从历史的角度看,绘画的产生远远早于文字,甚至文字自身的前期就是绘画(象形文字).但事情的发展似乎不太“公平”:几乎没有一幅能引起公众反响的绘画,不是以文字来描绘和评价的.现代的画家大都十分重视这一点,不惜请知名的评论家写文章对自己的作品加以评论.这足以说明,美术批评对于评价绘画水平,提高画家及其作品的知名度具有重要作用.当然,美术批评更重要的功能在于发现和挖掘美术作品独特的、具有创新价值的内容,引导和提高广大群众的鉴赏能力.就这一点说,美术批评起着直接的指导作用和舆论导向作用.然而,令人遗憾的是,我们在看了许多批评文章之后,却悲伤地发现自己仍是个门外汉.大量美好的形容词和模糊的概念构成了对批评来说毫无意义的判断,使我们仿佛堕入迷雾之中,艺术本身似乎变得越来越不可捉摸.人们希望读到更多的富有建树和开拓性的批评文章,而不仅仅是一些充满着或浪漫谛克,或艰深晦涩的词句,却又空洞无物的东西.而要提高美术批评的水平,更好地发挥美术批评的功能,重要的是加强美术批评理论的研究, Historically, painting came much earlier than writing, and even the text itself was painted (hieroglyph) but things did not seem quite “fair”: there was hardly any painting that could arouse public response , Not in words to describe and evaluate.Most of modern artists attach great importance to this point, well-known commentators write articles to comment on their works.This is enough to illustrate the art criticism for the evaluation of the level of painting to enhance the artist and his work Of course, the more important function of art criticism lies in the discovery and excavation of the unique and creative value contents of the art works to guide and enhance the appreciation ability of the general public.In this respect, art criticism plays a direct role in guiding Role and media-oriented role.However, after reading many criticisms, we find it sadly to be still a layman.Many beautiful adjectives and vague concepts constitute meaningless criticism To judge, to make us seem to fall into the fog, the art itself seems to have become more and more elusive. People want to read more wealthy And pioneering criticism of the article, not just some filled with romance, or obscure words, but nothing but the level of art criticism to better play art criticism function, it is important It is to strengthen the art criticism theory research,
