Abstract

The sudden outbreak of Covid-19 epidemic is an unprecedented battle for mankind, in which the sublimity and greatness of the human nature of medical workers in the frontlines from all countries is seen clearly from their brave devotion to the rescue of the infected. It is also an indication of the real concerns and attitudes as well as the abilities of the politicians of all countries in their dealing with emergencies. For most ordinary people, they also dramatized an interesting life play to the world. We are surprised to find out how much artistic people and people who are accompanied by art can bring to the world at this critical period of time. Their passion for artistic quality life has inspired countless lives. Art is not only the real record and representation of human history and life, sublimation of their spirit can also become a daily life mode of human beings, apart from the pursuit of materialism. At this special period when life is threatened by the virus, the desire of human beings to pursue and experience the spirit and even the spiritual space is becoming stronger and stronger. This disaster has brought us the opportunity of life reflection and the hope of rebirth. This paper tries to tell people that to live artistically while quarantining at home is not only what people at present are pursuing but also the long-term aspiration of life for the future.

摘要

此次突如其来的疫情,是人类一场空前绝后的战役,在这次战役中不仅非常鲜活地展现出前线各国医务工作者们人性中的崇高与伟大、非常集中地展示了各国政要们的真实态度和能力,而对于大多数普通人而言,也极具戏剧化地向世界展演了一出耐人寻味的人生大戏。这其中我们惊喜地发现,那些以艺术为伴的民族和人群此时带给全世界多么可贵的生命热情,深深地鼓舞了无数生命。艺术不仅是人类历史和生活的真实记录和再现升华,也可以成为人类日常的一种生活模式,随着人类对物质的追求已经到达一个瓶颈阶段,人类对精神甚至是灵性空间的追求和体验的欲望会愈来愈强烈。疫情虽然致人类于灾难之中,但却给我们带来了反思的契机和重生的希望。本文试图从美学和艺术的角度去阐释,创造艺术化的生活不仅是疫情期间,留守家中的一种完美的生活状态,而且也是中国未来全民族共同追求的生活理想。
