曾梵志1964年出生于湖北武汉的1 个普通家庭，父母都是1 家印刷厂的工人。年少的曾梵志是内向的，在学校不爱说话，还经常回答不上来老师的提问，班上仅有的三位没有加入少先队的先生 ，他是其中1 个。日后，这1 伤痛进入《面具》系列中表现的1 个瞬间。
学校渐渐成为曾梵志讨厌 的地方。16岁，初中毕业时他说什么都不情愿 再上学了，“我没有办法在学校那个环境待下去，天天都觉得痛苦，我就求我父母让我走上社会。”曾妈妈终究 拗不过儿子，由曾爸爸找了1 个在印刷厂的工作，少年曾梵志走上社会了，“差不多就是童工”。
“走上社会也好，我开始慢慢清楚本身 想要什么。”曾梵志结识了一名 比他大十岁的邻居，这位邻居大哥由于 没有考上湖北美术学院油画系的研讨 生，闲来无事，就教曾梵志画画。他们几乎天天在一同 画画，没过几年，曾梵志便不再去印刷厂。
17岁时，他与1 些热爱美术的朋友到处游历，在北京和上海接触了东方 的古代 画家的作品，非常震惊。他立志进入艺术的殿堂学习，却由于 文明 课不好，连续四年高考都名落孙山。1987年，23岁的曾梵志终究 如愿成为湖北美院油画系8名重生 之1 ，而当年油画系的教师则有12位。这份荣耀令他父母约请 了所有街坊来庆祝。

进入学校后，学校的教学方式和好先生 的标准跟本身 的想象有些出入。自认为当时已 是自在 艺术家的曾梵志喜欢自在 的形态 ，喜欢去外面看各种展览，但同时又要按照学校的方式去完成作业，去考试。当自在 艺术家和学校好先生 有着诸多矛盾时，曾梵志认为应当 找1 个更适合本身 表达情感的，表达内心形态 创作作品的1 个方向。
在美院，受德国表现主义的影响，曾梵志与苏派教学渐行渐远，课余创作那些日后被评价为“带有启示性表现主义色彩”的画作。到了大学三年级，他直接将课余创作带进课堂，遭到了两极化的评价，“年纪大的反对，给我打68分，但是年轻老师给我打98分”。
曾梵志大学三年级时创作了《忧郁的人》。这幅同学的肖像画，让曾梵志学会了如何用本身 的感情去表达本身 所要描绘的对象，记录了曾梵志艺术发展的转变。1992年，他以500元的价格将这幅画出售给1 家基金会。19年以后 ，成名以后 的曾梵志，用超过千万的重金回购了这幅作品。
当同学们都按照老师的要求奔赴西藏或黄土高原去体验生活的时候，曾梵志却留在了武汉，画他熟悉的街道和生活。曾梵志当时住在武汉1 所病院 的隔壁，他住的房子没有卫生间 ，因而 他每天经过武汉这家病院 的走廊借用卫生间 ，四周 或焦急或茫然的病人们逐步 成为曾梵志每日所见的必须，手术台、人体、痉挛的眼神，这些元素在曾梵志91年到94年的作品中呈现出来，让他1 下子就摆脱了模仿形态 ，跨入成熟。
曾梵志，1995年参加“1979年以来中国前卫艺术展”（巴塞罗纳圣莫尼卡艺术中心）。1996年参加“中国展”（波恩艺术博物馆）。1997年参加“首届当代艺术学术约请 展”（中国美术馆）。1998年举办“曾梵志个展1993-1998”（地方 美术学院画廊、香格纳画廊）。作品多为瑞士、德国、香港及国内收藏家收藏。
毕业时，曾梵志被分到武汉1 家广告公司，理由是油画专业正好与广告公司所需的“去大街上画画”对口。到那当前 曾梵志自然很失望，“当年体制不是好事，它会把你专业废掉。”
因而 继续坚持从大学开始的自在 创作，画肉联系列、画协和病院 题材、画市井小巷的粗茶淡饭，也画人性的敌视和暴力倾向——这些画面是对青年曾梵志当时饱受熬煎 的个人情感、挫败感和焦虑感的集中展现 。“我当年那样画画是不被主流允许的，属于资产阶级自在 泛滥，他们不会说你服从 内心感受。”
美国《艺术旧事 》一名 艺术评论的撰写者来武汉考察后，在杂志上发表了曾梵志《协和三联画》系列作品。这让曾梵志高兴坏了，恨不得天天打开这本杂志给人家看。
不久，《江苏画刊》跟着刊登了此系列作品。1991年夏，著名艺术评论家栗宪庭让曾梵志寄几张作品图片给他，并在香港刊物《21世纪》为其写了1 篇评论文章。栗宪庭第二次来找曾梵志时，还带来了香港汉雅轩老板张颂仁，那是曾梵志第1 次卖画，价格2000美元，是那些拿工资的人好几年的收入。张颂仁还向曾梵志发出“后89中国新艺术”展览约请 。
受到关注，让曾梵志对将来 充满了希望。“ 后89中国新艺术的展览，让我觉得我走的这条艺术之路是对的。我们关注内心、关注社会这类 艺术表达方向是对的。”除了有了鼓励和决心 外，这1 次卖画经历也让曾梵志敢到北京来，租个房子画画。
