Chinese Contemporary Buddhist Art Exhibition U.S. Tour – New York

構建中美文化，推動世界和平
中國當代佛教藝術美國巡展 • 紐約
Chinese Contemporary Buddhist Art Exhibition U.S. Tour – New York

由美國中國文化中心、亞洲交流與合作基金會主辦，慧橋（美國）咨詢公司承辦的《中國當代佛教藝術美國巡展• 紐約》即將在2017年4月8日至11日紐約舉辦。本次巡展為紐約的觀眾呈現由五位中國藝術大師（姜雪雁、凌海成、王志遠、釋本如、林良豐）所帶來的近150件風格多樣但都不乏中國特色與當代氣息的佛教藝術作品。參展的五位藝術家不僅是多年從事佛教藝術創作的翹楚，更是著作等身的專家學者，或是素有修爲的高僧居士。書法、繪畫、攝影，無論是傳統技藝還是現代科技，此次作品都突出了當代中國藝術家對基礎佛教義理的理解和表現、對傳統佛教藝術的繼承和發展。

展覽緣起
2016年8月24 日，中國亞太交流與合作基金會執行副主席肖武男應聯合國多家機構、加州政府和相關機構的邀請，出訪了紐約和洛杉磯，就如何在聯合國的框架範圍內，推動和加強中國與世界各地的人文交流，及創建中美人文交流常態機制等事宜，進行了卓有成效的訪問，取得豐富訪問成果。

中國佛教藝術，源遠流長，像一條大河，綿延已近兩千年。時至今日，中國人還在孜孜以求，採用今天的智慧和技巧，再續往日的風采和精華。《中國當代佛教藝術美國巡展》就是這種嘗試和努力的一點展示，是依然生機勃勃的中國佛教藝術之豹的一個美麗的斑點。
首席書法家沛溪王志遠博士，以大氣磅礡的書法演繹佛法，古稀運毫，筆走龍蛇。來自終南山淨業寺的大和尚大和尚本如法師，以禅修爲基，冷峻高古，出塵脫俗。來自安徽的畫家姜雪雁女士帶來她獨具匠心的“千年佛相”系列的一部分佳作，以唯善唯美的工筆畫法描繪曆史上各佛教地區的菩薩形像，是佛教繪畫界中前所未有的創新之舉。來自廈門的林良豐先生深得敦煌壁畫精髓三昧，古風盎然，幽默靈動，卻不失法度莊嚴。而佛教學者及攝影家淩海成先生展出的是他跨越千山萬水、遍覽歷代石窟所拍下的佛窟淨土。

本次巡展不僅將中國當代佛教藝術帶到美國，更是聯合國“以文明對話，推動世界和平”的系列活動之一，爲配合聯合國後千年發展目標而積極籌辦的。因此，展覽不僅得到美國西來大學、美國漢天衛視、國際佛光會紐約協會、北京四德文化傳播有限公司的協力支持，還收到佛光山星雲大師的祝福，紐約站開幕當天也邀請了中國宗教學會、亞洲交流與合作基金會執行副主席肖武男先生、以及眾多知名學者和社會活動家。本次活動將成為2017年年初中美文化交流、東西文明對話的一個焦點。
