【Calligraphy Testimonials】
Calligraphy, in short, is done in the book, using the limited space of The Structure of Chinese Characters, with unique artistic ingenuity, to create infinite artistic beauty with its own pen and ink language.
Be bold with the pen and explain clearly; Shape chasing danger, side; The layout has opening and closing, and the variation is varied.
Instead of putting Chinese characters on paper, the calligrapher uses his artistic talent to process the art of Chinese characters to make it harmonious and beautiful, and on the basis of the ancient sages, he has become unique, ideological, and talented. Change is the soul of the life of calligraphy art and the comprehensive embodiment of humanistic temperament.
In the pen used in calligraphy, the radius of the wrist is large, and the strength of the finger is large. "Wrist tendons, fingers raw bones." This is the difference between the wrist and the five fingers when used correctly. Use the pen with your fingers, the pen with your wrist, and the pen with your fingers and wrists.
Cursive is the most abundant calligraphy in calligraphy, ink and chapters, and it is also the book body that best reflects the personality of the calligrapher, commonly known as a thousand faces and changeable. The calligrapher himself cannot reproduce the same work as it is, otherwise the calligraphy work is not a creation, which is determined by the calligraphy itself. The key to cursive writing is the use of a pen, which is the problem of making the pen turn. Make the turn clear, the brushwork will jump strongly, the movement is strong, the change is large, and the viewer can read the rhythm and beauty.
Creation is like a basketball game, the serve is powerful, the catch is accurate and in place, the ball is passed like entering no man's land, interspersed with avoidance is clever, everything is clean and sharp, in one go. Another example is to play snooker, not only to grasp the strength of the shot, but also to consider the position of the mother and child to return, so as to facilitate the shot again. The same is true of calligraphy, which must not only solve the starting pen, but also solve the closing pen, and at the same time solve the relationship between the upper and lower pens. For example, dancing in a group, there are groups and individuals, and a single discord will destroy the entire chapter layout. The structure of calligraphy chapters is like social groups, there are size, height, fat and thin, old and young, young and strong, etc., the collocation should be appropriate, and the width and narrowness, length and length should be moderate. Reading unexpected changes can show the richness of the work.
Calligraphy is not just a square text composed of basic elements such as horizontal, vertical, skimming and pinching, but a history that embodies the splendid culture of the Chinese nation. From oracle bones to small seals, from lishu to modern variants, all reflect the condensation of the wisdom of the sages, and all reflect the creation and pursuit of successive generations of scholars.
Chinese calligraphy went through four stages, the first stage, before the Tang Dynasty, the writing used the mental method; In the second stage, from the Tang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, writing was written using brushwork; In the third stage, from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties to the twentieth century, writing was done using technique; The fourth stage, modern line composition with ink. If we talk about ink painting, painting is far better than calligraphy, and the beauty of calligraphy is contained in the charm of Chinese characters. If we leave Shen Yun to talk about calligraphy, is it not the water without a source and the wood without a root?
Calligraphy is not writing, it is the art of constraint. (Yang Shupeng)
【Famous Reviews】
Calligraphy shows pride Peng fei wanli remote - Guan Yang Shu Peng calligraphy
I met the calligrapher Mr. Yang Shupeng because I visited a painter that day. Probably they were all from Hebei, and the painting and calligraphy studio was on the same floor, so after interviewing the painter, they interviewed him by the way.
