Introduction

Famous French sculptor. Born on November 12, 1840 in a poor Christian family. His

father is a police courier and his mother is a poor civilian woman. Rodin loved art since childhood, but was terrible at other subjects. With the support of his sister Marie, his disappointed father had to agree to send him to the Paris School of Arts and Crafts. His sister Marie relied on her own wages to provide him with room and board, so Rodin had a deep respect for his sister since he was a child. At the age of 14, he studied painting with Lecongde Boisbaudran, and later studied sculpture with Bayer. He also worked as an assistant to Carrier Belleuse and went to Brussels, Belgium, to create decorative sculptures for five years. . In 1875, he traveled to Italy and was deeply inspired by Michelangelo's works, thus establishing his realist creative techniques. His works such as "The Bronze Age", "The Thinker", "Hugo", "The Burghers of Calais" and "Balzac" all have new creations and have been criticized by the French academic school. The design of "Gates of Hell", which contains 186 sculptures, was not realized as planned due to official obstruction at the time, and only some works such as "The Thinker", "The Kiss" and "Eve" were completed. He is good at using rich and diverse painting techniques to create vivid and powerful artistic images. He made many sketches in his life, with a unique style, and his "Art Theory" has been handed down. Rodin's status in the history of European sculpture is just like the status of the poet Dante in Europe. Rodin and his two students Maillol and Boudel are known as the "three pillars" of European sculpture. To modern people, he is the last sculptor in the old era (classicism period) and the first sculptor in the new era (modernism period). One of his feet remains in the courtyard of classicism, but the other foot has already crossed the threshold of modernism.

It can be said that Rodin used his mature and powerful hands that were trained during the classicism period and his creative spirit that was not bound by tradition to open the door to modern sculpture for the new era; when young artists rushed in and ran forward, By then, he was already in his old age and could no longer walk. His creations had a great influence on the development of modern European sculpture. Auguste Rodin

Rodin’s life was a life of being attacked and ridiculed, but also understood and supported by others. But he always faced it all correctly with a great personality. Rodin climbed all his life and finally reached another peak after Michelangelo. Rodin firmly believed: "Art is emotion." All of his works bear witness to this concept and reveal the richness of human emotions. Rodin preferred tragic themes and was good at discovering strength and beauty from devastation, which gave his art a broad and profound character. He created a new era and created a new artistic approach. The ideological and spiritual charm reflected in his works will always bring people profound beauty and inspire people to think endlessly. Appears in lesson 26 of the second volume of the fourth grade of primary school Chinese.

Life

The school of arts and crafts that Rodin entered was founded in 1765 by Bachelier, a painter favored by Madame de Pompadour. , where students learn the art of binding and drafting. Here he met the enlightenment teacher Horace Lecoq, whom he admired throughout his life. Lecoq was an ordinary art teacher, but he encouraged Rodin from the beginning to be true to his true artistic feelings rather than to follow academic dogma. Perhaps it was this teaching that influenced Rodin's life. During this period, he often went to the Louvre to copy famous paintings by masters. Unable to afford oil paints, Rodin enrolled in a sculpture class and fell in love with sculpture. Lecoq also introduced him to study with Barye (1796-1875), a famous French animal sculptor at that time, so that he received good basic training. After three years of hard and diligent study, Rodin was confident and prepared to apply for the école des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Lecoq introduced Rodin to Hippolyte Maindron (1801-1884), a famous sculptor at the time, and asked him to sign Rodin's application for admission as a recommender, but this was of no use and Rodin was unsuccessful. Still lost the next year. In the third year, an old host simply wrote next to Rodin's name: "I have no talent in this life. It is a waste to continue to apply for the exam." In this way, the future European sculpture master was permanently rejected by the Paris Academy of Fine Arts. outside. This was a heavy blow to the young Rodin, who longed to become a sculptor. Bigger blows came one after another. Rodin's beloved sister Marie entered a convent because of a broken love. Two years later, her weak spirit and body could not bear the frustrated and lonely life, and she died of illness. Rodin's spirit completely collapsed under this double blow. He resolutely followed his sister's path and became a monk. But Rodin's strong body provided him with endless desires, and the desire to create ignited an unstoppable flame in the heart of an artist, causing Rodin, who was equally devout to God and art, to fall into inner conflict and pain. The kind and wise abbot Emaar saw Rodin's thoughts from his repressed expression. He created conditions that gave Rodin the opportunity to paint and sculpt. When he saw that Rodin was really talented, he persuaded Rodin to return to secular life and continue his sculpture career to "use art to serve God." This encouraged Rodin. With a soothed and grateful heart, Rodin made a statue for Dean Emaar in the monastery. This statue showed that at the age of 23, Rodin already had the insight, skills and strength to be a sculptor. Portrait of Rodin

