中国的山水画家喜欢到真山真水中去写生作画,即使不是古人描绘过的景致,也少不了去名山大川……仿佛我们的老祖宗千百年来从自然中感悟出的这套举世无双的技法,就只能画这种不食人间烟火而跟当下生活关系不大的山水画。如果勉强画一些古人笔墨之外的一些景物,比如高楼大厦、笔直的马路,总感到画不出味道。缺少的是一种什么味道呢?大约就是古人一下笔就带出来的那种笔与墨,人与造化融合无碍的味道。简而言之,就是中国笔墨精神的味道。如此说来,我们可否这样追问:现代的生活和场景真的与老祖宗所创造的审美形式那么格格不入吗?难道古人千百 Chinese landscape painters like to draw real pictures of real mountains and rivers, even if it is not the landscape that the ancients portrayed, and ultimately to the famous mountains and rivers ... As if our ancestors had admired this unparalleled technique from nature for centuries, Can only draw this kind of non-human fireworks and contemporary life is not related to the landscape painting. If you barely draw some of the scenery outside of the ancients, such as high-rise buildings, straight streets, always feel the taste can not be drawn. What is missing is what kind of taste? About the ancients pen to bring out the kind of pen and ink, man and the integration of good taste. In short, it is the spirit of Chinese ink and wash. In this sense, can we ask whether the modern life and the scene are so out of tune with the aesthetic forms created by our ancestors?
