常玉─裸女

常玉於1901年出生於四川紡織大戶之家,從小家境優渥,13歲時即學水墨畫並從名書法家趙熙練字,展露極高的藝術天分,1921年他以「勤工儉學」的名義赴法,年輕的常玉不媚世俗,未如徐悲鴻或潘玉良至正統的藝術學院求學,來到以自由開放的風氣著名,文學咖啡館與畫廊薈萃的蒙帕拿斯區定居,並入大茅屋工作室(la Grande Chaumiere)學習,該畫院提供裸體模特兒讓藝術家寫生作畫,對於來自中國一民風保守之地的常玉,此充滿異國情調的環境,帶給他極大的震撼與創作上的靈感啟迪,他把從中國母體文化所得的筆墨運用技巧和東方寫意的美學和歐洲現代派大膽的畫風融為一體,發展出簡鍊精純的創作風格。裸女為常玉最為擅長的題材之一,呈現了藝術家對於身體之美的探索,法國著名作曲家暨常玉的好友法蘭寇(Johan Franco)曾言: 「常玉知道如何以最精簡的方法,勾劃出事物中的精髓及幽默感,他的畫裡蘊含他民族血統裡的特殊性。」
