2023-07-07Introduction: Yang Shusen is an honest painter with profound traditional literacy and modern innovative spirit. He always believes that the study of the world's best painting classics is a reliable prerequisite for promoting the development of contemporary art works, and as an artist, he should look back from time to time in the process of creating his own paintings. On the expressive level, painters should emphasize on the spontaneity of expressing the passion of the human heart, such as the works of masters like Velasquez, Rembrandt, Serov, Baba, etc., which everywhere present humanity and spontaneity; on the spiritual level, painters should emphasize on the discovery of the spiritual values that are forgotten by most young people and hidden in the contemporary world. On the spiritual level, painters should pay attention to discovering the spiritual values that have been forgotten by most young people and hidden in the contemporary world. On the basis of realism, the unimpeded spirituality and spontaneity should be the direction of human painting, and should be the dream diligently pursued by all artists with high aspirations, no matter whether they are from the East or the West.
Yang Shusen believes that painting from figurative to abstract directly presents an infinite number of artistic styles and an infinite development of future trends. The creation of painting is a need, an own need, an inner need, and the important thing is to obtain a new conception, and thus an original"Experience". People need to breathe, and so does painting. The contact between body and mind and the picture allows the breath to flow through the picture.

Life is like a white horse passing by, like a summer flower blooming brilliantly but briefly. In the vast and boundless universe, human beings are so small and worthless, but this never affects the human curiosity and exploration of the world, human beings create everything, is to try to unravel the mysterious veil of the universe. Because of the love of the world to give us life, some people love to sing the world, and dedicate their lives to music; because of the love of the world to give us passion, some people traveled thousands of mountains and rivers, just to see the Creator created by the magnificent scenery of the ghostly work of God. Because of the world's rich and colorful, so the world of scientists, engineers, writers, and of course, there is no shortage of painters to portray the beauty of the world!......
Painter Yang Shusen, with his light and graceful brush, sketches out a graceful and colorful painting, interprets his understanding of the universe, expresses his pursuit of life, and eulogizes his love of life. In the early summer of June, a reporter from Asia News Weekly had an interview with Yang Shusen, a famous Chinese painter.
Reporter: At the beginning of life, we are all weak and in need of protection. Even though they have grown up and have a mature appearance, it is still difficult to resist a fragile heart, which reflects the fragility and helplessness of human nature in the context of today's society and history. This is the contradictory nature of human beings as living organisms, and why so many painters and sculptors take life as the theme of their creations. In this non-semantic space, it is a metaphor for the artist's personal concern for the survival of human beings. As a qualified oil painter, in your works "Universe" and "Heaven and Earth", you pay great attention to highlighting human nature and spontaneity, emphasizing on digging out the spiritual value that most young people have forgotten and hidden in the contemporary world, and describing a vivid image of the cosmic world for us with your agile brush. How do you interpret the concept of universe in your works?
Yang Shusen: In ancient times, people's understanding of the structure of the universe was in a very naive state, and they usually made naive speculations about the structure of the universe according to their living environment.
During the Western Zhou period, the early Gaitian theory proposed by the people living on the land of Huaxia held that the vault of heaven was like a pot, inverted on the flat earth; it was later developed into the late Gaitian theory, which held that the earth's shape was also arch-shaped. B.C.7century, the Babylonians believed that both the heavens and the earth were arched, with the earth surrounded by oceans and mountains in its center. The ancient Egyptians imagined the universe as a large box with the sky as the lid and the earth as the bottom, with the Nile River in the center of the earth.
Since ancient times, mankind's exploration of the universe has never stopped. I am not a researcher of natural science, but I have been trying to interpret an abstract universe with the paintbrush in my hand, which I and most people agree. In my two paintings "Universe" and "Heaven and Earth", the deep black background constructs a vast and infinite universe.The orientation space of "Yu". The extremely dynamic dots express the concept of "Zeus" time. Space and time constructed in the "universe", all the "points" can be a certain moment in a certain place of a certain event: can also be a person, a phenomenon, a birth, a destruction ... ...In short, thousands of things exist in the infinite universe are just a small dust "point" and a fleeting momentary trajectory. The "heaven and earth" is the stage of the universe, and all things in time will be the protagonist centering on the "self", and at the same time, they are also the hurried "passers-by" on the "stage" who are too late for the curtain call. "Passers-by".
Reporter: In your works, we seldom see the scene of life in full bloom. Your skillful technique and unique vision realize things that seem to be depressing but contain vitality, but some people seem to have doubts about the theme of life in your works?
Yang Shusen: There are many reveries about the origin of life, and the various tributes to life are a timeless theme in literature and other artistic disciplines and fields.
