As the2024Summer Olympics kicks off in Paris,many sports enthusiasts have shifted their focus to the French capital.In China,one local artist has been portraying a range of Olympic sports through the lens of traditional Chinese painting,capturing the spirit of the Olympics.当2024年巴黎奥运会进行得如火如荼之时，许多体育爱好者将目光转移到了法国首都。在中国，一位艺术家一直在通过传统中国画的视角描绘奥林匹克运动，捕捉奥运精神。
From hurdler Liu Xiang to speed skating champion Zhang Hong to sprinter Usain Bolt,all the spectacular moments of the Olympic Games are captured in traditional Chinese paintings by artist Fan Yang.Through his efforts,the painter says that he has tried to break the stereotypes about traditional Chinese painting."I was trying to demonstrate that traditional Chinese painting is about more than a few still life subjects,such as flowers and plants.Our traditional way of painting can also portray contemporary life and today's Olympic sports.Chinese painting indeed has a powerful vitality,which remains strong today,"said Fan.跨栏运动员刘翔、速度滑冰冠军张虹、短跑运动员尤塞恩·博尔特……画家范扬表示，他试图通过这一努力打破对中国传统绘画的一些刻板印象。他说：“中国画家不仅仅是能画梅兰竹菊，画纸上来种树植山。也能表现当代的生活，也能表现当代的奥林匹克体育运动。中国画它确确实实具有强大的生命力，在现在还是具有。”As a major innovator in Chinese painting,Fan Yang has paid close attention to contemporary history,especially the Olympic Movement.By depicting Chinese and foreign sports figures in his works,he has formed a distinctive style embodying the spirit of modern sports through traditional Chinese painting.作为国画的一位重要创新者，范扬一直关注当代历史，尤其是奥林匹克运动。通过在作品中描绘中外体育人物，他形成了一种独特的风格，以中国传统绘画体现现代体育精神。
