Xue Qingyu. As a senior member of the Gansu Artists Association, Bai Yunzhu is a female painter with great development potential, and is also quite powerful in the group of female painters in Dingxi City.
In terms of modeling, composition, aesthetic taste and other painting languages, contemporary Chinese gongbi painting is more integrated with modern consciousness in adhering to the spirit of traditional Chinese art. Knowing the development by the works and knowing the times by aesthetics, contemporary Chinese gongbi painting pays more attention to the creation of atmosphere, and in the depiction, dyeing and washing, it generally appears beautiful and quiet, graceful and far-reaching, which is more in line with the aesthetic purpose of contemporary people's pursuit of spiritual tranquility. On the basis of this understanding, let's taste the works of Baiyunzhu. The overall style of her creations is: "brush and ink" keep up with the times, the language is delicate and elegant, the materials are simple and unpretentious, and the colors are quiet and pleasant. I think that a group of her works with potato flowers as the object is particularly interesting. Originally, it was a simple little flower that could be seen everywhere in the vast fields of Longzhong, but it became an important theme of her creation, and it has a vivid display of unique meaning.
Not only is it in the painting, but it is actually in the painting; Not only is it a real painting, but it is also far higher than life itself. In the extremely quiet atmosphere creation, the flowers also bloom quietly, quietly, and into the hearts of the people; It is also simple and mature, reminiscent of its owner like it - the hometown of the father!
I think this comes first of all from his love for the people of Stisi, from her unique eye for discovering beauty, and from her gradually individualized Gongbi language. Hooking, coloring, and texture making are all unified on the word "quiet", so that people can understand life, feel farming, and get close to the soil in a quiet atmosphere, so as to win more people's hearts. It can be described as pleasing to the eye!
With this feeling, Bai Yunzhu created a series of potato themes. "Love in the Hometown", "Wind and Rain Welcome Surui, Frost and Dew Give Gold", "The Sound of Late Autumn" and "Appointment with the Flowering Period" can be described as a great achievement. Her "Sound of Late Autumn" is a masterpiece of flower and bird painting, of course, not in size, but in high conception and large pattern, standing at the intersection of art and reality, and becoming a landmark work reflecting the changes in Longzhong. Obviously, Bai Yunzhu is a painter with a feeling for the earth, in his schematic composition, the flowers and leaves of potatoes occupy half of the picture, and the fine baskets and ochre-colored potatoes in the blank space of the painting frame rise up in a silent signal, conveying and conveying the abundance and blessing from the fields to all directions through the potato train docked on the platform. The moving part of art is to integrate a kind of affection and prayer into the color, Bai Yunzhu is in the ordinary reality, has a sense of mystery and distance, the gray-blue he created, simple and deep, has the charm of dissolving all paleness and coldness, it reminds people of the moonlit night, feeling the breath of the earth and the fragrance of the grains. I would also like to mention Bai Yunzhu's other work: "Love in the Hometown".
We know that as an artist, thematic creation is a must; We also know that thematic creation often encounters the dilemma of colliding with subject matter, similar compositions, and easy to get stuck in conceptualization.
So, how can we find another way and not be trapped by these, Bai Yunzhu's "Love Hometown" seems to give us the answer.
Longxi, as the county of the world's surname Li, is located. Its Li culture is naturally an aspect that the painters here are bound to pay attention to. But how can we discover and promote it artistically and personally, without labeling it? Bai Yunzhu does just that: in "Love in Hometown", she focuses on a small roadside street scene that goes unnoticed. The ordinary roadside railing enters the picture in an elegant light gray; Above the railing, there are creepers from top to bottom; Behind the sparse shadow of the creeper leaves, there is a faint inscription on the railing of the words "Li's hometown".
The leaves of the creeper after the frost in autumn are dark red and calm, forming a color contrast with the gray of the railing, but not too eye-catching and vulgar. For this, Bai Yunzhu's own words are, "I don't want to paint it too eye-catching, too gorgeous, which is not in line with the reality of life in this season, let alone my heart." ”
No wonder this work, once exhibited, was so accepted by everyone and so affinity!
What does it tell us about thematic creation? Discover the beauty of life with unique eyes and express the beauty of life with your own words!
Traditional Chinese painting is a system, a system of imagery with words and feelings as the core, whether it is a freehand of unrestrained ink painting, or a neat and rigorous brushwork, the kind of transcendence of reality for the use of the meaning, the love is full of the mountains, and the essential characteristics of the environment created by the heart should be the same.
How to return to the essential tradition of Chinese art has increasingly become the central issue of Gongbi painters' key thinking and practice. At present, a new trend of thought in gongbi painting is quietly emerging, that is, the entry of freehand elements.
Therefore, it is suggested that Bai Yunzhu can be more bold and innovative in the future creation, and at the same time as he is accustomed to the color of the brush, he may as well try to use ink and ink into the brush to break the limitations of the color of the brush, and open up a world of creation of the brush painting for himself.
Finally, it needs to be added that Bai Yunzhu still thinks that he is a rare dance artist.
I met Bai Yunzhu, a female painter of gongbi painting, relatively early. But acquaintance, probably in 2012.
One year, the local cultural festival was organized to create a sitcom, and Bai Yunzhu was tasked with showing a scene of local folk culture, and the third act - the creation and rehearsal of flowers.
The show was a great success. On the basis of a deep understanding of the connotation of the text script, Bai Yunzhu successfully explained the elements of local folk culture with her personalized dance language, and achieved the purpose of the best expression of the earthy atmosphere.
She is the backbone of the dance business of local group cultural work, the deputy research librarian of the Longxi County Cultural Center, a member of the Gansu Dancers Association, the vice chairman of the Dingxi Dancers Association, and the vice chairman of the Longxi County Dancers Association. His unique talent, strong dedication, and excellent business ability are all remarkable, and he has won many awards. The choreographed folk square dance "Yunyang Ban Knocking on the Sky Full of Laughter" won the silver medal of the "Ninth China Folk Art Festival", the encouragement "Ode to National Policy" won the second prize of the Gansu Provincial Population Culture and Art Festival, the dance "Gathering in Longxi" won the first prize of the "People's Stage, Happy Ten Thousand Homes" city-wide square dance competition, and "Loyalty" won the first prize of the first "Top Ten Loyal Guards" selection activity in Dingxi City, and so on.