2014年2月，拍卖场的追捧、学术平台的认可，艺术家曾梵志正走出中国当代艺术家的群体效应。在巴黎市立当代美术馆举办的曾梵志首个法国回顾展落幕。39件作品用倒叙的方式给东方 提供了1 次了解“完全 曾梵志”的机会，为期4个月的展览迎来超过5万观众。展览闭幕当天，此次展览的主导者巴黎市立当代美术馆馆长法布里斯艾尔高特（Fabrice Hergott）接受新京报记者专访。他指出，尽管筹备展览前也有不少反对声音，但该馆首次采用与欧美艺术家完全对等的方式为中国艺术家做个展，是由于 “美术馆要展现 世界性，我们应当 接受来自不同国家的艺术。”
展览汇集了曾梵志1990年至2013年创作的39件作品，其中就包括他最具有代表性的“面具”系列，如《面具系列6号》，还有2004年的作品《肖像》。

社会活动
曾梵志在参加时尚界的慈善拍卖时，就曾捐出过1 米七的大画，让主办方感激不尽。此外，曾梵志每年还拿出12万，在母校设立优秀先生 奖学金；每年拿出10万美金，帮助 北大古代 艺术档案的研讨 工作。曾梵志说本身 之前 也有过困难的时候，当时也接受过别人的帮助，爱心是需求 传递的。对于这些在地震中丧失行走能力但仍旧热爱艺术的孩子们，曾梵志通过记者传达鼓励的话。 在地震发生后，曾梵志也到过地震灾区。“我刚开始的时候先是听别人说了1 些关于‘艺术助残’的事情，后来见到周春芽听他详细地告诉我以后 ，我决定支持并真正地参与到这个活动中来。”之前不少社会各界人士都对“艺术助残”慷慨解囊，曾梵志也毫不例外，他1 口气捐赠了35万人民币，这成为“5 彩基金”成立以来收到的最大1 笔单人捐赠。周春芽对曾梵志的善举表示出由衷的赞美 ，他说：“为了让这1 大笔善款发挥更大的作用，我们决定用这笔钱专门设立1 个‘5 彩基金·曾梵志艺术奖学金’，用作残疾孩子在艺术院校深造的学费，只需 他们考上大学，奖学金正式开始启动。”慈善晚宴，曾梵志也出席了。

曾梵志的作品以其严谨而独特的外型 ，假面具的符号，在单纯而平静的背景衬托下，归纳 着当下人们的精神形态 ，烦躁、不安.尽管带有卡通的色彩和调侃的滋味 ，仍给人以沉重感和压制 感。他的作品在写实的外框下，采用隐喻和意味 的表现主义手法，给人留下鲜明的印象。 作品热议 对于曾梵志的《最初 的晚饭 》，朱其说，杰出艺术家的作品可以成就高价。但要满足1 些必要条件。 首先，画家的作品是否得到了学术界的共同认可？如果艺术史都评价1 个人的作品成为了1 个时期的代表作，即便他本人不是顶尖的艺术家，最少 也能够获得艺术史评价对其作品价格的支持 。 第二，画家的作品价格是否公允？不能是只要 1 场拍卖会上你出现个天价，你所有的作品就都能水涨船高。在国外，1 个画家的身价，取决于10家~ 20家世界上顶尖的艺术基金会给出的平均报价。比如1 个画家可能卖过1 幅1亿元的画作，但5年来只要 这1 幅达到过1亿元，其他的作品都在2000万元摆布 ，那么1亿元的那幅作品带有偶发性，不能算作能够代表你作品的真实的价格。 当然，即便是毕加索这样伟大的画家，他的作品价格也存在差距，那些具有历史代表性、得到过艺术品评价的作品，价格必然 高于他的小品画。但市场对其作品的平均价位是有预期的。 “曾梵志的作品没有理由卖到这么高。我认为还是1 个地区炒作价格。在台湾也曾经出现过这类 情况，某1 个艺术家的作品被本钱 疯狂追逐，但跃出这个地区，没有人认可这样的价格。” 第三，1 件拍品的落锤价是不是真实的 交割价？事实上，在拍卖落锤后交割后，可能还有很多外人不了解的协议方式。比如艺术家还会多送买家几幅作品，等因而 买家出了1 笔钱买了画家1 批画。“但有些天价拍品即便是买1 幅送1 批，买家最初 也不买单。” 北京大学文明 产业研讨 院副院长陈少峰在接受本刊记者采访时表示，曾梵志的天价作品在东方 主导的零碎 当中 ，与国内的作品没有可比性。而所谓的零碎 ，也能够 看成是1 个圈子。“你进不了这个圈子，你就是外行，有好东西也卖不出好价钱。” “曾梵志的天价对国内很多人来讲，是没成心 义的，由于 那是东方 的定价零碎 和香港的拍卖零碎 合作的产物，与国内艺术零碎 不对应，也能够 说没有任何指点 意义。”陈少峰表示。中国没有当代艺术？ 有人说，曾梵志作品的天价，会让中国当代艺术热起来。朱其却说，中国当代艺术如今 没有热，今后十年也不会热了。“艺术市场是不受报纸的影响，如果全国的报纸今天都报道股市要涨，可能明天股市在人气作用下就真的会上涨。在艺术品市场，买东西的始终是那1 小批人，他们不受媒体影响，媒体说市场会火，到下半年可能还是没人气。” 虽然已 “得罪”了不少人，但朱其还在强调，严厉 说来，那些明星艺术家也不能算作是当代艺术家。由于 他们用的艺术表现言语 ，还停留在“二战”之前 ，比如表现主义，或者上世纪50、60年代的波普艺术，那些都不能算做是当代艺术。