邓箭今是中国新写实油画的中坚人物。邓箭今的画面人物有着鲜明的主观性，他的各类人物常常瞪着一双压迫观众的神经质的眼睛，他的没有构图中心或多中心的画面则具有形式上的爆炸力。

    摘自---彭德《十二信徒西游序》1995年

　　Deng Jianjin is the backbone of the Chinese neo-realism of oil painting. The figures in Deng Jianjin’s paintings are with obvious subjectivity. His various figures always open a pair of nervous eyes oppressing the audiences. His pictures without center or with plural centers have the explosive power on form.
