艺术有着“虚”和“实”两个方面。虚和实是互为依存,相反相成的。艺术中的“虚”,就是相对于艺术实象的“空白”。空白与实象有着同等的艺术价值。艺术的价值主要在于其内在因素,在于其“言外意”、“画外音”、“潜台词”。而这些,其实就是“空白”。中国诗论超越莱辛“接近顶点”理论的艺术探索,可以称之为“序曲即尾声”理论。 Art has both “virtual” and “real” aspects. Virtual reality is interdependent and opposite. The “imaginary” in art is the “blank space” relative to the real image of art. Blank and real image have the same artistic value. The value of art lies mainly in its internal factors, lies in its “meaning”, “voice-overs”, “subtext”. And these, in fact, is “blank.” The exploration of the art of Chinese poetry that goes beyond Lessing’s “Closer to the Climax” theory can be called the “Overture”.
