Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-01-29

It's a landscape of the Parisian countryside in warm tones. Not surprisingly, Wu Guanzhong, who accepted his teacher's idea of simple beauty, mainly presents the harmony of color and the stability of composition in his paintings.

To appreciate such paintings, we must not start with the details. Once your mind is so open, your artistic thinking has gone astray before your eyes touch the picture. I can't say I like it, and whether bad comments will be added to the painting depends on my personal likes and dislikes.

This picture of "Countryside on the outskirts of Paris" is full. It can be said that painting elements fill almost the entire canvas. If we thought about it this way, how would you feel when the elements almost filled the canvas, and at the same time, each element was so detailed that it overflowed the picture?

Perhaps, beauty may still exist, but beauty may not be called.

The fullness of the elements necessarily requires the simplicity of the elements. This is necessary for the balance of the picture, and it is also a sufficient condition for satisfying our eyes. This tells us one thing, thinking about painting, especially modernist painting, we must start with the balance and contrast of the picture, rather than focusing on the image and even the details of things.
