独抒灵性 生命绽放

康定斯基引征舒曼的观点：“给人类黑暗的心灵带来光明，这就是艺术家的职责。”在赵莉的近期画作中，我们看到了这种闪光的价值。

既没有所谓“观念”的喧嚣，又没有所谓“当代”的标签，赵莉的作品只是一味地张扬着明亮而轻快的气息。一切皆从本性而来，率性而去。优美的音乐感使赵莉的画面透射出强烈的感染力。这一切，均源自赵莉对激情和心智的直接诉求。

赵莉倾向于使用对比强烈的色彩，使画面看上去有种跳跃感，而每每这种跳跃又都能被控制在和谐的节奏之中。赵莉籍此表达的情感就是一种激越的、即时的，甚至是欢腾的，这是生命的绽放。正与赵莉的个性相协调。
赵莉在使用这些大块对比的色彩时，散发出一种雍容大度的华贵气息。在审美观念上，赵莉喜欢具有中国传统精神的艺术因素。而其中的华丽和壮美是构成中国传统艺术精神的重要成分。

Unique Expression of Sagacity  Blooms of life
By Guo Xioachuan

Wassily Kandinsky adduced Schumann’s view that “To send light into the darkness of men’s hearts - such is the duty of the artist.”In Zhao Li’s recent works, we found such shining value. Without neither the hurly-burly of the so-called “idea” nor the label of “modern”, her works constantly convey a bright and cheerful temperament. Everything comes from her natural instinct, and goes away with freeness and frankness. A strong sense of music in her paintings adds intense appeal to her works, and all these are from her immediate quest for passion and mentality. Zhao Li’s bold, sharp and almost solid color arrangement gives her works a clear and transparent finish. In many of her paintings, she even left some blank areas, conveying a simple and bright temperament. These techniques speak for her individual elements and serve as an ideal vehicle to express her passion. Zhao Li tends to use colors of sharp contrast, giving her paintings a sense of collision that is always well controlled within a harmonious rhythm. The jumping images in her paintings deliver a passionate, lively, instant, and even jubilating emotion, which is in line with her personal characters.
