作畫是沉默持久的工作。畫家的一生就是搜搜尋尋，隨著年歲增加而壘積加深。畫到終了有無答案恐怕永遠是個謎。唯其如此，

到了一個階段自己往回看看走了多遠也變成重要一環。其中有快樂、有煩惱；樂的是好像作品增加了份量，煩惱則又變成不滿

和猜疑，覺得更好些才對。

我從五十年代後期開始走自己的路，用抽象形式的大方向向前行。抽象在我的理解中卻一點也不單純，比忠於自然外貌的描繪

複雜多了，它終極出現的形像，必都經過了改造，以致初看時難以撲捉其奧妙。現代藝術的另一特點是要發揮媒材本身。繪畫

的啟發更是歷史各階段一再去引證的規則。畫家面對自然與面對歷史我以為正好是一半一半。在我出發的五十年代，最貼近的

一段歷史是抽象表現主義掀起大波瀾的那一段。透過抽象的視點來看自然也就變成我去搜尋的規則。我選用的媒材是油彩與壓

克力 (acrylic)。油彩從後印象主義已出現不同前的生機了。塞尚與梵高都把油彩的膏狀厚度解放了出來，堆積出三度性的空間而

成一種實體。相反一面又能傳達出輕快飄逸，塞尚與梵高的畫兩者俱有。而在抽象表現主義的畫家群可說把油彩的性質徹底發

掘了出來。壓克力顏料還不滿一百年，基本上是仿造油彩的新種，用水來調拌更能在時間效率上撿到便宜──快乾。在這五十

年之中油彩與壓克力都在我的畫上成重要的一環。厚重與稀釋互移互動，都視圖面形像的需要而調整運用。抽象解析到最後可

成一條線，一個點，成一團色。但是組合成一幅油畫時它的機能又可以無限擴大。東方的道家美學最能洞察其中的玄妙。中國

書畫正是道家美學的精萃。把宇宙、人文、歷史之間的廣大空間都含蓋在內。我覺得該也是抽象藝術可搜求的路線。山水、人物、

花鳥靜物分頭發展了千年了，如果能用一種有效的形式統統含蓋在內，是可能的嗎？立體主義做到了。用自由抽象也應能辦到。

過去十年，我有意無意的在搜求這可能性，這次展覽的作品也都各有呈現。我強調以繪畫性為旨標，而畫材的變化因水與油的

變化突出質地，細微的紋理與色種的混合也用最大可能來控制。畫題則是在不同的指標下由呈現出來的圖像符與的。此展就用

統覽‧微觀來解析。

Holistic View and Microscopic Vision By Chuang CheTranslation by Lesley Ma

Making paintings is a work of taciturnity and endurance. A painter’s life is essentially a continual search. As one ages, the search accumulates in depth. Whether painting until the end would yield any answer remains a mystery. For precisely that, at a certain stage, looking back to see the distance traveled becomes an important assignment. There is joy; there are troubles. Joyful because of the apparent growth in substantiality; troubled by self-doubt and skepticism, feeling that everything could have been better.

I began taking my own path in the late 1950s, embarking on the general direction of abstraction. Abstraction, in my understanding, is not at all simple. It is much more complex than tracing the likeness of nature and its form. The images it ultimately carry all have been transformed, resulting in the difficulty in capturing its wondrousness at first sight. A unique character of modern art lies in the unleashing of the materiality of the medium. Painting inspirations come from repeated citations and proofs from various developments in history. In my opinion, painters confront nature and history in equal measures. At the moment of my beginning in the 1950s, the most immediate history was the strong wave set off by the peak of Abstract Expressionism. Viewing nature through the perspective of abstraction naturally became the principle of my search in art. I chose oil and acrylic as my media. Oil has spawned various strands of vitality since post-Impressionism. Cézanne and Van Gogh both liberated the ointment-like denseness of oil, layering it to create three-dimensional spaces, something of real substance. At the same time, oil can convey lightness, sprightliness, and fleetingness. Cézanne’s and Van Gogh’s paintings embody both effects of oil. And artists of Abstract Expressionism could be said to have explored the potential of oil to its limits. Acrylic, which has been around for less than a hundred years, is fundamentally a new material imitative of oil. With its water-based and fast drying qualities, it is a great bargain in terms of time and efficiency, which further suits modern society’s penchant for speed. In the past fifty years, oil and acrylic are the critical elements in my work. The denseness and diluteness interchange and interact with each other, and they are employed differently accordingly to the need of the image.

