Hong Kong, 2016,
Zhang Daqian's "Taoyuan Map" auctioned a sky-high price of 270 million Hong Kong dollars,
Sensational
He is the most expensive painter in China.
More than 30 years ago, in 1979,
Zhang Daqian is 80 years old,
At this time, his hair is white,
A broken pair of glasses is useless,
Because in previous years, the right eye had lost vision due to capillary rupture and blockage of the eyeball,
This almost ended his career in painting and calligraphy.
After that, he had difficulty drawing with his pen.
But surprisingly,
This old gentleman actually created the art of splashing ink,
That is, on a piece of rice paper,
Splash with ink only,
Create a sense of hierarchy,
And to make a painting of landscapes,
This is the biggest transformation of Zhang Daqian's artistic career.
At the age of 80,
He accepted the request of his friend Huang Tiancai,
Make a huge landscape painting with a length of 10.8 meters and a width of 1.8 meters.
Originally, Zhang Daqian refused,
Regardless of physical aspects,
He was no longer suitable for painting.
But he just doesn't obey the old,
What is the difference between a painter not painting and dying?
He promised to come down,
Day and night, bloodsweet,
Spend more than a year collecting information,
Prepare for the preparation of the manuscript,
In July 1981, the writing was officially started.
This great work,
Mainly with real writing, supplemented by splashing ink,
Majestic, virtual and real,
The contrast between dark green and green is a masterpiece of the world,
The famous work "Lushan Tu",
It is the pinnacle of Zhang Daqian's painting art.
It is also this "Lushan Map" that exhausted Zhang Daqian's last life,
During the painting, he had several heart attacks and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment,
After a little recovery, he was carried back to the painting,
The doctor's family could not be persuaded.
Until March 11, 1983
Draw into a pen, the last moment,
Only to drive the crane to the west.
Whenever I see this historical data,
I'm going to sigh,
What an extreme man,
Will be at the age of 80,
It is not good to play Tai Chi health, you have to paint,
In his own painting art, which has reached the pinnacle of perfection,
One more stunning look.
Zhang Daqian, as his name suggests,
A thousand worlds, vast.
He's using his extremes,
In this vast world,
Live a lively life.
Zhang Daqian
The pinnacle of painting:
Five hundred years a thousand
How powerful is Zhang Daqian's painting skills?
Qi Baishi commented:
"A thousand in five hundred years."
Qi Baishi everyone knows,
That's the first-class titan in the mainland calligraphy and painting circles.
This is still his embarrassment to exaggerate,
To be practical,
Zhang Daqian is a rare calligraphy and painting genius in the past thousand years,
Not only is he talented, but he is also hardworking.
Zhang Daqian had contacts with Huang Binhong, a famous painter of the Republic of China at that time.
Huang Binhong liked the paintings of the Qing Dynasty painter Shi Tao the most,
He was the person who collected the most ShiTao paintings at that time,
It is also the top authority for appreciating Shi Tao's paintings.
Zhang Daqian also likes Shi Tao,
But he didn't have any fine products in his hands.
So I borrowed from Huang Binhong,
As soon as Huang Binhong heard this, his face shrugged down:
"What are you kidding,
How can this painting be borrowed?
Don't borrow, don't borrow. ”
Zhang Daqian ate the closed door soup,
So I had a brilliant idea,
Doesn't Huang Binhong like Shi Tao's hand rolls?
Then why don't I copy a hand scroll of Shi Tao,
Trick this.
Then Zhang Daqian copied a hand scroll of Shi Tao,
When the painting was finished, it was placed in the place of his teacher Zeng Nong's hair.
One day,
Huang Binhong went to see Zeng Nong's hair,
Seeing a scroll of Shi Tao's hand at the head of his desk,
I thought it was the real thing, and I was obsessed with it all at once,
Love to let go, want to buy.
Zeng Nong's hair said: "This is my student Zhang Daqian's.
You have to buy it, look for him. ”
Huang Binhong came to find Zhang Daqian.
Zhang Daqian thought to himself,
This man and my teacher are friends,
He could not bear to deceive him with fake paintings for money,
Don't bother, or change his paintings.
So he said, "How dare I ask for my husband's money?
I'll exchange this painting for the one I wanted to borrow last time! ”
Huang Binhong very cheerfully agreed,
And immediately took the painting out.
In this way, Zhang Daqian used a fake painting he painted,
Changed Huang Binhong's real painting.
And Huang Binhong, a top authoritative painting expert,
I didn't even see it.
Zhang Daqian is painting
One more time.
There is a famous painter and collector in the north,
His name is Chen Banding.
This brother also especially likes Shi Tao's paintings,
Once, he searched for a book of Shi Tao painting pages,
Especially excited, regarded as a boutique,
Carrying in my arms every day,
Be spoiled like an heirloom.
In order to show off that he got this book of Shi Tao,
He specially set up a feast,
Please come to the famous artists and ancient players in the capital at that time,
Said to have come to drink and admire the paintings,
In fact, it is also here to show,
It's like you buy a Cayenne.
