胡若思，中国美术家协会会员，上海文史馆馆员。擅山水画，尤喜画黄山，先后20次登黄山，居山作画，满意之作，以“遐思”题署。作品《桂林山水》藏于中国美术馆，《黄山松云图》藏于江苏省博物馆，《万古长青图》陈列于人民大会堂，《万壑松风图》陈列于中南海紫光阁。历任上海戏剧学院美术系教授、上海中国画院画师。作品有《黄山天都》、《桂林山水》、《献马图》、《蓬莱三岛》等。
其父长于古书画鉴赏，自幼受其父薰陶。9岁入“大风堂”，拜张大千为师，14岁随师东渡日本，举办童年个人画展。15岁之作《匡庐瀑布》参加比利时世界博览会获金奖。1954年任上海华东美术家协会创作干部，自1955年上海国画院成立后任画师，1957年兼任上海戏剧学院教授，兼任国画教研组组长。
然不同的画家描绘桂林山水，各有不同的方式和特点。李可染以其深厚的功力，使桂林的山愈显深重，水愈显沉静；白雪石笔下的桂林山水，清秀可掬，使人流连忘返。而胡若思的这幅《桂林山水》，则从民间美术和装饰绘画中汲取营养，用工整细致的笔法描绘出桂林山水风貌，在典雅清丽的设色中呈现出装饰化的特点和精致的笔墨情趣。胡若思以黄山为表现题材的系列作品，普遍带有一种舒朗的快意。此图也是表现晴朗的黄山。群山在雾中隐现，而雾淡薄轻盈，倍显清丽。图中近山施墨，墨重而少勾勒，远山用笔，一丝不苟作出山之筋络，石之转折，再敷以淡彩，使冷色中带有暖色。从这种施墨设色布局方式来看，胡若思的山水画创作已不是纯粹的传统表现手法，显然接受了一些外来因素的影响，从而使山之境界更广，气势更大。从近百幅绘作来看，胡若思基本承袭了张大千的笔法与神韵，工笔、写意、青绿、泼墨无所不精，堪称罕见的多面手，而其中又以工笔和写意巧妙的融合之法，最为让人称奇。
胡若思先生是当代中国画坛山水大家，尽管他于上世纪80年代末移居加拿大后，在国内宣传日少，音讯渐稀，但他的中国画艺术、连同他富有魅力的艺术人生，却始终是令关注者难以忘却的。
胡若思字遐思，号琴人，1916年生于上海，2004年卒于加拿大多伦多。自9岁从张大千先生习绘事以来一生笔耕不辍，艺术生涯近八十年之久。其父精鉴赏、富收藏，先生幼承庭训，天资早慧。14岁即东渡日本举办童年个人画展，一时轰动东瀛，有“鬼才”、“神童”之誉。15岁其作品《匡庐瀑布图》荣获比利时世界博览会金奖，艺林传为佳话。此后游历名山大川，将烟云丘壑罗纳心胸，一朝发于毫端，顿觉满纸生辉。他于山水、花鸟、人物、走兽、界画无一不能，工笔、写意、青绿、浅绛、泼墨、泼彩无一不精，是现代海上画坛罕见的多面手。中年以来，尤长于绘画黄山奇景，他以传统中国山水画笔墨为基础，在色彩、水墨、结构、章法乃至光影的处理上都有着独到见解，由此开创了当代“黄山画派”新格调。他笔下的山水也以黄山景致为代表，水墨氤氲，墨彩幻化，气象恢弘，世称“南胡风韵”。这一美誉是对胡若思先生艺术成就的肯定。若思先生在艺术上勇于探索的精神，以及为中国山水画艺术的继承和发展所作出的可贵贡献，的确是值得人们永久纪念的。任何一位卓有成就的中国画大师，都高度重视对传统技法的继承、掌握和锤炼。胡若思先生精湛的传统功力更是为知者所称道。他力主中国画须从唐宋入手，取法乎上，攻之弥深。他由宋元古法中汲取精华，奠定根基，继而渐趋佳境，直至自成一家的艺术发展轨迹。当我们观赏着胡若思先生的山水时，不由得为他独具表现力的笔墨技法和瑰丽典雅的笔墨情趣所陶醉、所折服。
1989年以来，胡若思先生携书画走天涯，先后在加拿大、欧洲、美国、日本及东南亚各国举办个人画展，为中国画艺术在海外赢得了极高的声誉。相反，由于久居海外，致使国内对“南胡风韵”日渐生疏淡漠起来。
为使人们能够全面的了解欣赏胡若思的艺术风格，公正的评价他的艺术成就，我公司展出胡若思先生的若干画作。

If moustache is thought of, chinese artist academician, house of Shanghai Rearch Institute of Culture and History member. Landscape painting of arrogate to oneself, you Xi draws Huang Shan, ascend Huang Shan 20 times early or late, house hill makes a picture, make approvingly, with " far is thought of " title office. Work " Guilin landscape " hide at Chinese art gallery, " yellow Shan Songyun pursues " Tibet visits museum at Jiangsu, " remain fresh forever pursues " hall of congress of old rank people, " loose wind of 10 thousand big pool pursues " cabinet of violet light of the Nanhai in old rank. Having successively held the posts of art of Shanghai Thespian institute is painter of imperial art academy of China of professor, Shanghai. Work has " yellow mountain sky " , " Guilin landscape " , " display Ma Tu " , " a fabled abode of immortals 3 islands " etc.
