Personal readme reference:

1940 1 month was born in Gulangyu. I have a natural kinship with the land, human feelings, folk customs and aesthetic psychology here since I was a child. I know her breath, her characteristics, her details and her beauty, so I can communicate with her and even get in touch with her. She's in my heart forever. I extended it to national psychology, emotion, aesthetics and culture, so I cherish this inner thing, experience it and express it. I am a native painter nourished by the land and sunshine in southern Fujian, a native of southern Fujian, and I have also studied art in Beijing-southern and northern art, especially the aesthetics of Wu Zuoren's studio nourished me for a long time, which naturally made me blend the humanistic temperament of the north and the south.

(1) Art is not a game for me, but a creative job; It is not easy, but thinking+learning; Not just craft, but artistic vision+emotion+skill (including "craft"); It is not driven by the temptation of fame and fortune, but the driving force of combining the nature of painting with the ideal of art. This is my endless life track. I attach importance to and pursue "accumulation" to make it "natural" and call myself "volcanic eruption theory": only when the savings reach the critical point can there be a magnificent landscape. This is not a vision, but a focus on the present, bit by bit, down-to-earth accumulation of results.

(2) I am committed to the "China" of oil painting (the usual academic concept is "nationalization", also known as "localization"). Plants transplanted from one place to areas with different climate and soil will inevitably change; Even so, as an art closely related to people's mind, emotion, social life, culture and art, aesthetic habits, geography and climate, how can it not happen and there is no need to change it? Different themes and backgrounds are bound to change. This is China's indisputable reason.

This is not a "false question".

Our oil painting ancestors have been exploring this topic almost from the beginning, and it is an indisputable fact that many oil painters have been working hard for it for a hundred years. I have always had this ambition. The central issue is that you have to have Chinese soul, China feelings, Chinese language, Chinese eyes and the story of China, which boils down to Chinese roots. I feel that the lack of my national culture has hindered the process of "China" in my oil painting. I hold a firm, prudent and persistent attitude towards China in oil painting, and put forward the academic methods of "understanding-cognition-synthesis and integration-creation" and "from digestion to creation". With this method, I have been exploring from the late 1970s to the present, and I have been taking a road of accumulation of "learning-thinking-understanding-displacement-change". My view and practice is that "Chinese-style" oil painting should not be simply painted as Chinese painting, but should be calm and firm. Don't worry, explore it bit by bit and let it come naturally. It should be a new style developed by the integration of eastern and western painting. First of all, it must have both the characteristics of oil painting and China temperament. I clearly know that this is a slow, difficult and gradual process that varies from person to person; However, it is promising and has a bright future, which needs the efforts of several generations of artists to pursue. Everyone should do something from their own perspective.

(3) Art is based on the "truth, goodness and beauty" of people. Only by persistence can there be "the truth of art". The "truth of art" is not limited to the realistic style, let alone naturalism; It is a transcendence of life produced by the sincere combination of subject and object that art should have. )

"The truth of art" is one's own artistic concept, not a copy of a certain school. It comes from one's own heart, one's own understanding of art, one's own rationality, one's own life experience and artistic practice, one's own feelings about the outside world, the reliability and clarity of artistic essence, one's own artistic feelings and artistic visual ways, one's own emotions and artistic visual expectations, and the non-utilitarian mentality when painting; In short, it comes from its own life subject, internal logic and life logic. At the same time, the change of artistic style must be based on the change of artistic concept, artistic thinking mode, artistic feeling and artistic viewing mode, which is determined by the above aspects. It is created by digesting and integrating the artistic subject from the aspects of tradition, life, culture, mind, vision and skills. Therefore, "the truth of art" is always energetic and endless! So I said, "It's rare to be true!"

(4) To engage in art, the first thing is to love it since childhood, and the second is endless desire; Keep learning, accumulate diligently, develop talents, manage art correctly, set goals and be good at defense; Quiet and far-reaching, you must follow.

Everyone tends to each other, I am alone; Everybody swoops, I'm alone. Persistence requires clear thinking, pure pursuit, time, and long-term indifference and loneliness; Only by maintaining "disobedience" can "independence" be achieved.

