虽然抽象艺术作为西方美术史上一种特定的艺术倾向和流派起源于十九世纪初期的英国浪漫派画家透纳,但是中国传统绘画从来没有放弃过物象,中国文人画的逸笔草草,并不在乎外在世界的客观之形,而专注于画家内心世界的主观之意。恰是因为这一点,文人画获得了西方抽象艺术家的共鸣。甚言之,文人画之逸笔草草的简约与佛教禅宗之间的沟通,在一定程度上使中国传统艺术影响到西方现代艺术。 Although abstract art as a particular artistic tendency and genre in the history of Western art originated from the British romanticist Turner in the early nineteenth century, Chinese traditional painting has never given up its image. In the objective form of the world, while focusing on the subjective meaning of the artist’s inner world. Precisely because of this, the literati painting won the sympathy of Western abstract artists. In other words, the communication between the simplicity of literati painting and the Buddhist Zen has, to a certain extent, influenced the traditional Chinese arts to affect western modern art.
