中国画尤其是中国山水画,对当代山水画家是个挑战,因为历朝历代的画家已经为中国山水画创造了很多高峰,如何在传承基础上创新创造,并结合时代的特点与个人的特色,特别难。现在的画家有着开阔的视野,他们放眼世界,信息量很大,在这个转化过程中接触到很多信息和机遇,让自己画出更丰富的东西。但中国文化和西方文化不同,是线性的问题,是中国五千年文化,这条线继续怎么走的问题,所以挑战很大,其本身笔墨语言的创 Chinese painting, especially Chinese landscape painting, is a challenge to contemporary landscape painters, because successive dynasties of painters have created many peaks for Chinese landscape painting. How to innovate and create on the basis of inheritance is particularly difficult, combining with the characteristics of the times and individual characteristics. Today’s painters have an open field of vision. They look into the world with great amount of information. In the process of transformation, they have access to a lot of information and opportunities to draw more abundant things. However, the difference between Chinese culture and Western culture is a linear one. It is also a question of how to continue this line of five thousand years of Chinese culture. Therefore, the challenge is enormous.
