The author introduces:
Feng Yuan, deputy director of central research institute of culture and history, vice chairman of China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, honorary chairman of China Artists Association and member of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. Director of the first leading body of the National Committee for the Examination and Approval of Artistic Terms.
Feng Yuan strengthened rational factors, especially those of philosophy, history and life, in his ink and wash creation, which made the weather and poetry, structure and language of his works even colder. Therefore, the artistic realm is full of philosophical enlightenment and rational interest, which has also become the aesthetic orientation of his works.
However, the typology and conceptualization of pen and ink has always been the unchangeable drawback of China's ink painting for thousands of years, which fundamentally runs counter to the aesthetic characteristics of painting. Feng Yuan's ink painting art is based on overcoming this tendency.
Feng Yuan's Chinese paintings are mainly realistic and figurative. The characters in the works are accurate and vivid, the painting style is simple and vigorous, and the pen and ink are vigorous. He prefers the creation of historical themes and is good at creating a broad scene of the organization.
Pay attention to the ideological connotation of the works, strive to convey the description of grand spirit, and also pay attention to the novelty and exquisiteness of artistic forms and languages. He also painted in a simple and abstract way, with the intention of absorbing and storing. I am diligent in writing in my spare time and keen to participate in the research of creative theory.
Feng Yuan devoted himself to art, devoted himself to teaching, and strived to reach a corresponding maturity level in every style evolution in his creative research. Feng Yuan believes that the prospect of China's ink figure painting is limitless, but it still needs hard work to create a truly modern figure painting in China and keep a distance from traditional art and modern western art.
