拍品資料及來源

「保留最重要之處,了解畫家的本意。我探究如何在複雜之中以線與點創作……我描繪風景、建築與自然;人物和動物。這一切都不是客觀對象,而是構成宇宙的各種元素。它們是當中的一部分。」
-趙無極

趙無極在巴黎各個文藝圈子廣結良朋,更計劃到各地旅遊拓展視野。他在1951年到瑞士遊歷,終有機會親身探索保羅·克利基金會的大型收藏,這不但為他帶來深遠影響,也促使他歸根溯源,為畫作尋找靈感。

《無題》為藝術家到訪意大利當年創作,摒棄西方藝術的線性透視法,著重以特定距離從上觀察景象,描繪沐浴在光線中的不同景物,如詩如畫。畫中的山、林、鹿與人物巧妙交疊,互相貫穿,展現趙無極揉合中式構圖與西方媒材的革新創作方法。粉色在藝術家的作品非常鮮見,在此背景色調中,當空半月散發閃爍藍光,營造出神秘優美的氛圍。一如傳統中國畫家,趙無極把意大利旅程中的精神、個人感受與情緒注入《無題》,而非單單描繪所見事物的實際面貌。與此同時,他純熟細緻地在畫幅邊緣留白,此為中國山水畫傳統手法,為作品更添一抹夢幻與喜悅。
