held a large-scale digital art exhibition in This is the first time in our province. This exhibition brings cutting-edge digital art into the public eye. At present, digital technology has experienced unprecedented development and has been integrated into all aspects of economy, culture and our daily life. In recent years, a new trend of digitalization has appeared in the field of art. So, what new trends will emerge in the collision of art and technology? How can digital art and traditional art coexist? At the seminar "Visual Liaoning - Digital Art Exhibition" sponsored by the Academy of Fine Arts) and Luxun Academy of Fine Arts, experts focused on the impact of digital technology on art creation and art education, the relationship between digital art creation and digital art criticism, and the popularization of art. In-depth discussions were conducted on topics such as life and the future development trend of art. The just-concluded "Visual Liaoning - Digital Art Exhibition" by
is a concentrated demonstration of the application of digital technology in the field of art in our province. The exhibition is sponsored by Liaoning Provincial Culture Group, Luxun Academy of Fine Arts, and Provincial Artists Association, and undertaken by Liaoning Art Museum. It is the first time in our province to hold such a large-scale digital art exhibition, and it is rare in the whole country. This exhibition brings cutting-edge digital art into the public eye, bringing an immersive artistic sensory experience built by digital technology and a rethinking of technology. Because of the high quality of the exhibition, which has attracted wide attention, a seminar on "Visual Liaoning - Digital Art Exhibition" was held before the end of the exhibition.
digital art is an art form or artistic process with certain independent aesthetic value created or presented using digital technology. Digital art is an art category, including digital installation art, digital sculpture art, digital space art, digital painting art, etc.
Has digital technology changed our perception of traditional painting? Zhang Shijun, director of the first teaching and research section of the Printmaking Department, School of Painting, Luxun Academy of Fine Arts, said that in traditional painting, people need painting cases, painting paper, brush and ink, etc. for color spotting, while digital art Creation requires only a computer installed with various drawing software and retouching tools. The monitor replaces the drawing paper and the mouse replaces the brush. The artist can choose different output methods according to the desired artistic effect to form different visual language presentations. .
In the field of artistic creation, digital technology not only brings innovations in creative media and means, but also brings new thinking to creative ideas. At the
seminar, Yang Bo, Dean of the School of Humanities of Luxun Academy of Fine Arts, said that after watching this exhibition, the first question that comes to mind is that digital art has new enlightenment on the essence of art in today's academic discourse. As we all know, computer painting has appeared since the 1960s. Today, computers can participate in the field of clothing design, and also in the fields of music, literature, dance and other arts. This shows that in the current art ecology, digital art is already an inevitable component. Then, if we understand digital art as a new art style, it is not a new thing in terms of development time, but it will still cause some new thinking-how to view digital art in our art sector, it shapes us Whether there are new ways of connecting between the artistic environment and our perception, etc. Second, how big is the role of digital technology in artistic innovation? The direction of artistic innovation should be inward, and digital technology is only an auxiliary role.
Whether traditional painting or digital painting, the thought to be expressed in the work and the creative meaning behind the work are the most valuable qualities of art painting. Digital painting must have vitality, stand upright, and go far. The content of art is far more important than the content of technology.is the core competitiveness.
Professor Wu Yujie from the School of Literature, Liaoning University said that digital art is a kind of fusion art. When we appreciate digital art and talk about digital art, it actually provides us with a different aesthetic space than before. Technology serves art, but technology itself should become a concept that is deposited in the depths of the creative subject's thinking. Only then can the art created in this way truly become digital art. Digital technology provides infinite and broad space for art, and digital art requires that the creative subject can form the self-consciousness of digital art, which is very important. Another point is that digital art has changed the traditional way of appreciating exhibitions. This completely immersive appreciation is actually in a dream.
Li Na, associate professor of at Shenyang Conservatory of Music, said that when digital technology is integrated into art, it opens up the boundaries of art and subverts the creative space and creative concept. After the new technology is applied to art, the form itself becomes the content, bringing infinite possibilities to artistic creation. How much innovation digital technology has on the essence of art should be reflected in creativity. How to express the same subject in different ways, creativity plays a very important role in it.
digital technology has brought revolutionary changes to the field of art, and has a great effect on art development, talent training, and art education. A major feature of
digital painting is its pluralism, which makes its dissemination and collection more convenient. But it is precisely because of the infinite reproducibility of digital painting that its scarcity and authority cannot be guaranteed. But digital painting is the same as traditional printmaking , although it can be copied infinitely, but it is also controllable. That is, like prints, using numbers to control the quantity, preventing the use of pure technical means for batch and streamlined production.
digital technology brings unprecedented changes to the field of art similar to the revolutionary changes that printing technology brought to printmaking. Xu Baozhong, dean of the School of Painting Art at Luxun Academy of Fine Arts, said that from the perspective of painting art practice, taking printmaking as an example, whether it is Chinese engraving technology, or Western copperplate prints, lithographs, are closely related to the development of printing technology. Printing technology provides usable conditions for printmaking, and printing is related to social communication. At present, digital technology has been widely used in the field of culture and art, but how technology serves art and how technology serves the cultivation of artistic talents is the core content we need to think about. The energy brought by digital technology to art is far greater than the energy brought by traditional printing technology to printmaking art. Traditional printing technology emphasizes the skills and abilities at hand, such as realistic and non-realistic abilities, while digital technology brings hands-on ability, thinking The capabilities of the technology itself and the technical capabilities provided by the technology itself are combined into one.
digital technology has brought revolutionary changes to the field of art, and has played a great role in the development of art, talent training and art education in colleges and universities.
