威廉·透纳的晚期风格——以《威尼斯组画》为中心

The Late Style of William Turner:on the Venice Series

作为英国风景画领域的旗帜性人物,威廉·透纳的晚期风格对于他能获得今天的声誉至关重要。在晚期创作中,透纳以大胆以及近乎抽象的手法,探索了艺术作品中形式与色彩潜在的可能性,这种探索也随着现代艺术的发生显示了画家对当代美学的一种积极参与和拓展。作为透纳晚期在单一主题下完成最多的作品,《威尼斯组画》为我们了解画家的晚期风格提供了关键性的视觉证据。因此,本文旨在结合个体境遇与时代症候对《威尼斯组画》进行分析,通过讨论蕴藏在透纳晚期创作中的审美风格与文化意蕴,并重新思考透纳与法国印象派及西方现代艺术的关系。

The late style of William Turner,a representative artist in British landscape painting,is crucial to the reputation he enjoys today.In his late years,Turner adopted bold and almost abstract techniques to explore the potential of forms and colors in artworks,which represented the artist's active participation in and expansion of contemporary aesthetics along with the emergence of modern art.The Venice series,with the most artworks under a single theme in Turner's late years,provides us with key visual evidence that helps us understand the artist's late style.This paper analyzes the Venice series on the basis of his personal experience and characteristics of the era to discuss the aesthetic style and cultural meaning contained in artworks created in his late life and reconsider the relationship between Turner and French Impressionism and modern art in the west.
