人的性格差异、审美观念这本来是一个老旧的话题,但看了名家关于传统与创新的争论之后,出于对艺术的责任感,觉得很有说说自己观点的必要。人们在认识事物规律时,常运用马克思的观点来论述,艺术的发展也不例外,即艺术的发展需要在传统的基础上推陈出新,才是符合事物发展的规律的。这里我要说的“传统与创新”,不是谈二者的关系,而是“传统与创新”两种艺术观念对艺术家所造成的影响。说到传统,对这一观念表示赞同的,应该是广大的民众了。我们提倡创作大众所喜闻乐见的艺术作品,就是创作符合大众欣赏习惯的,即符合传统的艺术作品。这类作品百分之九十以上的艺术特征代表了那个时代人们的审美观念。否则,就是另类的、反传统的作品,这类作品会受到很不公平的待遇。在科学技术飞跃发展、文化交流日益频繁的今天,如何使艺术家在追求艺术的旅途上,免受人为因素的阻挠,顺利地进行艺术创作。从西方现代艺术发展史中那些具有革新思想的艺术家的遭遇来看,值得我们借鉴深思。 People’s personality differences, aesthetic concepts, this has always been an old topic, but after reading the famous controversy about tradition and innovation, out of the sense of responsibility for the arts, feel very necessary to talk about their point of view. When people understand the law of things, they often use Marx’s point of view to discuss that the development of the arts is no exception. That is, the development of the arts needs to be innovated on the basis of tradition and conform to the law of development of things. The “tradition and innovation” I want to talk about here is not about the relationship between the two, but the influence of the two traditional concepts of “tradition and innovation” on artists. When it comes to tradition, people who agree with this idea should be the general public. We advocate the creative works of the public are loved by the public, is to create accords with the public to enjoy the habit of conforming to the traditional works of art. More than 90% of the artistic features in these works represent the aesthetic ideas of people in that era. Otherwise, it is an alternative and anti-traditional work which will be unfairly treated. Today, with the rapid development of science and technology and the increasingly frequent cultural exchanges, how to enable artists to successfully pursue artistic creation in the pursuit of artistic journey without being obstructed by human factors. From the experience of the artists with innovative ideas in the history of the development of western modern art, it is worth our consideration.
