從鏡頭中覓藝趣

張建成

義烏，猛然崛起的新型城市；繡湖公園，繼承傳統的新構園林；華川書社，經常推陳出新地展示書畫、奇石、珠寶的廳堂。

不久前，這里又舉辦了一位來自鄉村的攝影家的藝術回鄉匯報展——“藝海踏浪”。

攝影家叫吳維康，是義烏東部半山區廿三里人，1944年生。1967年，他從金華師范畢業，被分配到更深更遠的武義山區當一名小學教師，四十年后的2006年放下心愛的教鞭。

武義有秀麗山川，有古老村落，有淳樸孩童。吳維康形容自己是在默默耕種著梯田。但他同時又是多才的園藝師，一位文化藝術的狂熱追求者。多年來，他利用業余時間用鏡頭記錄美麗的畫面、閃光的瞬間，用照相表達愛祖國、愛家鄉的感情，在方寸中展現鐘愛自然、擁抱生活、尋找快樂、追求真善美的高雅藝趣。

退休之后，吳維康有了更多時間投進對攝影的愛戀中。他背著相機，遍訪武義的風景名勝、民俗風情、當代生活：汩汩溫泉、冬冬龍舟、映日荷花、七彩梯田、緊張刺激的斗牛、轟鳴激烈的武義全國汽車摩托車大賽……他連續出版了《武義風景線》《武義溫泉》《大圓塘有機茶園風光》《武義城區全景圖》等8本畫冊，成為宣傳武義的金名片。同時，他又把上千幅展示武義形象的圖片無償提供給政府部門、媒體和企業使用。吳維康說：“我能用鏡頭為宣傳第二故鄉、提高她的知名度和美譽度出點力，就是自己最開心的事。”

吳維康的攝影并不僅止于此。他出游過世界五大洲的30多個國家，攫取異國風情，發現美的歷程。更難能可貴的是，他還不斷突破自我，在藝術上接連攀登新的高峰:今年68歲的他竟然已經拍攝了68位層面、層級、層次多元的中外人體女模特。

這是“迷人、玄妙的光效，精彩、合韻的影調，和諧、瑰麗的色調，美妙、流暢的線條，新穎、精美的構圖”（沙占祥《東方之姝》序：別具美學魅力的人體攝影）。在吳維康人體攝影里，有價值的或者值得關注的，當是他并非科班出身的鄉村攝影家的身份，當是他并非利用室內布景而取大自然鄉野的山崖林泉間的拍攝，當是他表現的為具有原始樸素氣息的中國農家女的生動意蘊——最充分地顯示出需要使之永恒的部分：嬌美容貌、柔媚胴體、優美姿態、清純氣質。這些作品具有新奇、獨特的藝術魅力，因為是真正的自然美、生活美與藝術美的巧妙融合，傾注了拍攝者與被拍攝者的深切的愛。

中國當代攝影評論家沙占祥從藝術的角度觀察分析：“吳維康先生的創意人體攝影作品集，以其獨到的視角，新穎的創意，嫻熟的技巧，優美的構圖，結合計算機圖像技術，融東方女性的嫵媚與江南風光的秀麗、古代建筑的馨香于一體，創作出了一批優秀的、別具美學魅力的人體攝影作品。”（同上）

2002年以來，吳維康先后舉辦“八婺人體藝術攝影巡回展”和出版人體藝術攝影作品集《東方之姝》，這使得他在攝影圈內名聲大噪，迅速躥紅。他現為中國攝影家協會會員、中國藝術攝影家協會理事、武義縣攝影家協會副主席。他的攝影作品多次在國際比賽中獲獎，是國際攝影學會的會員。

吳維康被人譽為“潮老頭”，為適應互聯網及數碼攝影發展趨勢，他如同當年刻苦備教案一般，嫻熟地掌握了數碼圖片后期制作和遨游網絡技能。前些年，他創辦“吳維康攝影網站”，經常與各地影友交流。2010年下半年，他又在新浪博客上開通了“維樂維康”博客。

維樂維康。吳維康解釋道，自己找到了藝術養生的最佳途徑：從鏡頭中尋找快樂和健康。

果然，熟悉的人說，攝影使吳維康心境更加開朗，遇事也能想得開，得失也不計較，圈內圈外都稱他是“越來越年輕的快樂人”。正是有了這樣的心態，吳維康沒有患得患失，在攝影上揮灑得更加自如，表達也愈發淋漓盡致。

