蔡國強是當代中國最具有國際影響力的藝術家之一,二十幾年來,他的藝術足跡幾乎遍及所有的國際大展,在眾多世界著名的藝術殿堂舉辦過展覽,如紐約大都會博物館、紐約現代美術館、倫敦泰德現代藝術館、巴黎蓬皮杜藝術中心等,其主要作品被這些博物館所永久收藏,同時,應世界各地政府與機構的邀請,他成功地實現了一系列規模宏大的藝術計畫,將中國傳統的火藥藉以藝術的通道輸往世界,並賦予了其璀璨奪目的新的生機。二〇〇八年蔡國強的大型回顧展在紐約古根海姆博物館舉辦,該展覽被美國《新聞週刊》評為「具爆炸性,且絢爛」,是該館史上參觀人數最多的視覺藝術展,也是該館頭一次舉辦的中國藝術家個展。
火藥一直是蔡國強專屬的標誌性創作手段,在完成很多重要的大型裝置作品之前,蔡國強都會專門製作火藥畫草圖,這一件《黑夜之狼:為德國古根漢美術館作的草圖》便是為他於二〇〇六年完成的代表作《撞牆》而創作的一幅草圖,此作的另外一幅草圖已和這件裝置作品一起被德意志銀行收藏。曾多次於國際頂尖美術館展出的《撞牆》可謂是蔡國強裝置作品中的翹楚:九十九頭狼列隊沖向一面透明的牆。它們的行為並非不循常理,而是它們沒有更好的判斷。在仔細觀察之下,它們都顯得專注而兇猛。這種專心致志、不假思索投向死神懷抱的原始心態值得讓人深思。《黑夜之狼:為德國古根漢美術館作的草圖》在爆破的焦痕與噴散的粉末間隱約得見一匹奔馳狀的原野之狼。由於火藥這一源自中國傳統文化的特殊材質,更烘托出若隱若現的野狼疾馳躍起的身姿,猶如中國畫中的筆墨靈動,生機盎然。虛實之間,生命的激情與幻滅均已躍然紙上,呼之欲現。
