普普雕塑的全球在地化——探朱銘市民木雕的人間性

A Study of Pop Sculpture Glocalization in the Human Condition of Ju Ming's Wood Carving Citizen Series

朱銘是個人人耳熟能詳的美術雕塑專家。「朱銘美術館」裡，到處陳列著朱銘的精心傑作，而這充滿創意的美術館，正位於雲霧繚繞、風景優美的金山山區。朱銘生於窮苦人家，從小就不喜愛讀書，母親只好送他去學雕刻、藝術的地方。當朱銘知道母親的苦衷之後，便更發憤向上，努力向師傅李金川學習雕刻。在他十九歲時，就成了雕刻工藝品的大師，然而他對自己的作品並不滿意。希望能突破作品的他，在三十歲那年，又拜了雕塑家楊英風為師，他從掃地、泡茶重新做起，時常觀摩老師雕塑的技巧，沉浸在大師的風範中。在隨著楊老師學習的過程中，楊老師曾經說過：「藝術應該要求新的內涵，新的精神表達。」這句話被朱銘牢牢的記在腦海裡。於是，他放棄了精雕細鑿的雕刻風格，改以自然、簡單又樸實的刀法來呈現出自己的作品。西元1976年，朱銘以歷史人物、民間故事和帶著泥土的水牛為創作題材，這些作品，在國立歷史博物館展出時，造成了藝術界極大的轟動。雖然朱銘受到大家的肯定，但他仍想更進一步的突破，而不想當個只會雕刻關公、水牛的木匠，他不斷的摸索、嘗試，尋找新的創作主題。後來他在練太極拳的時，領悟到了太極哲理，他利用青銅鑄造了一尊尊的太極，表現出太極「以柔克剛」的氣派。這《太極系列》的作品曾在法國巴黎的梵登廣場矗立著，與羅浮宮的藝術精品相互輝映。朱銘的作品，不斷創新主題，也不斷將使用材料變化。他的見識、氣魄及專注於創造的神情，終於使他登上了雕塑藝術的高峰，成為享譽國際的藝術家。
