前言：在过去的几年里，从图像上去辨认韩冬的影子世界，他努力讲述的故事并没有发生在柏拉图洞穴这个假想地点，反倒来自移动的旅行途中；不可否认，这个边走边看的静谧诱惑在韩冬审慎、界限与想象三者之间已经达到了一种几乎可以无限延伸的叙述，正在这个时候，奥德修斯又听见塞壬歌声了：隐藏的潘朵拉、永不终结的迷乱、海德格尔的世界之烦、远古身份的回归以及艺术家个人传统的再一次苏醒…现在你们看到的，恰恰是你们尚未辨认的图画，但是只要你们靠近它们，就象在博物馆，幽暗的灯光之下，你们的鼻子贴紧了隔离玻璃，同一时间，好像伸手一抓，稍纵即逝，你握住了那瞬间，你与那幅图画之间的距离消失了，那依然安详的面相神奇地呈现，不为所动，无法颠覆，一切精神困惑都烟消云散了…或许吧！   / 吴 亮

Before Interpretation    Written by Wu Liang

In the past few years, while trying to interpret the shadowy world of Han Dong’s artworks, I found that the stories he attempts to tell was not took place in the fictitious Platonic Grotto, but incubated on his ongoing journeys. Beyond all doubt, between the contemplation, thresholds and imagination, he has been observing along the way, such a tranquil temptation enables Han Dong with a way of storytelling that is almost pervasive and limitless, at that very moment, Odysseus could once again hear the Sirens’ song: the hidden Pandora, the never-ending labyrinth, the ‘Sorge’ of Heidegger, the return of the primitive identity, as well as the reawakening of the artistic individual tradition… what is presenting in front of you right now, are the images before interpretation, however, as long as you were approaching, as if in a museum, beneath a pale light, pressing your nose against the glass, in the meantime, almost feel like grasping something, something so profound, yet transient, you could seize the very moment, the boundary between you and the painting thus disappear, the serene countenances of the paintings present themselves to you, solid and steady, all that is delusory and melancholy would melt into air… perhaps!
