The previous college entrance examination for fine arts majors and the joint entrance examination for the Academy of Fine Arts were aimed at beginners who intend to enter the art field, to see if they have the basic quality and ability to study and study art in depth and make achievements in art in the future.
Is the exam, there must be clear standards and requirements.
First of all, western painting has scientific basis. China's paintings emphasize freehand brushwork. This is obvious, and it may also be caused by the long-standing way of thinking in China and the West. For example, in ancient China, it was basically "rule by man", while in western countries, it was "rule by law" with great demonstration and logic. Now our country is also striving for "rule of law", really because "rule by man" has many disadvantages, and the requirements for "rule by law" and "people" are too high. Off topic ...)
Most importantly, western painting is a kind of scientific painting, the basis of realistic art, the basic skill of painting, and the basis of artistic expression that you still need no matter how high your artistic accomplishment and artistic theory are.
Western painting is developed on the basis of human anatomy, light and shadow physical analysis and color theory. It is scientific and regular, and it is necessary to learn realistic art. The development of western painting for many years has also made it have a complete system and theory. 10 years old can only learn to master after having a strong understanding ability. Besides genius, the watch tells me that Rodin can draw very well at the age of 9 ...
Of course, it's not that China's paintings have no theory, system and feelings, but China's paintings do have more emotional elements, which is called freehand brushwork.
What is freehand brushwork? Freehand brushwork is an artist's emotional expression and a very personal thing. In fact, western paintings are also freehand brushwork, but it is often after learning the realistic foundation that artists have a high artistic accomplishment and artistic expression ability.
What about college entrance examination candidates?
Freehand brushwork is actually based on the feelings of candidates (this sentence is only for beginners). To tell the truth, many students are in an introductory state of painting before the exam. I'm afraid he doesn't even know what he wants to feel. Without a solid realistic foundation, artistic expression ability and high artistic accomplishment, even if you don't know what you want to express, the Academy of Fine Arts won't visit.
Therefore, the college entrance examination can only choose western painting as the basis, because as long as students can understand the basic anatomical structure, color theory and have correct observation methods, they can continue to learn realistic art as the basis of modern art. There is no way to choose Chinese painting, because it is more abstract and emotional, and it is impossible to draw conclusions in three hours or a day or two.
Can you understand this explanation? ~
College entrance examination composition ... to be honest, I really don't have this research. My personal feeling is that originality and practicality are necessary. Although there are many high scores, most high-scoring compositions still have some merits to point out. In short, first of all, we must be particularly fresh, speak well, and let those marking teachers give high marks ~
