通过美术欣赏教学,促使学生掌握美术欣赏的基本方法,以不断提高欣赏能力和审美水平,从而开阔艺术视野、陶冶高尚情操,使之树立正确的审美观,这是学生个性发展和素质提高的需要,也是美育的重要目的之一。然而,在目前欣赏教学中,一般对于作品本身的欣赏讲得多,欣赏方法往往讲得少甚至根本不涉及,这无疑是提高学生欣赏能力的一大缺憾。 美术欣赏的方法有多种,但在提高欣赏能力方面,当以比较欣赏法更为行之有效,其欣赏过程在较大程度上就包含了诸如“直观”“分析”等方法在内,它本身就是一种综合性的欣赏方法。况且,比较欣赏由于对欣赏对象相关现象的比较,而使欣赏本身具有特别的新意和深度。对于这一点,美国的亨利·雷马克言之有理:“‘外部’的比较分析对于全面有效地理解‘内部’的 Through art appreciation teaching, students are encouraged to master the basic methods of art appreciation, so as to continuously improve their appreciation ability and aesthetic level, so as to broaden their artistic vision and cultivate their noble sentiments, so as to establish a correct aesthetic outlook. This is a requirement for the development of students’ individuality and quality. It is also one of the important purposes of aesthetic education. However, in the current appreciation of teaching, the appreciation of the work itself is generally much more, appreciation methods are often less or even not involved, which is undoubtedly a major drawback to improve students’ ability to appreciate. There are many ways to appreciate art, but when it comes to improving appreciation, when the comparative appreciation method is more effective, the appreciation process includes, to a large extent, methods such as “intuitive” and “analysis”. It is a comprehensive method of appreciation. Moreover, because of the comparison of the phenomenon of appreciation of the objects, the appreciation of the appreciation of the subject has a special new meaning and depth. For this, Henry Lemarck of the United States made a point: "Comparative analysis of the ’outside’ is a comprehensive and effective understanding of ’inner’.
