EXQUISITE PAINTINGS FORMERLY IN THE COLLECTION OF PROFESSOR WILLIAM WU

吳定一教授舊藏中國書畫精品

Lots 249-252

吳定一(1939-2007),生於上海,幼時隨家移居香港。1957年,考入普林斯頓大學哲學系,後因興趣而轉修中國藝術與考古史專業。1979年獲普林斯頓大學藝術史博士學位,專攻龔賢,其博士論文是海外研究龔賢較早專著。畢業後先後獲聘在達特茅斯(Dartmouth)、奧博林(Oberlin)等學院任藝術史教授。後定居加州舊金山,主持中國文化中心,定期舉辦文化展覽活動,致力於向西方觀眾介紹中國文化及藝術家。自八十年代起,穿梭往返於舊金山、上海兩地,成為兩地文化藝術交流的重要橋樑。

此輯四幅精心傑構,皆得自吳定一教授家族珍藏,既有六尺巨幅,也有畫家鮮有一作之構圖,吳氏與畫家間之深交厚誼可見一斑。

程十髮 懷素寫蕉圖 設色紙本 立軸 一九八一年作

款識:定一教授法教。辛酉(1981)蒲節前一日,為藏真大師造象。程十髮。
鈐印:十髮無恙

來源:
直接得自畫家寫贈,由其家族珍藏至今

註:〈懷素寫蕉圖〉作於1981年,乃應吳氏所請而寫。畫家將電影「蒙太奇」的手法運用到構圖中,芭蕉葉大如扇,遮天蔽日,密不透風,與前景潺潺溪流兩相呼應,疏密立現,清涼頓生。青石桌上,硯池盈盈,穎尖濡墨,蕉葉成卷置於石桌一側,與一束野菊為伴,惟不見懷素身影。全幅線條抑揚頓挫,蕉葉之秀美表現得痛快淋漓,層層葉脈間一雙小鳥彷彿竊竊私語,畫面意趣盎然,乃畫家不可多得之佳構。