当代艺术应当 以多媒体为载体，而且基本上不包括绘画。 “如今 很多人说本身 是当代艺术家，当我没有见到1 个画家贡献了1 种新的艺术言语 。只要 贡献了1 种新的言语 模式，才能说你的作品是当代艺术。我们如今 只能是当代题材绘画。在中国，那些所谓的当代艺术家，大部分是名不副实的。在国外也是这样，弗洛伊德绘画也很不错，但没有人说他是当代艺术家。1 些作品可以说是后古代 绘画，但后古代 绘画也不能成为当代艺术。” 在朱其看来，曾梵志使用的是德国表现主义的言语 ，严厉 讲不算当代艺术。“我们这十年来有1 个曲解 ，就是把1 批惯于使用上世纪20年代到60年代绘画言语 的画家，称之为当代艺术家代表。这是不对的。但也有人反驳说他反应了当代生活，但表现手法上你还是用了早已有之的言语 ，由于 艺术史首先是言语 史。”

Born in 1964 in Hubei, Wuhan, an ordinary family, parents are a printing factory workers. The young Zeng is introverted, in school don't love to talk, often answer the teacher's question, only three did not join the young pioneers students in the class, he is one of them. After the pain into a "Mask" series of instant manifestation.
The school has gradually become Zeng place aversion. 16 years old, when he graduated from junior high school, he said nothing is willing to go to school, I have no way to stay in the school environment, every day feel pain, I begged my parents let me go to society." Once my mother eventually fail to beat his son, the father found a job in the printing factory, the young Zeng go on society, "is about the child".
"Go to society or I began to slowly clear what they want." Zeng made a ten years older than his neighbor, the neighbor brother because there is no studies on the oil painting department of Hubei Institute of Fine Arts students, they taught Zeng. They draw together almost every day, after a few years, Zeng Fanzhi will no longer go printing factory.
At the age of 17, he traveled with some art loving friends and was exposed to Western painters in Beijing and Shanghai. He was determined to enter the palace of art learning, but because of the bad culture class, for four consecutive years college entrance exam. In 1987, 23 year old Zeng finally became the Hubei Academy of art is one of the 8 freshmen, and then the oil painting department of teachers 12. This honor invites his parents to invite all the neighbors to celebrate.
