论戴熙的《习苦斋题画》

戴熙论画,以闲、静、淡、远的风格为“四美”,又进而以识、学、才“三长”兼备,才得画道之成,他提倡“形为心役”的创作,认为造化重于笔墨。他认为文人画应是“名心尽净”、“游戏人间”,故提倡“趣”、“灵和”、“天真”。在学古的择向中,戴熙窥元而追宋,有“振起北宋”之志。他对“四季山水”说有自己独到的体会,对风格学有独到的美学诠释。

On Dai Xi's Theory of Painting

In Dai Xi's opinion,the way to painting lies in the combination of "four beauties"and "three prerequisites" indifference and profundity;experience, knowledge and aptitude) He advocated that in artistic creation, form depends on contents and that is was more important to imitate nature than to learn how to master painting skills. He maintained that paintings by intellectuals should be free of any trace of desire for fame and gain and should be free of any bondage both in mind and in body. Therefore he spoke highly of taste, inspiration, mi ldness and innocence. Focusing his learning on styles and effects of the painters of the Yuan and the Song dynasties,Dai Xi tried his best to restore the tradition of the Northern-Song Dynasty. With his distinctive experience of "natural scenery (mountains and waters)are four seasons",he had a way of his own in aesthetic interpretation of stylistics.
