mentioned in the passage.Group work:《格尔尼卡》毕加索 格尔尼卡是西班牙北部巴斯克族人的城镇。1937年被纳粹“神鹰军团”的轰炸机炸成一片废墟,死亡了数千名 无辜的老百姓。毕加索被法西斯暴行所激怒,毅然画了这幅巨作,以表示强烈的抗议。
画面以站立仰首的牛和嘶吼 的马为构图中心。画家把具象的手法与立体主义的手法相结合,并借助几何线的组合,使作品获得严密的内在结构 紧密联系的形式,以激动人心的形象艺术语言,控诉了法西斯战争惨无人道的暴行.?这幅《格尔尼卡》到底表现了什么呢?里面没有飞机、炸弹、坦克、枪炮,只有牛、马、女人、灯……等物体,然而它的意义已经超越了表象。毕加索把象征性的战争悲剧投入蓝色调中,那浅青、浅灰在黑色调的对照中表现正义的极点,它聚集了残暴、痛苦、绝望、恐怖的全部意义。这木然屹立的公牛、濒死嘶鸣的马、仰天狂叫的求救者、断臂倒地的士兵、抱着死婴号啕大哭的母亲、吓得发呆的见证人……《星空》中呈现两种线条风格,一是弯曲的长线,二是破碎的短线。二者交互运用,使画面呈现出眩目的奇幻景象。在构图上,骚动的天空与平静的村落形成对比。柏树则与横向的山脉、天空达成视觉上的平衡。全画的色调呈蓝绿色,画家用充满运动感的、连续不断的、波浪般急速流动的笔触表现星云和树木;在他的笔下,星云和树木像一团正在炽热燃烧的火球,正在奋发向上,具有极强的表现力,给人留下深刻的印象。星光下沸腾的小山边上静卧着一个小村落。结构上带给我们一种与骚动相制衡的宁静。画的左边有大块暗色结构,它表现了尺寸大小与孤立的完美一致。与画里的其它物体的尺寸相比,该结构是宏伟的。用旋涡式的曲线描述汹涌、动荡的天空,带给此画一种深刻的意境.Van Gogh。Where can you see the great works?