Abstraction could be reduced to one line, one dot, or a blot of color. But when combinations of these components form a painting, their functionality can expand limitlessly. Taoism of the East can best observe the mystique within. Chinese calligraphy and painting have precisely extracted such essence from Taoist aesthetics. They encompass the universe, humanity, history, and all the vast space in between. I think this path is also what abstract art should follow. Landscape, human figures, and bird-and-flower genres have developed on their own for thousands of years. Is it possible to use an effective method to encompass them all? Cubism achieved that. Using free-form abstraction could possibly work as well. In the past ten years I consciously and unconsciously searched for this possibility within abstraction. The works in this exhibition host this intention also. I emphasize having painterly quality as mission, using the structure of abstraction to holistically view the changes in painting materials, whose texture and materiality are accentuated by the chemical reactions between oil and water. The resulting intricate grains, patterns and color mixture are treated with the most control possible. The titles are given by images that emerge within the work guided by various indicators. This exhibition thus requires the analytical threads of “holistic view,” “microscopic vision.”

看一幅畫時，常覺得它來自千里之遙。看我畫望你也有同感。

While admiring works of art, one often feels their origins are from the furthest reaches abroad. When you view my own painting creations I hope you will share the same feeling.

劉文潭

俗語說得好：「薑是老的辣！」據我所知在莊喆的心目中，在近代畫壇中，有兩塊薑，既夠老，又夠辣，他倆個是誰呢？告訴你，

一個是他常常鄭重其事地，向年輕朋友提示的：「看看齊白石好了！」；另一個則是他動不動就自然而然提到的「老畢！」不消說，

在莊喆的心目中，齊白石 (1864 – 1957)和畢卡索 (Pablo Picasso 1881 – 1973)。一中，一西，乃是他真心崇拜的英雄和心嚮往之的標竿。

