关于画家赵弥先生的访谈简录
A Brief Abstract from the Interview with Mr. Zhao Mi - the famous painter from Chengdu
问：什么是艺术？（你对艺术有怎样的深刻理解？）
Q: What’s your understanding of art?
答：艺术是曼妙而不可言的，不确定性就是艺术。它不属于一个可以被完全定义化的范畴。但可以肯定地说，创造和发展艺术，就是我享受生命的过程。
A: Art is fantastic. Uncertainty is art. It cannot be exactly defined. But what’s definite is that I enjoy life in the process of creating art and developing art.
问：那请问艺术给你带来了什么？（艺术带给你什么样的启示？）
Q: So what enlightenments has art brought you?
答：一言难尽。艺术给了我很多的东西，它使你情感丰富，也使你情绪无常，但主要还是让我更能够沉浸在思考的快乐中。在我作画时，各种情绪都有，爱恨交融，甚至你会想到逃离，那是情感的极至。
A: It’s such a long story. Art has brought me a lot of things. It can make you emotional. But most importantly, I’m able to emerge myself in the happiness of thinking. When I’m painting, there’s a complex feeling of love and hatred. There were even moments that I thought of escaping, and that was the ultimate of my emotions.
问：你认为艺术是虚拟的吗？它与现实的世界之间存在着怎样的矛盾和统一？
Q: Do you think that art is artificial? What are the contradictions and reunifications between art and real life?
答：这是一个很好的提问。首先，我们与之共存的世界是一个纷繁复杂的世界，同时，作为艺术产生的母体，它却又需要艺术的多元化来使人们深刻地认知这个世界。人的生存环境，人的社会贡献，都会在一定的意识形态和物质形态上用艺术的方式表达出来。其次，我所创造的艺术存在着永远的矛盾。简单的艺术只是迎和了这个世界，是一种表象的、物化了的工具，没有矛盾。但在我的作品中，你往往能够看到很多与社会主流相悖的东西，而这些恰恰就是我赖以延续我艺术生命的矛盾点，如果有一天，欣赏我的画的人们在我的作品中看不到这些东西的时候，那就表明我应该再寻我的，新的矛盾点去发展我的艺术。
A: This is a very good question. First of all, we co-exist in a complicated world. At the same time, as the origin of art, the world needs the diversity of art to make people have a deeper understanding of the world. The environment we live in and people’s contributions to the society will be illustrated by art in a conceptual and materialistic way. Secondly, contradictions always exist in the art I’ve created. Simple art just meets the taste of the world. It’s a superficial and materialized tool without contradictions. But in my works, you can always find things going against the mainstream that eventually keep my artistic life going on. If people appreciating my works cannot find these things in my paintings one day, it means that I should start looking for a new contradictory point to develop my art.
