试论元青花中人物故事题材作品对写意人物画的促进作用

Discussion On the Facilitating Effects of Figure Story Theme on Freehand Figure Paintings in Blue-and-White Porcelain of Yuan Dynasty

中国文化历来重道而轻器,瓷器作为造物一直只是一种实用或者陈设的器具,上面的图形也多作为装饰元素出现。而元青花上的人物故事题材作品所呈现的绘画方式和艺术水平,都走在了当时人物画的最前沿,甚至为后来水墨写意人物画的繁兴开启了先声。与常见的"纯艺术"影响和引领工艺、设计发展的一般规律有所不同,这种器物上的图像超越同时代"纯美术"并具备启后作用的现象在中国造物史上或许仅此一例。

In the Chinese culture, people used to pay less emphasis on the objects than on the ideology, therefore, the porcelains were simply used as furnishings or practical daily utensils, and the drawings on porcelains were only regarded as the decorative elements. The painting style and artistic level of the figure story paintings in blue-andwhite porcelain of Yuan Dynasty led the trend in the figure paintings at that time and even created the precedent of the prosperity of Chinese freehand figure painting. It is different from the impacts of the common ＂pure arts＂ and their leading role in the creation development, the paintings on these porcelains, far superior to all other contemporary arts, were unique in its leading role in the history of Chinese utensils creation.