葉落而歸根。吳維康退休后所辦的第一件事，就是把自己的戶口遷回生育他、惦記他的老家。在義烏辦影展也成了他多年的一大夙愿。這次“藝海踏浪”——吳維康攝影藝術回鄉匯報展，挑選了他2010年下半年開出新浪博客后的成果。

《藝海踏浪》是吳維康最新的一部創作集。該書由篆刻詩人葉一葦撰寫書名，中國藝術攝影家協會主席張春貴和中國攝影網總編陳小軍題詞，中國藝術攝影家協會執行主席郭萬章作序；內容分“周游世界感言”“人體攝影雜談”“維康人生小記”“工作生活花絮”四部分，收錄700多張圖片和130多篇文章。在華川書社展覽的只是借名、只是該書的很少一部分，但仍然能給人給己以快樂和健康。同時，這也是一座城市，比如義烏，需要的現時文化事象與未來文化積淀。

因此，金華市文聯暨攝影家協會，義烏、武義兩地文藝界、教育界、新聞界有200多人參加影展開幕式。5天時間，觀眾數千。

繡川“群峰環列，云霞掩映，爛然若繡”。吳維康的攝影作品似層山深遠、嵐靄漫天，讓人心緒自由放飛。□

Find Happiness and Health in Photography

By Zhang Jiancheng

Yiwu, the biggest powerhouse of international trade in household goods in the center of Zhejiang Province, is more than a city of business. In recent years, the boom city has added cultural dimensions to its new landscape. It has parks and flourishing cultural institutions. Exhibitions are frequently held to display works by local painters and calligraphers side by side with gems and jewelry by private collectors.

In the late May 2012, Wu Weikang, an amateur photographer, held his five-day solo photography exhibition in Yiwu. Born in a village in a mountainous suburb of Yiwu in 1944, Wu graduated from a teachers college in Jinhua in 1967 and assigned to a teaching post in a primary school in remote Wuyi County. He taught 40 years there before he retired in 2006.

While teaching in Wuyi County, the schoolteacher found himself fascinated by scenic mountains, rivers, ancient villages and lovely children there. He was more than a teacher. He was also a dedicated photographer, inspired by the rural beauty of the agricultural county. After retirement, he has been able to devote more time to photographing the county. He has published eight collections of photographs he took to portray the colorful life there. These collections display prominent features of Wuyi: local scenery, spas, tea plantations as well as the new vista of the capital city of the county. His camera has captured most exciting and leisurely moments: quiet terraced fields in rainbows colors, bull fighting, dragon boat racing, national motor racing, and lotus flowers in sunshine.

Wu Weikang has traveled widely. He has visited more than 30 countries. Moreover, the 68-year-old photographer from a rural county has photographed 68 Chinese and foreign women models. As a figure photographer, Wu shows a special characteristic: his nude models pose in outdoor backgrounds and many of his models are rural women. Since 2002, he has held exhibitions of body photographs and published special collections. His nude photos have established him a national reputation as a photographer. He is a member of China Photographers Association, director of China Art Photographers Association, vice president of Wuyi County Photographers Association. His photos have won prizes at international competitions.

Though he has spent decades in remote mountains, Wu is always man of fashion. He handles digital photographs quite masterfully using computer software and he surfs the internet frequently. He operates a special website to promote his photographs and set up ties with fellow enthusiasts. Since 2010, he has been running a blog at sina.com, Chinas biggest news website and portal.

Wu Weikang explains that taking photographs helps him enjoy life and improve health. It is a way of life for his golden years. Those who know him confirm that he is more open-minded and more philosophical about life now. Friends, relatives and fellow photographers say that he is growing younger and younger.

The exhibition held in Yiwu City was a retrospect on his photographs since he started blogging at sina in the second half of 2010. These photos also go into his latest collection “Surfing on the Sea of Art”. The book title is inscribed and carved by Ye Yiwei, a poet, calligrapher and seal engraver. The President of China Art Photographers Association Zhang Chungui and Editor-in-Chief of China Photography Website Chen Xiaojun wrote inscriptions for the collection. Guo Wanzhang, the executive president of China Art Photographers Association, wrote a preface for the collection. The collection features more than 700 photographs and 130 blog texts. The photographs and essays are divided into four sections: overseas tours, nude photography, photographic biography, life and work. □
