Many times at home and abroad have been involved in the planning art exhibitions and Symposium，Published papers and art criticism and contemporary Chinese paintings based feminist art criticism。

We are getting back to the discussion of art itself，I think we can enter academic discourse "What is art" judge，I think I would also like to return to a more traditional point，After all, today we are discussing the issue of art，Instead of discussing scientific issues，The newspaper，Including radio，On the popularization of science, we all know，So when we discuss here just like public discussion sciences，Nothing much wonderful place。

To each stage of social development，It must be the relationship between artists and art technology very closely，I think early humans are paintings painted on cave walls and，To reduce the load until the start of construction，Creating a glass，Black-rimmed glass house later began painting composition，Plus religious needs，People began on the "Bible" and planks can take pictures at any time to pray religion，Religious life，So there have been monochrome painting。

So on a great sense of painting and science，Just thinking，I think that more is on the relationship between technology and development。In China people painting abstract art，Especially the significance of his work，Reminds us that the Chinese people how to paint abstract painting? In the West abstract painting，Since we are from Pollock，A lot of heat and cold abstraction abstract，We all know they are a physical plane of some abstract painting from nature，In addition passion emoting to reflect a sense of flow screen，It is a very rational division of space，One is very excited to spill caused by pigment passion picture，Visit the painting from the audience to feel the emotions of the artist，Because feelings are never see and touch，Unless he lost his temper、There quarrel。Generally speaking，Appearing on the painting feelings，Indeed through structural picture、color、line、The flow direction of the screen，And the thickness of the screen stroke、Thickness, etc. to remove the image，And pure emotion felt texture。

China is no way out from the visual image，Even if it is from calligraphy to draw abstract，Also to help the image of the word calligraphy，So the Chinese people,，Abstract painting is very difficult，It is like Wu Guanzhong，This line can not be broken。Zhang Fangcun art I think the biggest significance is that he allows us to see the possibility of Chinese people to engage in abstract，His portrait of the kind of growth can be removed he saw an object on Earth，We can see this image removed，He finally free to，In the universe can travel sky，You can go to draw both a no beginning and no end，Neither life nor death，Neither a story nor a mood of something so special to make people feel happy and sad。Chinese people can not leave these narrative content，Zhang Fangcun these paintings still tell some of our content in this area。

For example, if we want to combine Zhang Fangcun painting entirely in science or science and art，Complete chemical reactions，Not great value。Why is not great value? Because any more famous artists now，To participate in this year's science and art，In the fourth Tsinghua Museum，That is to do with image，Macro images do physical blend，Light flu，This effect is hard to be too shocked，Throughout the dark house is a very large screen，People see space，Into the collision between the various house，Gives the shock and feel，Physical reaction is shock and science，In the plane of a small，Let your imagination into a space，This straightforward，Many foreign video work has been reflected in the content of this field，And with the image to reflect，Sometimes also want to point out stippling，Some also use dark yellow，By all means do，This approach is probably more，More substance，Means more，Smoother image，Sense of time and sense of speed is more appropriate。

Therefore, to fully use modern technology and discoveries of modern technology mix，The reaction from at least visually and spiritual，In this respect, I think this，Art and Science of ways to do，But more convincing。

Background is，Or to go back to academic criticism，Or to see your results，Or to see the last picture you tell our image and give us the feeling of what kind of，Because people are interested in their own interest，If no one，Even how changes，Because people，He began to consider where we came from，Where to go，Taking into account the ultimate fate，Taking into account the universe and my relationship，So finally go back to the people。So I think here I want to go back to my basic form of judgment。

The second is your sense of time out on the structure，I said from the beginning that there is no sense of time and no sense of the end of time。If, as we generally narrative，General social narrative，Generally speaking flower、A sun，Or we perceived a social phenomenon，Because people established the rule to the world，Natural world to the provisions of this Order，How we were born，How death，So you work from the inside，Developed from Western abstract painting in one kind of do not have time、There is no concept of revelation，While the concept is scientific、Physics，But man is another way to explain how the world。

The third is in the form of composition，Your color and full color compared to traditional painting，The relationship between well-being can ignore，But the emphasis on rhythm on the entire screen，The association between each other，You still imitated the natural combination of imagination and method。

Why do I say imagine，the first，Melting between matter how you think the universe is like。second，You from nature，Or glazed pottery of the change from，From inside the kiln can still find a lot of image acquisition。third，This gray paintings inside you，Because there is no sense of time，So you are in the gray paintings is no sense of direction，Do not want to come out do not want to go。

Then you (Zhang Fangcun) and Western abstract painting、The biggest difference with Pollock，But there is China's Taoism，There is a free float floating in the wider world where is where things，I would think consciously thinking inside the East，There is a very slow，Come out of，Very free、Quantum Life、Fluctuations in life，Make it feel free vibration。So I think your painting more we talk about science and its，It might as well say under the influence of science，We come to understand how traditional oriental thinking，How to use technology to express our methods appear on this form of thinking。In this case，I think your contribution to the Chinese painting is greater than your contribution to science，Thinking of painting under the influence of modern physics and modern science and technology and you explained everything life has a relationship。
