丹青绘丹心 中外共参与

刘杨

一場新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情，牵动着全国各地人民的心，也深深牵动着所有中国美术学院老师和学子的心。在疫情面前，没有局外人。

从2月起，中国美术学院中国画与书法艺术学院举办“丹青绘丹心：致敬奋战在疫情一线的人们”主题创作活动，师生同心，开展书法、国画、篆刻创作，表达对战胜疫情的祝愿。

诸多留学生闻讯后积极参与。来自日本东京的女生石井麻贵，是中国美院中国画花鸟专业2017届硕士毕业生，现在南京艺术学院攻读美术学博士学位，她以一幅《降魔成道》表达心意。她说，佛将左手放在膝盖上，右手垂下指向地面的印相被称为“降魔印”，“降魔印”是由地神协助释迦驱散恶魔的，让我们在等待春光的冬日里，祈祷着人们的心灵平静。

While the whole nation is now being emotionally and physically concerned with the coronavirus outbreak， students and teachers of China Academy of Art in Hangzhou have responded to the catastrophe with art， believing the whole nation must stand together to triumph over the killer disease.

Since February， students and teachers at School of Chinese Painting and Calligraphy have made a concerted endeavor to create artworks featuring the national heroism and solidarity in fighting COVID-19. These artworks including calligraphy， painting and seal engraving salute all the people working at the frontline and express best wishes for Chinas eventual triumph over the outbreak.

International students have joined hands with their Chinese counterparts in the concerted endeavor. After learning about the endeavor， Maki Ishii from Tokyo Japan， now a doctoral student at Nanjing University of the Arts with a masters degree in Chinese painting from China Academy of Art， created a work featuring a Buddha with a gesture made to exorcize devils.
