2011年11月美国伦理学教授布鲁斯·佩恩观看中国画家洪涛作品展感言
布鲁斯·佩恩 (Bruce Payne)， 纽约唐纳德和雪莉基金会 (Donald and Shelly Foundation, NYC)主管; 前杜克大学(Duke University)伦理学教授 中国画家洪涛的作品展示了蓬勃旺盛的生命力和丰富多彩的画面。这位画家有卓越的天赋。他的画耀眼夺目，有强烈的影响力和摄人魂魄的力量。这些作品从实际内容中抽象出来，是一种纯艺术的绘画。画中有许多景观暗示，但仔细察看，却又是用颜料来描绘的生物形态：气泡，大理石花纹，在液态流程之中流动。这一流程本身就很吸引人。 洪涛的画作具有一种潇洒大器，运笔自如的风格。看到洪涛的画，让人想起1910年前后的抽象派画家康定斯基(Kandinsky)艺术感极强的作品。在早期抽象派画家中，康定斯基的作品充满生机，但却缺少一些娴熟自如。洪涛的画比康定斯基的作品画面布局更融合，展现浑然一体。 波洛克(Pollock)整体画面上颜色的泼洒会引起我们的共鸣，霍夫曼(Hofmann)画作色彩间的相互关系也会起到同样的作用。与抽象的表现主义者相比，洪涛的作品也可以得出同样的结论。 洪涛使用颜料的手法有点像李希德(Richter)惯用在他的那些大幅色彩丰富的画作技法。李希德的画风变化无常，几乎每一幅画可以把观众推开去，再把他们吸引回来。洪涛的作品在近距离的欣赏中，比起从远距离看更富有深意，更可能发现它们给予人们赏心悦目而又深遂玄妙的内涵。
Statement by Bruce Payne, Director of the Donald and Shelly Foundation, NYC, NY；former professor of ethics, Duke University. The paintings by the Chinese painter Hongtao display exuberant and colorful work. The man has great gifts. His paintings dazzle, impact strongly and feature immediate power. Abstracted from any content, these works make a case for a kind of pure painting. There are lots of suggestions of landscapes, but on closer view, the suggestions of biological forms are very much paint: bubbles, marbling, moments in a very liquid process, a process which is also interesting in its own right. There is an unrestrained quality to Hongtao's paintings. If one thinks of similarly exuberant works from an earlier time - the very painterly abstractions of Kandinsky around 1910, for example - Hongtao's work seems to have less in the way of underlying tension, less by way of durably involving interactions among the parts. Comparisons with the abstract expressionists would indicate something of the same reaction. Pollock's insistence on the drips in the all-over paintings demand something of us; so do the interrelationships of the colors and shapes of Hofmann's paintings. Some of what Hongtao is doing with paint is like what Richter does in his big, colorful paintings. But Richter keeps changing, and almost every painting has as much in it to push the viewer away as to draw the viewer in. It would be interesting to see Hongtao's paintings up extremely close and possibly discover that the pleasures they offer are more complex than seen from a distance.
