湖岸幽茫 Reeds by the Lake 釋文：湖岸幽茫。款識：太湖湖面遼闊一望無際，沿湖蘆葦一根根的立在湖岸成片成林，構成了一片片，一叢叢詩意的情境。二 O 一 O 年庚寅之夏，吳士偉畫。鈐印：吳（朱文）、士偉（白文）、幽馥（朱文）、芳菲消息（朱文）、繁枝凝露（白文） Signed Wu Shi-wei in Chinese With five seals of the artist 美的追尋:吳士偉的創作吳士偉曾說:「美的追尋是一段生命追尋的過程。」從中國傳統人文到吳士偉的創作,圍繞著中國藝術的骨幹,無非是「因景而生情,因情而造景」,把眼前看到的繁盛自然景物,再現心靈的境界,要麼滋潤空虛心境,要麼讚頌美好境況,昇華至寄寓盛世的憧憬。宏觀古今中外,瓶花的靜景繪畫是文人民俗喜愛的主題。在中國文人畫中,梅蘭菊竹被喻為君子,盛開的牡丹被聯想為繁華的嚮往。花似乎因各自的品種,被變成一個印象、一種寄寓。對於吳士偉,物象表面的繁盛,均備有更深層的意義。「中國繪畫看似具象,但其中包含了抽象的情境。我在看似繁華錦簇的花卉裡,畫出了內在的孤寂蕭索。因為創作的本質正是如此。」《晚蕊》(拍品編號 632)作品花團錦簇,襯托潔白的背景,平衡妍麗盛放的花朵。畫面採用傳統的對角線構圖,枝葉花朵由下往上方伸展,再傾斜至右下方的空間。花卉草木佔有三分之二的畫面,下方的花瓶似乎快要傾倒。吳士偉卻故意利用透視的玻璃材質與細小的花瓶襯托澎湃的主角,製造視覺的矛盾,引入緊繃的張力,從而尋找舒暢心靈的出口。這種心靈的掙扎彷彿提示藝術家內在的孤寂蕭索,在探索的過程中,尋找安順的路口,卻又是一種別趣。畫中吳士偉選擇利用細微的顏色變化及多重的層次,令景象充滿驚喜和聯想。全圖以深赭色的菊花貫穿主要的基調,灰暗的顏色看似重重的乾花枯葉,帶出孤寂滄桑的淒美。但在這灰暗的色調個中穿插暗紅的碎花,襯托暗紅的桌子,此微妙的顏色變化卻又帶上幾分活潑與樂趣。藝術家個性細膩,透過仔細的觀察及細筆雙鉤的筆法,讓錯綜的線條突顯花卉盛放的百態,有的向上爭妍,有的因地心引力微垂,為靜物添上無限的動感。吳士偉曾說:「我不像其他畫家得刻意找題材,因為生活周遭就有畫不完的材料,看似普通的內容,其實正是平凡見真情啊!」對於這位藝術家來說,細緻的性格讓他懂得欣賞大自然最細微的美。《清游》(拍品編號 631)描繪的正是毫不起眼的小魚兒。它們雖然微小,一群魚兒游泳卻成為另一種景象。每一條小魚均以簡筆一撇,添上兩隻小眼便成形了。數十筆簡筆共組成數群魚兒,向橫幅延伸,佈滿畫面的每一個角落。紛亂的簡筆卻巧妙地展現魚兒的個性:饞嘴的圍起來搶食物,好奇的輕咬海藻,有些卻漫無目的地結伴暢遊。背後的海藻隨著水流飄蕩,成為前面舞者的陪襯,整體畫面疏朗暢逸。吳士偉早年藝專的設計背景,有利藝術家在主題、物象與尺幅,甚至色調上的搭配。《湖岸幽茫》(拍品編號630)以太湖遼闊的蘆葦岸為主題,橫幅的編排,從岸邊的草叢延伸至畫面上方的湖面,呈現湖面的平遠,既得莫奈《睡蓮》靈動的散點透視,亦得北宋郭熙《窠石平遠圖》平遠遼闊的視覺。多元的視點由中上方的蘆葦,帶領至下方色彩穠麗的野花與草叢。面對著吳士偉的作品,當代作家蔣勳曾說:「(藝術家)以基本的文人畫風的線條與墨韻⋯⋯又從民間工藝的系統借來斑斕的艷彩⋯⋯」無論構圖、墨韻、線條的運用,吳士偉的畫作斑斕穠麗,卻又維持著主題的樸素平靜,不愧是一位當代卓越非凡的藝術家。 THE QUEST FOR BEAUTY: WORKS OF WU SHI-WEI WU SHIH-WEI ONCE MENTIONED, "THE QUEST FOR BEAUTY IS THE QUEST OF MY LIFE." Enlightenment through aesthetic appreciation of nature, has been one of the main pillars of Chinese art, from traditional arts to Wu Shih-wei's creations. The beauty of nature shares an appreciation of the mind and of life itself. Still life has been the subject of depiction for centuries in the East and the West. Plum blossoms, orchids, bamboo and chrysanthemums were praised as noble scholars, while peonies represent prosperity. Flowers become a connotation and a blessing. Yet, to Wu Shih-wei, such connotations stay on the surface of appreciation. A representation of nostalgic beauty is the key to Wu's erpretation. Evening Blossom (Lot 632) shows a bouquet of colourful flowers in front of a white background, which balance the visual impact. A diagonal composition was used as flowers poured down from the upper left corner, occupying two third of the panel. A tiny transparent glass vase was used to enhance the heaviness at the top, creating a visual tension for the eye, thus enhancing the pleasure of the viewers. Subtle changes and layering of colours filled the panel with surprises. Chrysanthemums in dark red form the basic tone of the painting. Darker tones of dried flowers initiate the nostalgic emotion, yet it brightens up again with the burgundy red table. With the detail-minded character of the artist, every minute detail is depicted through careful observations and delicate brushwork. Every state of blooms are depicted: some in full blooms,while some slightly collapse under gravity, bringing the painting to life. Instead of capturing an instant, the painting shows flowers in the four seasons from blossoms in spring and summer, to their downfall in autumn and winter, through to their rebirth in spring. Such appreciation of the circle of life allows the artist to fill his studio with flowers of all kinds in all states of life, thus allowing him to observe flowers in their various forms. The artist's praises of life are thus reflected in his works. As the most satisfying and impactful painting to the artist, it was chosen to be put in the invitation card and the poster of the artist's exhibition. To the artist, every minute object of nature could become the subject of his depiction. Such character allows him to paint the minutest subjects of nature. Fish Swimming in the Pond (Lot 631) depicted tiny fish with just a line with two dots. Yet a shoal of fish forms a majestic scenery scattering through the panel. Such clusters of lines highlight the characters of each fish, some grabbing their food, some nibbling algae, while some swimming with their friends. Amidst the topsy turvy scene, algae sway gently behind the fish, forming a relaxing background. Wu Shih-wei's design education background allows him to manipulate the subjects, compositions, structure and colours in a panel. Reeds by the Lake (Lot 630) depict a field of reeds in a horizontal structure. Bushes from the left extend to the right, demonstrating its horizontal depth. Such treatment gives hints to the multiple perspectives of Monet's Waterlilies, and the horizontal distance from a painting by Guo Xi of the Northern Song. Multiple perspectives bring the eye back to the bushes and colourful wild flowers. Contemporary author Chiang Hsun once praised the artist for his playful composition of lines, ink and multifarious colours. From its structure, ink and lines, Wu Shi-wei managed to balance its colours in a tranquil setting, making him one of the greatest artists in the contemporary art scene.
