Qian Xuantong
As we all know, Chinese characters pay more attention to their practicality before becoming an independent calligraphic art. However, with the development of the art of calligraphy (Chinese characters), its attributes have also shown diversity. One is that words serve things, or that words are written for the sake of writing, and the other is that words are affectionate.
The former is what is usually called practicality. That is, when writing, I think about things and work, and use words to serve things and work. For example, when taking notes during a meeting, I only want to write down the spirit of the meeting, as comprehensive and accurate as possible, and I don't consider what kind of writing it is, as long as I know it. Of course, it is not a scribble, which is the most reflective of the writer's writing ability, which is a natural reaction. Therefore, when we look at the calligraphy letters and rulers of the ancients, they are often more calm and elegant than their inscriptions or Legal Treatises, and they can better reflect their true emotions. But in this category, whether it can be called calligraphy or not, or those who should be called calligraphy, is a matter of opinion.
As for the latter situation, it is easy to understand, such as the famous "Orchid Pavilion Preface", "Chibi Fu", "Zhang HaohaoShi", etc., which are both works of literature and calligraphy. What the delegates today want to share is the calligraphy works of Mr. Qian Xuantong, a famous thinker and advocate of the new cultural movement in modern times. In these calligraphy works, there is no shortage of handwriting of letters, especially his mastery of the calligraphy of the North Stele can be described as profound, and his use of pens is shocking and long, and the strange breath is thin. Let's enjoy his work together-