In 2018, the International Academy of Printmaking Union officially recognized "digital printmaking" as one of the printmaking categories, renaming "digital printmaking". Xu Baozhong said, "digital printmaking" is of great significance after being recognized as a printmaking type, because "digital printmaking" has an artistic identity, so we have more basis for teaching, displaying and disseminating.
Liu Hongshu, associate professor of at Liaoning University, said that the definition of the identity of digital printmaking, the identity of digital art, and then the popularization of art requires a period of running-in, as well as consensus and attempts in the art world. From the perspective of traditional art concepts, the proposal of the big concept of digital art and this exhibition have given people a subversive understanding of "pure shelf" art. The change in artistic concept and thinking is mainly reflected in a sense of identity, especially the recognition of the new field in the art world that has never been achieved before. As the first digital art exhibition in Liaoning Province, this exhibition is unimaginable in the past, and it is a good opportunity for Liaoning art to go global. This kind of innovation is an excellent opportunity for Liaoning art to overtake or be in line with international standards.
From painting to digital painting, from sculpture to digital sculpture, from photography to digital imaging, from installation to digital space, from new media, network art to virtual reality, digital technology has been applied to many disciplines in the teaching, research and creation of Luxun Academy of Fine Arts . Zhang Shijun said that from the perspective of college teaching, digital painting needs a better room for growth. Digital painting should be a relatively large scope, which involves the painting forms and painting forms seen in this exhibition, and the future development space will be very large.
Zhang, Director of the Experimental Art Department of Lu Xun Academy of Fine ArtsDan said that contemporary art is firstly the art that combines with the most cutting-edge and advanced technology, and the second is the art that combines the most cutting-edge philosophical aesthetics and way of thinking, as well as the art of discovering and applying cutting-edge materials. From the perspective of disciplinary development, the integration of art and technology can be seen in design and fine arts, and it can be seen that the country attaches great importance to the development of digital art. A few days ago, the Digital Art and Blockchain Laboratory was established, with the eight major art academies as the main nodes, and the other art schools as sub-nodes, the purpose is to connect the digital art of the national art schools into a network and form a communication platform. Digital art can penetrate into society, for example, art transforms the countryside, and the holding of various art festivals has become a trend internationally.
How does digital art draw strength and resources from traditional culture, and make digital art a digital art with national characteristics and Chinese temperament? No matter how the times develop and how technology is innovated, ideas are the real and eternal value of art. The art form of digital technology will not replace traditional art, and the two will become a state of fusion and symbiosis. This is the view agreed by the experts at the seminar.
From the perspective of art history, the core of art is not only the expression of artistic language and form, but also the presentation of ideas.
digital art not only plays an active role in cultural promotion, but also injects new vitality into traditional culture. How does digital art draw nourishment from traditional culture, and how can it give new vitality to traditional culture? Liu Wei, a professor at Liaoning University, said that we can draw visual and auditory elements from traditional Chinese culture, such as traditional Chinese painting, opera and The expressions and techniques of folk art, including shadow puppets, New Year pictures, classical literature, poetry and songs, operas, Peking opera, and folk music, are used in the creation of digital art. Subject matter can be extracted from traditional Chinese culture, historical allusions, fables, historical figures, historical relics, etc. can be used for reference in digital art creation. For example, Zhang Shijun's "Zi Jian·Three Hundred Statues", Li Qiushi's "Cultural Interpretation", Song Wei's "Cultural State·Book Series Group Paintings", Qi Yanling's "LOVE", He Yongyi's "All Things and Living Beings" exhibited. , Xu Yibo's mechanical dynamic installation work "One", etc.
Wu Yujie said, how can digital art draw strength and resources from traditional culture, how to express Chinese traditional culture in digital art, and make digital art a digital art with national characteristics and Chinese temperament, it will be possible in the future. The world of digital art has its place.
Zhang Shouzhi, associate professor of Liaoning University, said that the country attaches great importance to digital construction. From this perspective, combined with our daily digital art practice, there are two major ideas. One is cross-border integration. Chinese opera costumes and characters' masks have been turned into digital art, which has had a wide international impact. This is the best case of cross-border integration. This kind of time-space reconstruction and fixed-frame presentation can actually be combined in the practice of artistic creation. Promoting the innovative development and creative transformation of Chinese traditional culture can bring our traditional Chinese culture combined with digital art to the public, and feel the charm of traditional culture and the integration of technology. In addition, it is possible to "integrate culture and tourism". A professor of from the Central Academy of Drama has just won a world-class award. He combined the space design of digital art with the traditional Taoist concept. The charm of Chinese traditional culture was released at once.
Yang Bo said that the popularization of art. Today we use digital art to actually give it wings. Art planning and art acceptance have become very strict today, and there are more possibilities. The problem is that we How can the artist better practice this kind of art, and how does the art itself get out of the ivory tower? The core of
's combination of art and technology is aesthetics. Times endow them with different connotations, and the emergence of new tools also brings corresponding new production methods and aesthetic standards. At the
seminar, Wu Yujie raised the issue of synchronization between digital art creation and digital art criticism. She said that digital art has presented us with a visual feast, so where is our digital art criticism? Whether it can now be synchronized with digital art creation is actually a very urgent matter. How to Make Digital Art Criticism Real CriticismIf the creation of word art is coordinated and works synchronously, then our digital art will go further.
