This paper takes American painter Richard Diebenkorn as a case study to investigate the role of composition in oil painting and how to use compositional language in artistic creation,based on an analysis of his works during the Berkeley period.The research content of the paper includes the following parts:the introduction includes the research background,current status,significance,and research methods;Chapter One,based on Kandinsky’s modern composition theory,divides Diebenkorn’s compositions into form and color,and uses Diebenkorn’s representational works during the Berkeley period as an example to analyze the balance between form and color,and how Diebenkorn uses color and form to compose his paintings;Chapter Two analyzes form,and Chapter Three analyzes color,both using the author’s own creative work as examples to analyze how to extract form and color from the picture and apply Diebenkorn’s compositional research to their own creation,and then further study how to use composition in oil painting creation practice.In conclusion,the author believes that a compositional work requires not only a balance of form but also the establishment of color order in the picture.The two complement each other,and neither can be lacking. |
