PRESS | 美術家 Artist | Envisioning Contemporary Chronotopes Through Shan Shui Painting: The Ink Art of Yau Wing FUng
Author: Joyce Hei-Ting Wong July 7, 2023 云抱诡峰 水墨纸本144 x 70 cm 2014 Smog Clouded the Grotesque Rock, ink on paper. 中国画自20世纪初受到西方观念的冲击后，历经多番现代化革新，艺术家逐渐脱离传统技法和形式去寻求个人化的视觉语言。当今的水墨创作在全球化的语境下变得更多元化，题材不限于山水花鸟，有的甚至摒弃笔墨以其他媒材重塑水墨美学。相比推翻传统或趋向观念化的创新，邱荣丰更相信应从前人的绘画实践中汲取养分，以当代视野延伸水墨本身蕴含的表现力、哲学观及精神意向。他一直注重研究历代山水画所展现的时空意识，在古人的构图理论之上融合自己对世界的日常观察与想象，拓展出一系列反映当代宇宙观的实验性创作。 邱氏对山水画的研习始于写石。多年前，他一次在九龙寨城公园看见一尊被春雾萦绕的园林石，生气盎然的景观驱使他立时到附近买了纸笔进行写生。奇石自古是中国文人雅士的审美对象，千姿百态的造型引人神游物外，联想出大千世界。不过邱氏并非像众多古代画家般从石头看出天地缩影，而是对其窟窿和肌理的无尽变化更爲之着迷。那一次写生的视觉经验成就了 《云抱诡峰》的作品。他在绘画过程中将园林石某些奇特的位置放大，一边画一边思考甚麽部分应该加强或推暗，配合想象表达石的阴阳，再于窍穴之间加入缭绕的云雾突出石表的变化，引导观者的视点不断转换，塑造出迂回动态的构图节奏。一石多面的刻画无疑令人联想起明代「变形主义」画家吴彬（生卒年不详）的《十面灵璧图》，这幅旷世之作确实令邱氏启发良多。他以奇石作为主体实验不同的空间表现，继而进一步探究山水画的时空想象及可能性。 中国山水构图以北宋画家郭煕（约1023-1087后）在《林泉高致》 中提出的「叁远法」焉规范：「自山下而仰山巅，谓之高远。自山前而窥山后，谓之深远。自近山而望远山，谓之平远。」叁远不单指距离之远近，亦意味着移步换景时，跟随视点变化的时间流动。山水构图在同一画面中实则整合着过去、现在甚至未来的景观，而画家需要灵活地处理叁远之间的关系和变换，才能绘出让人「可行、可望、可游、可居」的作品。在中国的哲学传统里，「往古来今谓之宙，四方上下谓之宇」（《淮南子 •齐俗训》）。因此，山水画对于空间与时间的处理亦即是宇宙观的展现，而古代画家在道家思想的深远影响下，一直追求体现「天人合一」的境界。这种精神放置当今虚拟时代难免格格不入，但山水画的美学实则建基于时间与空间的体验之上，尽管现代人不再日出而作，日入而息，山水画的审美形式末尝不可表现当代生活经验。...