如果你問老畢：「那一幅畫是你最滿意的？」他的答案，永遠是乾脆得不能再乾脆：「下一幅！」你問老莊同樣的問題，他的答案，

縱然和老畢不盡相同，精神上，卻是同氣相求，頗為一致的：「你且等著看就是了，我這就快找到了。」

情形既然如此，我們可以斷言，老莊和老畢一樣，都是不折不扣，道道地地的理想主義者。唯其如此，畢其一生，都不斷朝著

理想目標，努力奮進。

如所周知，理想之所以成其為理想，正是在於它不斷地引導你向它邁進；而它又永遠不會讓你輕易到達：尤其是像老畢和老莊

這種藝術家，他們心懷的理想，說穿了，其實是與時推移的，你前進，它就後退！所以它變得愈來愈遠；愈來愈高！這就難怪

這回老莊要作「畫家一生，就是搜搜尋尋，隨著年歲增加而壘積，加深，畫到終了，有無答案，恐怕永遠還是個謎。」的表白了。

莊喆上次返台在亞洲開展，我和楊興生特地為他和馬浩安排了一次餐會。席間我見他興高采烈地對著我引介的黃進龍、莊伯顯

兩位後生，做出一場言簡意賅的現身說法，他當場津津樂道地提出五個要點；前兩天我和他越洋通話，提到這件事，他又補上

了兩點。言者既然有心，聽者也很在意。那就讓我在此把它們稱為：「老莊論畫七要」吧！

莊喆說：「我覺得畫到晚年，作畫，第一、要準；第二、要狠；第三、要忍；第四、要穩；第五、要潤；第六、要深；第七、要沉。」

若從美學的觀點來看，老莊論畫七要所涉及的，無論是藝術家的創作活動「構想、技法」，或是藝術品的本身「媒介、形式、意涵」

以及觀賞者的感應「趣味、美感」，可謂一應俱全，面面皆到！

在此，我沒有必要強作解人，只消轉告讀友，在口頭上，老莊只向我提到，所謂穩，關係到的是平衡；忍，關係到的是彈性和力道；

潤，是畫面不要顯得生硬；而狠，他說：「看看齊白石，那線條是多麼的不同凡響！」；沉，是指重量；至於準，當然是指精準；

這倒使我立刻想起台北故宮收藏的那位當眾指証：「孔雀升高，必先舉左！」而令眾工駭服的宋徽宗來。他所畫的那幅「蠟梅

山禽」：兩隻緊緊依偎的白頭翁，是以十分細膩的筆法畫成；就連梅枝，也表現出清楚的質地和紋理。當然我明白莊喆並非指

美學家兼藝術評論家

莊喆個展自述

／「統覽‧

微觀」申論

時去也，意興正濃；秋來也，造極登峯

此而言，但是，觀察入微、意到筆隨的功力，卻是初無二致的。那麼深呢？可能是

因為他認為無需再作提示；也可能是一時之間，他忘了提。不過，我所想到的則是

陶淵明飲酒詩中所提及的「此中有真意，欲辯已忘言。」真意為何？相對於老莊而言，

想必就是天人合一，不似之似的美妙境界吧！

莊喆告訴我們，他早在 50年代便已決定採用抽象的形式來從事創作。並且他打一開

始就明白，這比忠於自然外貌要複雜得多。像這樣一路走來，走到如今，他乾脆以

「繪畫性」為旨標。把話說白了，就是提醒我們，最好把他的畫，當作畫來看待，

至於畫的是些甚麼，無論是山水、人物、花鳥、靜物⋯等等一切，他都竭盡心思，

統攝在他最後呈現出來的抽象結構之中。既然抽象的結構不同於自然的外貌，所以

他要看畫的人，自己去思考，得出來的意象，愈豐富愈好。老莊一向贊同多義、多象。

他鼓勵看他畫的人，以自由心證的方式，從他的畫裡多看出一些名堂。這也就是說，

看畫的人，如是人在畫外，而能心入畫內，那就大可陪同老莊，盡情享受人間、自然、

宇宙間的無盡藏了。苟能如此，福氣可就大啦！

這次，莊喆在亞洲藝術中心展出的畫作，依序是：

一、青山疊翠 (2001)

二、遠立 (2006)

三、煙籠寒水 (2006)

四、空谷清音 (2007)

五、回音谷 (2007)

六、生機滿溢 (2009)

七、雲谷 (2010)

八、聖山 (1995~1996)

這十五幅畫，莊喆表明是根據他呈現出來的圖像來命題的。那麼，他在二 OO

六年六月間，向我在書函中表明的「以山水為宗的畫思，該是不會變的了。」

依舊是有效的。

我留意到，莊喆在他這次個展自述 ─「統覽‧微觀」一文中，把「自由抽象」

視為一種可望將山水、人物、花鳥、靜物等等，通通涵蓋在內的一種「有效的

形式」。

時至當今，已經進入了社會文化學者所謂「後現代」的階段。「自由抽象」這

個名稱，很可能會產生誤解，有辨明的必要。

須知，後現代所強調的是創新和自由；不過，也正是因為過份執著創新和自由

的緣故，終致陷入缺乏中心思想和崇高理念的文化困境。所幸，有識之士已經

覺曉：光是反叛和無限的自由是不行的；對於傳統原則的省思與變革，乃是包

含藝術在內，一切文化的命脈。唯有在傳統文化原則存在的情況下，我們才有

機會去突破；而傳統可以增加智慧，原是一種不爭之實。大家在後現代主義中

所學到的最後一課，應是：我們需要自由和限制之間有益的緊張關係。藝術家

也必須扭轉無法無天、肆無忌憚的致命傾向，甘願回歸傳統。如此方可借古開

今，自強不息。

切實而論，當前中國大陸藝術界，之所以一下子冒出不少怪胎，反叛傳統，假

借自由，大量塗抹出許多醜惡不堪，令人作嘔的東西，可以說，也正是因為生

逢其時。

相較之下，莊喆所謂的自由抽象，充其量只在表示，他有意拉遠忠於自然外貌

的距離。關於這一點，我早已指証過：在老莊內心的深處，一向就存有一條「文

化中國的歷史條鍊」；而他這次在自述文中，也再次聲明：「畫家面對自然，

與面對歷史，我以為正是一半一半」。就憑他所面對的這一半，如何除舊佈新，

九、石蒼雲燦 (2010)

