高踞分水岭上的巨人──试论苏轼与文人画的发展

A Giant Standing above the Watershed

苏轼作为一位高踞于中国绘画美学思想及其实践发展史之分水岭上的巨人，最早系统性地开创了抒情写意、笔恣墨韵的中国文人画，冲破了魏晋以来重形似、尊神权、重教化、勾勒填彩的院体风格，直接导致了中国传统绘画艺术风格的重大转变。

A liteng master setting up a milestone in the Chinese literary history as well as in aesthetic thinking and practice in painting, Su Shi created a style of Chinese liteopn's painting which was chanteristic of conveying emotions through freehand brushwork, thus breaking through the stereotype of imperial-court decorative painting which had been handed down since the Wei and the Jing Dynasties, and that had been emphasizihg formal resemblance, respecting the rule by divine right and enlightenment by education, and drawing the outline first and then filling in colour.
