In the book world of the 20th century, Yu Ren and Gao Er were suitable for leading the way with their own unique cursive style. On December 15th, the "National Art Museum of China Collection Revitalization Series Exhibition: Ren Chong Gao Yuan - Yu Right Ren and Gao ErShi Calligraphy Exhibition" was launched at the National Art Museum of China. After more than half a century, the two confidants "met" at the National Art Museum of China and recounted the love affair of poetry and books.
Yu Youren was a 20th-century politician, educator, and calligrapher. His calligraphy is written into the grass with a stele, melting and casting hundreds of families, forming a majestic and mellow, dashing and natural artistic style, known as the "Three Plains Grass Sage". He is also a famous scholar, poet and calligrapher of the 20th century, and is especially good at calligraphy. The two are friends who have forgotten their years, and yu is more than 20 years old in the right year of senior high school. The second year of high school was supposed to give more than ten poems at the Dragon Boat Festival and Chongyang Festival in 1947, which shows that the friendship between the two has a long history.
In this exhibition, more than 20 calligraphy works of Right Ren and Senior High School are exhibited. Among them, there is Yu Youren's eye-catching cursive couplet "Heaven Opens Endlessly, Great Profit and Crowd", and there is also Mr. Gao Ershi's cursive representative work "Liu Zhen's Song". Wu Weishan, director of the National Art Museum of China, introduced that the collection was donated by Mr. Zhu Yilong and Ms. Gao Keke, a family member of the second year of high school, which enriched the collection sequence of calligraphy in the 20th century collection of the National Art Museum of China. Through this exhibition, the audience can not only witness the reunion of the calligraphy art of Youren and Gao Ershi at the National Art Museum of China, but also further appreciate the charm of calligraphy art in the 20th century, as well as the academic ideals and literati spirit of the calligraphers.
The exhibition will be on view until 3 January 2022.