十、吉峰向暖 (2010)

十一、早春 (2010)

十二、茫 (2012)

十四、鑲紅引綠 (2012)

以創作來承接傳統，也就理所當然地成了他責無旁貸，當仁不讓的歷史文化使命。

「好的傳統，永遠是好的現代；好的創作，永遠是好的傳統！」這是我記下寇培深

道兄生前留下的名言。而至少是在十二年前，莊喆就曾向我對此大表贊同。說實話，

在我的心目中，他們兩位都是很有使命感的藝術家，非常值得我們敬重！

「台上一分鐘，台下十年功！」這是我們常常在藝文活動的場合中，聽到的順口溜，

偏偏這個順口溜，一語就道破了藝術家的不凡成就，必須付出的代價。

莊喆朝夕與油彩、壓克力廝磨。屈指一算，不覺已足有五十多年，早就超出十年許

多，許多！在這當中，他越來越摸清楚它們哥兒倆一個厚重、一個輕快的個性。而

它們哥兒倆，也越來越聽從莊喆的使喚。甚麼叫「熟能生巧」；甚麼叫「得心應手」；

甚麼叫「隨心所欲」，當你面對莊喆的畫作，仔細查看他到底使出了多少種手段，

驅使它倆，逼著它們各自施展出渾身解數，圓滿達成他賦予他倆的表現任務，你就

會在心領神會之餘，禁不住拍手叫絕了！

猶記 43年前，我曾為莊喆寫了一首總結其畫風的四言詩：

寓力於美，藏華於質；妙造自然，離形得似。

當時，國立歷史博物館何浩天館長在電視廣播中引述了這首詩，使得它一時之間流

傳甚廣，這也算得上是趣聞一樁吧！

走筆至此，我這篇恭謹不如從命的申論，也該適時打住了。

聽說這次個展，莊喆伉儷因故缺席。那就讓我在此為他打造一付對聯，聊表老友述

實、祝禱的一番心意吧！

時去也，意興正濃，

秋來也，造極登峯！

Time passed, to be highly enthusiasticAutumn's coming, to reach great heights!

Essay on Chuang Che’s Artist Statement for His Solo Exhibition: Thoughts on “Holistic View, Microscopic Vision”

By aesthetician and art critic Liu Wen-Tan

A Chinese aphorism goes: wine tastes better over time. To my knowledge, in Chuang Che’s mind, there are two such “wines” in modern art, both aged well and host ample flavors, but who are they? I’ll tell you, one he often mentions with all seriousness to young aspiring artists: “Go admire the works of Qi Baishi!” The other is whom he speaks about frequently and somewhat irreverently, the “Old Pablo.” Needless to say, in Chuang Che’s mind, the two masters of modern art are Qi Baishi (1864 – 1957) and Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973). One Chinese, one Western, both wholeheartedly admired as the heroes of his heart and with lofty heights to which he aspires to emulate.

If one were to ask Old Pablo: “Which is your favorite work?” His answer is always without hesitation: “next one!” If you asked Old Chuang the same question, his answer would be different from that of Picasso while sharing a common spirit: “You just wait and see, I have nearly found it.”

Given such, we can conclude that Chuang and Picasso are full-blown, genuine idealists. Thus, they strive, at every step along the way to move toward their ideal goal, arduously progressing along.

As it is said, an ideal arises to the level of ideality through continuously guiding one toward it; whilst it also ensures that an easy capture remains ever difficult. This is especially so for artistic geniuses like Picasso and Chuang, whose hearts are filled with ideals that evolve over time. If you inch forward, it retreats away! Thus the ideal becomes more distant and lofty! Hence we can understand why Chuang confesses this time with such statement: “A painter’s life is essentially a continual search. As one ages, the search accumulates in depth. Whether painting until the end would yield any answer remains a mystery.”

