传承启新潜心渐行——评甘肃画院“朝圣·敦煌”美术创作工程

Carrying forward Traditions,Making Innovations and Moving forward Step by Step:Commentary on the"Pilgrimage·Dunhuang"Artistic Creation Project of the Gansu Academy of Painting

“朝圣·敦煌”美术创作工程是甘肃省委、省政府积极响应国家“一带一路”倡议而确立的一项重大文化工程,由甘肃画院的全体画家担当此任。该工程自立项以来,主要分两期进行,一期工程以组织画家临摹敦煌壁画为起点,以考察国内其他石窟艺术为辅助手段,创作出了大量蕴含敦煌元素并体现西部艺术风貌的美术作品;二期工程引入课题式管理机制,鼓励画家展现各自的艺术才华,在原有艺术成果的基础上,寻找再现敦煌艺术风貌的突破口。经过11年的不懈努力,两期创作工程完成的作品主题突出、风格鲜明,赋予古老的敦煌壁画艺术以新的时代特色,体现出甘肃画院全体画家守土有责的文化立场。

The"Pilgrimage.Dunhuang"Artistic Creation Project is a major cultural project established by the Gansu Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government in active response to the Belt and Road Initiative,to which all painters of the Gansu Academy of Painting have contributed their part.Since its initiation,the project has been mainly carried out in two phases:first,painters were organized to copy murals in Dunhuang grottoes while examining other grottoes in China,to create a large number of artworks with Dunhuang elements that demonstrate the artistic style in western China;second,a theme-based management mechanism was introduced to give full play to painters'talent and make breakthroughs in reproducing the artistic style of Dunhuang on the basis of existing artistic achievements.After eleven years of unremitting efforts,artworks completed in the two phases feature distinctive themes and styles,bringing characteristics of the new era to ancient mural art in Dunhuang and reflecting the cultural responsibility of all painters of the Gansu Academy of Painting.