News | Arnold Chang and Michael Cherney - Yellow Mountains (Huangshan)
Guo Xinran May 12, 2019 从2009年开始，画家张洪（Arnold Chang, b. 1954）和摄影师秋麦（ Michael Cherney, b.1969）共同创作了一系列作品。《黄山册页》是这一系列的其中之一，完成于2012年（图一）。作品是一本折叠册，由十二组图片做成。每组左边是秋麦的照片，右边是张洪的纸上水墨（图二）。照片来自秋麦在黄山拍摄的一张照片的细节部分（图三）。秋麦截取了照片中的一条，将其分成连续的十四等分，选取其中十二张，印刷在张洪绘画所用的宣纸上寄给他，张洪继而通过水墨画的形式对秋麦的照片做出回应，最后，秋麦完成册页的装裱。 《黄山册页》由纽约大都会博物馆收藏，现正作为展览“溪山无尽——中国山水画传统”的一部分在该馆展出。在展览上，册页被拉开展示，二十四张图片形成连续的整体。秋麦的摄影以灰色调为主，而张洪的画面有大面积的留白。站在一定距离外看，图片之间色调的不同让作品具有独特的视觉冲击力（见图一(组)）。 这种独特的视觉冲击力也建立在图片之间的共鸣上。近距离观看的话，可以看到每组摄影与水墨画之间构图上的呼应。在作品的有些部分，可以明确看到两张图片中类似的山川、岩石形态（图四）。而在其它部分 ，两件图片仿佛将山水画中的细节无限放大，构图中只能辨认出笔触或色调的变化（图五）。另外，秋麦将照片打印在宣纸上。宣纸的吸水性让画面更加柔和，更接近张洪的纸上水墨的质感。张洪和秋麦在个人的实践中都长期保持对传统艺术语言和审美观念的回溯。张洪的笔法和构图主要取自元代以降的文人绘画，秋麦的摄影也受到中国传统绘画的影响。两位艺术家的合作基于他们对中国传统绘画相近的理解方式。艺术史学者安雅兰和沈揆一在一篇文章中将秋麦和张洪的合作作品看作一种文人间的对话。他们合作作品中摄影和绘画的并置延续了传统绘画作品上题字与绘画之间的共鸣。 和而不同可以很好地概括《黄山册页》的独特视觉冲击力。两种媒介之间既存在联系，又保持着微妙的距离。在秋麦和张洪合作的其它作品中，作品之间的过渡多以其它方式出现。有些作品中图片交界处采用模糊处理，过渡看起来更加柔和；在另外一些作品中，秋麦的照片会以三角形或扇形出现在构图中；在大部分的合作作品中，秋麦的照片是张洪水墨画中的一个格子。如《仿王己千》（2016）中，照片位于构图的正中，张洪的绘画与摄影中岩石的起伏构成有机的整体，如同笔触从照片延伸到了水墨画面上（图六）。与其它的合作作品不同，《黄山册页》中绘画与摄影是不连续的，图片之间并无明显的视觉线索作为连接，两张并置的图片以相似但独立的构图出现。 这种并置带来的视觉观感相当吸引人。在2014年出版的一份展览图册中，一位学者曾经写到：“我们看到两种肌理既连续展开又相互形成对比。这是一种奇特（uncanny）的感觉。”在同一份图录中，也有学者提到，观看秋麦和张洪的合作作品时，观者的视线经常在两种媒介的交界处反复停留。在有关《黄山册页》的访谈中，艺术家和访谈者也曾提到过，这种格子的构图方式让作品看起来更加当代。 《黄山册页》中图片的边缘和图片的排列方式看似不重要的细节，不过也是这些细节指向作品与传统文人对话在形式和媒介上的不同。关注这些细节也许可以帮我们进一步理解两位艺术家的合作，以及在当代回溯传统的意义。 需要说明的是，现当代艺术的视觉语言并非张洪和秋麦首要考虑的因素。 张洪的创作并不基于照片，而来自秋麦的摄影让他联想到的中国传统绘画作品。秋麦在拍摄和选择合作作品中的照片时也受到中国绘画的影响。在与大都会博物馆策展人史耀华（Joseph Scheier-Dolberg）的一次访谈中，张洪提到， “我们并不特意去创新，我们想做的是我们觉得对的、实在的、可以用得上我们各自的技巧和共同的美感的东西。” 在同一个访谈中，秋麦说：“我们的合作对水墨传统是尊重的……不需要是革新了什么东西，只是为后来的人再往前走一小步。” 同样，张洪和秋麦都不认为构图中的格子是自己创作的先决条件。张洪曾提到，合作作品中的直角和直线的边缘没有直接影响到他的创作；对秋麦来说，图片的选择主要基于他对作品画面的设想，而不是几何的构图。 《黄山册页》中的格子深深嵌入到两位艺术家对中国古代传统的思考中。张洪的艺术实践与元代绘画渊源颇深，也受到明清绘画的影响。他更注重对想像中山水形态的描摹，对自然潜在规律的把握，而非直接的再现。张洪的实践植根于中国传统绘画一个重要的转变阶段。艺术史学者方闻在文章...
