Step I学习理解
活动一:感知与注意
1. Talk about different types of paintings.
(1) Write the words “painting” and “masterpiece” or the blackboard. Ask students to talk about them. Explain that masterpiece means a work of art such as a film, or book that is made with great skill.
(2) Encourage students to learn about Post-Impressionism, Expressionism and Surrealism.
后印象主义是法国美术史上继印象主义之后的美术现象,也称“印象派之后”或“后期印象派”,该词由英国艺术评论家并曾任纽约大都会博物馆馆长福莱(Roger Fry,1866~1934)提出的。代表人物有塞尚(Paul Cezanne,1839~1906)、高更(Paul Gauguin,1848~1903)及凡·高(Vincent van Gogh,1853~1890)等。后印象主义从印象主义的用光与用色中获得了诸多启示,但与之有本质区别,它是第一个西方现代艺术流派。在19世纪末,不少受到印象主义鼓舞的艺术家开始反对印象派,不满足于刻板而片面地追求光和色,强调作品要抒发艺术家的情感,开始尝试色彩及形体的表现性。后印象派艺术家将绘画的形和色发挥到极致,几乎不顾及任何题材和内容,用主观感受去塑造客观现象。
表现主义是艺术家通过作品着重表现内心的情感,而忽视对描写对象形式的摹写,因此往往表现为对现实的扭曲和抽象化,这个做法尤其用来表达恐惧的情感,因此,主题欢快的表现主义作品很少见。一般来说表现主义仅限于20世纪的作品。
超现实主义是一种现代西方文艺流派,致力于探索人类的潜意识心理,主张突破合乎逻辑与实际的现实观,彻底放弃以逻辑和有序经验记忆为基础的现实形象,将现实观念与本能、潜意识及梦的经验相融合展现人类深层心理中的形象世界。超现实主义打破理性与意识的樊篱,追求原始冲动和意念的自由释放,将文艺创作视为纯个人的自发心理过程。作为一种思潮得到确立,是此派理论家布列东于1924年在巴黎发表第一篇“超现实主义宣言”以后。他认为,超现实主义就是要“化解向来存在于梦境与现实之间的冲突,而达于一种绝对的真实,一种超越的真实”。
2. Show some paintings to students and encourage them to guess its artist. Then talk about the paintings and the artists.
文森特·凡·高(Vincent van Gogh,1853~1890),荷兰后印象派画家,代表作有《星空》、自画像系列、向日葵系列等。凡·高出生于荷兰的一个新教牧师家庭,他早期画风写实,受到荷兰传统绘画及法国写实主义画派的影响。1886年,凡·高来到巴黎,结识印象派和新印象派画家,并接触到日本浮世绘的作品,视野的扩展使其画风巨变1888年,创作《阿尔的吊桥》;同年开始创作向日葵系列。此后,凡·高的疯病(有人记载是“癫痫病”)时常发作,但神志清醒时他仍然坚持作画。1889年创作《星空》,1890年7月,凡·高在精神错乱中开枪自杀,年仅37岁。
爱德华·蒙克(Edvard Munch,1863~1944),挪威表现主义画家、版画复制匠,现代表现主义绘画的先驱。爱德华·蒙克的绘画作品带有强烈的主观性和悲伤压抑的情调,其主要作品有《呐喊》《生命之舞》《卡尔约翰街的夜晚》。1944年1月23日,爱德华·蒙克于艾可利逝世。
勒内·马格利特(Rene Magritte, 1898~1967)是比利时超现实主义画家。早期从事墙纸设计和商业艺术,20世纪20年代与巴黎的超现实主义者交往甚密,并开始潜心作画,宗法超现实主义画风。早期作品包括《会飞的塑像》和《漂亮的俘虏》。成熟期的作品色彩更为鲜明,物体位置并列,常以海和天空为题材。代表作有《风云将变》和《比利牛斯山上的城堡》。