Rodin returned to Lecoq, and with his help and support, he began a career of self-study while working. Unable to afford a model, he asked a snub-nosed beggar named Bibi to be his model. The ugliness of the beggar made Rodin see the sorrow and desolation common to human beings on his worn face. At the same time, he also thought of Michelangelo, the master sculptor who worked hard and lonely all his life. Therefore, in Rodin's eyes, the beauty and ugliness of life and the beauty and ugliness of art have different meanings. When he creates, he pays attention to the expression of light on the surface of the work, and incorporates the ideological content to be displayed into the work, making sculpture art a powerful language. The content that people feel mentally far exceeds the visual experience. . This artistic idea was what the master Michelangelo pursued diligently in his later years. It was first maturely displayed in Rodin's "Man with a Flat Nose" after more than three hundred years, and continued throughout his life, becoming their soul and charm. source of.

In fact, Rodin's later great achievements were more due to his diligence and studiousness. He got up before dawn every day, first went to an amateur painter's house to draw sketches of real objects for several hours, and then hurried to school. After coming back from school in the evening, I have to go to the museum. At that time, there was a class dedicated to human body painting in the museum. He would paint there for two hours. In addition, he also takes time to go to libraries and museums to observe and study ancient sculptures. Rodin was racing against time to study and work. He said: "In order to keep my work from stopping, even for a second, I have to work 14 hours a day." Rodin was very good at learning from others. One day, he was working on a When I carve plants on the pillars, I am very satisfied with the flowers and stems, but the leaves are always unsatisfactory when I look at them from left to right. After carving and repairing, they are always unsatisfactory. At this time, a craftsman named Constance was watching and couldn't help but said: "Rodan, don't always use one method to carve. This way the leaves will look flat and not vivid. ... You can make the tips of the leaves protrude." You're right, it will look full of charm." Rodin was very happy after hearing this. He was greatly inspired and did what Constance said. Sure enough, the leaves of the plant became flexible and vivid. The Thinker

Rodin was not only a master sculptor, but also a great teacher. His students or assistants, even those with whom he only had contacts, were all deeply influenced by Rodin in their art. But as a teacher, Rodin never restricted his students in terms of artistic views, so his students could mature into their own unique styles and stand out. What they studied was Rodin's creative spirit, so many of them were outstanding, and some would become as famous as their teachers in the future. Rodin's life was a life of being attacked and ridiculed by others, but also understood and supported by others. But he always faced it all correctly with a great personality. Rodin climbed all his life and finally reached another peak after Michelangelo. Rodin firmly believed: "Art is emotion." All of his works bear witness to this concept and reveal profoundly the richness of human emotions. In this regard, Rodin is the most outstanding Romantic sculpture master. However, his greatness also lies in his profound thoughts: he does not have the shortcomings that are easy to see in the romantics, such as superficial enthusiasm, empty exaggeration, and false connotations. He prefers tragic themes and is good at discovering strength and beauty from devastation. This gives his art a broad and profound character, which is both touching and inspiring, allowing us to wander in the waves of the soul, the mysteries of life, the mysteries of the universe, and the magic of creation. From this point of view, Rodin transcended romanticism, transcended sects, transcended eras and regions, and became a bright star in the historical galaxy. He sympathized with the working people at the bottom, loved his motherland, and devoted his life to the persistent pursuit of art and the hard thinking of the various pains in life. He created a new era and created a new artistic technique. The ideological and spiritual charm reflected in his works will always bring people profound beauty and inspire people to think endlessly. Rodin's Works

Rodin's Theory of Art In the eyes of an artist, everything is beautiful, because his sharp eye sees the core of all living things; if he can discern his character, he can penetrate the shape and touch it. Its inherent "truth". This "truth" is also "beauty". - Rodin The fountain of life surges from the heart; the flower of life blooms from the inside out. Similarly, in beautiful sculptures, there is often a strong inner tremor lurking. This is the secret of ancient art. - Rodin The virtues of an artist are only wisdom, concentration, sincerity and will. - Rodin The source of art lies in the inner truth. Your shape and color must convey emotions. - Rodin The most important thing is feelings, love and hate, hope, oh, life. To be an artist, you must start with people. - Rodin Evil is dryness. ——Rodin It’s not that there is no beauty in life, but the lack of eyes to discover beauty. ——Rodin "Rodin's Theory of Art" is a scientific summary of the history of European sculpture, and it is also a concise summary of personal experience. It is run through Rodin's reverence for his predecessors, his insight into masterpieces, his joy in creation, and his deep thoughts and moments. introspection. When Mr. Fu Lei was teaching at the Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, he translated this book as "Aesthetics Lecture Notes" and distributed it to his students. The purpose was to gain a precise understanding and discussion of the form and spirit of masterpieces of art before touching on pure aesthetics. The re-edited color illustrated book closely follows the master's talk, integrating more than 200 masterpieces of art into the conversation, which is more conducive to the appreciation of the masterpieces and the understanding of the masterpieces.

