浅谈陇东地区北朝石窟

Brief Discussion on the Grottoes in the Northern Dynasty in the Eastern Gansu

由于陇东地区特殊的地址位置,该地区石窟寺自北魏太和年间开窟造像以来,经历西魏、北周、隋代、唐代以及宋金元明的发展,形成颇具规模的陇东石窟寺群。造像风格上,从北魏早期的呆板到中晚期褒衣博带的出现和成熟;西魏时期在继承北魏造像风格的同时,形体变得清秀修长;北周时期摆脱了西魏时期瘦骨清像的风格,造像形体丰硕普遍流行。其佛教艺术魅力,不仅受到了来源于中原地区的影响,且具有浓厚的区域特色,为研究我国佛教艺术提供了重要的参考资料。

Due to the special location of the eastern Gansu area,the grottoes have formed a largescale grottoes complex since the statues were caved during the Taihe Period in the Northern Wei Dynasty,then gone through the development of the Western Wei Dynasty,Northern Zhou Dynasty,the Sui Dynasty,the Tang Dynasty,and the Song-Jin-Yuan-Ming Dynasties.The style of statues from the rigid in the early period of the Northern Wei Dynasty became to the appearance of the clothing belt in the middle and late stages of the Wei Dynasty.While inheriting the style of the Northern Wei Dynasty,the body of status became beautiful and slender in the Western Wei Dynasty,and the status abandoned the style of thin bones and clear statues in last period to become rather large shape in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.The charm of Buddhist art was not only influenced by the origin of the Central Plains,but also has strong regional characteristics,which provides important reference for the study of Chinese Buddhist art.
