再读画家陈卫东
      一笑一尘缘，一念一清静！……
      精神的超脱与艺术的表现不仅仅是一些笔墨与符号，而是消融于山川、寄情于尘外的执着。谁能在喧嚣的浮燥中平静如一汪秋水，在云卷云舒中靜谧如一盏清茶？
      陈卫东，板桥书画院副院长，潜心于禅意画已久。深厚的造型功底与特立独行的“淡墨枯笔法”将视野拓展到一个纤尘不染的境界！
      夙兴夜寐的求索中，一幅幅凝重的肯定，无疑是震撼心灵的点与线。憨实的喜怒笑骂中，仿佛让人一下子便坠入禅宗的深意，去感受另一种脱胎换骨 、化茧成蝶的虛无飘渺。接受身心的洗礼，沉静于忘我的空灵......
      也许，初读陈卫东的作品，不必探究人物结构的比例关系，更不能用常规的眼光去审视其表达的神韵。单是惜墨如金、点到为止的技法，就会把淡泊名利的无为之境引喻到极致。
      禅的境界如茶，在淡雅中升华；在无形中具象； 在忘我中顿悟；在简单中繁盛；在厚重中空灵；在变幻中守真……
      多少年的传统文化中蕴含了万宗归一的哲理，这在陈卫东的禅意画中表现的淋漓尽致。就像汉字中的“一”，既是最小的数字，也是最大的数字，大到多大？，“一统天下”！
      从烂醉如泥的钟馗到自在悠闲的布袋；从静观棋局的鹤发到生火煮茶的童顔......寥寥数笔，神形皆备，清新自然，意味深长。既已触及无限的暇思，何需浓墨重彩繁资？
其实，审美的不破之理：由繁至简。通俗地讲，简单就是美！不是一味地、毫无根据地追奉所谓的“极简主义”。因为"简约”不通于“简单”。只有达到“大象无形、大音希声”的境界，才是禅意画的精髓。 
      一花一世界，一叶一菩提
忘却自我，在淡墨枯笔法的禅意中追求厚重与空灵的统一。
