步行者

评论&访谈正文

步行者往往是有想法的人。

用脚走路，节拍古老。眼前社会运转匆忙，步行显得静态。

沿318国道，画家张义文走在藏区的公路上。远离大都市，行走在蓝天白云之下，可视野里躲不过的，还是拆拆建建……

步行，像一个隐喻：急什么？画画是门手艺，急来急去，活能做地道吗？

The Walkers

Walkers are men of ideas.

They go on foot, listening to the original beat. They look peaceful while nowadays the society functions in a hurry.

Alongside the State Road 318, Zhang Yiwen, a painter, heads for the Tibet. Far away from the metropolis, walking under the blue sky and white clouds, he still can not avoid the view of construction and deconstruction when looking around.

To walk is like a metaphor: what use is being urgent? Painting is a skill, which, without patience, can achieve no wonderful work.
