春涧迷花--78×108cm---2009年

意象之间

      邵大箴

    读丁寺钟的水彩画是一种享受，这种享受既是形式美感的，也是艺术哲理的。丁寺钟不是追求纯形式美感的艺术家，他的作品饱含着来自客观自然的勃勃生机。一切艺术创造本身，都免不了包含意象的成分，而“意象说”则是艺术家们为了充分发挥自己的想象力和创造性所做的一种自觉追求。丁寺钟是在意象创造上有杰出表现的艺术家。

徽州意象·斑斓---49×109cm--2009年

    丁寺钟意象水彩的新探索绝不意味他对写实具象表现方法的鄙弃，只是他在对自然、对现实体验和思考的过程中产生的内心感情、内心体验和内心冲动，驱使他做出新的尝试。此外，他新的创作欲望之所以产生，还由于他对艺术现代感的理解和他对传统水墨的迷恋。丁寺钟在水彩艺术上的创新中没有矫情和造作，没有雕琢的痕迹。他将传统中国画点擦皴染的“笔墨”功力与西画的块面造型及构成法巧妙的结合在一起，用来真实地吐露自己的感情。他的近乎抽象的意象水彩画也与西方的许多抽象画不同，有东方的、中国的情韵，有激越不失沉稳、犷放不失严谨的气度。很有意思的是，他的早期偏向写实的水彩画与他近几年来较为抽象的创作，虽然表现手法迥异，但精神趋向却一脉相承：追求一种境界，那是他心灵与自然交融的一种诗的境界。

    对艺术家来说，两种品质最为可贵，一是创造性的思维，二是诚实的劳动态度。在丁寺钟身上这两者都具备。因此，我们不仅看重他现有的创造成果，而且还满怀信心地期待着他的未来。

Amidst images

It is an enjoyment to read Sizhong`s watercolors. The enjoyment is derived from both the aesthetic feelings of formal values and from the philosophical meditation of the art per se. Sizhong is not amongst them. His works of art clearly embody the vivacity that originates from the nature.
All kinds of artistic creation cannot be isolated from elements of imagery, which represents artists` conscious Pursuit in exerting fully their powers of creation and imaginating. In such artistic creation, Sizhong is one of those who have attained great achievements.

徽州意象·老家--78×108cm---2009年

Sizhong`s later artistic exploration dose not necessarily mean that he belittles representational depiction and techniques. It is the internal experiences and impulses in his tasting of and reflecting on the nature that motivates him to make new exploration, Moreover, that which inspires his desire of creation is also attributable to his understanding of artistic modernity and his enchantment with the traditional brushwork.
Viewing his recent works, it is evident that there are no signs of affectation or artificiality therein. In conveying faithfully his personal esperiences and reflections,he harmoniously merges.The traditional Chinese brushwork techniques of  " Dian (dotting ) ", Ca (rubbing)", "Cun (brushing shade and texture with light  ink)", and " Ran (tingeing with monochrome ink or colors)"And the western methods of combining lines and forms.

徽州意象·三月风--49×109cm---2009年

His near-abstract Watercolors of imagery are differentiated from many western depictions, and exhibit sentiment and verve characterized of both western and Chinese styles. Some are emotional and intense but Steady, while others bold and unconstained but rigorous.Moreover, it is interesting to fing that both his early representational watercolors and his recent abstract works follow the same line of development, though they are conveyed with dissimilar artistic techniques. They seek after an unchanged spiritual realm, a poetic kingdom where his soul can be unified with the nature.
For all artists, two qualities are the most valuable:one is creative invention, and the other professional integrity. Sizhong possesses both. Therefore,there is good reason for us to value highly his current creation and expect as well with unwavering confidence his even brighter future.

    丁寺钟是在意象创造上有杰出表现的艺术家。他对意象水彩的新探索绝不意味他对写实具象表现方法的鄙弃，只是他在对自然、对现实体验和思考的过程中产生的内心感情、内心体验和内心冲动，驱使他做出新的尝试。此外，他新的创作欲望之所以产生，还由于他对艺术现代感的理解和他对传统水墨的迷恋。他将传统中国画点擦皴染的“笔墨”功力与西画的块面造型及构成法巧妙的结合在一起，他凭自己的技巧，更凭自己的悟性处理画面，语言似行云流水。

徽州意象·杏花村---70×108cm--2004年

    丁寺钟的画游走于抽象与具象之间，极具中国大写意的恢弘气势,水色交融，画面空间宽广。他近乎抽象的意象水彩画与西方的许多抽象画不同，有东方的、中国的情韵，有激越不失沉稳、犷放不失严谨的气度。他早期偏向写实的水彩画，与他近几年来较为抽象的创作，虽然表现手法迥异，但精神趋向却一脉相承：追求一种境界，那是他心灵与自然交融的一种诗的境界。