Last time when Chuang Che returned to Taiwan for his solo exhibition at Asia Art Center, Yang Hsing-sheng and I arranged a special dinner for him and Ma Hao. During the dinner, I saw him explaining with such high spirit to Huang Chin-lung and Chuang Po-hsien, two artists of a younger generation, in simple but quite persuasive terms, about “five basic guidelines.” Two days ago we discussed this matter on the phone, when he added two more points. As the speaker had strong convictions, the listener naturally was quite taken. So let me now refer to them as “Chuang Che’s Seven Painting Musts.”

Chuang Che said: “I have realized as I age, painting, firstly, must be precise; second, must be merciless; third, must be enduring; fourth, must be steady; fifth, must be smooth; sixth, must possess depth; and seventh, must be weighty.”

So from an aesthetic perspective, “Chuang Che’s Seven Painting Musts” not only refer to the artist’s creative endeavoring for concept and technique, or the art work’s medium, style, and signification, but also to the viewer’s response to intrigue and beauty. It is all-encompassing and comprehensive!瑞雪 Auspicious Snow 1985. 43x58.5cm　Oil on paper

Here, I have no pressing need to act but am merely advising my readers what Master Chuang verbally offered. To be steady requires balance; to endure, means a dependency on elasticity and force; one must achieve smoothness, so that the image does not appear stiff; and as for mercilessness, he exclaims: “Look at the work of Qi Baishi, how the lines are so uniquely magnificent!” Weightiness, refers to mass. As for precision, it of course means accuracy; it actually reminds me of the one whose work is in the collection of the National Palace Museum – Song Huizong – who astonishingly impressed all artisans by pointing out: “When a peacock lifts itself, it always raises its left leg first!” In Huizong’s Winter Plum Blossoms and Mountain Pheasants, the intimate embrace of two Chinese bulbul is executed by delicate brushwork. Even the plum blossom branches were executed with meticulous texture and patterns. Of course I know that Chuang was not referring to this particular work, but, the ability to be observant to detail and make the brush follow one’s mind is identical with his intention.

But what about depth? Perhaps he thought it needn’t be explained, or perhaps, he simply forgot to elaborate. But, to me, it conjured up Tao Yuanming’s poem on imbibing which goes: “Here resides true significance, so there is nothing left to debate.” What true significance? To Chuang Che, it must be the harmonious unity of one’s self and destiny, an amazing zone of uncanny resemblance!

Chuang Che has informed us, as early as the 1950s he had chosen abstraction as his style of painting. He also understood from the beginning, his creative process entails much more than mere fidelity to the natural appearance of things. Traveling on such path, he has identified the goal of “painterly quality.” Put more simply, as a reminder to us all, it is best to consider his painting for painting’s sake. Whatever the content – landscape, human figures, bird and flower, or still life, he has exhaustively embedded them all within the abstractionist structures. And since the abstractionist structure differs from that of natural appearance, he asks his viewers to think on their own to produce its significance, as abundant as possible. Chuang Che has always believed in multiple meanings and forms. He encourages admirers of his works to rely on their own sensibilities and sensitivities to see the nuances in his work.

This is how those who enjoy paintings, especially non-artists, who desire to penetrate the barrier to comprehend paintings, should join Chuang Che, by enjoying uninhibitedly the limitless treasure between our lives in this world, nature, the universe. This way, the blessings in our life can truly be amazing!

In this exhibition at the Asia Art Center, Chuang Che will show the following works:

1. Lushly Green Mountain (2001)

2. Standing Away (2006)

3. Freezing Water amidst Fog (2006)

4. Voiceless of the Valley (2007)

5. Echo Valley (2007)

6. Overfilling Vitality (2009)

7. Cloudy Valley (2010)

8. Holy Mountain (2010)

9. Green Rock and Splendid Cloud (2010)

10. Auspicious Peak Facing Warmth (2010)

11. Early Spring (2010)

12. Hazy (2012)

13. Encountering Spring (2012)

14. Red and Green Embeded (2012)

15. Looking Atop (2012)

These fifteen paintings all employ titles evoked by images within themselves, Chuang Che acknowledges. Thus, his remarks in June 2006 in a letter to me indicating “Recognizing landscape as the foundation of one’s artistic inspiration is not likely to be altered” still seem to ring true.

