论坛内容简介
工作坊将在拜占庭和中国的两个特定区域背景下，比较两大世界宗教中基督教和佛教的圣像建构的实践。这两种宗教都非常有效地利用了图像来传达他们的信息；同时两者也都成功地在当地固有的绘画传统中确立起了自己的宗教圣像。中国和拜占庭的本土视觉传统都并未认可对于至高无上的存在进行描绘，因此研讨会将探讨两种宗教分别采用了何种策略来建构并且合法化他们的圣像。同时研讨会也将关注两种宗教对于本土绘画传统的利用以及区别，进而追溯在宗教艺术表现确立之前的不同阶段的发展。
The workshop will compare the practices of visualising the divine in two major world religions within two particular regional contexts: Christianity in Byzantium and Buddhism in China. Both religions were particularly successful in employing visual agents in conveying their messages; both succeeded in establishing their imagery amongst pre-existing pictorial traditions in the local context. In both cases, the pre-existing visual traditions did not generally sanction the depiction of the supreme beings. The workshop will investigate the strategies adopted towards the visualisation of the divine, and inquire into their utilisation of, as well as differentiation from established practices. It will trace the stages leading to the establishment of a pictorial convention in the visual presentation of the religions.
