Xiao Kai, is a kind of calligraphy, founded in the Three Kingdoms Wei dynasty Zhong Xuan, he was originally the most outstanding calligraphy master of the Lishu, the writing of the calligraphy, also born from han Li, the gesture is like The Feihong drama sea, very vivid, but the knot body is wide and flat, the horizontal painting is long and the straight painting is short, there is still a will of the subordinate, but it has been prepared for the Kai method, and it is actually the ancestor of the main book.
In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wang Xizhi carefully studied Xiaokai calligraphy, making it reach the realm of perfection, and also laid down the standard for appreciating the beauty of Chinese Xiaokai calligraphy. Su Dongpo's treatise has the fine saying that "large characters are difficult to be dense and seamless, and small characters are difficult to be more than enough". Among the famous calligraphers of modern and modern times, Pan Linggao, Shen Yinmo, Zheng Xiaoxu, Deng Sanmu, Lin Sanzhi and others who are good at calligraphy.
What we appreciate today is lin sanzhi's 24-year-old book.
Chinese poet, calligrapher, painter
Lin Sanzhi
Lin Sanzhi (1898-1989), minglin, character sanzhi, number three fools, left ear, old man on the river, etc., poet, calligrapher and painter, especially good at cursive writing. In 1972, he became famous during the Sino-Japanese calligraphy exchange selection, and his calligraphy work "Sino-Japanese Friendship Poem" was praised as "Lin Sanzhi's First Cursive Calligraphy".
Lin Sanzhi, like Wen Zhengming, belongs to the typical example of "late success of the big instrument", and it is precisely because of his late fame that decades of hard study have nourished the atmosphere, rhyme, meaning and interest of his books, so that he can reach a supernatural and extremely high realm, and contribute to the cause of modern Chinese calligraphy art.
Together with Zhao Puchu and Qi Gong, he called the poems, books, and paintings "Three Absolute Contemporary", and Li Zhimin called "Southern Lin and North Li", and Lin Sanzhi's cursive writing is called "Forest Body", and today we appreciate Lin Sanzhi's Xiaokai "Four Hours Reading Music Poem Copy" written by Lin Sanzhi in his youth.
"Four Hours of Reading And Music Poems", Xiao Kai, on paper, 27×17.5cm, is now in the Ma'anshan Linshan Art Museum in Anhui.
As we all know, it is his cursive writing that has achieved great success and made it "worshipped" by countless people. This work, the text of which is small letters, is inscriptive. Whether it is grass or kai, Lin Sanzhi is absolutely in the same vein in line kung fu!
Its pen is vigorous, the pen is sharp, the lines are thin, the circle is square, the square is round, the soft is rigid, and it is called an excellent work.
Lin Sanzhi's greatest contribution was to apply the ink method in painting to calligraphy, creating a new world of cursive art, known in history as "Grass Sage". The "thin and flowing" "forest body" defends the central position of Chinese calligraphy in the world.
Lin Sanzhi once wrote a poem by feeling at the age of seventy: "Do not go with the world, and write and ink since the happy years." Writing to the deepest part of the soul, I don't know if there is me or not. It can be seen that his pursuit of the spiritual realm is unambiguous, he regards calligraphy as a thing in temperament, and he is proud to be able to "write to the deepest part of the soul", which is purely the manifestation of the true spirit, which is a kind of "natural" realm.
Many people in modern times think that Lin Sanzhi's cursive writing is ashamed of "grass saint", it is simply not comparable to Zhang Zhi, Zhang Xu, Huai Su and others, and his calligraphy achievements are very controversial, today I appreciate Lin Sanzhi's Xiaokai "Four Hours of Reading Music and Poetry Copying", what do you think of his calligraphy level?
