身体何以能够绘画？——梅洛—庞蒂绘画美学述评

梅洛—庞蒂绘画美学的核心,在于把身体确定为绘画活动的主体,认为画家不是靠心灵,而是靠身体在绘画。身体之所以能够绘画,是因为身体能够使世界变得可见,而绘画的目的就是要揭示世界的可见性之谜。身体的特殊性在于,它既是能见的,又是可见的,这种两重性使它能够与世界进行内在的相互交流,正是这种交流构成了绘画活动的基础,诸如色彩、线条、深度等＂存在的枝条＂对画家来说才变得可见,并通过绘画得以表现。

Why can the body paint——Aesthetic Review of Merleau—Ponty’s painting

The aesthetic core of Merleau—Ponty＇s painting consists in the body identified as the main subject of painting,which considers that the painters depend on the body rather than the mind.Body is able to paint because the body can make the world visible and the purpose of painting is to reveal the mystery of the visibility of the world.The body can be seen and is visible,and the duality makes it interactive communication with the world.It is the communication that constitutes the basis for painting activities.The ＂existing branches＂ such as color,line,and depth are visible to the painters and represented through the paintings.
