Technical features
The main theory of Western relief is "Compression by comparison", while the main theory of domestic relief is "Na Guang Na Yin". Skills flexibly absorb two different relief techniques, often the former expresses the high relief mainly with the face, the latter expresses the low relief mainly with the line; the former shapes the nearest and main body with fresh outline and prominent image in the picture, and the latter shapes the shallow prospect. Sometimes in order to highlight the main body, give people a sense of reality, and even shape the scenery into a round carving ritual visual effect.
In addition, compared with general relief, Ou sculpture also has a distinct feature, that is, it uses color to depict the intensity of light, the cold and warm tone of deep space, which greatly strengthens the artistic appeal of the picture. At this point, it is the same as western realistic oil painting method. The principle of light and color and the treatment of tone have become an indispensable artistic means in Ou plastic. Therefore, the Ou sculpture art is not only an ancient art, but also an outstanding young art. The precious and bold innovation of artists makes the Ou sculpture have a strong flavor of the times that other kinds of Arts can't match.
The wall sculptures of the Zhejiang Hall of the Great Hall of the People "West Lake Panorama" and "Yandang Autumn Landscape" are excellent works in Ou sculpture. These two representative Ou sculptures, the former is like a beautiful, quiet, affectionate girl, the latter is a magnificent, powerful, rough and bold hero. By using a series of expressive techniques, the creator highlights the comparative effects of quiet movement, softness and rigidity, cold and warm, thin and thick, and strong and weak, which fully reflects the exquisite skill and rich expressive means of Ou plastic art.
