艺术语言的更新与革命

The Renewal and Revolution of Artistic Language

各门类艺术史的后半段由艺术语言的更新和革命两个阶段构成,前者是量变,后者是质变。“更新”指特定门类艺术中艺术语言系统的材料、工具和技术三要素发生了独立或组合性革新,从而为该门类艺术带来一定程度或某种意义上的新改观。“革命”则指特定门类艺术的艺术语言系统围绕材料、工具、技术和视野四要素发生了独立或合成性重大变革,从而导致原门类艺术之衰微或崭新的门类艺术之产生,为艺术领域带来全局性的、持久的、深刻的影响。

The latter half of the history of various art genres consists of two stages:the updating of artistic language and the revolution.The former is a quantitative change,while the latter is a qualitative one.The“renewal”refers to the independent or combinatorial innovation of materials,tools,and techniques of the artistic language system in a specific category of art,which brings a certain degree or significance of new changes to that category of art.The“revolution”refers to the significant,independent or synthetic changes in the artistic language system of a specific category of art around the four elements of materials,tools,technology,and vision,which leads to the decline of the original category of art or the emergence of new categories of art,thus bringing a global,lasting,and profound impact to the field of art.
