尤伦斯当代艺术中心的王兴伟,《无题 (老太太 No. 2 )》
自九十年代中期以来,王兴伟开创了一种极具说服力的绘画观。和同时代的其他中国画家一样,王兴伟继承了社会主义现实主义的大传统。他不仅掌握了这种绘画模式的语法和词汇,更对自己所继承的视觉语言始终保持反思的警觉,在使用过程中不断翻新。过去二十年来,王兴伟通过他机智而古怪的感知力,创作了大量内容丰富的作品,巧妙地连接起了西方指涉对象、革命传统和当下的文化语境。

The Gust of Wind是居斯塔夫·库尔贝于c. 1865年创作的,收藏方: The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston。
另外今天的导言:
The Gust of Wind—Gustave Courbet’s largest canvas devoted solely to landscape—was commissioned to decorate a room in the grand Parisian house of the Duke de Bojano. The artist was probably asked to paint a storm, and he approached the task with ferocious energy.
Courbet displays his entire range of technical brilliance as well as his intense personal emotion in this vivid landscape. Dark clouds loom over a panoramic view of windswept oaks that lead the eye from the craggy rock formations and pool of the foreground to the still-sunlit mountain range in the far distance. Whereas the mountains are painted with small, delicate brushstrokes, Courbet made use of the palette knife as well as the brush to create the vibrant effects of the foreground. The rocks take on a sculptural, almost three-dimensional quality thanks to the thick buildup of paint with the knife; by contrast, the tree trunks and branches are created with oily drags of a soft brush, and the leaves are rendered through vague stipple marks.
The landscape is probably a site in the Forest of Fontainebleau, a vast expanse of virtually untouched forest a short distance from Paris. Courbet's inclusion of the mountain range, which does not exist in proximity to the forest, transforms this very realistic setting into a type of fantasy.
