北京画家徐健与我同代,自小酷爱绘画。文革期间艺术学院全部关闭,而我们居然各自跟一位师傅学画画,受益终生。与我同辈的书画家中,如徐健这样曾经跟随名师如王老者,或亦可算是行将消失的京城地方文化中稀罕的个例吧。他的画册是他快乐的劳作的记录,是对恩师的敬意,在我看来,也是对师徒制教学的私人纪念。 Xu Jian, a Beijing painter, has always loved painting since childhood. During the Cultural Revolution, the art institutes were all closed. However, we actually learned to paint with one master every year to benefit the entire life. Among the calligraphers of my generation, such as Xu Jian, who used to be famous teachers such as Wang, or can be regarded as a rare example of the disappearing capital culture of the capital. His album is a record of his happy labors, is a tribute to the mentor, in my opinion, but also a private memorial service for teaching.
