the word "kill" is a bit much.
A bi-lingual person often literally translates words and thoughts from his native language. So, given the context, the choice of his English words might not be the correct one and will leave the viewers confused.
I think they had a Chinese interpreter with them who clarified some of the words which would help the translation in the end. Maybe, for e.g. he really meant to say old newspapers and not past news. If you knew Chinese people who are not fluent at English, their choice of English words is very similar to his.
i rarely watch any video all go through, but his attitude caught my eyes and i was just keep watching... His thought inspired me a lot that he is just an artist without any label where he from. great, wonderful!
Super talent young artist. It's important to express our own interpretation of the world we see, we know and we don't see and we don't know very well, and then we hear out, we learn and we adjust, keep on expressing. That's important for an artist.
absolutely magnificent artworks! He is so modern with a little dash of nostalgia from the past.
This is my first time hearing of Sun Xun, what an amazing artist and also an inspirational person. Love his work.
Incredibly inspiring. I'm surprised I've never heard of him before. This is what I need to motivate me to continue art
This man is like a powerful stream gushing out creativity very naturally. It was wonderful to see an artist possessing strong ties with his family and the world. The remarks made by Sun Xun towards the end of this clip were some good lines to ruminate on. Absolutely loved this.
Finally someone that inspires me to progress...and explore my creativity.
I m an artist and agree with him in all. We're a nature tool for the future, people of the world, of the past, present and future. 💓
True artist. True passion. True inspiration for me!
I love how artists may influence each other across all media: for instance, Sun Xun created an island on the back of a whale and truth was the significance. In music, Harry Styles created a whale shaped island where he learnt the truth of himself and his lover ( Eroda). He featured it in a music video called Adore You ( Eroda = Adore). I wonder if Harry Styles was influenced by Sun Xun? How exquisite that would be!
That's so cool! I didn't realize this
Amazing ideas through the artist, but would have appreciated less consumer overtones on what Xun’s work means. I would rather hear more on the artist’s concept than what a regular (just educated) individual has to say.
Very inspiring! Artist work not for present , Artist work for the future. Sun Xun 🙏😇❤️
"I work for my spirit" That is an amazing idea... I never thought in those terms before.
Thank you for your father's support and your passion in arts
Quite a blessing to have parents whom support ones life purpose, so often I hear of people who were not supported to take a career in the arts and many people in our society don't always recognise the significance of the arts. However art references humanity's evolution especially in the historical context. To a point... we're able to decipher the psychologies of the people past and present, certainly his work plays a significant role in Singapore's history, well in my opinion it does. It's good to question political systems, all systems to that point, interesting! Sun Xuns work is incredibly beautiful 😊
His art is really refreshing to see. Inspiring.
"politics make people crazy" YES!
His work is very political anyway
smith SMITH Everything is about politics...
But all his art embraces culture and his preference is obvious.
@@Namaster88 Not everything. That's ethnocentrism talking.
@@michellepernula872 LOL. Politics is not ethnocentric. Politics is universal.
Spellbinding and brilliant. What a master of his craft.
His work is mesmerizing!
i don't like art when you need someone to explain you how beautiful the work actually is...
"I'm also a collector, but I collect different things"
Such a positive & ambitious nation.
I love his art and passion.
Excellent video! Fascinating!
Wow! What an impressive artist!
How come there's people
critiqueing his art but not elaborating on it? It sounds like cowards who don't know what he's doing, see something political (art always had to be international right?), and are jealous of the attention. Be honest with yourself. You haven't given him a chance. This is exactly what he's talking about. You accept one type of art and opinion, but not his. All art is just one part of the truth, as shown from one person's perspective. It's not his fault his subject matter draws more attention.
an inspiring and brilliant artist, I'm so impressed!
Amazingly inspirational. Best artist I've seen in a while imo
powerful and amazing work!!!
He's a true artist. True artist represent himself (and its more important), and his culture, in one time. You can dislike it, but you can't say, that it is not art. Basicly, you never can. So just stop being ignorant.
Thank you!
Sun Xun! Wonderful, amazing, true artist!

I like seeing the artists and their art. The commentators, not so much. All I hear/see when they're onscreen is "Blah blah blah I'm pretentious and self-important blah blah blah."
I love the art. The black/white imagery is breathtaking and executed very well but the concepts leave me baffled.
His work is so powerful!!!
It's a Beautiful and Painting is My Passion 🌼🇮🇳⭐
This guy Sun Xun is clearly ten times smarter than all these, a les around him and its kinda boss, most of the interviewerees dont even speak in a way that can be comprehended, and clearly are just grifting. More power to this guy though, seems cool, but not world shattering as they describe of course.
Hermoso trabajo,, me identificó con su técnica,, de los dibujos ,, me gusta trabajar con esa libertad en mi obra plaastoca... 🤗🤗🕊️☀️😮😮😃😃😃🤗🤗
I know all art styles except his art style it's very unique his art style was like an ink painting
wow lots of hard work
Sir, your Paintings are Amazing why don't you Registered your Name in Guinness Books of Records 🎉🇮🇳⭐
Glad that Xun’s dad didn’t stop him from pursuing the true art in his heart. But his dad was wrong about one thing, being an artist cannot avoid talking about politics, especially in a country like China where histories were recreated. I like Xun’s idea to be a world citizen and only to represent himself rather than his country. Please keep being independent and delivering your own thoughts (uncensored).
Is that a green ashtray on his table, at the end of this movie?
Yes
Bellissimo video. Bravo bravo bravo artista!
Thank you for the excellent teaching video....loved the interview....
you have Worked Very Hard Sir 👏🇮🇳⭐
absolutely amazing film, well done.
Absolutely amazing!
great wonder! much wondering, even fearing, so...wonderful!
Beautiful
Such a pleasure, thank you.
This was great!
I'm surprised that he would be able to publish such art. It's rare that we see any quality art come out of China. Thanks for posting this.
China is one of the most cultured country ever. Its just covered up after the 18th century by western countries
Thank you for this amazing video
art has a deeper spirit!!!!
Brilliant Artistry. Cape Town
Very talented young man...

Toujours et encore pas de sous-titre , et pourquoi...? C'est si compliqué ?
Bruh this dude is an absolute madman.
Unique styles and thoughts. Thanks
Muy hermosos trabajos!! Gran artista!! Aunque yo amo el sumi-e más tradicional con flores, naturaleza. Gracias!!
A huge genious
Genius🥴
It's impressive how much they're able to talk about China without talking about China.
Amazing artist!
赞一个可以思考的艺术家
So enjoyed that!!!!!!
Muy inspirador, no lo conocía
amazing.....
Stunning
Super incredible artist and GREAT documentary !!!!
increiblemente buenisimo
He's amazing!
this feels so old. it's like an infomercial
The west is always interested in cultural revolution and promote art/artist around that, will they interested in the history where how China was invaded in recent history as well? And how the historical items are now in their museums?
Beau-tea-full 🌸🌿
Amazing artist i have no words
Inspiring.
Sir, Please make Some Paintings related to Peace and Harmony 🙏🇮🇳⭐
is the pressing machine different for relife of wood, lithography and etching method??
art is about perspective. if it is different, it is not necessarily ugly
Génial, it's great !!!🤗🌹❤
The main narration is fine, but get rid of the 'art explainers' - they are the bane of creativity. Sun Xun's art speaks for itself, we don't need them.
Art is whatever you think is art...
He has the spirit of the dragon. Aggressive with purpose. Not bounded by earth or country. The dragon understands we can rise above nature and the land, and let out our fire. But must return to earth and what is inside. Long live the spirit of the dragon.
Great stuff.