Mr. Yang Shupeng's calligraphy is extremely high, which is my first impression after watching his calligraphy works. Although he was a calligrapher who could both true, grass, subordinate, and seal, the only calligraphy works I saw at that time were cursive. His seal book and variations are what I saw on his calligraphy and painting bags, although they are printed, but I can see that his seal book and lishu have a deep foundation and a unique style. At that time, although I did not see him playing on the spot and playing arbitrarily, I was amazed by his cursive works alone. The list book he wrote, "Guan Hai Tingtao", the poems written by Li Bai, are all written in cursive, although it is not ink-colored interlaced, wanton catharsis, but the vigorous pen strength, the layout of the calligraphy works, the majesty of the Han Wei inscription in the book, and the simple nature, let people see that he is an open-minded and deeply educated calligrapher. At that time, I read the introduction on the painting bag, which confirmed my opinion. His profile reads:
"Yang Shupeng, character Xiangtian, no. Xiaoyao, born in 1956 in Quyang, Hebei Province, is a member of the Chinese Calligraphers Association, a member of the Xi'an Calligraphers Association, and a member of the Weinan Writers Association. In 2007, his calligraphy works won the "Golden Bauhinia Excellence Award" in the selection of "Golden Bauhinia Award to Commemorate the Tenth Anniversary of Hong Kong's Return to The Motherland", in 2008 his calligraphy works won the silver medal in the "Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of China's Reform and Opening Up and Blessing the Beijing Olympic Games Chinese Contemporary Calligraphy and Painting Artists Art Exhibition", and in 2008, his calligraphy works won the third prize in the "Olympic China - Celebrating the 29th Beijing Olympic Games Calligraphy and Painting Collection Exhibition". The calligraphy works are exhibited in the collection of the Guzheng Museum. He successively studied party and government management at the Central Party School and studied calligraphy at the Zhangjiakou Branch of China Correspondence University of Calligraphy and Painting. The calligraphy worships the land as a teacher, and the cursive book worships Shi Jiping as a teacher. He is good at cursive writing and writes his own poems. ”
During my conversation with him, he told me about the growth of his calligraphy. He said: "Soon after I joined the work (1985), I had the honor to enter the Propaganda Department of a large state-owned enterprise, and it became a profession to draw board newspapers, write posters, and write articles, and since then I have had an indissoluble relationship with writing and calligraphy. Due to the needs of my work, I followed the tradition, and learned in depth from the calligraphy, and then practiced calligraphy, and worked hardest in cursive writing, successively learning from Yu Youren, Sun Guoting, 'Er Wang', Huai Su, Huang Tingjian, Wang Duo and others. ”
To this end, he wrote his hard work into a psalm:
In order to find the skills of the famous master, half a life drifts like a rotation. It is difficult to express the life aspirations of the burden, and it is difficult to find immortals to visit the end of the road. Endure humiliation and sweat and rain, and thousands of hardships and refinements are stronger. Dharma, Taoism and calligraphy, invisibly merged into the tangible.
The other is:
Painstaking practice of the heart will rise to the canopy, the heart penmanship is like a spring breeze. The night silence asked the lone lamp deeper,
The ups and downs are staggered. After studying the book, it is only then that it has become enlightened, and there is a reason that the original has never been born.
During the conversation, I learned that he had a wide range of hobbies, practiced Qigong, and found that calligraphy and Qigong had many similarities. He found his roots and realized the calligraphy "mental method". Calligraphy, in short, is the practice in the book, using the limited space of the Chinese character structure to infinitely display the rhyme of pen and ink and create an infinite beauty of artistic conception. Therefore, The Land Teacher wrote for him as:
If the tree hongzhi goes down to the ink sea, Dapeng will be able to go to the blue sky.
Based on his profile, I saw his calligraphic works further. His calligraphy is tempered for a long time, and indeed it is based on the "Two Kings" book post as the background, rubbing in the Confucian elegance and elegance of Tang and Song calligraphy, free from simplicity, and taking the calligraphy style of Su Dongpo, Mi Fu and others as a reference, there is a random shape, strange knots, and spontaneous and natural writing style. He uses a rounded pen, and the whole temperament is like a mountain flowing water, and a big river rushing, giving people a height that is often heard of in Daya.
I couldn't help but sigh. But he seems to be an introvert and not good at words. About the first time we met, although he was grand and strong, with black hair, a rectangular bronze face, wide eyebrows, a tall body, walking like a fly, at first glance he looked very capable. Dressed in white, it gives the impression of being all brash and straightforward. But when I came into contact with him, I saw him shyly from time to time. Of course, his introverted personality seems to be different from Mr. Zhou Danyu's low-key personality. About Mr. Yang Shupeng in the big cultural atmosphere of Xi'an, has not yet formed a climate, that is to say, he has not yet made friends with the next person, and he has not yet galloped the book world, so he seems to be confused and how to expand his position.
Of course, my feelings are just feelings, but in any case, his calligraphy is superior, and in the circle of Chang'an calligraphy and painting, it can be compared with some of the more famous people. But his first three kicks hadn't been kicked away yet. I think artists talk about attainment, and calligraphers talk about attainment. It's like the idiom of "self-nomination", the awl is placed in the bag and will leak out, which is sooner or later. People often say: Eighteen martial arts are learned, and the murderous A family is not afraid of him. Mr. Yang Shupeng has passed the year of destiny, which is the most precious year in life, the golden autumn in the season, the spring and autumn fruits, the natural world is the time to present the golden valley and silver grain, and the interpersonal relationship is the time to produce results. Of course, mr. Yang Shupeng's high achievement in calligraphy will definitely have his due return. (Tan Zhaowen)
