Therefore, it will be a basic clues to pierce through this book by passing to the inside the western art appreciates beauty the characteristic of come to launch to replace to the Chinese painting more of describe. In this first describe frame the artist between each an art unrest or each a creation importance influence, is all to be used as history chain an a contact for of a link with inside west art in artistic practice order but full with confidence it. This such can be used as a part of the whole.It can be attained history logical and stereoscopic science. Be limited by the space, abridged that some have certain influence, but have been included standpoint, style work in the type described in text with artist, the artistic result between harbor area or abroad ethnic Chinese artist is too not included, because their artistic is asocial language to aim at its exit, its differ with particular and social culture in Chinese mainland in 20th century.The research announces to public, the development process of the Chinese painting in 20th century was molded miraculously by the hand of the history, It contains the symmetrical construction in an abundant variety inside, at the beginning of 20 years, the youth with red-blooded art stepped on the ships in large quantity that west go to new thought that looked for the Chinese new art in developments in droves with the new technical ability, being "5.4 "sports uncovered the Chinese society headed for the prologue of the modern era, with social revolution for background of "art revolution", multiply by the power brought about traditional scholar in judgment painting, establish the new art school in order to introduce the wave tide of western painting.In the last twenty years of the 20th century, Chinese fine arts met another profound innovation in the social trends of reform and opening policy. The vision of creation and study back to the reality and theoretical questions and even reach to the study of developing trails of thousands tradition of Chinese fine arts and western classical, modern. Post Modern arts. The new period paintings for away from the unitary and conceptual color of artistic conception and language form which be influenced by the utility purpose in the last 30. 10 years, and the new arts theory for review the historic process of the happening and development of new arts innovation since the 20th century. The painting creation of this period takes the seeking of reality and beauty as a new power. The two major language forms of abstract art and figural art tried to display the modern character of Chinese painting. These 20 years indicate that the Chinese new fine arts stepped into a prosperity period of painting creation and theory construction, in which multi-element exist together.From the thirties to the seventies in 20th century, the development in an all-round way of Chinese new fine arts and producing the great works, great artist, the painting becomes the image record that Chinese social facing the history with a rocky road and changes in the period. Up to the great social change, creation of new fine arts on one hand shows the main characteristic to denying of traditional fine art, on the other hand, it shows that the tradition in the denying change is explored and inherited with criticizing, and the one that support this development trend, is that fine art fit the requirements of the era in the background of the harsh war, political struggle wholly in the social. Therefore, painting of this period, it is must be limited clearly to the aesthetic tend but shows the characteristic simplified gradually in aesthetic ideas, language form. During these sixty years, regarded central point of century as the circle, before the fifties, painting of "naturalistic" and "only beautiful" two major language forms double variation in creating, and two aesthetic spirit in two-way development in of setting against "for art of art"with" art for life", form new painting to get rid of the classic and the harmony, move towards the lofty and beautiful process. Outbursts of Anti-Japanese War, which influence temporarily development rhythm of changes, but make artistsopen a great outlook that it is higher than individual glad and sad when they create painting. The aesthetic spirit that print art in Yanan shows, make realism creating jumped onto the forward position with the new appearance in Chinese painting field.The needle of time pointed to the central point in the 20th century, the Chinese society finished her great cause to get rid of several millennium feudalism and set up people's new political power, the change gave enormous influence for creating of fine arts." Socialist realism " is regarded as the supreme principle of the artistic creation, pursuing loftily and beautifully of painting creating, under the double function of the specific historical scene of life and the political principle of reality, show clearly as the promote of single goal about glorifying the new life ideal and creating typical image of era. while it also have shown the awkward and difficulty of going toward creating idea and language form. The road is narrow. The fine arts theory of this period, more sharply signify the rational blind spot full of idealism more sharply. In the seventies, to distortion of national political, under the guide of "former"of'three protrude", "red, light, bright", This model creating make moral creative power of Chinese new fine arts strangle nearly.In the last twenty years of the 20th century, Chinese fine arts met another profound innovation in the social trends of reform and opening policy. The vision of creation and study back to the reality and theoretical questions and even reach to the study of developing trails of thousands tradition of Chinese fine arts and western classicah modern. Post Modern arts. The new period paintings for away from the unitary and conceptual color of artistic conception and language form which be influenced by the utility purpose in the last 30. 10 years, and the new arts theory for review the historic process of the happening and development of new arts innovation since the 20th century. The painting creation of this period takes the seeking of reality and beauty as a new power. The two major language forms of abstract art and figural art tried to display the modern character of Chinese painting. These 20 years indicate that the Chinese new fine arts stepped into a prosperity period of painting creation and theory construction, in which multi-element exist together.At turn of the century, on one hand China takes new construction pace in economy emerging by itself, on the other hand international communication and cultural conflict influences strengthened on the Chinese artist day by day. After the hard campaign of saving the nation and turbulent politics, the cultural situation of multi-element exist together implies that different levels, different interesting, and different social cultural people puts forward the diversified demands to fine artistic works, and the situation also offered the realistic soil for Chinese painting creation, to made it let a hundred flowers blossom, let a hundred schools of thought contend.The situation of complementary in setting against, and show each culture, aestheticcharacter in the complementation accumulated the historical course of the 20th arts with the law of the negation of negation, which composed of the leading interesting, the institute interesting, the masses interesting and the pioneer interesting.The century developing course could be summarized with one sentence as to review the hundred years: the modern situation formed, which is the aesthetic ideal transmutation in which with opposite loftiness, the modern creation form in which the multi-element form breaks the single form.At present, the research results of Chinese fine arts of the 20th century shows more analysis to the historical phenomenon and painter's case, and less research and explanation of the whole system with the framework by aesthetic theory method, for the change of Chinese fine arts in the 20th century. There is a creative point of this text, it shown as the spiritual characteristic of aesthetics through describing the historical course of Chinese painting development. The characteristic shows the inner reason of 20l century arts trends, creation and changes, and the relation and clues when they conflict and influence each other at the background of the time. Therefore, XuBeihong's efforts to transform Chinese painting by "the painting realistically" could be exactly hold as a key link from the art of classical harmonious beauty to the art of realism which face to the reality directly, and it could appraise the historical value of the educational thoughts and creating views only if place the efforts between the studying trend of the times of transforming the folk art gradually the west to east at the beginning of the century and the distinct aesthetic character of realism of the print campaign Yanan the forties. Meanwhile, artistic ideological trend, artistic creation phenomenon often demonstrate a repetition of old problem and old and interesting. Only analyze through the logic of dialectical thinking could hold the inherent distillation under the repetition. It's a rising return from the modern change starting point of Chinese painting taking "criticizing a scholar to draw " as theme over the past 100 years, that the recognition and new exploration to national character of traditional water-ink art took place at the end of 20th century. Therefore its a one - sided view which seeing the trees without seeing the forest, if only concluded "scientific doctrine" hindered the normal development of Chinese painting from that. Expound different views to some prevailing views of the academia at present in the article, aim at the strength of theory frame of the article on brought out the question by the result of new angles observation and the theory research approach.
