画家熊明简介
Artist XiongMing 生日:1965 籍贯:江西
熊明1986年入浙江美术学院进修(现中国美术学院)油画系师从全山石、马玉如、秦大虎、徐芒耀、 黄德义、金湄等老师。
90~91年就读于杭州教育学院。2011年7月受意大利美术家联盟邀请赴意展出个人的作品,他独特的“中国 味”油画风格在当地油画界产生一定的反响。现今为法国卢浮宫签约画师。据悉,卢浮宫对签约艺术 家要求非常严格乃至苛刻,迄今能与其签约的中国乃至华裔艺术家寥寥无几。协议一年一签,即使签 约,卢浮宫也可以根据艺术家的创作表现随时解约。正因如此,卢浮宫艺术殿堂的魅力令艺术家们梦 寐以求。当年如毕加索、莫奈、德加、霍贝等大师都系与卢浮宫签约。如今,与卢浮宫已签约达5年的 熊明,又与卢浮宫续签,正走向艺术生涯的辉煌进程。 2018年2月在上海壹号美术馆举办“韶妍海上”国内首次个人展览。2018年5月在法国巴黎参加卢浮宫组织的画家作品展,同月加入法国卢浮宫 艺术家协会。2018年9月3日加入美国肖像协会,2019年10月17日加入纽约美术家协会。2019年11 月他的作品《大师的起步》入展美国国家画展。
画 家 的 原 则
The principle of the painter
熊明始终坚持一个原则:“中国绘画以“写”马绘画的基本技法;中国绘画讲“书”“画”同源,我把这一点作为自己绘画的基本原则,然后结合从老师那学到的油画基础来解释中国绘画。尽心尽力形成自己独 特的风格”。心无旁骛,努力提高自己在稳定中不断前行,利用每年在卢浮宫画画期间对绘画的起源和古 典作深入体会,把古典绘画的技术带回中国,用基本理念,基本色彩,透视空间思维来丰富我们国家的绘 画文化,用西方的语言表现中国的文化。用中国文化来诠释艺术之美,展示中国绘画独特的艺术魅力。担 负起一个画家最基本的社会责任,为推动东方文化尽绵薄之力。

画家熊明“中国味”油画获意大利美术家联盟青睐9月2日,意大利美术家联盟主席、意大利北部商会联盟主席杰 米瑞·吉利Carmine Gelli和意大利画家克劳迪奥·朱利亚内利,专程到杭州河坊街画家熊明,并高度赞赏他的油画水 平。杰米瑞·吉利认为,熊明的油画是真正做到了中西结合,他的画展现的是中国文化,采用的是西方油画的创作 手法,使欧洲人能更好更容易理解中国的文化,了解中国文化的博大精深。而且熊明是一个很全面的艺术家,他能 够在油画中体现出中国水墨“写”的特点。7月份在意大利,他带去了有中国写意风格的油画作品,并现场表演了国画,给当地的人带来非常深刻的印象。杰米瑞·吉利说:“我经常往来于意大利和中国之间,但是像熊明这样能 兼顾中国画和油画的画家真是难的。”由于意大利美术家联盟对熊明的认可,他们计划年将再次邀请熊明去意大 利,为他举办画展。对中国的画家来说在油画上想获得欧洲人的认可很难,但我们认为熊明将更容易被人接受和喜 爱,因为他拥有杰出的绘画技艺。”杰米瑞·吉利说。熊明画的牡丹是在宣纸上画油画水彩,牡丹叶子的表现手法 是把中国的大写意和西方的塑造同时放在一起。他在油画中体现出中国水墨山水的特点。国外绘画、雕塑作品让他 深感震撼并有了创作灵感,他在自己的油画作品中加入中国元素,在抽象中涉及许多中国传统题材,向世人显示了 中国传统美学的意境,以自己特有的姿态证明自己的理念:“如何用西方语言去诠释中国绘画”。
