What is the art of image media? What do you mainly do after learning? Emergency solution

Following the experiments on media and the exploration of media possibilities by the predecessors of contemporary art who recorded and photographed early images, the artists of Hangzhou Image Movement once again adjusted the relationship and distance among media, life experience and personality. They re-explored the ancient proposition of theme and form, and made their own personal judgments and self-positioning on this relationship. They began another level of experiment: instead of exploring the possibility of media in extensive mode, they explored and honed language in deep mode within the limits of media characteristics. Artists of Hangzhou Image Movement believe that media is only a tool, not an essence, so we should not discuss media at the essential level, but use media at the "hands-on" level.

This change indicates that the artist's attitude towards a new media has passed the initial stage of surprise and the subsequent stage of possibility development, thus moving towards the stage of mature media. At this stage, the possibility and boundary of a medium are no longer discussed in detail, but on the basis of understanding the limitations and expressive advantages of the medium, in-depth and meticulous excavation and creative application are carried out, and a mature language enters the stage of expression excavation and deliberation of "grammar tempering" and "wording and sentence making", that is, it enters the subtle consideration level of the medium. This attitude and application of media is similar to the application and scrutiny of traditional media in perception, but in fact, most artists of Hangzhou Image Movement have undergone strict training in traditional art media, and when using images as media to create, they really consciously or unconsciously draw nutrition from the experience and resources of traditional media. Moreover, as far as the relationship between authors, works and real life is concerned, the artists of Hangzhou Image Movement did inherit the concept of "creation" of traditional art (detailed below). Such creative ideas and methods will inevitably present a "classical regression" in appearance.

Third, the special treatment of images and time makes the form of the works keep pace with the situation of moving images and photography:

Because of the common background of the Academy of Fine Arts, artists in Hangzhou are naturally more accustomed to the management and construction of a single picture, which makes them seem to be better at photography than moving images based on time. However, the use of moving images by artists in Hangzhou is not a narrative based on time sequence in the general sense, but a way to use this time art to shape images and express emotions or thoughts, and a way to deal with time problems in space. At this point, the traditional single work, photography and moving images have found a common fulcrum. The difference is that traditional single works and photography need to deal with more diachronic problems in synchronic pictures, while moving images need to deal with more diachronic problems on the premise of diachronic.

Based on the common "creation" concept of shaping and condensing images, Hangzhou image artists often use media at the hands-on level for specific needs. They either focus on photography, or mainly on moving images, or are good at moving images, photography or even single paintings, showing the trend that the two forms of works go hand in hand.
