西风吹拂下的晚清民国艺术

晚清民国,中国艺术处于前所未有的历史转型时期。这一时期的艺术是西风吹拂下的艺术,是中西杂陈、新旧交并的艺术,西方艺术的写实主义被引入作为革新旧艺术的利器。20世纪中叶由于社会原因,中国艺术又从写实主义过渡到现实主义。处于这一时期的艺术家,关注社会,心系国家,把艺术革新跟社会革新、跟国家的命运紧密联系起来。而这一切,都是因为"内外交困",这一切也都是因为"内外交合"。

Art from Late Qing Dynasty to Republic of China in the West

In the latter Qing dynasty and Republic of China, the Chinese art is in the unprecedented historical reforming stage. That is the art swayed by the west wind, is mixed China and the West, together new and old. The realism in Western art is introduced as a sharp weapon to innovate old art. In the mid-20th century, as a result of the social reason, the Chinese art transited from the realism to the realism. The artists that time pay attention to society, country. They combined closely the innovation of art with the social revolution and the national destiny. All these were because of "difficulties both at home and abroad", also "inside and outside".
