他用眼睛撫觸着日常，觀看着世界，像是不曾看見過似的。一些隱藏的東西在塗抹中被打開，也許是生命的質感，也許是物之性格。總有些東西是你我忽視，或不曾這樣認真觀察的——角落的，局部的，個體的，團契的。換個視角也許真的會不同。

維格多·阿利卡

Avigdor Arikha

1929-2010

以色列藝術家，1929年出生於羅馬尼亞，享年81歲。他是畫家、製圖員和版畫家，後來成爲了以色列最重要的當代藝術家之一。早年以抽象藝術享譽畫壇。1965年，在他取得巨大成功之時卻毅然放棄了這一切，重頭再來。他開始將視線僅僅指向可見世界，畫風走向寫實。並以寫生作爲自己終身奉行的創作準則，由此而真正樹立了其個人的藝術面貌。

“

自述

——阿維格多·阿利卡

當你即興作畫時，需要的條件是你必須從觀察對象的趣味中去衡量和協調所有的比例關係，由它開始輻射到整個畫面，海浪般的向四周蔓延，一旦你從外部開始就會不準確……我從一個點開始，擴展開來，並不知道最終怎樣完成。

self-portrait

Oil on canvas

13歲時，阿利卡被關進了納粹的集中營，後來他有幸被解救，並於1944年進入以色列的耶路撒冷工藝美術學校接受包豪斯式的現代美術教育，開始用素描描繪那裏的殘酷生活和猶太人的不幸命運。

20歲時，阿利卡到達嚮往已久的巴黎，戰後流行於西方的抽象表現主義風格對他產生了很大的影響。

現實即是一種幻覺，因爲它不再延續，這種信念與他後來的藝術精神有極爲契合之處，他所關心的是迅速抓住轉瞬即逝的真實。

1950年阿利卡來到意大利，對那裏溼壁畫的研究，使他領悟和獲得了局部作畫和一氣呵成以及留白的意義和技巧。

回到巴黎，阿利卡遇到了在精神上一直給予他有力支持的以色列作家貝克特。

這段時間，他畫的都是抽象畫，他的作品和標題運用了大量的黑色，完全現代和真正前衛的藝術內容，這得益於貝克特。

1965年，阿利卡在盧浮宮看卡拉瓦喬畫展時，一種深刻的危機感油然而生，他意識到“我所做的一切都是從繪畫到繪畫，沒有將繪畫行爲與觀看事實聯繫起來。”

這個畫展給他的印象是“我們的文化是風格化的，正如卡拉瓦喬開始在那裏工作的羅馬一樣。”他覺得他所信仰的東西與他在抽象畫中所追求的清晰性之間失去了平衡，後者凌駕前者而破壞了它們之間的張力。

既然所畫的一切都可以讀解成某物，回溯到現實的世界，爲何不直接去畫現實事物呢？這對他“的確是一個可怕的打擊。”於是阿利卡迅速從抽象畫轉向了寫實藝術。

self-portrait

Oil on canvas

他的作品內容全部來自日常生活，他相信任何一件微小的事情都可能具有意義。他認爲開始作畫就要直接進入狀態，就像“聽到電話鈴，要立即作出反應”，別無選擇地服從這種衝動，還要運用正在嘗試的新語言和新形式。

一幅畫必須一次完成，絕不允許拖到第二天，太長的時間會使手和眼的母題喪失殆盡。由於他有過抽象繪畫創作的經歷，他的具象繪畫便不再像古典繪畫那樣再現客觀世界，而是按照自己的感受方式來表達。

阿利卡作畫時似乎沒有一個構思的過程，他的感覺總是從一個特定的點開始向外擴散，從一隻眼睛、或者一個鼻孔，然後像波浪一樣，從這個點漫向四周的海灘。

1970年11月，阿利卡的版畫在巴黎與奧登伯格、勞申伯格和約翰斯的聯展確立了他寫實畫家的地位和身份。

儘管他描繪的題材大多取自周圍的日常生活，室內窗外的所見之物以及一些爲人所不注意的細小的角落，但是他堅信微小的事物同樣可以具有大意義。

事實上，阿利卡開拓了西方傳統意義上的靜物畫領域。他的靜物題材作品更爲注意形的構造，這與他曾經歷抽象藝術的階段有密切關係。

人物作品

瑪麗亞·凱瑟琳

他的肖像將現代人的不安用一種簡練輕盈的筆法表現出來，如《瑪麗亞·凱瑟琳》肖像和大量的自畫像。

《瑪麗亞·凱瑟琳》是阿利卡最有名的肖像畫，人們會對作品的直率感到震驚和恐懼。他的畫面塗得很薄，有種“逸筆草草”的感覺，其間透露出一種純真自然的效果。

在色彩運用上他堅持嚴格的固有色，他的畫室安排也是白色光線，以避免光源色對物體的影響。他的色彩選擇也非常簡單，調色板上通常只有四種顏色。

在阿利卡的作品中，我們同樣可以感受到古典繪畫的痕跡，不時可以看出委拉斯開茲、丟勒、凡.愛克和荷蘭畫派對他的影響。

例如，油畫《羞澀》被稱爲20世紀繪畫中最有感觸性的裸體，它有着一種紀念碑式的性感與憂傷。

這使得他的繪畫具有某種程度上的永恆感，而這一點正是他改爲從事寫實繪畫追求的目的，這也確立了他在西方當代藝術史上的不可替代的地位。
