蛇王 King Cobra
创作灵感 Inspiration
王者归来,艺高一筹
自古埃及以来,“蛇”就是王权的守护神与权利的象征。脱胎于瞿广慈艺术原作的最“原汁原味”的经典“小胖人”怀旧形象,稀奇的《蛇王》立于高台之上,手中紧紧攥住“权力的金蛇杖”,象征“高高在上,位高权重”之意。
稀奇小胖人冷峻而诙谐的面部表情细节,营造了一种复杂而意味深长的情态,这其中蕴含黑色幽默的深层隐喻与当代艺术的波普趣味,在留给观众细细品味之余,更凸显了这件作品“艺高一筹”的高级感,以及稀奇独一无二的艺术基因与气质。
The King Returns—Art Above All
Since ancient Egypt, the serpent has stood for royal power and divine guardianship. Drawn directly from Guangci Qu’s iconic “Chubby Man” series, XIQI’s Serpent King rises on a plinth, clutching a gleaming golden serpent staff—an emblem of unassailable authority.
The figure’s cool yet droll expression carries a layered, almost sardonic undertone. Between pop-art wit and a hint of dark humor, the work invites lingering reflection while declaring its own supremacy—art a cut above. In every line and glaze, it embodies the singular DNA and character that define XIQI ART.

瞿广慈
作为中国艺术界含金量最高的奖项——每五年一次的第八届全国美展大奖,有史以来最年轻的获得者,瞿广慈从90年代走出学院的大门,到在全世界受邀参展的不到十年间,便以其才华横溢的“革命的浪漫主义”、“集体主义”等系列作品为代表,成为了中国当代艺术中最有影响力的雕塑家之一。其标志性作品“小胖人”的形象,不仅是中国当代艺术视觉中具有社会影响力的经典符号,也代表着其非凡的原创力,延续至稀奇艺术的生命之中。
Qu Guangci, the youngest-ever winner of the Grand Prize at the prestigious 8th National Art Exhibition of China—a top honor in the Chinese art world—emerged from academia in the 1990s, swiftly gaining international recognition within less than a decade. Renowned for his compelling series of artworks such as Revolutionary Romanticism and Collectivism, Qu's creative brilliance has established him as one of China's leading contemporary artists, receiving global invitations to exhibit. His iconic and vibrant artistic style, characterized by revolutionary romanticism and collective symbolism, has significantly influenced the visual identity and continuing legacy of XIQI ART, bringing forth renewed life and creative expression.