After entering the school, the school's teaching methods and the standard of students with their own imagination some discrepancy. Since that time is free artist Zeng Fanzhi love freedom, love to go out and see all kinds of exhibitions, but also according to the school's way to finish the homework, go to the examination. When liberal artists and school students have a lot of contradictions, Ceng Fanzhi think should find a more suitable for their emotional expression, express the inner state of creative work in a direction.
The Academy of fine arts, influenced by German Expressionism, Zeng Fanzhi and Jiangsu school extracurricular teaching gradually, the creation of the day has been appraised as "apocalyptic expressionism paintings". To the University of the third grade, he will direct the spare creation into the classroom by polarization evaluation, "old opposition, give me a 68 points, but the young teacher gave me a 98 points".
Zeng University of the third grade when the creation of "melancholy". A classmate portrait, let Zeng learned how to express itself to describe their feelings, record the change of Zeng art development. In 1992, he sold the painting to a foundation for $500. 19 years later, after the fame of Zeng Zhi, with more than ten million heavily repurchased this piece of work.
When the students are in accordance with the requirements of the teacher went to Tibet or the Loess Plateau to experience life, once Vatican has stayed in Wuhan, painting his familiar streets and life. The next Ceng Fanzhi was living in a hospital in Wuhan, he lived in the house without Restroom, so he every day after the hospital corridor from Wuhan Restroom, or around the anxious or dazed patients gradually become a must see Zeng daily, the operating table and the human body, spasm of the eyes, these elements in Zeng will 91 years to show 94 years of work, let him suddenly get rid of the state of imitation, entered the mature.
Zeng Fanzhi, 1995 to participate in "since 1979 Chinese avant-garde art exhibition" (Barcelona Santa Monica Art Center). 1996 China Exhibition (Bonn Art Museum). 1997 to participate in the "first contemporary art Academic Invitational Exhibition" (China Art Museum). Held in 1998 "Zeng exhibition 1993-1998" (China Central Academy of Fine Arts, Shanghart Gallery). Works for Switzerland, Germany, Hongkong and domestic collectors.
Upon graduation, Zeng was assigned to an advertising company in Wuhan, the reason is oil painting professional advertising company and just needed "to go to the street to draw". When it came to Zeng naturally disappointed, "when the system is not good, it will destroy your professional."
Then continue to start from the University of the free creation, painting meat series, painting painting theme, Xiehe Hospital marketplace alley also painted human homely fare, hostility and violence - the pictures of young Zeng was suffering from personal emotions, frustration and anxiety on display. "I did not allow the painting is the mainstream, bourgeois spread, they will not say that you comply with the feelings."
American Art News, a writer of art reviews came to Wuhan after the investigation, published in the magazine Zeng Vatican "concord triple painting" series works. This makes Zeng happy, wish every day to open the magazine to see.

Soon, "Jiangsu pictorial" with the series of works published. The summer of 1991, the famous art critic Li Xianting let Zeng send a few pictures to him, and in the Hongkong journal "twenty-first Century" to write a commentary. Li Xianting second times to find Zeng Fanzhi, also brought Hongkong hanyaxuan boss Zhang Songren, is that Zeng first sale, the price is $2000, the wage earners for several years income. Zhang Songren also to Zeng Chi issued "after the 89 China new art" exhibition invitation.
Attention, let Zeng Zhi Zhi is full of hope for the future. "After the 89 China new art exhibition, let me think I go this art road is right. We are concerned about the inner, concerned about the social expression of this artistic direction is right." In addition to the encouragement and confidence, the sale experience also let Zeng dare to come to Beijing, rent a house.
In February 2014, after the auction platform, academic recognition, artist Zeng Fanzhi is out of the China group effect of contemporary artists. Held in the Paris City Museum of contemporary art, Zeng Fanzhi's first retrospective exhibition ended in france. 39 works provides a complete understanding of Zeng "opportunity with a flashback to the west, 4 month exhibition attracted more than 50 thousand spectators.