I also noticed that Chuang Che, in the artistic statement of this solo exhibition “Holistic View, Microscopic Vision,” treats free abstraction as an “effective form” that encompasses landscape, human figure, bird and flower, and still life.

Today, we have entered what the socio-culturalists refer to as the “postmodern” era. The concept of “free abstraction” may bear misconceptions, so it needs clarifications.

A case in point: in today’s Mainland Chinese art saw an emergence of so many absurd artists, who reject tradition in the name of freedom and produce truly grotesque and revolting expressions. They work merely reflects their time.

11

It was some 43 years ago that I first wrote this poem for Chuang Che to summarize his painting style:

A most powerful beauty, Refined within elegant flowery; Seizing the nature artistically,not naturalism but rhythmically.

Back then, the Director of the National Museum of History, Ho Hao-tien, recited this poem on television, ensuring the poem reaching a wide audience. Surely this too is another among many interesting anecdotes related to this work!

As my page reaches its fullness, this work has strived to explain my perspective, but perhaps self-restraint is better.

I understand that the Chuangs will regrettably be absent on the occasion of the solo exhibition. However, I hope that my following couplet will express my fondest wishes for a long, long life in good health for my dear friend and admired artist!

Time passed, to be highly enthusiasticAutumn's coming, to reach great heights!

September 4th, 2012 6:27pm

One must know that postmodernism emphasizes innovation and individualism. However, it is precisely because of the overemphasis on such that we find the cultural predicament of the loss of core values and of sophisticated vision. Luckily, though, some among us have become enlightened: mere rebellion and unfettered freedom are not enough; instead we must reflect upon and radicalize our traditions, which includes art and holds the life line to all cultures. It is only when we actively preserve our traditional cultural values that we have the opportunity to achieve genuine breakthroughs. Tradition can enhance our wisdom, as we all admit to be true. So as we all learn from our last lesson in postmodernism: we thrive on the beneficial tension between freedom and restraint. Artists must also move beyond the ungovernable and uninhibited tendency to push art to the extreme and willingly return to grounding in tradition. It is only then that we can borrow from our past to illuminate our present and be assured of our sustainable strength.

In contrast, Chuang Che’s free-form abstraction refers mostly to how he intentionally distances himself from a fidelity to the natural appearance of things. In regard to this, I long ago noted: deep in Chuang’s heart, there lies a “profound historical link to culturally China.” In his statement, he reiterates: “Painters confront nature and history in equal measures”. His confrontation to history is laden with the task of replacing the archaic with the new and creating works to continue tradition, which naturally becomes an unquestioned responsibility and a historical and cultural destiny for him. “Proper traditions, will always make for a proper present; excellent creations, will always formulate excellent traditions!” This is a quote I remember from the late Kou Peishen. And it was at least twelve years ago that Chuang Che expressed his favorable impression for this point of view. To tell you the truth, in the deepest recesses of my heart, both of these artists have a profound sense of responsibility and deserve our earnest respect!

“One minute at the dais, from ten years behind the desk!” is an aphorism often delivered casually in the arts. But it quite succinctly captures the price the artist must pay for their success.

Chuang Che labors relentlessly with oil and acrylic, day and night. Now he has already been engaged in his art for more than five decades, in decade upon decade! During this time, he has developed close bonds with these two “buddies,” one heavy and dense while the other light, sprightly, and fleeting. And these two have become closely bound to the commands of their Master Chuang. What we mean by “well honed skills”; or “techniques honed from the heart”; or “soulfully inspired,” is answered one after another when I view the paintings of Chuang Che. By carefully inspecting his deft artistry in commanding these two media as he forces them to reveal their nature and potential as they complete their tasks of expression, you could not help but applaud such mastery!