When you are doing art, you will often get great and small inspirations inadvertently-as unexpected as an elf, you should be good at collecting them, grinding them, and stringing them into sparkling beautiful treasures-a combination of truth, goodness and beauty; This is my artistic experience and creative way.

Artistic vision is dynamic and can be changed, perfected and personalized in the process of artistic creation; Artists need to accumulate the artistic "positive energy" of eyes, heart, brain and hands all their lives in order to be energetic and even look forward to a magnificent "eruption".

Art needs "law"; But art needs emotion, wisdom, reason and truth-the harmonious realm of human spirit and self-mind; At this time, "Dharma" is a spiritual "living" method. With this "law", it is expected that your art will show lasting vitality and sprout charm.

Professor Hong's idea

A man who lives by a compass and an anchor.

Author: (Professor Hong's alumni and colleagues are also friends)

In the 1940s, Mr. Hong was born in Gulangyu, Xiamen. On this small island adjacent to Xiamen Island, there are not only lush subtropical plants, but also many unforgettable human landscapes. For example, Western-style architecture reflecting colonial culture and piano sound representing the cultural interest of Gulangyu people. These contents left a deep impression on Mr. Hong in his youth, so that this kind of memory can be seen everywhere in his later artistic creation activities.

Mr. Hong, a professor, is the first director of the Fine Arts Department of Xiamen University. Graduated from Wu Zuoren Studio of Oil Painting Department of Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1960s. Later, he moved to Guizhou and Fujian. I used to be a middle school art teacher for eight years. Huang Yong _, an internationally renowned modern artist at that time, was his disciple. Whether studying in the Central Academy of Fine Arts or later being assigned to work in Guizhou and transferred to Xiamen to teach, Mr. Hong has been seriously developing his artistic life according to his own ideas.

In middle school, he got excellent grades in all subjects, but art was his favorite. Under the influence and guidance of the famous watercolor painter Mr. Zhang Houjin, when he finally applied for the university, he decided to go north and apply for the oil painting department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts according to his own interests. As a result, he was admitted. While studying, he chose Wu Zuoren Studio according to his own judgment. He not only accepted the guidance of many famous oil painting teachers such as Wu Zuoren and Ai Zhongxin, but more importantly, his study here also cultivated his artistic interest, that is, the expressive activities of oil painting should highlight the subtle, elegant, simple and sincere style. Mr. Ai Zhongxin once said: "Oil painting should be like China tea, which can be tasted." This sentence can be said to have a great influence on his artistic creation activities.

Anyone who knows Mr. Hong knows that he is a true, steady and independent person. At the end of 1970s, he took the step of artistic exploration, found his own direction and insisted on making his own art ... At that time, Huang Yong held a Dada exhibition in Xiamen, and a painter invited him to participate in the exhibition. He said, "Let me think about it for two days." Two days later, he said to his friend, "I am suitable for accumulation, but I still can't find the feeling." There is no exhibition.

The graduate student brought by Mr. Hong told me this way: "Mr. Hong lives a lonely life. In art, he never wants to compete with anyone. He just wants to live according to his own preferences and play his own. " Yes, Mr. Hong has his own views on art, his own taste and his own expression. He attaches importance to life, emphasizes feelings, and dreams that his creation can become a step in history through continuous cultivation. Whenever he talks about these things with his friends, his eyes will light up, his expression will become excited, and his usual caution will disappear.

Although on the surface, his works are romantic, fundamentally speaking, he is a China oil painter with classical ideas, and attaches great importance to the regularity and aesthetic value of artistic creation. He said: "Art is not a game, but labor." In order to do a good job in special art, he studied and studied the classics in the history of western art very extensively. For example, he painted the reliefs of the Parthenon in Greece, and also carefully visited the oil paintings of Ridega. However, in the process of learning, he opposed the learning method of skill for skill's sake and advocated learning without imitation. He said, "A master is a fire. It warms people, but it also burns them to death." We can only accept its influence, but we can't get close to it. "It is precisely because of this understanding that although we can see the traces of Impressionism, Nanabi, Fauvism and Expressionism in his works, there is always his own interpretation and creation. His way shows an China artist full of oriental romantic feelings, trying to absorb and synthesize eastern and western arts.

