翟倚衛(wèi)的人生是絢麗多彩的,他早年學習玉雕,打下了堅實基礎(chǔ)。之后,為了追求藝術(shù)離開這個行業(yè),輾轉(zhuǎn)游歷于日本、歐洲,并定居海外數(shù)年;正是文化的多樣性,成就了他藝術(shù)的非凡靈感,也為他后來的回歸埋下了精彩的伏筆。于是,我們才能得見他為行業(yè)注入的一脈新風。
Zhai Yiwei’s life is colorful. He learned jade sculpture in his early years, which set a solid foundation for his art life. After that, he travelled to Japan and Europe, and settled there for several years. It is the cultural diversity that stimulates his exceptional artistic inspiration, and hints that he will return some day. Hence the new style he has brought to this area.
但凡從事藝術(shù)的人,對藝術(shù)都有一種天然的親近,那么你是怎么對繪畫感興趣的?
People in the art world seem to engage closely with art. How did you get interested in painting?
這得益于母親的影響。我母親喜歡繪畫,有空了經(jīng)常會畫一些東西,盡管她畫的并不能說非常好,但她有這方面的興趣。小時候,她看到我喜歡繪畫就給我買了黑板、粉筆這些東西,這在當時是很好的條件了。當然,那時候繪畫也沒人教,自己全憑興趣亂畫。有一次我在路邊看人家畫毛主席像,文革時期畫這個題材的很多,那人畫完了就教我畫,我特別興奮,回家之后還畫個沒完,我對這件事記憶特別深刻。這種情形一直持續(xù)到進入上海玉雕廠工業(yè)中學,之后才開始正規(guī)地學習美術(shù),從此就一發(fā)而不可收拾,幾乎筆不離手了。這么多年來我對繪畫從沒感到厭倦,一直很有樂趣。
My mother was a great influence on me. She loved painting very much. She usually drew something when she wasn’t busy. She didn’t paint very well, but she was very interested in it. When seeing my interest in painting as a child, my mother bought me a blackboard and chalks, which were in quite a good condition then. No one taught me painting at that time. I learned it myself. Once I saw a person drawing Chairman Mao on the roadside, which was a popular subject during the Cultural Revolution, after he finished the job, he taught me. I was so excited that I could not stop painting even after I returned home. It was impressive in my memory. That lasted until I got to Shanghai Jade Sculpture Plant Industry Middle School. Then I started to learn painting in a formal way. After so many years, I have never been tired of painting.
小時候的繪畫基礎(chǔ)與特長,應(yīng)該說對你進入上海玉雕廠工業(yè)中學起到了關(guān)鍵性作用吧。
Has your painting experience in early years played an important role in you getting into Shanghai Jade Sculpture Industry Middle School?
上海玉雕廠之前都是直接從美術(shù)學校招人,后來開辦了上海玉雕廠工業(yè)中學,從上海的小學畢業(yè)生中招收一些學生定向培養(yǎng),作為廠里的人才儲備。那時候不存在考試的概念,而是直接從各個小學選拔綜合表現(xiàn)比較優(yōu)秀的學生,尤其是有繪畫基礎(chǔ)的。我那一屆玉雕廠在盧灣區(qū)和徐匯區(qū)共挑選了100個人,組成兩個班,我就這樣被選進去了,那年是1975年,我14歲。工業(yè)中學的這種培養(yǎng)模式在當時算是很先進的了,一是保證了玉雕廠人才的供應(yīng),再就是改變了手工業(yè)師徒傳承的傳統(tǒng),讓玉雕這種技藝的傳承更具規(guī)模和系統(tǒng)性,兼顧了理論和實踐,讓人才的發(fā)展更加全面,有利于行業(yè)整體水平的提升。對當時的我而言,玉雕與美術(shù)緊密相連卻又充滿新奇,可以說我在玉雕中發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個全新的天地。另外,這件事對我的人生也有著特殊的意義。按照當時的政策,我原本是該去插隊落戶的。因為我姐姐是上海工礦企業(yè)的產(chǎn)業(yè)工人,她所在的企業(yè)屬于全民所有制,相當于現(xiàn)在的國企。按照當時的規(guī)定,我姐姐進全民所有制企業(yè)了,我談也不要談,就必須插隊落戶?,F(xiàn)在看來我的運氣還是不錯的。
Shanghai Jade Sculpture Factory recruited workers directly from the art school. Later the factory established Shanghai Jade Sculpture Industry Middle School and recruited some graduates of primary schools in Shanghai, training them especially for the factory. The students, especially those who had painting basis, were directly selected from each primary school without any entrance exams. The jade sculpture factory chose 100 students in Luwan District and Xuhui District, and formed two classes. It was in 1975 when I was 14 years old. The educational pattern of our middle school was quite advanced then. It guaranteed ample craftsmen for the jade sculpture factory, and changed the tradition of masters and apprentices. It offered an in-scale and systematic educational system which gave consideration to both theory and practice, promoted the development of talented people and improved the level of the whole industry. For me at that time, jade sculpture was closely related to fine art but full of novelty. I found a brand new world in this area. Moreover, it has a special meaning in my life. According to the regulations, I was supposed to go to live and work in a production team in rural areas, because my elder sister was a worker in one mining enterprise in Shanghai. The enterprise was owned by the locals, which was similar to state-owned enterprises. I was lucky to stay at the Jade Sculpture Factory instead of going to the countryside.
