我国书画艺术源远流长,每一时代的杰出大师都是在继承传统技法的同时,又不断地创新,并发扬光大。
明代著名画家林良、吕纪在继承宋元花鸟画传统的同时,又把花鸟画向前发展了一步,由工变写;而徐渭的大写意泼墨花卉则是历经坎坷,在其高深的修养下完成的千古不朽之作;清代的杰出代表画家八大山人和“扬州八怪”,他们都不断地推陈出新,使花鸟画更加完美;近代写意大师吴昌硕把花鸟画推向了一个新的高峰;齐白石在继承了八大和吴昌硕画风的基础上,凭借他对艺术的独特感受亦成为一代宗师。王宏江先生是富于创新精神的新一代画家,他勇于实践,敢于创新,在艺术缤纷的年代脱颖而出。他在创作中尊重自然,但绝不模拟自然;继承和重视花鸟、山水、人物、动物画的优秀传统,但又不被传统技法所限;研习西画而又不被西画所囿,吸取了西画和现代装饰画的优点,并吸纳现代艺术技法。其作品中的花鸟、动物、人物和山水形象,优美多姿,造型独特,构图巧妙,设色强烈,变形夸张,用笔有力,不重复古人和自己,观后给人以强大震撼力。综合来看,他的作品装饰性强,既有民族、民间绘画艺术之精华,又有时代风貌以及很强的现代精神,具有鲜明、独特的艺术风格。

Hongjiang Wang - Full
of the Spirit of Innovation
The Chinese painting and
calligraphy art has a long
history. In each era,
outstanding masters always
innovate and carry forward
traditional skills while
inheriting them.
In Ming
dynasty, the famous
painters, Liang Lin and Ji
Lv, inherited the
traditional Flower and Bird
painting of Song and Yuan
Dynasties and promoted
development of traditional
Chinese painting – changing
from traditional Chinese
realing masterpiece. He
completed works after
overcoming numerous
difficulties with his high
accomplishment. The
outstanding representative
painters, Badashanren and
the“eight eccentrics of
Yangzhou”in the Qing
Dynasty,innovated constantly
and made flower paintings
more perfect. Modern
outstanding master Changshuo
Wu upgraded and pushed
flower-and-bird painting and
freehand brushwork to a new
height; Baishi Qi also
became a master painter on
the basis of inheriting
Badashanren and Changshuo‘s
art style with his unique
feelings about art.Mr. Hongjiang Wang is a
new generation painter who
is endowed with creative
spirit, dares to practice,
and come to the fore during
the period in which art
flourished. In his works, he
respects nature, but never
simulates it. He inherits
and pays more attention to
the excellent tradition
relating to birds and
flowers, landscapes,
characters, and animal
paintings, but is not
restricted by traditional
techniques. He studied
western painting rather than
being bound to it and
absorbed advantages of
western painting and
contemporary adornment
picture, modern artistic
techniques and skills. The
image of flowers, birds,
characters, and landscapes
in his works seems elegant
and attractive - the
modeling is unique, the
composition is clever, the
coloring is intense, and the
deformation is
exaggerated.He doesn’t
repeat the style of ancients
or his own. His paintings
give people a strong sense
of artistic shock. In
general, the decorative
characteristic of his works
is very strong, which
embodies both national and
folk artistic essence,
features of the era, and
strong modem spirit. It
reflects a distinct and
unique artistic style.
