On art appreciation

Art appreciation course is a course to introduce students to art knowledge, analyze art works, reveal art laws and guide art appreciation

. It helps to cultivate students' cognitive skills, improve their abilities of discrimination, analysis, reflection and judgment, broaden their knowledge horizons and cultivate their sentiments. The author discusses how to teach art appreciation well from the following angles

.

First, let students appreciate more excellent works of art

Just as Liu, a famous literary theorist in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, said, "Anyone who plays a thousand songs before he knows the sound, watches a thousand swords before he knows the instrument." Only when students see more and think more, can their knowledge of some artistic

languages (such as point, line, plane, body, space, light, color, material quality and texture) and artistic schools (such as Lingnan School in modern China and Impressionism in the west) gradually rise from

perceptual knowledge to rational knowledge.

We can appreciate the

works of many famous artists, such as You Chuntu by Zhan Ziqian, Bu Ji Tu by Yan Liben, Wu Niu Tu by Han Wei, Za Hua Tu Juan by Xu Wei, and Refugee Tu by Jiang Zhaohe, and realize that Chinese painting is a blend of poetry, songs and songs.

In addition, the ink color change of Chinese painting and the various expression techniques such as hook,

dot, dye, thick, light, dry, wet, yin, yang, direction,

back, imaginary, solid, sparse, dense and blank space, etc.,

have a high degree of refining and summarizing skills, which fully embodies the nation. The beauty of Chinese painting lines is not found in oil painting.

Second, introduce students to the categories and basic knowledge of art

Introduce students to the basic knowledge of art, especially the classification of art, the main characteristics of all kinds of art, and the main artistic language and function of aesthetics. Only in this way can we understand all kinds of art works according to the characteristics of all kinds of art and the main artistic language of art, and truly understand the different artistic charm of all kinds of art works.

For example, from a broad perspective, fine arts include painting, sculpture

plastic, arts and crafts and design, and architecture and gardening

. Calligraphy (calligraphy, seal cutting, etc.) and

photography can also be classified into six categories within the scope of fine arts. The art of painting

can be divided into posters, New Year pictures, comic books, group

paintings, illustrations, etc. from the social function and expression forms of painting. According to the subject matter of painting, painting can be divided into portrait painting, genre painting, historical painting, landscape painting and still life painting. According to the tools, materials and techniques used in painting,

painting can be divided into Chinese painting, oil painting, watercolor painting, gouache painting, pastel painting, printmaking, mural painting and sketch. Some of these paintings

can be divided into

finer artistic styles according to the different materials and tools used. For example, prints can be divided into woodcuts, copper

prints, lithographs, screen prints, offset prints and so on. Among them,

woodcuts can be divided into black-and-white woodcuts, color-matched woodcuts and watermark-matched

color woodcuts.

Third, introduce the historical and cultural background of works of art

When introducing works of art to students, introduce more

the author and historical and cultural background of works of art, cultivate students'

interest in learning, and let students understand and experience the author's specific

life experience.

For example, Luo Zhongli's Father was based on

the painter's experience of living in Daba Mountain and the

deep affection with farmers in 198, and created this work of hyperrealism.

The artistic image in Father comes from a farmer who scours dung

. In the 197s, farmers went to cities mainly to collect manure and use it as fertilizer. For this fertilizer, the production team and

commune often fought. It was for this fertilizer that farmers lived in the toilets near the painter.

At that time, farmers lived in every toilet in the city. Farmers also stay in that place during the Chinese New Year. At the tenth of the third year, every family is reunited. The farmer's family

lives in that toilet, and lives in that place all year round

, where they eat and light fires! Therefore, his

demeanor and posture caused me a great shock. This farmer didn't go home all the year round. " Luo Zhongli, a painter, recalled:

"My life was definitely inseparable from farmers. When the painting Father

was created, I didn't expect it to arouse such a great response in society. The painting Father actually

declared the end of the era of a god, and the era of a person

began ... Father has been painted for nearly 3 years, and its

theme summarizes the history of our nation. But it has been attracting attention for many years. I think it is

because of the theme contained in that work, it has become a cultural symbol of a period

. "

Only by letting students know the background of the creation of Father can they

have a deeper understanding of why the wrinkles, rake-like hands and

toothless mouth of the father caused by the long and hard years immediately aroused strong

social repercussions. Why it can represent the image of a generation in China.

Fourth, explain more about the history of art

The emergence of the new woodcut movement in China is the need of the righteous revolution of the new democracy, and its works are extremely revolutionary and

clear-cut. At that time, when the material conditions were very difficult, Mr. Lu Xun introduced European printmaking, organized the woodcut

year and advocated the new woodcut movement, with the aim of using woodcut as a powerful weapon to attack the enemy. Stick to their ideas with carving knives and life. For the sake of spirit and ideals, these woodcut artists are not only artists, but also revolutionary fighters. They directly involved themselves in the political

struggle with their carving knives, so that they were sealed up for exhibitions or arrested.