social activities
Ceng Fanzhi at a charity auction in the fashion industry, had donated over seven meters high, let the organizers indebted forever. In addition, Zeng also took out 120 thousand year, set up a scholarship for outstanding students at his alma mater; $100 thousand per year, the research work funded North modern art archives. Zeng Vatican said he had had a difficult time, then also accepted the help of others, love is the need to pass. For the loss of the ability to walk but still love art in children in the earthquake, Zeng conveyed by reporters encouraging words. After the earthquake, Zeng also visited the earthquake stricken area. "When I started the first listen to others to say something about the" art ZhuCan 'thing, later saw Zhou Chunya heard him tell me clearly, I decided to really participate in this event and support." Before a lot of people from all walks of life to the "art ZhuCan" generosity, Zeng is no exception, his breath donated 350 thousand yuan, which became the "colorful fund since the establishment of the largest single donation received. Zhou Chunya of Ceng Fanzhi charity expressed appreciation, he said: "in order to make a lot of money to play a greater role, we decided to set up a" colorful fund, Zeng Fanzhi art scholarship "with the money used for disabled children to study in art college tuition fees, as long as they are admitted to the University, the scholarship officially started." The charity dinner, Zeng also attended.

Ceng Fanzhi works with its rigorous and unique style, the mask symbol, in a simple and quiet background, interpretation of contemporary people's mental state, irritability, restlessness. Although with cartoon color and taste of ridicule, still give a person with heaviness and depression. He works in the realistic frame, the expressionism of metaphor and symbol, leaving a clear impression. Hot work for Zeng Zhi Zhi's "Last Supper", Zhu said that outstanding works of artists can achieve high prices. But to meet some of the necessary conditions. First, whether the painter's works have been recognized by the academic community? If art history evaluates a person's work as a representative of a period, even if he himself is not a top artist, at least it can get the support of the evaluation of the art history to the price of his works. Second, the painter's work price is fair? Not only is an auction you have a price, all of your work could rise. Abroad, a painter's worth depends on the average offer of 10 ~ 20 top art foundations in the world. For example, an artist may have sold a 100 million yuan paintings, but 5 years only this one reached 100 million yuan, the other works in 20 million yuan, then 100 million yuan that works with sporadic, not as to represent the real price of your work. Of course, even Picasso such a great painter, the price of his work there are gaps, those with historical representation, has been evaluated works of art, the price must be higher than his sketch. But the average market price of its work is expected. "Zeng's works have no reason to sell such a high. I think the price is still a regional speculation. In Taiwan have appeared in such a situation, an artist's work was out of the capital crazy chase, but no one recognized area, so the price." Third, a lot of the hammer price is not the real delivery price? In fact, in the auction hammer after delivery, there may be many outsiders do not understand the agreement. For example, artists will send buyers several works, is tantamount to the buyer out of a sum of money to buy a group of artists painting. "But some auction price even buy a send a group of buyers, and finally do not pay." Chen Shaofeng, vice president of Peking University Institute of cultural industry in an interview with reporters, said Zeng Fanzhi's astronomical works in the Western dominated system, and domestic works are not comparable. The so-called system, can also be seen as a circle. You can not enter this circle, you are layman, there are good things can not sell a good price." "The price of Zeng of many people in China is concerned, there is no sense, because it is the pricing system of the West and Hongkong auction system is the product of cooperation, and does not correspond to the domestic art system, also can be said to have no significance." Chen Shaofeng said. China has no contemporary art? Some people say, Zeng works price, will make China hot contemporary art. Zhu said, Chinese contemporary art is not hot, the next ten years will not be hot. "The art market is not affected by the newspaper, if the national newspaper today reported that the stock market to rise, the stock market may be popular in the future will really rise. In the art market, buy something that is always a small group of people, they are not influenced by the media, the media said the market will fire, to the second half of the year may still not popular." Although has offended many people, but Zhu also stressed that strictly speaking, those star artists can not be counted as contemporary artists. Because they use the language of artistic expression, still remain in the "World War II" in the past, such as expressionism, or 50 of the last century, 60s pop art, those who are not regarded as contemporary art. Contemporary art should be based on multimedia, and basically does not include painting. "Now many people say they are contemporary artists, when I did not see a painter contributed a new art language. Only by contributing a new language pattern can you say that your work is contemporary art. We can only be contemporary theme painting. In Chinese, those so-called contemporary artists, most is more in name than in reality. In foreign countries too, Freud painting is also very good, but no one said he was a contemporary artist. Some works can be said to be post-modern painting, but post-modern painting can not become contemporary art." In the view of Zeng Zhu, using the German expressionist language, strictly speaking is not contemporary art. "We have a misunderstanding of the past ten years, is the number of used on 20s to 60s century painting painter, known as the representative of contemporary artists. It's not a correct thing to do actually. But others retort that he has reacted to contemporary life, but you still use the language you already have, because art history is the first language history."
