阿城“领跑”中国造型史
——中央美术学院学术委员会系列讲座第二回：中国造型史
2012年3月30日傍晚5时，在我馆西门又排起了长队，馆外猛烈的风沙并没有减退大家对晚上讲座的期待；讲座开始前半小时，听众们开始井然有序地进场。
晚上7时，“中央美术学院学术委员会系列讲座第二回：中国造型史”讲座开始，我院殷双喜教授主持讲座，他首先为大家介绍今晚的主讲钟阿城先生的概括，玩笑称阿城不是学院派，是“海派”——顾名海量的阅读之意。 
主持人 殷双喜
主讲人 钟阿城
今晚讲座的特别之处，是在讲台上准备了一个白板，供阿城“讲课”所用，阿城先生从李泽厚先生在《美的历程》中列举的＂食人卣＂入题，提出他对文中解释的质疑，并希望今天用一个多小时领大家＂快跑＂中国造型史。
阿城谈到研究青铜器，需要看器型的底部，于是他在法国的博物馆时就请示馆内工作人员看到器皿的底部有一条蛇的纹样，有＂巫师＂的寓意。他所理解的中国古代虎符的概念是两个一半是＂一＂，此概念在很多青铜器的造型上得以体现。张开口的野兽不一定是凶残、吃掉，更可能是一种保护。也就是为何他对李泽厚先生文中所提的“食人”有异议。
阿城讲：彩陶上的纹饰有非常多的意义，我们只能加以猜测，不可妄加定论为＂几何纹＂、＂螺旋纹＂、＂体现劳动过程中的愉悦＂等，并且谈到自己曾经在云南插队时的一些经历，与这些原始纹样联系在一起加以想象解释。
阿城用很多图像举例＂视幻觉＂，那么彩陶中的＂旋转纹＂、＂震动纹＂在巫师的引导下，让人觉得离开地面，往天上去了，他由此得出结论：这个时期的陶瓷都是＂法器＂。另外他还提出＂旋转纹＂的世界性，以非洲母亲为祖先，再在各个地区继续发展。并联系到印象派，如梵高......
周取代商之后，在青铜器及祭祀系统上是承接而来，几乎没有变化；再到东周，纹样开始有了变化，最后进入战国时期，＂大眼贼＂的图像完全消失：统一的神兽形象被瓦解。
造型史走到汉，发生了重大变化：贫民得到天下，从此中国造型中所关注的全为世俗生活的场景。那么，阿城认为中国造型史也可以到此结束了；巧妙地将中国造型史在一个多小时顺利“跑”至终点。
