艺术来源于生活、艺术也反映生活。艺术中到处都体现着生活、体现着自然。所以从根本上讲,艺术产生于人类的生产和生活的实践活动中,艺术从它产生的那一天起就与人类的生活密不可分。而作为实用与造型艺术的美术,更是离不开生活这唯一的源泉。美术的影响主要体现在集体的审美意识、审美风尚等对艺术思潮和艺术家个人的创作艺术风格等方面的影响。本文就中学生美术教育的外部环境提出见解。 Art comes from life, art also reflects life. Art embodies life everywhere, embodies nature. Therefore, fundamentally speaking, art comes into being in the practical activities of mankind’s production and life, and from the day it was born, art is inextricably linked with human life. As a practical and artistic art, it is inseparable from the only source of life. The influence of art mainly manifests in the influence of collective aesthetic awareness and aesthetic style on the artistic trend of thought and the artistic style of individual artists’ creation. This article gives some advice on the external environment of art education for middle school students.
