Eastern Evil, Western Poison, Southern Emperor, Northern Qi, and Zhongshentong are the 5 world-class masters in Jin Yong's novels.
Did you know that there are also "5 Donkey Kongs" in the calligraphy world today?
They are: East Chaos, West Blindness, South Roar, North Independence, and Middle Hu Shooting!
Although these 5 have no Gestapo divine skills, in terms of calligraphy creativity, 1 is more than 1 strange.
Eastern Chaos: Wang Dongling
Wang Dongling is a professor of calligraphy at the China Academy of Art, which is located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, so Ling Ge is the Eastern King Kong.
The so-called "chaos" refers to the calligraphy chaos of Ling Ge.
His calligraphic lines are intertwined, layered on top of each other, like weaving baskets, and like a mess, you have me, I have you.
Although the work is still based on Chinese characters, the content written is no longer recognizable by anyone except Ling Ge himself.
He also combined this calligraphy with dance and music to create "dance on the tip of the pen" and "music on the tip of the pen", which led the way.
Later, inspired by Han Jian, this calligraphy was combined with bamboo, and the calligraphy was returned to the basics. In contrast, Han Jian is strung together piece by piece, while he directly uses the whole bamboo.
When people began to criticize his calligraphy, he said that his calligraphy was not "messy", but could not be understood by outsiders.
The president of the hospital also justified his name: "chaos" is the "chaos" of chaotic rocks and clouds, not the "chaos" of chaos.
Therefore, the title of "Eastern Chaos" is none other than Lingge.
Westblind: Zhang Qiang
Zhang Qiang is the head and professor of the art department of the Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts, which is located in Chongqing, so Qiang Ge is the western King Kong.
The so-called "blindness" refers to the fact that when Qiang Brother writes without looking, he either closes his eyes, blindfolds his eyes, or turns his head back.
Under such creative conditions, his works, the black place is like a splashed ink painting, and the white place seems to be ungraphed;
A piece of paper is either fully coated, a corner, or simply coated onto the felt.
Brother Qiang is different from Brother Ling, who at least recognizes the words of Brother Ling, while Brother Qiang's words himself (after opening his eyes) may not recognize them.
Qiang Ge also combined this calligraphy with the woman's body, wrapped rice paper on the woman's body, and then wrote on it.
Later, somehow, the woman simply did not wear clothes and let him write directly on the skin, which may be a shortage of funds and no money to buy rice paper, or it may be another innovation.
Brother Qiang said that no matter what he wrote on it, he would not look with his eyes, and sometimes blindfolded directly to avoid embarrassment, just to pursue pure writing and pure art.
Therefore, the title of "West Blind" is none other than Qiang ge.
Nan Roar: Zeng Xiang
Although Zeng Xiang is in Beijing, his ancestral home is in Hubei, so Xiang Ge is the southern King Kong.
The so-called "roar" refers to Xiang Ge's yelling when he writes.
Xiang Ge likes to write large characters, and will use a large rice paper and brush every time he creates, sometimes the brush is not enough to replace it with a mop, and the ink will generally be filled with a bucket or a large basin.
Multiple pieces of rice paper were spliced on the ground, and several people were helping on the side, which was called a hilarity.
As long as the brush falls on the paper, Xiang Ge will "vomit! "Ah!" "Yikes!" And the sound is very loud, it seems to have a feeling of throat tearing, which is very frightening.
I don't know if the works that came out of the roar were good or bad, but this way undoubtedly demonstrated a way for the majority of calligraphers to decompress:
When you're stressed, just yell while you're writing to uncompress.
However, this method is not suitable for families with children, and it will scare off the soul, so use it with caution.
With roaring to strengthen courage, roaring to cheer, roaring to decompress, XiangGe is unique.
Therefore, the title of "South Roar" is none other than Xiang Ge.
Beidu: Xu Bing
Xu Bing is the vice president, professor and doctoral supervisor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, which is located in Beijing, so BingGe is the northern King Kong.
The so-called "independence" refers to the English calligraphy created by Bing Ge, which is unique in heaven and earth, in ancient times and in the present.
English calligraphy? Yes, you read that right.
It is a calligraphy that takes Hanyu Pinyin and English words as the carrier, divides and then recombines them, and then expresses them in the form of Chinese character calligraphy.
Bingge's English calligraphy is a new type of character system.
At first glance, it looks like Chinese characters, but when you look closely, it is a "character" composed of multiple letters, and it is basically impossible to read.
To this end, Bing Ge also compiled a character notation, that is, as long as you can grasp the content of the character spectrum, knowing English calligraphy is as simple as reading Chinese characters.
Bing Ge has been creating English calligraphy for many years and taking it to the international and space.
It is said that a certain Western country once printed his English calligraphy on a rocket and brought it to space.
This kind of English calligraphy has never been seen before, and only one ice brother is in the contemporary era!
Therefore, the title of "Northern Independence" is none other than Ice Brother.
Zhonghu Shot: Shao Yan
Shao Yan's ancestral home is Shandong, so Brother Yan is the central King Kong.
The so-called "Hu shooting" is not hu people shooting arrows, but refers to Yan Ge shooting ink randomly with a needle tube.
His calligraphy was not written with a brush, but with a medical needle; his calligraphy was not written, but shot.
Sucking one or more syringes full of ink and shooting at the rice paper is a random shot, and the person who stretches out the paper on the side will be shot in the face if he is not careful.
Yan Ge said that his creative inspiration came from the hospital, and the sick resident nurse gave him an injection before, so there was a "shooting book".
He also created fishing net calligraphy, which is to dip the net in ink and sprinkle it on paper.
Not only that, but he also innovated in other tools — replacing paperweights with poultry carcasses (plucked chickens).
On the innovation of tools, no one can compare with Yan Ge, but the most worth mentioning is his "shooting book".
Therefore, the title of "Zhonghu Shooting" is none other than Yan Ge.
