论武术技术审美的意象创构

On the Creation of Imagery in the Aesthetic Appreciation of Wushu Techniques

武术技术审美是武术审美的重要组成部分,而意象创构又是武术技术审美的内在生成。运用技术美学和中国古典意象思想探究武术技术审美,剖析其意象创构。研究认为,武术技术作为以身体为存在形态的身化技术,兼具技术美学和意象创构的审美价值。武术技术审美的意象结构包含“意”与“象”两个维度,“意”借武术技术外在形态之“象”赋形,“象”以武术技术内在之“意”塑魂,“意”与“象”结合,营造了主客体交融,充满武术技术生命活力的意象世界。武术技术审美的意象创构有“观物取象、立象尽意、味象体道”三个层面,其中,“观物取象”意指武术技术审美的“直观体悟”与“感物起兴”;“立象尽意”是指武术技术审美的“体物得神”与“感物动情”;“味象体道”则是武术技术审美的“象外之象”与“得意忘象”。同时,武术技术审美还有着“原型意象”和“超越性意象”两个层次,原型意象是一种本原性存在的意象,武术技术原型意象体现了集体无意识关联的武术技术文化品格;技术意境是意象的超越,武术技术审美只有深入到“境生象外”的技术意境方能真正感悟武术技术所追求的意象世界。

Aesthetic appreciation of Wushu techniques constitutes a vital element within the realm of Wushu aesthetics,with the creation of imagery being the underlying essence of this appreciation.This study delves into the aesthetic aspect of Wushu techniques by employing the principles of technical aesthetics and traditional Chinese imagery philosophy,dissecting the creation of imagery therein.We contend that Wushu techniques,serving as embodied skills grounded in the human form,hold a dual aesthetic value derived from both technical aesthetics and the crafting of imagery.The imagery structure within the aesthetic appreciation of Wushu techniques encompasses two dimensions:“meaning”and“image”.“Meaning”molds the intrinsic essence of these techniques,while“image”shapes the external manifestation of Wushu techniques.The fusion of“meaning”and“image”yields an imagery-rich world that exudes the vibrancy of Wushu techniques,creating a seamless blend between the subject and object.The imagery creation in the aesthetic appreciation of Wushu techniques can be categorized into three levels:“observing objects to capture image,”which represents intuitive perception and emotional resonance;“establishing image to convey meaning,”signifying the embodiment of spiritual significance and emotional connection;and“relishing image to understand the Dao,”delving into the metaphysical aspects of these images.Furthermore,this aesthetic appreciation of Wushu techniques includes two levels of imagery:“prototype imagery”and“transcendent imagery”.Prototype imagery is an innate and fundamental representation,reflecting the collective unconscious ties embedded within the cultural characteristics of Wushu techniques.The artistic conception of techniques surpasses mere imagery,and a genuine understanding of the world of imagery pursued by Wushu techniques is only achieved when one reaches the level of artistic conception“beyond the image”.