Here is only a brief introduction to the book. Awen recommends that you buy a copy, because you can put it on the bedside and read it slowly, and you can also smell the fragrance of the book. There are many beautiful pictures in it, and the paper quality of the pages is also very good. In addition, in order not to damage the original book, Awen was reluctant to scan it, because when scanning the picture, the book had to be flattened, which could easily damage the book...

Chronology

1900 Olympics Guste Rodin holds an exhibition of his work in Paris, establishing his reputation as a sculptor. His main contribution lies in restoring Western sculpture's understanding of human beings and its representation of the spiritual world. He is considered the greatest portrait sculptor in the history of sculpture. In 1864, Rodin studied sculpture with the famous animal sculptor Louis Bayer. Due to his hard work, he made rapid progress. Later, he went to the Louvre, known as the "Little Academy of Fine Arts," to study painting. The owner of the studio was Albert Ernest Gallier-Belles, a famous decorative engraver during the Second Empire. After a period of study, Rodin already had the conditions to become an excellent sculptor. Before the age of 35, Rodin's personal style had not yet been determined. In 1875, Rodin visited Italy and admired the great Michelangelo, which had a huge influence on his future creations. In 1878, Rodin's exhibition "The Bronze Age" aroused a lot of discussion. Many people did not admit that it was a work of art because it was too realistic, saying that it was based on a real person. This incident shocked Rodin greatly and made him think about the performance of his works. He felt that extreme similarity meant that there was nothing new and was not conducive to the expression of deep thoughts and feelings. Therefore, Rodin's later works are vivid and full of inner spiritual atmosphere. His masterpiece "Gates of Hell" consists of 186 figures and lasted 37 years. It was not completed until his death. The "Thinker" and "Kiss" in it were enlarged and independently became a world-renowned masterpiece. Rodin's other major works include: "The Gates of Hell" (1880-1917), "Adam" (1880), "Eve" (1881), "The Burghers of Calais" (1884-1886), "The Kiss" (1886), "Balzac" (1897), "Hugo" (1897). On November 17, 1917, the French sculptor Rodin, the master of traditional European sculpture art for more than two thousand years and the creator of new sculpture art in the 20th century, passed away.

Luo Dan (1904.9-1983.3.27), formerly known as Guiqiu, with the courtesy name Zhihua and the nickname Huiyin Jushi, was born in Liancheng County, Fujian Province people. I have loved calligraphy and painting since I was a child. He came to Xiamen in 1930 and founded Fengxing Printing Press. During this period, he was active in Singapore. In 1935, he returned to China and settled in Xiamen, where he returned to the printing industry. He worked hard at calligraphy and learned from the strengths of others, and finally formed a unique calligraphy style "Luo Dan style". In 1951, he founded Luchao Art School with Yang Xialin and others. He once served as a director of the Chinese Calligraphers Association, consultant of the Xiamen Federation of Literary and Art Circles, honorary consultant of the Xiamen Calligraphers Association, member of the first to fifth sessions of the Xiamen CPPCC, and secretary-general of the Xiamen Federation of Industry and Commerce. There are works such as "Rodin's Calligraphy Art". Luo Dan was born in poverty and only attended private school for three years and high school for one year. He dropped out of school due to family poverty. At the age of fourteen, he began to work as an apprentice and calligrapher in Longyan and Zhangzhou areas. However, he loved calligraphy and studied calligraphy books diligently in his spare time. He started with block script and seal script, and used it in regular script, running script and cursive script in Jin and Tang Dynasties. He especially benefited from Yan Zhenqing's "Magu Immortal Altar", "Ode to the Portrait of Mr. Dongfang", "Poems of General Fei", etc., which are magnificent, rich, magnificent and generous. Copying the Han Dynasty's "Zhang Qian", "Heng Fang", "Cao Quan" and "Huashan", we can see its majesty, strength and beauty, and love the "Zhang Menglong" and other steles, so we can see its ancient and majestic character. Mr. Luo Dan is not only good at writing large characters, but he is also extremely precise in small regular script. He writes with deep and vigorous force, showing the meaning of flying in the solemnity, and his expression is elegant. Regular script gives people the impression of being broad and solid, graceful and majestic, and majestic. Rodin's calligraphy should be said to be the most representative official script work of his level. From this recording of eight official script poems of Du Fu's Qiuxing poems, we can get a glimpse of the characteristics of Rodin's calligraphy. In the use of the brush, he mainly moves the center, reverses and astringently advances, so he can Entering the wood three points, it is calm and joyful, and it also uses the side attack to contain Pan Yu, so it can have ups and downs and is colorful. Powerful and broad, vigorous and simple, graceful in the virility, strange in the dignified, profound skills and strong personality, full of grassy charm and intriguing, this is the uniqueness of Rodin's calligraphy, which is worth chewing.
