張利在畫室

“藝術應當使人更加高尚。”這是發自張利心聲的共鳴，張利1958年生於北京，76年參軍，79考入解放軍藝術學院美術系，83年畢業留校任教。現為中國美術家協會會員，解放軍藝術學院美術系副教授，作品多次參加國內國際大型展覽，並有作品獲獎，及被國內外美術館、畫廊和收藏家收藏。
    以前我常在畫展及畫冊上看到他創作的作品，其油畫風格樸實典雅，為寫實主義表現手法，同時也有寫意的成分，可謂意象寫實主義畫風。
    近日，我來到位於海澱區張利高大明亮的畫室，此時他正在充滿真情的創作一幅西藏題材的少女人物油畫，他高高的個子，純樸文靜的面容，説話時充滿激情和學者氣，以及對藝術的熱愛。
    他對繪畫特別的投入，把捕捉到的生活中的真實的情感通過畫面表達出來，他常説一幅畫首先自己喜歡才能打動觀眾。確實如此，我深有同感。
    藝術大師倫勃朗曾説：“比金錢重要的是名譽，比名譽更重要的是自由。”是啊！放鬆的心態；自由的藝術；自由的筆觸；自由的色彩；自由的空間才能創造出富有生命力的傑作。從張利的作品中可以看出他受古今中外藝術家及思想家的影響。張利在創作時，從來沒有煩惱過，他覺得有耐心，有恒心，也開心。他説繪畫市場的炒作並不重要，首先要把畫畫好。其夫人也非常支援他的創作，所以他能夠全身心的投入。整體看來張利有些作品達到了前所未有的水準，他以現實主義的方法和浪漫主義的幻想表現了中國少數民族少女美麗動人的形象。他善於用深沉，渾厚的色彩來表現人物的性格。並採取豐富多樣的繪畫性手法，塑造出形象生動、富有力量的形象。他的畫面很少有繁瑣的細節描繪，畫風剛柔並濟，有著非凡的創作性，並富有積極的現實主義精神。
    我認為每位藝術家在藝術上都要拿出應該有還沒有的東西，獨領風騷，並要在作品中注入人文主義精神的活力。
    記得著名雕塑家羅丹的老師黎科克曾説：“一幅圖畫不一定要漂亮，但是他一定要有感情。”張利創作的油畫《玉妲》人物肖像更是真摯感情的體現和美麗的化身，也表現了他一直以來對畫中人物的眷戀。

Deep-Hearted Devotion-Interview of Oil Painter Zhang Li, Professor with the PLA Art Academy

    “Art should make people lofty.” This is deep rooted in Zhang Li’s heart. Born in 1958 in Beijing, Zhang joined the army in 1976 and enter the Fine Art Department of the PLA Art Academy through examinations in 1979. After graduation in 1983, he worked in the academy as a teacher. Now, he is a member of Chinese Artist Association and a professor of the Fine Art Department of PLA Art Academy. His paintings were frequently exhibited in various domestic and international exhibitions and won prizes many times, many of which were collected by domestic and foreign art museums, galleries and collectors.
    Previously, I often saw his paintings in various exhibitions and picture albums. His style of oil painting consists realism of unadornment and grace, as well as freehand brushwork style.
    Recently, I interviewed him at his large and bright atelier in Haidian District of Beijing. He was working at a painting of a girl in Tibet. The tall and gentle man speaks with excitement and acts in scholar manner, indicating his love to the art.
    He throws himself into his painting and likes to express his feelings he collected from real life through painting. He feels, and so do I, that only the paintings that the painters themselves like can touch audiences, and just the paintings that painters do not want to sell are the paintings people want most to buy.
    Rembrandt noted that reputation is more important than wealth while freedom is more important than reputation. Yes, only those with relaxed minds, free hand and free color in a free circumstance can create arts with strong vitality and freedom. From Zhang Li’s paintings, we can see that he is influenced by domestic and foreign artist thinking. He said he is never annoyed while painting and he is happy with his patience. According to him, speculations in art market is not important and the first thing first is to paint high-quality paintings. His wife also gives full supports to his work, making sound environment for his painting.
    In general, some of his paintings reach his unprecedented high level, expressing the excellent images of women and girls of Chinese minority through his realistic painting style and romantic imagination. He uses deep and thick color to express the characteristics of figures and uses abundant and various methods to create vivid and powerful images. He seldom overelaborates details with great creativity and realism spirits.
    I believe every artist should have his or her unique style and inject humanism to his or her paintings.
    Augeuste Rodin’s teacher Lecongde Boisbaudran pointed out that a painting is not necessarily beautiful, but it must be a feeling painting. Zhang Li’s paintings embody his sincere feelings and demonstrate beauty, showing his love for the figures in his paintings.
