Ink Wash and Calligraphy: Contemporary Hanging Methods

A contemporary mounted ink wash painting. The painting itself features abstract ink washes or minimalist calligraphy, mounted on a plain panel of the same color as the wall. The outer frame is a two-centimeter-wide dark fine wood frame or antique bronze fine frame, without traditional silk scroll ends or hanging cords. The artwork is hung alone on a dark wall, very large in scale, illuminated by a narrow light from above. The surrounding walls are completely empty. Avoid: using traditional scrolls and silk mounting, hanging multiple pieces on the same wall, using antique reproductions with inscriptions and seals, hanging the artwork too high or making it too small.

一件當代裱裝的水墨作品。畫心是抽象的墨色渲染或極簡的書法,裱在一片與牆同色的素面板上,外框是一圈兩公分寬的深色細木框或古銅細框,沒有傳統的綾絹軸頭與吊繩。作品單獨掛在一面深色的牆上,尺幅很大,上方一道窄光照亮。周圍的牆完全空著。避免:使用傳統的卷軸與綾裱、在同一面牆掛多件作品、使用有落款印章的仿古複製品、把作品掛得過高或尺寸過小。
