本刊编辑部近期采访了从德国归来的西安美院青年画家张国龙,就其在德国的艺术活动经历以及德国美术现状等问题进行了座谈,下文根据谈话录音整理,标题为编者所加。 德国是一个经济发达、文化繁荣的国度。其民族富于理性、善于思辨,因此产生了康德、黑格尔、马克思等哲学巨擘。出国之前,我对德国的传统艺术文化很感兴趣,尤其对德国的表现主义绘画十分感兴趣,想作一番深究。1991年4月,我以西安美院青年画家的身份赴德国歌德学院进修。甫抵波恩,面临最大的困难是语言不通。不难想象,一个人怀着浓厚兴趣探寻一个陌生国度的艺术文化,却因语言障碍无法了解该国丰富的艺术文化内涵,终日相伴的唯有孤独和寂 Our editorial department recently interviewed Zhang Guolong, a young painter from the Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts who came back from Germany. He discussed his art activities in Germany and the status quo of the German fine arts. The following is a transcript based on the conversation. The title is added by the editor. Germany is a country with a developed economy and a prosperous culture. Its nationality is rational and good at speculation, resulting in philosophical giants such as Kant, Hegel and Marx. Before I went abroad, I was very interested in the traditional German art culture. I was especially interested in German expressionist painting and would like to make a deep study. In April 1991, I went to study at Goethe-Institut in Germany as a young painter in Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts. Just arrived in Bonn, the greatest difficulty is the language barrier. It is not hard to imagine that a person with a keen interest in exploring the art culture of a strange country can not understand the rich artistic and cultural connotation of the country because of the language barrier and the solitude and silence all along
