捨形取意,捨己從人
《太極拳論》道:「捨己從人」。太極精髓在於「捨」,摒捨自我,借勢而為,應物自然;抽象之要亦在於「捨」,捨去具象的掣肘,只取其意態精華,達致形神合一之境。朱銘的「太極系列」超脫太極的「形」,遊走於太極的「意」,將人與自然完美融合。朱銘自八〇年代起作出許多重要突破,不但從寫實細雕走向抽象劈鋸,更推出銅雕塑。是次上拍的《單鞭下勢》(拍品編號5057)有別於一般以削刻保麗龍後翻銅製作的作品,改以木頭翻銅,表面保留不經琢磨的木質紋理,富自然石塊質感。而同一款式的《單鞭下勢》曾於2015年在香港蘇富比以高價4,440,000成交,盡顯其珍罕獨特。《單鞭下勢》(拍品編號5057)中表現的是太極「捨己從人,以柔制剛」的核心精神:習武者重心下沉,右腳微踞,雙手張開,似是沉身閃避,實是順勢借力,再弓腿蓄勢反攻,展現出太極虛實兼備的功夫精粹和大器哲思。
而《太極》(拍品編號5058)的材質雖然回到朱銘最熟悉的木材,但隨著他對太極精神的體悟和對抽象手法的嫻熟掌握,風格已與前期的具象作品迴然不同,尤其是他以更粗曠勁健的大刀闊斧去捕捉太極拳的意形韻律,在雕塑表面上留下樸拙的刀痕和大塊的幾何切割,大氣逬生。若果「單鞭下勢」表現的是太極「捨己從人」之虛,那《太極》(拍品編號5058)呈現的則是太極「積柔成剛」之實。雕塑以穩如泰山的左腿單腳站立,雙臂橫開,側身借力,以迅雷不及掩耳之勢踢出右腳,帶出極大的速度感和張力,蓄勁出擊。整個肢體動作一氣呵成,如行雲流水,揮動出吞吐洪荒的氣魄。