Don't organize a bunch of friends and family to come to the house to see,
I can be strong on myself,
I feel sorry for this Cayenne.
It is estimated that the scene is a bit out of control,
Zhang Daqian walked over to Chen Banding and said:
"Where is your album,
Take it out and see. ”
Chen Banding excitedly took out Shi Tao's picture album.
Zhang Daqian glanced at it,
Porphyria laughed out loud.
Chen Banding asked him, "What are you laughing at?" ”
Zhang Daqian said, "It turned out to be this booklet.
I already knew. ”
Chen Banding did not believe,
Zhang Daqian immediately said what was painted on the first page,
What is painted on the second page,
The third page is painted... What section of the question,
What a print of plutonium.
Chen Banding looked over while comparing,
The more I looked at it, the more surprised I became, and it was no different from what Zhang Daqian said.
Chen Banding asked, "Have you ever collected this album?" ”
Zhang Daqian said triumphantly:
"This is my painting."
Chen Banding was stunned:
"What are you kidding!
This is the Shitao album that I have worked so hard to get,
How could it be that you drew it? ”
Zhang Daqian picked up the pen,
On the spot, a painting of Shi Tao was imitated,
Everyone was stunned.
Both of these stories are faked by Zhang Daqian,
Counterfeiting is very easy,
But the degree of counterfeiting is so realistic,
So that even people like Huang Binhong Chen Banding can't see it,
That's the Genius.
Because the ancient paintings are fake,
It's not just a matter of technical copying,
If you want not to be seen by people like Huang Binhong,
There must also be the charm and style of the original painter,
This cannot be achieved without decades of accumulation.
Painter Ye Qianyu said:
"Zhang Daqian is the most diligent of all Chinese painters,
I have seen all the paintings of the ancients more than ten times. ”
Fu Shen, a connoisseur of calligraphy and painting and a historian, commented on Zhang Daqian:
"He plucked a hair out of his body,
If you want to change the stone Tao, you will change the stone Tao,
If you want to change the eight big, you will become the eight big,
If you want to change Tang Bohu, you will become Tang Bohu. ”
It's like you've learned a few completely different martial arts.
Don't practice in a cave for decades,
It is categorically impossible to use freely.
This is the most precious place for Zhang Daqian,
He was a painter with a truly artistic talent,
And he didn't live up to that talent.
Regardless of the era,
There are many people with talents and opportunities,
But those who can live up to their talents and opportunities,
There are only a few.
So, for hundreds of years,
It is also a Zhang Daqian.
Zhang Daqian's peak in the field of art,
It should be copied from the Dunhuang murals.
October 1940,
Zhang Daqian took his third wife Yang Wanjun,
There was also a son mind that came to Dunhuang.
What's in Dunhuang?
Dunhuang has the Mogao Caves,
It is the most first-class mural in the world,
Unfortunately, for thousands of years,
has been hidden in the grottoes deep in the desert,
It is rarely seen by the world.
Zhang Daqian's trip,
It is to paint the paintings in the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes one by one,
Copy it all down.
The difficulty of this project can be imagined,
Dunhuang is located in the desert,
Quite inconvenient to fetch water,
The light in the grotto is dim,
Long years of wet and cold,
It is very difficult to copy and draw,
Especially the paintings on the ceiling inside the grotto,
To hold up a shelf,
People lie on it to draw.
In winter, the dripping water turns into ice,
It's cold inside the grotto,
But the hand that paints cannot wear gloves,
Can only be placed outside to freeze.
"At eight or nine o'clock in the day,
The sun of Dunhuang shines into the cave,
In the afternoon,
As the sun goes south, the light dims",
Zhang Daqian should hold a candle or a lantern in one hand,
Pen in one hand,
It often takes multiple times to make a stroke.
So, what was planned to be done in a few months,
It took Zhang Daqian a full 3 years.
In October 1943,
Zhang Daqian returned to Sichuan with more than 20 camels carrying 276 copied murals.
He also completed the 200,000-word academic work "Dunhuang Stone Room Record".
Chen Yinke praised Zhang Daqian:
"It is an immortal event in the field of Dunhuang studies,
It doesn't matter. ”
It could even be said that
It is Zhang Daqian,
Make the murals in the Dunhuang grottoes,
Become a world art,
His efforts,
Let these sleeping murals,
Begin to be full of eternal vitality,
Five hundred years for a thousand,
The praise is really true.
Zhang Daqian copied the murals in Dunhuang
The scummy love:
Even when you are old, you have to fall in love
Many people don't know,
Before Zhang Daqian was a painter,
It's just a love species;
Before Zhang Daqian could paint women,
I've slept with a lot of women.
This is very similar to Qi Baishi,
Qi Baishi has been entangled with many women all his life,
The end is the end,
84 years old living in a hospital,
I also soaked in the head nurse of Union Hospital.