The diversity of life makes up our colorful world. In my opinion, life itself is the carrier of this spirit or thought. I have no intention of pursuing the study of life in the natural disciplines, but I prefer to feel the spiritual inspiration and thought enlightenment brought by any kind of living organism. Quotations from the German poet Shelley"Winter is coming, can spring be far away", in the works that are extremely tense in both color and composition, what is completely deciphered is the spirit of resistance to nature and death. This is a kind of image praise and abstract eulogy to the dignity and power of life. When an artist's whole life emotion, form structure, expression language into one, when art has become the real destination of his life, his works naturally can not be interpreted by the traditional art value, judgment standards. Artistic ideals and artistic pursuits are centered around the connotation of life, the meaning of life and its form, the sense of beauty, which also established his identity as a painter who aims at the meaning of life and eternal themes as the purity of form and language, and became a painter who knocks at the deeper significance of "human being" and seeks to solve the problem of interpretation, and people have been impressed by his wisdom and ability to include his works in their collections. People have been impressed by his wisdom and ability, and have included him in their vision, discussing the short and long term.
The idea of knowledge in Western culture is based on the idea of difference, on taking a certain position from the outside to observe something and make it other. Science tells us that the world exists in three ways: macroscopic, microscopic and cosmic. In the abstract world, whether it is the cosmic world of the cosmos, the microscopic world of the microscope, or the macrocosm, which is most commonly seen with the naked eye, the artist's work is full of individuality. One of the most important activities of artists whose work lies somewhere between art and science is to try to align the materials of representation with the analytical, communicative techniques offered by modern science and modern art. Thus the cognitive activity induced by painting is the production of meaning rather than the perception of meaning. In contrast to the field of literature, which exhibits the revelation of structure, one sees in painting a more vivid, obvious, and direct display.
Reporter: What kind of work do you think touches people the most?
YOUNG SHUSON: In terms of painting."Sense of form" mainly refers to the performance or presentation of the art medium in the aesthetic space; "formal beauty" mainly refers to the aesthetic value that the modeling composition provides to the visual perception. The "formal beauty" of painting does not lie in the reflection of objective natural objects, but also in the reflection of subjective conception of the intention, which is why a few meaningless black, white and grey colors or lines of the composition of the picture can also be pleasing to the eye. Kandinsky in the "spirit of art" that the color has its own character and features; white symbolizes the nothingness before the birth, as if the glacier season before the birth of life; black means death, is the representative of the silence of life. Behind the appearance of color lies the hidden expression of the artist's heart. To sum up, the theme, the color, the form, the artist through the inherent nature of the painting will be personal perception of life embodied in the profound connotation of the work, which is the work of touching.
Reporter: You have been associated with oil painting all your life, what is the significance of oil painting to you?
Yang Shusen: I have always loved oil painting. When I am creating, I think about what kind of life I want. The value of a person does not lie in the profession he is engaged in, but in the happiness and social recognition he gets from it, thus realizing the value of his own life. Whenever I concentrate on painting, what I paint is not just a painting, but a mood and a life journey. I devote all my energy to painting, and make friends with my paintings, so that we can communicate with each other and learn from each other. The oil paintings have recorded the bits and pieces that have touched me. There are so many memories in the mottled past and the lost years. Memories have many stories that we can never tell in words. The stories carried on the stranded ship are the years we can't decipher. All of this and the heart of that sentimental sea eventually became a story, only with the painting to frame that distant memory.
In Yang Shusen's paintings, the reporter sees that the scenery reveals the living truth of perspective, the mountains and rocks show the heavy texture and sense of quantity, and the characters' faces show the charm, which makes the picture emphasize the strong visual tension. In turn, this makes his oil paintings sublimated again and again in the mixing of Chinese and Western techniques. Not only that, he also draws from Su Dong Po"Taste Mochizuki's poetry, poetry in the painting; view Mochizuki's painting, painting has poetry" in the realization, concluded that if there is no poetic rhythm in the oil painting, it will be a boring camping, and there is no any vivid artistic charm. Therefore, every piece of his creation is flowing with a stream of poetic flavor. Countless summers and springs and autumns have passed by in the painting, and he always quietly pursues the meaning of life in the far-reaching and tranquil painting environment - he wants to fix the lack of noisy and tense, killing and competing in today's era with his paintbrush, so that the world can find the lost pleasure in the noise and annoyance. As a result, his works continue to mellow and soar in this transcendent imagery.
? Order?Yang Shusen has always pursued his dream of painting. He is a calm and respectful person, indifferent and open-minded in the world. All around the near and far where the name of those who seek paintings, although he is busy and tired but always take time for it, and ask others to say the real feeling of his work,. He said: he wants to use the paintbrush in his hand to continuously create works of nature's leisure and harmony, so as to give the world the enjoyment of beauty, and to give the world the desire for the ideal world.
