80年代初,北国边陲出现了一大批中青年花鸟画家。他们以生活为其创作源泉,以写生手稿为依据,用颇富表现力的线条和墨彩缤纷的色块,画出不少有鲜明关东特征和时代气息的花鸟画新作。这些作品已初步形成了群体风格,在海内外造成影响。应该说,在这个创作群体中,现任黑龙江省美协专业画家、花鸟画研究会主席的贾平西,是当之无愧的启蒙者和带头人。 贾平西,1964年毕业于鲁迅美术学院中国画系花鸟专业。学生时期,他尊重师长,刻苦勤奋,对传统花鸟画工写技法,苦心求索,深得堂奥。他敏感于生活,并善于从生活中捕捉新鲜素材。在学习传统的过程中,他坚持“先与古人合,后与古人离”的原则,在艺术上独开心窗,其毕业作《疾风劲草》和《辽南山乡即景》组画,均堪称是源于生活、构思独特、探索新格的佳作,初步显示出他在花鸟画艺术创作方面的潜在能量。可惜毕业后,由于极左文艺路线的统治,除了红梅花外,其他花鸟画几乎成为“四旧”的代义辞。在左的氛围中,甚至对平西给本单位同志画的花鸟为内 In the early 1980s, a large number of young and middle-aged flower and bird painters appeared in the northern border area.
