近十年来,随着国家加大文化建设的投入力度,作为中国传统文化优秀代表之一的中国画得到了空前发展。而中国画后备人才培养的中国画高等教育也取得了巨大进步。当代中国画高等教育培养,无论在招生规模、学科建设还是理论发展、创作水平、教学体系等方面,在大力提倡民族文化复兴与发展的当代,在中西文化剧烈碰撞中深度融合,快速发展。但是,我们也不可否认,高等教育阶段的中国画教育也有一系列的问题随之凸显,如学业内容与就业方向的对接、学院教育与传统师徒相授的利弊、西方观念与传统文化的碰撞等。从教学实践看,这其中最为突出的问题就是学生创新能力不强,创作能力的薄弱。文章从教学视角出发,粗略探讨中国画高等教育如何提高学生的创新能力。 In the past decade, as the state has stepped up its investment in cultural construction, traditional Chinese paintings, as one of the best representatives of Chinese traditional culture, have enjoyed unprecedented growth. China’s traditional Chinese painting has also made great strides in the cultivation of Chinese reserve talents. In the contemporary era of vigorously promoting the revival and development of national culture, the cultivation of contemporary Chinese painting in higher education has been deeply integrated and rapidly developed in the violent collision of Chinese and Western cultures in terms of enrollment scale, discipline construction or theoretical development, creative level and teaching system. However, we also can not deny that there are also a series of problems in Chinese painting education at the higher education stage such as the connection between academic content and employment, the pros and cons of college education and traditional mentoring, the collision between western ideas and traditional culture, etc. . From the teaching practice, the most prominent of these problems is the students’ weak ability of innovation and creativity. From the perspective of teaching, the article roughly explores how to improve the creative ability of Chinese painting in higher education.
