从中国主题性绘画风貌谈新时期油画现实主义精神

从1949年至1966年的17年间,由于前苏联绘画的模式对中国的美术产生了广泛而深刻的影响,产生了诸多优秀的现实主义作品,促使了我国现实主义油画的崛起。改革开放以来,西方现代派艺术对我国文化艺术的渗透,使现实主义绘画遭遇了尴尬,并逐渐被淡化和边缘化。新时期重振现实主义精神,应充分发挥和体现现实主义艺术的丰富性和多样化,不能仅囿于写实性或浮于对现实生活的一般性理解。如今,要发挥写实性的优长,图绘当代人的生活和精神面貌,我们不仅需要带有典型人物、场景的绘画,还需要塑造出具有时代精神的各式各样的艺术典型,以满足大众对于现实主义的精神需求。

A Study on Realism in Paintings of New Era from Perspective of Chinese Thematic Painting

From 1949 to 1966,Chinese art of painting and drawing,under the profound influence of that of Soviet Union,produced many great realistic works,which gave rise to Chinese realistic paintings.However,as the Western arts of modernism began to influence Chinese culture and arts since the reform and opening in 1978,realistic paintings fell into an embarrassing situation and became marginalized gradually.In the new era,to revive realism in painting,we should make the variety and diversity of realistic arts known to people and never be restricted to painting things as they are and satisfied with the general understanding of life.Now,to bring the merits of such a way of painting into full play and depict people＇s contemporary life and mentality,we need to not only paint pictures of typical characters and scenes but shape the artistic models presenting different time spirits to satisfy people＇s need for realistic arts.
