胡建成是新时期成长起来的中国当代最具代表性的写实油画家之一。这么说是因为:他作为中央美院一画室的带头人,在追寻大师的过程中,推进了教学发展,找到属于他自己的语言和表达方式。他用自己的作品给读者提供了一个关于经典学习的范例,经典启到的是一种引导、精神指向、激励你更大创造力的资源。胡建成的作品不论是人物还是风景画,在看似客观的写实中,都裹挟着很强的象征性与隐喻性,这里既有对造型空间的玩味,也有具象写实脱离外在形象而进入新的空间探求。这种富有当下性的写实语言,是他对艺术终极价值的追问,也是他对于自己精神家园的持守。 Hu Jiancheng is one of the most representative realist oil painters in modern China that grew up in the new era. This is because: As a leader in the studio of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, as a leader in the pursuit of masters, he advanced his teaching and found his own language and expression. Using his own work, he provides the reader with an example of classical learning that is guided by a source of inspiration, a point of spirit, and a source of greater creativity. Hu Jiancheng’s works, whether they be characters or landscape paintings, are strongly symbolic and metaphorical in seemingly objective realism. They both have pondering on the modeling space, and also have their own realistic image from the external image into the new Space exploration. This realistic, realistic language is his quest for the ultimate value of art and his commitment to his own spiritual home.
