作品賞析 Artwork Appreciation
藝術家胡笳生於上海，來臺後在新北市土城定居。早年向潘思同學畫，畫風接近英國傳統形式，曾經著有水彩技法專書，對70年代前後的臺灣畫壇影響深遠。早期寫生作品會特地留下底稿素描的線條，再以平塗、縫合等技法，快速的完成透明性極高的作品。後期以臺灣為主的作品中，則強調畫面結構的緊密性，並逐步融合平塗畫法和渲染技法，呈現乾濕並濟的效果。作品〈碧潭風光〉以碧潭吊橋橫跨畫面，橋下陰影從岸邊延伸至潭面，營造出空間感，橋面上、河岸邊、船隻上的人影則使畫作增添幾分生命力與趣味。
After coming to Taipei from Shanghai, the artist HU Jia made his home in Tucheng district, New Taipei City. During his early years his paintings were influenced by his contemporary, PAN Si-Tong, in a style of painting that was close to the traditional English style. The Taiwanese art scene of the 70s was profoundly influenced by Hu’s writings on watercolor techniques. In his earlier works he would leave behind his draft lines and paint over them, using stitching and other techniques to quickly complete highly transparent works. However his later works, which were primarily focused on Taiwan, emphasized tightly packed compositions that would progressively bring together flat washes and blending techniques to give off a dry and wet effect. His work, “Bitan Scene” is of the Bitan suspension bridge. The shadow of the bridge that extends down to the water’s surface builds a sense of space. The shapes of human figures that are dotted throughout the painting, under the bridge, at the riverside, and upon the boats add even more life and interest to this piece.
