A "book sage" in Japan has a status similar to that of Wang Xizhi, and his words far exceed those of the ancients
In the literary and art circles, many people know a saying - "literature is not the first", because for art, different people often have different views in their eyes, and objectively speaking, art naturally has a high level of distinction, the key is to see from which aspect to measure.
For example, in the world of calligraphy, if on the beauty of danger, no one can compare with Ouyang Inquiry, if on the state of Chong and Harmony, then Yu Shinan will come out on top, if the penmanship becomes the basis for measurement, then Chu Suiliang should not give in, if the book volume qi, then should be the first to promote Su Dongpo, if the qi is simple and lush, majestic and vigorous, then Yan Zhenqing can be a model...
And if we look at it from the comprehensive level, as well as the danger of the Mid-Autumn Festival in Pingzheng, in the calligraphy, there is a situation of "not being excited and not being strong, but the wind is far away" and the influence on future generations, then there is no doubt that "Shusheng" Wang Xizhi can be the first.
But for every calligrapher, to learn an art, you must understand the eclectic truth, can not cling to a certain family, or a certain aesthetic paradigm, and draw influence from different aesthetic heights to create a more comprehensive view of art.
And "Japanese calligraphy" is an excellent model for us.
Many contemporary people sneer at Japanese calligraphy, as everyone knows, contemporary Japanese calligraphy is outstanding above contemporary calligraphy, there are cold in the characteristics of water, Japan is sparing no effort in inheritance, in the four treasures of the study room, even reached a height comparable to the ancient Chinese, and these domestic techniques have basically been lost.
The most famous in the Japanese calligraphy world is the "three strokes and three traces", and the calligraphy of these six people is also a height that is completely difficult for contemporary calligraphers to reach.
In the "three strokes and three traces", there are two people who were once "international students" of the Tang Dynasty, who can go to the Tang Dynasty to "study", and need to go through layers of selection and strict academic education in Japan, so these two people are top geniuses, they have been in contact with Han culture since childhood, proficient in Chinese, and after the Tang Dynasty, they frantically absorbed Datang culture, including systems, artifacts, culture, art, etc. Understanding, from the Han to the end of the Tang Dynasty, according to incomplete statistics, the largest number of Japanese students entering China, the number of three thousand people.
There are only these two orthodox calligraphers, one is Tachibana Yishi, known as "Tachibana Xiucai" by the Tang Dynasty, and the other is the Konghai monk, who is not only exquisite in Buddhism, but also an orthodox descendant of "brushwork".
We know that the twelfth generation of Wang Xizhi's "brushwork" is Han Fang, and The "penmanship" of Kukai has been taught by Han Fangming, and the level is even higher, with the reputation of "Little Wang Xizhi", and is the person with the highest level and the closest strength to Wang Xizhi among the "three strokes and three traces".
Among the calligraphy works handed down by the monk Kukai, there is a piece of the best in the Kyoto Museum in Japan, this work is a national treasure of Japan, called "Hyacinth", every word in this work is evolved from Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, and because it is a tang dynasty authenticity, its value and artistic level are completely equivalent to the tang dynasty's super-first-class calligraphy masters, and its value is immeasurable.
This "Hyacinth" is an artistic presentation by people from different cultural backgrounds after they have received the true transmission of Wang Xi's brushwork, which is of great benefit to enriching our horizons and learning the orthodox "Two Kings" brushwork.
Today, we have carried out an ultra-high-definition 1:1 museum-level reproduction of the original work of the Air and Sea "Hyacinth" hidden in Japan for everyone to learn to copy, the characters are clear and delicate, and they are inseparable from the real handwriting.
