「我的生命中一無所有，我只是個畫家。—常玉」

前陣子北上看〈奧賽美術館30週年大展〉順道去〈歷史博物館〉看常玉(San-Yu/Chang-Yu, 1901年10月14日誕辰生日－1966年8月12日去世)的展覽。他的作品很單純，看到的畫面就是他想表達的!! 而特別的是他不在意畫錯，認為錯誤的痕跡對完成後的作品無礙?!! 我覺得常玉有許多的精神是我需要學習的。不矯情與不刻意修飾的作品充滿藝術的味道，其中我最愛的一幅畫是《藍夜花豹》，作品中只有單純的深藍色夜空與一片土黃色的沙漠，配上兩隻慵懶的花豹，畫面所呈現的觀感是很直接的，療癒與放鬆!!

San-yu 1901–1966 was a Chinese-French painter, Recently I went to see exhibition of San-Yu in the History Museum , his artwork is very simple, seeing everything what he wanted to express! The special that he did not care painting wrong that the error mark is also part of the work, so I think that need to learn from him!!!! I like this《Leopards at Night》most of his artworks!! The peaceful night that well matched two lazy leopard, It’s very quiet and relaxed !! 🙂

而常玉速寫的特色就是宇宙大腿 ，把女性婀娜多姿的線條誇飾出來覺得很有趣，可惜這麼有才華的常玉懷才不遇，雖然出生於名門望族且不愁吃穿，但為了理想遠赴巴黎，而後期的他過得窮苦，直到過世之後才成名…。我想他最大的幸運就是遇上了幾位志同道合的好夥伴，其中中國籍藝術畫家吳冠中曾形容常玉是”巴黎花園裡的東方盆景” (東方馬諦斯之稱)，這是一個很有意義與深遠的封號···。
