摘要： 在艺术批评领域，视觉艺术批评占据中心位置，艺术批评话语往往围绕视觉性主题展开。主要表现在两方面：一是观看与阐释的关系，探讨从“观看”到“说出”的内在转换机制。二是看与被看的关系，揭示视觉活动如何促成了主体自我意识的形成和主体间性的显现。艺术批评的传达无法回避如何将视觉对象转译为话语表述的问题，此问题又以两个相连层面的形式出现，一是思想的图像化，二是图像的语言化。其结果是，思想借助图像通过隐喻的转换在语言符号层面上转化为阐释性话语。视觉在人的诸感觉能力中的突出地位一直以来受到强调，视觉经验成为整理和理解人的其他经验的标尺，视觉性的话语表述因此而成为标准的表述模式。当视觉性的重要地位无限放大，以至于遮蔽和忽视了人的其他感觉能力和与之相应的表述逻辑的时候，就会形成视觉中心主义，它对于我们力图全面综合地进行艺术经验的转换和批评话语的表达有害无益。因此，用听觉等其他人类感觉以平衡与中和视觉的中心地位，将会使人的全部感受力得到全面唤醒和发展。

Abstract: Visual art criticism is the center of art criticism, whose discourse often develops around visual themes, as is manifested in the two respects, namely, the relationship between seeing and interpretation regarding the transformation from "seeing" to "speaking out", and that between seeing and being seen revealing the contribution of visual activities to shaping the subject' self-consciousness and showing intersubjectivity. The conversion of visual objects into verbal expressions is an inevitable issue in discourse of art criticism, and it appears in two connected patterns, namely, the visualization of ideas and the verbalization of visual image. The result is that ideas, when visualized, are transformed into interpretative discourse through the conversion of metaphor at the level of linguistic symbols. Vision has been constantly emphasized and visual experience has become the gauge to integrate and understand other human experiences, and visual discourse has thus become a standard mode of representation. However, visual-centrism may occur if the significance of vision is unduly stressed as to overshadow other human senses and their relevant expression logics, and this will hinder our endeavor to realize the conversion of artistic experiences and the expression of critical discourse. Therefore, all human perceptions can be awakened and developed if vision can be balanced with other senses like hearing.

Key words: discourse, metaphor, visuality, visual-centrism
