人类命运共同体是总书记的重要理念，是解决世界纷争的发展指明方向，这是我们对总书记这个理念的一些理解。中国画讲究什么美呢？中国画不反映人类消极的情绪，不反映丑的东西，反映的都是人类社会高阳正面的一面，静美壮美，人类生活中最美好的东西，而且寄予了对未来生活的这种希望，我觉得从艺术这个角度，我觉得这种审美理念应该是放之四海而皆准的，不管是东方西方，对美的这种追求，我觉得应该都是一样的。
尤其是对中国审美这种，随着改革开放几十年发展到今天，世界对中华民族的审美观，对中国画的审美观，了解的越来越多，因为美术这种视觉传达是文明传达的一种视觉形式。我们知道文明的传达，我们能想起来三个形式：文字形式，文字记录人类文明的进程；第二，声音、语音、语言；第三个就是图像记录。图像记录，运用到我们的美术创作中就是绘画图像，而且绘画图像的记录它不只是记录生活那么简单。它在记录的过程中反映了一个民族对文化的理解，对生命的理解，对世界人和人相处的这种理解，对美的这种理解。我觉得美术的角度，从视觉、艺术的角度，阐述总书记的这种观念，我觉得那是一个非常重要的形式，很多艺术形象都是反映生活中很普通的一种人的形象，而这种形象是以艺术的形式留存在我们的心间了。很多的，父亲的形象、丰收的老农拾谷穗的形象，种种的形象都是直接反映人民具体的生活中的有血有肉的形象，用艺术形式把它记录下来，这是第一个。
第二个，用艺术作品反映人民群众喜爱的东西，怎么理解这个东西？艺术家还要把最好的东西贡献给人民，除了大家喜欢能接受的东西以外，还要把这个时代最精华的东西，这个时代最高阳的东西，最好的东西拿出来，最好的精神食粮，引导人民的审美。每一个人的审美，情绪和时代精神，和这个时代的脉搏频率一致，我觉得这是艺术家更重要的一个历史使命。以百花争艳反映时代情感，以百花争艳反映人民情怀，以百花争艳沟通大家的心理和精神，共筑人类命运共同体！
The community with a shared future for mankind is an important concept put forward by General Secretary, pointing out the direction for addressing global disputes. This is our understanding of this concept proposed by General Secretary. What kind of beauty does Chinese painting uphold? Chinese painting does not reflect negative human emotions or ugly things; instead, it captures all the vibrant and positive aspects of human society—serene grace and magnificent grandeur, the most wonderful things in human life, and it embodies hopes for future life. From an artistic perspective, I believe this aesthetic philosophy should be universally applicable. Whether in the East or the West, the pursuit of beauty is inherently the same.
Especially regarding Chinese aesthetics, with decades of development since the reform and opening-up, the world has come to understand more and more deeply the aesthetic values of the Chinese nation and of Chinese painting. For art, as a form of visual communication, serves as a visual vehicle for conveying civilization. We know that when it comes to the transmission of civilization, three forms come to mind: first, the written form, which records the progress of human civilization; second, sound, voice, and language; third, image recording. Image recording, when applied to our artistic creation, takes the form of painted imagery. Moreover, the recording through painted imagery is far more than a simple documentation of life. In the process of recording, it reflects a nation's understanding of culture, of life, of how people relate to one another in the world, and of beauty. I believe that elaborating on General Secretary's concept from the perspective of fine arts—from a visual and artistic angle—is an extremely important approach. Many artistic images depict the figures of ordinary people in life, and such images remain etched in our hearts through art. There are many such images: the image of a father, the image of an elderly farmer gathering stray ears of grain amid a bumper harvest. All these images directly reflect the vivid, flesh-and-blood figures in the concrete lives of the people, preserved through art. This is the first point.
Second, how should we understand the idea of using artworks to reflect what the people love? Artists should also contribute the finest things to the people. Beyond what people enjoy and can embrace, they should present the most essential, the most uplifting, and the best elements of the era—the finest spiritual nourishment—to guide the people's aesthetic appreciation. It is a more important historical mission for artists that everyone's aesthetic tastes, emotions, and the spirit of the times vibrate in harmony with the pulse of the era. Let the a hundred flowers in full bloom mirror the emotions of the era, reflect the sentiments of the people, connect everyone's hearts and spirits, and jointly build a community with a shared future for mankind!
