气韵生动与艺术符号的意义动势

Lively Rhythm and Momentum of Artistic Symbols

“气韵生动”概念自诞生以来,其意义内涵不断变化,难以明确界定。从符号美学角度来看,“气韵生动”命题主要处理艺术符号的“动势”品质相关问题。但“气韵生动”这种艺术动势有其独特性,气韵“动势”贯穿着艺术符号的符形、符义、符用三个意义维度,将艺术文本、宇宙自然及社会人生、意义接受等多个维度关联起来,是对艺术“动势”最为深刻且全面的阐释。气韵“动势”之所以能够贯穿符号意义三维,在于其“根茎式”符号空间构造及“生成性”符号意义机制。艺术气韵“动势”以一个动力性符号结构减缓意义世界“熵增”态势,让整个社会文化保持活力。

Since the birth of the concept of"lively rhythm"(qi yun sheng dong),its aesthetic meaning has been changing constantly,and it is difficult to be clearly defined.From the perspective of semiotics,the concept of"lively rhythm"mainly deals with the"momentum"of art signs.Most prominent features of"lively rhythm"is to associate the art text with the universe,nature,social life,acceptance of meaning and other dimensions.The"momentum"of"lively rhythm"runs through the three dimensions of meaning:syntactics,semantics and pragmatics,and is the most comprehensive and profound interpretation of art's"momentum".The reason why the"momentum"of"lively rhythm"can run through three dimensions of artistic sign meaning lies in its"rhizomatic"sign structure and"becoming"sign meaning mechanism.The"momentum"of"lively rhythm"slows down the"entropy"of the meaning world with a dynamic structure of artistic sign,so that the whole society and culture can maintain its vitality.