Its father grows to draw appreciate at ancient books, from a child suffers its father edification. 9 revenue " fresh gale hall " , do obeisance to magnify 1000 for division, 14 years old take the sea-voyage eastward along with division Japan, hold childhood individual art exhibition. 15 years old make " Kuang Lu chute " attend Belgian world exposition to win a gold prize. Held the post of association of home of Shanghai Hua Dongmei art to produce a cadre 1954, from 1955 courtyard of Shanghai traditional Chinese painting establishs successor painter, held professor of Shanghai Thespian college part-time 1957, hold group leader of teaching and research group of traditional Chinese painting part-time.
The painter that differs like that depicts Guilin water from a mountain, each have different kind and characteristic. Li Ke is caught with its deep work force, make the hill of Guilin is shown more very grave, water is shown more calm; The Guilin landscape of Bai Xueshi the wording and purpose of what one writes, comely but Ju, make stream of people forgets to return repeatedly. And of Hu Resai this " Guilin landscape " , nutrition of the derive in drawing with adornment from civilian art, with carefully and nearly meticulous calligraphy or drawing represents a Guilin landscape view, the characteristic that gives adornment to change and delicate writing interest present in the fill in colors on a sketch of elegant Qing Li. If moustache considers the series work that is expressional subject matter with Huang Shan, what contain a kind of Shu Lang generally is pleased. This graph also is the Huang Shan with fine expression. Group hill shows in the concealed in mist, and mist is thin and lightsome, times show Qing Li. Close hill uses Chinese ink in the graph, draw the outline of Chinese ink is heavy and less, far hill uses a pen, make the muscle sth resembling a net of hill fastidiously, the turn of stone, again apply with light color, make warm color is contained in cool color. From the point of means of composition of this kind of color that use Chinese ink, landscape painting creation of Hu Resai already was not real traditional expression skill, accepted the impact of a few ab extra elements apparently, make the state of hill wider thereby, imposing manner is bigger. Make from nearly 100 draw in light of, if moustache considers basic follow magnify the calligraphy or drawing of 1000 and verve, traditional Chinese realistic painting characterized by fine brushwork and close attention to detail, enjoyable, viridescence, splash-ink does not have place not essence of life, can weighs infrequent generalist, and mix with traditional Chinese realistic painting characterized by fine brushwork and close attention to detail again among them enjoyable and clever shirt-sleeve way, make person strange most.
Mr Hu Resai is landscape of altar of contemporary China picture everybody, although he at going up century 80 time end is emigrant after Canada, day is publicized in home little, phonic message gradually rare, but he is full of his Chinese painting art, along with the artistic life of glamour, however from beginning to end the person that make pay close attention to is forgotten hard.
Be like Sai Zixia to think of why, person of date musical instrument, was born at Shanghai 1916, 2004 soldier at Canadian Toronto. From magnify from 9 years old 1000 gentlemen review lifetime pen does not stop n cultivated land since paint job, artistic career is close 80 years long. Appreciate of its father essence, rich collect, gentleman young Cheng Tingxun, talent is early intelligent. 14 years old take the sea-voyage eastward namely Japan holds childhood individual art exhibition, temporarily resounding Dong Ying, have " wizard " , " prodigy " praise. 15 years old of its work " the chute that correct cottage pursues " have the honor to win gold prize of Belgian world exposition, art circles is passed for a much-told story. After this is itinerary famous mountains and great rivers, breadth of mind of Luo Na of big pool of smoke cloud grave, hair of in one day is carried at fine long hair, become aware full paper is unripe suddenly brightness. He is not had at picture of landscape, painting of flowers and birds in traditional Chinese style, character, beasts, bound one cannot, traditional Chinese realistic painting characterized by fine brushwork and close attention to detail, enjoyable, viridescence, shallow crimson, splash-ink, spill colour to not have one not essence of life, it is the generalist with rare a raised lot of land for planting flowers of contemporary and maritime picture. Middleaged since, grow to fizzle out at brushwork especially hill wonderful view, he is a foundation with writing of traditional China landscape painting, there is original opinion on the processing of Chinese ink of colour, water, structure, art of composition and even smooth shadow, initiated from this contemporary " Huang Shan draws a clique " new style. The landscape of his the wording and purpose of what one writes also is a delegate with yellow hill scene, water Chinese ink is dense, mo Caihuan is changed, atmosphere extensive great, the life says " charm of another name for erhu " . This one beauty praise the affirmation that is artistic to Mr Hu Resai achievement. If think the mind that gentleman artistically is brave in to explore, and the accede and develops place to make commendable contribution that is art of Chinese landscape painting, it is to be worth people really of permanent souvenir. An any eminent China draw a Great Master, what take pair of traditional ability laws seriously highly is successive, master and hammer into shape. Mr Hu Resai's consummate traditional work force is to be commend of place of the person that know more. His force advocate Chinese picture must be entered from Tang Song hand, take as one's model go up, the cover that attack is deep. Elite of derive of Gu Fazhong of his You Songyuan, lay foundation, then gradually hasten the most pleasant stage, till the art of be unique in one's style develops orbit. When the landscape that viewing and admire Mr Hu Resai when us, the writing ability law that can'ts help providing expressional power alone for him and the writing appeal place with elegant magnificent are intoxicated, be convinced.
Since 1989, if moustache thinks of a gentleman to carry painting and calligraphy to take the end of the world, hold individual art exhibition in Canada, Europe, United States, Japan and southeast Asia each country early or late, for Chinese picture artistic overseas gained extremely tall reputation. Contrary, as a result of long house is abroad, cause home to be opposite " charm of another name for erhu " not close with each passing day and dim rise.
Admire artistic color of Hu Resai to make people can understand in the round, the just art that evaluates him is accomplished, my company exhibits to if consider a certain number of pictures of the gentleman,be made why.
