“我相信新的毕加索将诞生在中国！”

——专访西班牙国家艺术协会主席何塞

（2015年1月，中国上海）近日，西班牙国家艺术协会（简称：ANACART）主席何塞（Jose Ruiz-Caparros）先生在接受雅昌艺术网记者专访时就中国艺术市场的现状展现出莫大的信心和期许。

据何塞先生介绍，西班牙国家艺术协会是在西班牙政府支持下，具有加泰罗尼亚政府认证而成立的用于文化与艺术传播和交流的机构，协会立足于欧洲、放眼于全球，旨在通过为中西方的当代艺术家及收藏家创建一个专业的艺术交流平台，从而促进文化的传播与发展。

回顾刚刚过去的一年，西班牙国家艺术协会在中国已成功举办多场活动，带领本土藏家及公众走进西班牙文化与艺术经典的世界。同时，凭借包括艺术北京、上海第18届艺术博览会、中欧商学院20周年校庆邀请展、光大银行艺术投资论坛等在内的一系列艺术活动也在中国市场收获了一定的人气并取得了不错的市场反馈。

“中国拥有一个巨大且复杂的艺术市场，它在过去的五六年里呈现出井喷式的增长，我坚信它将在今后的25年内发展成为全球最重要的艺术市场。”就中国艺术市场的现状及前景，何塞先生表示，“这样一个蓬勃的市场环境对于我们向中国藏家推广西班牙乃至欧洲的当代艺术品具有极大的优势。此外，相比于以商业为目的开展艺术交流活动以促进市场交易，我们更愿意肩负起传承文化艺术的使命，通过引入西方成熟的艺术市场运作模式、开展文化宣传及艺术普及，从而引导投资者理性购买艺术品，逐渐在中国形成健康的艺术交流大环境。”对于中国艺术市场的投资环境，何塞先生认为，伴随着中国当代艺术市场即将呈现未来的经济泡沫，藏家选择价格透明的西方艺术品进行投资则更为稳妥。

虽然，就目前而言，西方当代艺术仍没有系统而深入地融入中国市场，但相信西班牙国家艺术协会的到来将有助于改变这一现状。协会将借助其在西方艺术市场的影响力，担当起中西方文化与艺术宣传大使的角色，在逐渐打开中国艺术市场面向国际窗口的同时，也鼓励西方藏家加强对中国当代艺术家的了解和认识。基于这一使命，何赛先生对于中国艺术市场未来的发展充满信心，并预示中国未来年轻的艺术家中将诞生新的毕加索！
