绘画论拾锦
Picking Brocade from the Discourses on Painting

我们对于艺术上历史的观念太少，就不能从过去的经验中发现将来。

西方的风景画是対象的描写，东方的风景画是印象的重现。

西方艺术是以摹仿自然为中心，结果倾于写实一方面，东方美术是以描写想像为主，结果倾于写意的一方面。

东方艺术，倾于主观，但因形式的不发达，故不能充分地表现情绪上之需求、西方艺术倾于客观，但因形式过于发达，而缺少情绪之表现。故容易流于机械刻板。若能调和，短长相补，则新艺术之产生则在目前。

艺术是感情的产物，有艺术而后感情才得以安慰。

托尔斯泰说：“人用言语传达自己的意思，给别一个人給用艺术传达自己的情绪給别一个人”

Our concept of history in art is too limited; thus, we cannot discover the future from past experiences.

Western landscape painting focuses on objective representation, while Eastern landscape painting emphasizes the impressionistic recreation.

Western art centers around imitation of nature, often leaning towards realism. As a result, it tends to be more objective. On the other hand, Eastern art focuses on imaginative representation, leaning towards expressionism and a more subjective approach.

Eastern art leans towards the subjective, but due to underdeveloped forms, it may not fully express emotional needs. Western art leans towards the objective, but because of excessive formal development, it may lack emotional expression, often becoming mechanical and stereotypical. If these aspects can be harmonized, complementing each other, the emergence of a new art is possible in the present.

Art is a product of emotion, and it is through art that emotions find solace.

Leo Tolstoy said, "People use language to convey their thoughts to one another, and they use art to convey their emotions to one another."
