艺术特色
孙家钵创作木雕作品，审美是建立在中国传统文化审美中诗学的“比”，“兴”方法之上，建立在中国写意绘画“似与不似之间”的标准上，建立在福州木雕“开大荒”的方法上。
孙家钵是中国雕塑家中不多的，几乎没有淌过“装饰性抽象雕塑”的“水”的艺术家之一。其实他并非不懂抽象。他在1986年就去过约旦，90年代也在巴黎的美院画室呆过。他是在坚持自己的立场。他的立场即：把握木雕造型上的“似与不似之间”的“度”。正是这个“度”被钱绍武，邵大箴等称之为“写意雕塑”(当然，这有点关起门来续写中国美术史的意思)。
个人生活
文化大革命，改变了几代人的命运。也改变了孙家钵的命运。
孙家钵在远离北京的福建省度过了文革期间的十几年，其中有五年是呆在福建工艺美术研究所。在文革及文革之前的中国文化艺术系统里，所谓工艺美术实际上包括了地方上流传着的所有的民间艺术种类。作为学雕塑出来的孙家钵，在这个研究所里，跑遍了几乎所有的福州，泉州一带的木雕工艺品厂。1978年，孙家波从福建回到北京的母校——中央美院读研究生班的时候，他的行囊中多了一把斧子。
这斧子是福建木雕师傅打木雕时开大荒所用。在任何一家木雕厂里，开大荒是第一道，也是最重要的一道工序，开大荒的师傅就是经验最多，技术最高明的老师傅。好的师傅开大荒，会合理利用木料的尺寸形状和木头的纹理走向，做到省料又结实，几斧子劈下去，木雕人物或动物、植物的形象，虽眉眼手足衣饰细节未具，精气神却已经呼之欲出。再往下一个工序，刻画手足眉眼细节的，反而是年轻一些，功夫差一些的师傅。可以说，孙家钵从美术学院毕业后，是福建的老木雕师傅给他另外补上了一堂雕塑造形基本功的课。这一课在学院里是学不到的。
1980年孙家钵研究生班的毕业作品，木雕创作“屈原”被中国美术馆收藏。这把并不起眼的斧子，顶面是正锐三角形，侧面几乎呈正方形，乌青锋利而又简单纯朴，从那时起就成为孙家钵打开雕塑艺术之门的钥匙。同时，借助这把斧子，孙家钵把自己已经被改变了的命运，再改变一次并掌握在自己的手中。
从此后，一件件木雕从斧头下诞生。“半截子美展”上，孙家钵参展的作品已经是成了系列的“老北京”木雕。1985年，孙家钵分到了王府井老美院留学生楼10层上的一间12平米的工作室，其间斧凿落在木头上的“邦、邦”声就没有中断过。
1997年，在美院搬迁到酒仙桥二厂之后，当时雕塑系的通道画廊里，举办了孙家钵的个人木雕作品展。展出的作品除了“老北京系列”，又有了“大姑娘系列”。
2000年，孙家钵在下苑建起了自己更大的工作室。老北京四合院的大拆迁，给孙家钵提供了源源不断的木料。工作室里的“邦、邦”声，持久地回响着。

2 life are vivid
The Great Cultural Revolution, changed the destiny of a few acting people. Also changed Sun Jiabo's destiny.
Sun Jiabo spent Culture Revolution ten years during in the Fujian Province that is far from Beijing, having among them is 5 years to stay in institute of Fujian arts and crafts. In the system of Chinese culture art before Culture Revolution and Culture Revolution, alleged arts and crafts included what circulating on the place actually all folk art are phyletic. As the Sun Jiabo that learns sculpture to come out, in this institute, went around almost all Fuzhou, the woodcarving handicraft that fontal city takes factory. 1978, the alma mater that Home Sun wave returns Beijing from Fujian -- when the beautiful courtyard central reads graduate student class, his travelling bag is much mediumer an ax.
This ax is Fujian woodcarving master when opening woodcarving, place of old be out of practice is used. In factories of any a woodcarving, opening old be out of practice is the first, also be a the most important working procedure, the master that opens old be out of practice is experience most, the experienced worker with the most brillant technology. Good master opens old be out of practice, assemble manage uses the grain of the size shape of timber and wood to move toward, accomplish province makings to bear fruit again, a few ax are broken off go down, figure of woodcarving character or animal, floral, although garment of eyebrow eye brothers acts the role of detail to was not provided, essence of life enrages a god however already be vividly portrayed. Go to again next working procedure, of detail of eye of depict brothers eyebrow, it is a few younger instead, kongfu needs the master worker of a few. Can say, after Sun Jiabo graduates from the academy of fine arts, the old woodcarving master that is Fujian fills additionally to him attended a class of sculpture shaping basic skill. This one lesson is learning to be less than in the institute.
1980 Sun Jiabo the graduate work of graduate student class, woodcarving is created " Qu Yuan " be collected by Chinese art gallery. This does not have the axe of the eye, end face is acute triangle, flank shows a square almost, black blueness is sharp and simple and honest, thenceforth rises to become Sun Jiabo to open the key of the door of sculptural. In the meantime, have the aid of this ax, the destiny that Sun Jiabo had been changed him, be changed again and master in oneself hand.
From after this, woodcarving falls from ax be born. "Half child the United States is exhibited " on, the work that ginseng of Home Sun earthen bowl exhibits has been became series " old Beijing " woodcarving. 1985, home Sun earthen bowl divided well of king government office student studying abroad of old beautiful courtyard building a when go up 10 layers 12 atelier of smooth rice, meantime axe authentic falls on wood " state, state " sound had not been interrupted.
