Roger Eliot Fry (14 December 1866 – 9 September 1934) was an English artist and art critic, and a member of the Bloomsbury Group. Establishing his reputation as a scholar of the Old Masters, he became an advocate of more recent developments in French painting, to which he gave the name Post-Impressionism. He was the first figure to raise public awareness of modern art in Britain, and emphasized the formal properties of paintings over the "associated ideas" conjured in the viewer by their depicted content. He was described by the art historian Kenneth Clark as "incomparably the greatest influence on taste since Ruskin... In so far as taste can be changed by one man, it was changed by Roger Fry".[1]
Roger Fry's classic study of the art and life of Paul Cézanne, originally published in 1927, has been acclaimed as a paradigm critical work for its clarity, perception, and originality. Himself an artist, Fry rejected prevailing modes of criticism, believing that form, not subject matter, should be the primary expressive element. Cézanne's work came closest to Fry's ideal—it gave formal expression to all of nature.
This study established Fry as a critical "father," the first of his line to explicate the ideas of "vision and design" in an attempt to understand modern art. His critical analysis has in many respects never been surpassed. Fry endeavored both to show the essential development of the painter's style and to approach individual works directly; he wrote that he would detect "the profound difference between Cézanne's message and what we have made of it." The result is a book, couched in Fry's most lucid, penetrating language, which is of great technical value to the painter and student and which offers the layman an illuminating demonstration of the remarkable force of Cézanne's art.
张雷:读《塞尚及其画风的发展》 壹 坚硬 在塞尚身上,有着强烈的格列柯的影子。不妨首先引用弗莱对格列柯的感受:“(格列柯的画面)一方面是戏剧性,……另一方面则是形式的清晰、平衡。”(《视觉与设计》,131页)戏剧性为画面呈现了一种非常有张力的样态,而形式的清晰和...
評分一、本书有【原著】与【译作】双重身份 “理解塞尚的第一必读之作”,这一断言放到本书,有两层不同的意思(分别针对作者弗莱和译者沈语冰): 第一层,作者弗莱的原著在塞尚研究史中占了首要的位置:“弗莱1910年首先拈出“后印象主义”一词涵盖塞尚和其它一些画家,17年后出...
評分弗莱写得有情有理,体认深刻(“作为一个画家写此书”,p.179),很有启发,尤其在形式分析层面。沈译另有注疏,更有帮助,多参引另一位艺术史家夏皮罗的论述。 “对塞尚独特的心理状态和情感的描写,呈现了他对画家的强烈同情”(p.5)。塞尚的心理、性格与人格很大程度上是他...
評分 評分沈语冰 事实上,塞尚作品的地位和影响是无可争议的,他的绘画对艺术批评和艺术史的影响巨大,就像它们对其他艺术家的作品的影响一样。结果是,现在已经不可能在不受到人们关于塞尚绘画的形式、意义及其影响所讲的那些话的左右下来观看他的画了。尽管这些话是从不同的角...
