孫家勤(1930-2010),字野耘,山東省泰安縣人,出生於遼寧省大連市,民國五省連帥孫傳芳將軍少子,台灣水墨畫家。1937年即與母親周佩馨同至「湖社畫會」習畫,1944年移居北京從陳林齋學習人物,1947年入輔仁大學美術系。大陸淪陷經港來台,1951年進入師大藝術系,從黃君璧學山水、金勤伯學花鳥、林玉山學走獸蟲鳥。畢業後,留校任講師教授國畫歷九年,1953年與喻仲林、胡念祖合組「麗水精舍」。三人舉行聯展時,孫寫人物,胡作山水,喻畫花鳥,「畫壇三傑」美譽因不脛而走。1964年,為精進畫藝之故,後赴巴西從遊於張大千八德園,入大風堂門下勤習三年。擔任聖保羅大學教授,為提振中華文化故創立中文系,受巴西總統頒贈爵士勳章,以表彰其功勞。1994年退休返國,任教於師大、文大。2010年罹患退伍軍人症,後不治離世。
孫家勤受張大千晚年啟發甚多,畫風特進。尤其是八德園從遊其間,在大千指導下遍臨敦煌石窟壁畫稿本、大風堂所藏宋元山水巨跡,畫藝大進。大千讚賞說:「晚得此材,吾門當大」,可見期待甚高。一如本作所見,孫氏一生創作,致力於融合傳統北派工筆及大千之潑墨潑彩,寓纖細於雄渾之中,孕樸拙於精巧之外,自出機杼,饒富新意。旅美藝術史學者高木森故稱其畫說:「古意新韻,豪情彩彰」,實良有以也。(506字)
Sun Jia-Qin (1930-2010), courtesy name Yeyun, was born in Dalian, Liaoning Province, but hailed from Tai'an County, Shandong Province. He was the youngest son of General Sun Chuang-Fang, one of the Five Province Coalition Warlords during the Republic of China era. Sun Jia-Qin was a Taiwanese ink painter. In 1937, he began learning painting with his mother Zhou Pei-Xin at the "Hu She Painting Club." In 1944, he moved to Beijing to study figure painting under Chen Lin-Zhai. In 1947, he enrolled in the Fine Arts Department at Fu Jen Catholic University. Due to the fall of mainland China to the communists, he relocated to Taiwan via Hong Kong. In 1951, he entered the Art Department of National Taiwan Normal University, where he studied landscape painting under Huang Jun-Bi, bird-and-flower painting under Jin Qin-Bo, and animals and insects painting under Lin Yu-Shan. After graduating, he remained at the university as a lecturer, teaching traditional Chinese painting for nine years. In 1953, he co-founded the "Li Shui Jingshe (abode)" art group with Yu Zhong-Lin and Hu Nian-Zu. During joint exhibitions, Sun focused on figures, Hu painted landscapes, and Yu depicted flowers and birds. Their combined mastery earned them the reputation of the "Three Masters of the Art World." In 1964, in order to refine his artistic skills, Sun traveled to Brazil to study under Zhang Da-Qian at the Eight Virtues Garden and trained under the Big Wind Hall for three years. He became a professor at the University of São Paulo, where he established the Chinese Department to promote Chinese culture. He was honored with a knighthood by the Brazilian President in recognition of his contributions. Sun retired and returned to Taiwan in 1994, teaching at National Taiwan Normal University and Chinese Culture University. In 2010, Sun Jia-Qin was diagnosed with a veteran's disease and unfortunately passed away.
He was greatly influenced by Zhang Da-Qian in his later years, which significantly advanced his artistic style. His visits to the Eight Virtues Garden and guidance from Zhang Da-Qian led him to study Dunhuang Cave mural manuscripts and the monumental Song and Yuan landscape paintings at Big Wind Hall, resulting in remarkable progress. Zhang Da-Qian praised him, saying, "Late in receiving this talent, our school shall flourish," indicating high expectations for Sun Jia-Qin's work. As seen in his works, Sun Jia-Qin dedicated his life to integrating the meticulous brushwork of the Northern School with Zhang Da-Qian's splashed ink and colors. His creations balanced delicacy within grandeur, and simplicity within sophistication, showcasing originality and abundant novelty. The art historian Gao Mo-Sen, who resided in the United States, once commented on his paintings as having "ancient sentiment and new melodies, with vibrant colors and bold spirit," which is indeed a fitting appraisal.
