8、 Artistic Style of Contemporary Art What is contemporary art?Contemporary art includes more than fifty types of art that have appeared since the end of World War.An important shift in the art world occurred when New York City replaced Paris as the center of the art world.In the 1950s,artists like Ja

10、 reflected his time.In the New York art scene in the 1960s and 1970s,there was also a split between artists ascribing to Formalism and Anti-Formalism.Formalism focuses on formal achievements of visual art,including the design elements of direction,size,texture,line,shape,color,and value.Anti-Formali
11、sm debunks the importance of design elements and introduces new forms of art such as installations,videos,and performance art.Understanding contemporary art requires the study of many-isms in six decades of art.The common denominator is that artistic talent must be recognized formally by the art wor
12、ld.Some contemporary artists reflect the influence of Modernism,including Impressionism,Surrealism,and Cubism,and others break away with Post-Modernism,including no connections to past art movements.译文大连理工大学出版社Reading InPart II当代艺术的风格介绍当代艺术的风格介绍什么是当代艺术？自二战以后，有超过五十种的当代艺术形式出现，都属于当代艺术的范畴。当纽约取代巴黎成为艺术世界中
13、心的时候，艺术界的一个重要进步出现了。在二十世纪五十年代，像杰克逊波洛克一类的艺术家和抽象表现派领导了追求抽象的运动；在二十世纪六十年代，美国艺术家安迪沃霍尔和其他的一些艺术家打破了传统艺术转移到了商业艺术，统称波普艺术。他的成名作品是使用名人和商业物品，例如坎贝尔浓汤罐头来创作能表现他的时代的艺术。在二十世纪六、七十年代，纽约艺术界存在两种对立的艺术家阵营形式主义和反形式主义。形式主义侧重于视觉艺术的形式元素，包括方向、大小、结构、线条、形状、颜色和数值等设计元素。而反形式主义并不看重设计元素的重要性，而是引入新的艺术形式，如装置艺术、影像艺术、行为艺术等。要想理解当代艺术，首先要学习六十年
14、内艺术界出现的各种主义。而其中一个共同特征就是艺术的才能必须得到艺术界的公认。一些当代艺术家的作品反映出受到了现代主义诸如印象主义、超现实主义和立体主义等的影响，而另一些艺术家却表现为与后现代主义的决裂，与以往的艺术潮流毫无瓜葛。大连理工大学出版社Reading InPart II Lyrical Abstraction,with features of abstraction,movement,emotion,and design,moved away from Minimalism and Conceptual Art,abandoning geometry and hard lines.
15、Dan Christensen offers a good example of Lyrical Abstraction.Born in 1942 in Cozad,Nebraska,Christensen completed art training at the Kansas City Art Institute.He painted for over forty years and died in 2007.His early work from 1965-1966 was related to Minimalism.He has had more than seventy-five s
16、olo exhibitions and his work has been included in hundreds of group exhibitions.His paintings are in important museum collections throughout the United States and Europe.Artist Ronnie Landfield describes Christensen:Like Henri Matisse and Jackson Pollock,two artists whom Christensen greatly admired,
17、his work embraced change and movement.While contemporary art represents formal recognition by collectors,museums,galleries,art schools,and public organizations,artists have produced many art forms under this classification.In the post-information age,you can decide if newer media like digital and vi
18、deo works are true forms of contemporary art.译文大连理工大学出版社Reading InPart II抒情抽象，具有抽象，运动，情感和设计这些特征，和极简主义与观念艺术背道而驰，摒弃了对几何形态和硬线条的追求。丹克里斯汀为抒情抽象主义贡献了一个很好的范例。1942 年生于内布拉斯加州的科萨，丹克里斯汀在堪萨斯城市艺术学院完成了艺术训练。他绘画超过四十年，于 2007 年离世。他早年的作品，从 1965 年到 1966 年是和极简主义相关联的。他举办了超过七十五场个展和上百场群展。他的绘画被遍布美国和欧洲的重要的博物馆收藏。艺术家罗尼拉菲尔德这样描述克
19、里斯汀：像亨利马蒂斯和杰克逊波洛克，这两个被克里斯汀深深崇拜的艺术家，他的作品包含了改变和运动。当代艺术作品已被收藏家、博物馆、美术馆、艺术院校和公众机构所接受和认可，而艺术家又在这一类别下继续创作出了很多艺术形式。在后信息时代，你可以决定更新的媒体像数码和影像作品是否是当代艺术的艺术形式。大连理工大学出版社Reading InPart IIWord Bank大连理工大学出版社Reading InPart IIWord Bank大连理工大学出版社Reading InPart IIWord Bank大连理工大学出版社Reading InPart IIWord Bank大连理工大学出版社Readi