Everyone is inclined to the other side, and I am lonely. After many historic social changes, Mr. Hong is still walking steadily on his own life track. He used his thoughts and feelings to experience and feel nature and society, and captured valuable content and expressed it in the reaction. This artistic life is very simple and simple, but also very individual. As a research-oriented artist, Mr. Hong is a man with a compass and an anchor in his life. On the creative road of oil painting art, he does not insist on a breakthrough, but slowly walks his own way, constantly discovering himself, constantly adjusting himself and constantly improving himself.

Main work

(Written by Hong at Xiamen Building 20 13-3-25)

Chenzhuang

Flax _ 50.8cm×1525px _1993

Interpretation of creation: The work freely deals with the indoor space with the concept of scattered perspective, and forms a picture with visual rhythm with square, rectangle, circle, semicircle and irregular shape; A large area of vermilion red, orange and yellow with different colors and a little bit of blue gray, green and white constitute the tone of the picture, and the dark part does not reproduce brown, which makes the whole room full of brilliance. A newly-married Hui 'an girl indulged in fiddling with the bangs on her forehead in front of the small mirror in the garden, and a thick warmth, cheerfulness, tranquility and happiness permeated this small new house. I hope to present the unique folk flavor of Huian and the psychology that Huian girl loves beauty very much. This is the local customs of southern Fujian, and it is also the folk life and aesthetic taste of China. This charm is a plain poem in my heart.

climax

Flax _72.5cm×2500px_ 1996

Creative analysis: The fisherman is going out to sea. He is very busy. He overlooks the astronomical phenomena and tides, and the painted fishing boats unique to southern Fujian sway with the waves in the morning light. All the images are integrated into the glorious flow, and the multi-layer different color reset constitutes a fuzzy colorful picture, which draws the artistic conception of the sea, sings brilliantly, and is a hymn of labor.

Sea and the sky is a color.

Flax _42cm× 1692.5px_2003

Creative analysis: painted fishing boats are moored on the shore, fishermen shake small sampans and rafts to shuttle back and forth between big ships, and the light fog on the sea surface dissipates. In an instant, my eyes felt the dazzling and brilliant charm of blue, which made me paint crazily, but I couldn't see the redundancy, but it condensed into this empty and far-reaching sea and sky.

glory

Flax _151cm× 2925px _ 2003

Creative analysis: music is brilliant, oil painting can also be compared to wings, and the brilliance of artistic realm must be infinite! I use this painting to express my love, feelings, praise and pursuit of art-to show the infinite brilliance of human lofty spirit!

Xiong Feng-Zheng Chenggong regained Taiwan Province Province in 1662.

Flax _ 210cm×11250px _ September 2004-February 2005 _ was exhibited at Zheng Chenggong Memorial Hall in Gulangyu, Xiamen.

Creative analysis: zigzag lines cross the wide screen, forming horizontal tension, and cooperating with the wide screen scene, showing the grand scene of historical events. The gloomy boulders, tequila and the cool colors of the Earth Sea set off the majestic military power of Zheng Jun's hunting with flags and the warm red color of the hot blue wall, and constructed a solemn and confident atmosphere and a heavy sense of history in the picture of recovering territory after fierce fighting. According to the requirements of museum historians, Zheng Chenggong's commander-in-chief is no longer mighty, but focuses on the two qualities of "king" and "handsome" and a slightly gaunt appearance due to overwork, so that the far-sighted image shines in the sun and the victorious teacher is magnificent! The defeated Dutch colonialists withdrew from Taiwan Province island with complicated mentality. Through the brush, I painted my interpretation and respect for the historical heroes in my hometown into the banners of characters, the old bases of boulders, the majestic waves and the swords and shadows; The king of Yanping county rode slowly in the long wind of history; Therefore, the proposition is "Xiong Feng".
