一代華人抽象大師趙無極先生2013年4月9日於與世長辭，全球留下無限感慨與不捨。趙無極作品於抽象藝術中獨樹一幟，堪稱當代世界畫壇優異傑出的藝術家。其成長歷程中一方面深受中國傳統哲學與美學思想的影響，另一方面亦熟諳世界古今藝術流派的風格和歷史，故在油畫、版畫與水墨畫等藝術上形成了獨特的風格。趙無極成功地運用西方的繪畫方式，透過中國傳統美學中虛實相生的審美空間，體現飄逸玄遠的東方心性。文中介紹趙無極生平紀要，不同時期畫風的轉化，並深入剖析闡述東方心性進入西方藝術之創作本源及呈現方式。謹以本文回顧與緬懷其對藝術的貢獻，及其在人們心中絡印永恒的美好記憶。

This unique artist left us on April 9th, 2013. The world is saddened by his death. The modern era has never seen an artist produce this caliber of abstract art. During this period Zao Wou-Ki used traditional Chinese philosophy and eye catching effects to portray a great understanding of that generation of history and style. His method of Chinese paintings and print making has never been produced before. He succeeded in using Western Oil paintings to explain Traditional Chinese aesthetics using a distant flowing Asian concept that reflects the elegant mysterious oriental mind. This paper records the changing nature of his life's work through time. Zao Wou-Ki used Eastern methods to impress and move the Western art community. His influence will be well remembered in the art world, as well as, in the hearts and minds of everyone who has been in contact with his works.
