Huang Binhong Ink And Nature Sense

By choosing the argument of Huang Binhong, I chose a hard journey in modern Chinese painting history. There are too many studies on Huang Binhong, and as a foreign student, I do not know how to start. But facing so many works, I can't retreat. I can only choose the golden mean along Chinese type thinking.This is to take Huang Binhong's life as discussion focus. In Preface to the Painting of Landscape, Zong Bing once brings "Spiritual Travel" into Chinese painting history as spirit of Chinese painting. So I choose Mr. Huang Binhong's lifetime pursuit of art as foothold, and hope to follow his life track and make It just happen that way like water flowing. The historical background of Huang Binhong's life is just the time of most changeable and unpredictable. This historical background builds romantic life of Huang Binhong. The wheel of history records only track of big theme in history and has never care about personal details in history. Personal details are ground into pieces with no trace.So my foothold lies in the word of "travel", and grasp the state and phenomenon of Chinese painting aesthetics after this true and believable artist practice through this word of "travel". Huang Binhong is undoubtedly such kind of artist, "walking ten thousand miles of roads and reading ten thousands of books" (map, display of Huang Binhong's hard life)The second foothold, I will focus on Huang Binhong's humanism ecological environment, in other words, communication with people. So the question here "person", itself is a problem. "Person" is formed by surrounding the personal history status, identity and self. Now, we also know that it contains a lot of consciousness, because people generally understand that they are built in China's painting hostory. This self-consciousness is fully displayed in Huang Binhong.
