中國古代雕塑的特點

中國古代雕塑是中國古代藝術精華，中國古代雕塑在題材內容、形式風格、雕塑技法，以及所使用的材質上都具有鮮明濃郁的民族特色、時代特色。

Ancient Chinese sculpture is the essence of ancient Chinese art. Ancient Chinese sculpture has distinctive national and contemporary characteristics in theme, content, form and style, sculpture techniques, and materials used.

裝飾性是中國古代雕塑孕育于工藝美術所帶來的胎記，無論是人物還是動物，也無論是明器藝術、宗教造像還是建筑裝飾雕刻，都普遍反映著傳統悠久的裝飾趣味。

Decorative is the birthmark of ancient Chinese sculpture, which was conceived in the arts and crafts. Whether it is figures or animals, whether it is Mingqi art, religious statues or architectural decorative sculpture, it generally reflects the traditional decorative taste with a long history.

中國古代雕塑和繪畫是一對同胞兄弟，都孕育于原始工藝美術。從彩陶時代起，塑繪便互相補充、緊密結合。到二者都成熟之后，仍然“塑形繪質”，在雕塑上加彩（專業術語稱作“妝鑾”）以提高雕塑的表現能力。

Ancient Chinese sculpture and painting are a pair of brothers, both of whom were conceived in the primitive arts and crafts. Since the era of painted pottery, plastic painting has been complementary and closely integrated with each other. After both of them are mature, they still "shape and paint quality", adding color to the sculpture (called "makeup Luan" in professional terms) to improve the performance of the sculpture.

西方雕塑從古希臘時期起，就努力摹仿再現自然，寫實性極強。中國雕塑和繪畫很遲才脫離工藝美術的母體而獨立門戶。在漫長的幾千年間，它們只是工藝美術品的兩種裝飾手段。

Since ancient Greece, Western sculpture has tried to imitate and reproduce nature, which is highly realistic. It was very late for Chinese sculpture and painting to break away from the matrix of Arts and crafts and become an independent portal. For thousands of years, they were only two decorative means of Arts and crafts.

裝飾不求再現，只追求表現物象，因此發育出中國雕塑與繪畫的共同品格——不求肖似（高度寫實地再現自然），形成了高度的意象性特點。

Decoration does not seek to reproduce, but only to express the image, so it has developed the common character of Chinese sculpture and painting - not seeking Xiao Xiang (highly realistic reproduction of nature), forming a high degree of image characteristics.
