艾青从画家到诗人的转变轨迹管窥

Ai Qing’s Transformation From Painter to Poet

20世纪30年代的现代诗坛,艾青横空出世。在步入诗坛之前,艾青是个十足的、现代的美术青年,他最主要的素养准备和积累都集中在了对西方美术的兴趣和爱好上,尤其是醉心于法国近现代以来的印象主义绘画、现代主义绘画。1932年的牢狱事件,促成了他由画画向写诗的转变。这一偶然性转变的背后,实有其内在的深层原因,他所接受的西方现代美术资源,使他这样一位没有受过学院式诗歌写作教育、中国古典文学修养匮乏的美术青年在另一片天地中国现代新诗的领域绽放异彩,成为了中国新诗史上不可复制的艺术典范。
