论黑白摄影的特殊语言

The Comment on the Special Language of Black-white Photography

从生理学的角度来讲,由于黑白灰具有优先唤起视觉神经感知的特性,最能引起人们视觉的关注,而且能打动他们的内心世界。从艺术表现的角度看黑白摄影,由于需要把五彩缤纷的彩色世界转换为单纯的黑白灰天地,把各种的彩色关系概括和凝炼成多种黑白灰的阶调关系来表现被摄物体,这样就构成了黑白摄影独有的特殊语言。黑白摄影的特殊语言涉及到黑白灰的造型语言、情感语言和关系语言三个方面。

From the point of psychology, since the colors of black, white and gray have the priority to evoke visual sense, they attract peoples visual attention and touch peoples inner worlds. From the point of artistic reflection, since the photographers must transform the colorful world into a pure black, white and gray one, they must summarize all kinds of colorful relations into black, white and gray gradation to reflect the objects. And so it constitutes the black-white photography special language. The special language involves three aspects: black, white and gray moulding language, emotional language and relation language.