Zhang Daqianbi Qi Baishi leisurely nodded,
But also stepped on the skirt corners of countless women.
Zhang Daqian's first woman,
It was her cousin, xie shunhua,
Good looking, gentle personality,
Grew up with Zhang Daqian,
Take care of Zhang Daqian like a big sister,
What's the matter?
Just think of Zhang Daqian first:
"There's something delicious here,
Come, give you something to eat. ”
Zhang Daqian broke into trouble,
Xie Shunhua can usually help him get it done.
This allows Zhang Daqian to often feel a kind of maternal warmth.
Xie Shunhua can satisfy almost all his fantasies about women,
And he could feel at ease with that woman.
The world is windy and rainy, and the clouds are strange,
So you have to have a spear and a shield, and you have ambition,
But there must be someone who can make you let go of all your guards and armor,
Just so quietly and meekly like a cat staying by her side.
For Zhang Daqian, Xie Shunhua is such a person.
Zhang Daqian and Chi Chunhong
At the age of 18, Zhang Daqian went to Japan to learn dyeing and weaving.
Xie Shunhua went to send it, crying pear blossoms with rain,
Take 4 eggs out of your arms,
Hiding in the woods behind the village,
Waiting for Zhang Daqian.
Before leaving, Xie Shunhua took out the egg,
Stuffed into Zhang Daqian's hand,
Crying, he said, "I'll wait for you, come back early." ”
Zhang Daqian burst into tears,
He said fiercely, "Wait for me,
As soon as I come back, I'll marry you. ”
Xie Shunhua took this sentence as an eternal promise.
But neither of them thought,
Commitment turned out to be a trick.
Xie Shunhua's small body is not very good,
After Zhang Daqian left,
Even more thought about him day and night,
After a long time of illness, he got blood tuberculosis and died.
Zhang Daqian, who was far away in Japan, was shocked to hear the bad news,
The class was not finished, and the warlords in the country were not concerned,
Hurry to buy tickets and rush back.
Xie Shunhua has fallen to the grave, and Zhang Daqian's heart is like dead ashes,
I thought about it and found a temple to become a monk.
Give yourself the name "Daqian".
Since then, the green lantern ancient Buddha companion,
Face to face Si Qing.
But Zhang Daqian estimated that he did not expect to be punched in the face so quickly.
Three months after ordination,
Zhang Daqian and his brother ran to him,
Let him be vulgar,
"You are a young and good young man,
I haven't even touched a woman.
Good intention to become a monk? ”
Zhang Daqian was reluctant,
You have to stay in the temple.
His brother was good at talking and didn't move.
And finally he said, "Go back.
Our dad found another family affair for you. ”
Zhang Daqian listened to Bi's heart move,
Oh, it turned out to be going back to marriage.
Found another woman.
Zhang Daqian was shaken:
"Why don't you go back and have a look?"
So from the meditation temple back to the customs,
Honestly went back to Sichuan.
This is the second woman in Zhang Daqian's life,
Called Cao Zhengrong, a typical traditional everyone boudoir.
Zhang Daqian did not have the slightest affection for her,
Excluding, in particular, such parental-designated marriages,
So he and Cao Zhengrong's days,
That is, it was ok.
It's been like this for 2 years,
Cao plastic surgery still can't give birth to children,
This was in the family of that era,
But it's a big deal.
So Zhang Daqian and his father thought about finding another one for her,
Zhang Daqian listened, it was great.
So, the third woman in Lao Zhang's life appeared,
It's called xanthanol,
Pungent personality, arrogant,
The same as the Sichuan girl you see standing on Jiefang Road in Chongqing today,
Wear miniskirts, sheer shirts,
Leaky eyes, with sunglasses,
White face,
Cocked ass,
Strong thighs.
Zhang Daqian liked it very much.
The pain of the bereavement of love,
and the ambition to enter the monastery as a monk,
I've forgotten everything.
Zhang Daqian and Yellow Gelin
Since then, Zhang Daqian's peach blossom luck,
It's like riding a high-speed train.
In 1920, he met Li Qiujun in Shanghai, on;
In 1927, he met Chi Chunhong in Korea, on;
In 1934, he met 16-year-old Huaiyu in Beiping, on;
In the same year, he met Yang Wanjun in Beiping, Shang;
In 1947, I met Xu Wenbo, on.
Zhang Daqian once said, "Those who are beautiful,
First-class fat, white, high;
Second-class hemp, demon, and sauerge;
Third-class splashing, spicy, and diao. ”
The woman Zhang Daqian likes,
It's almost a little bit fat.
Very fleshy, flowing with wild primitive desires.
Zhang Daqian also said to everyone:
"Life, no matter how old you are, you have to fall in love."
So, when he was fifty or sixty years old, he went to Japan,
I also fell in love with the Japanese girl Miss Yamada,
Falling in love can't help yourself.
This is a one that even if the hormones stop secreting,
Men who also smell femininity around them.
Slag or not slag? Slag, real slag.
The scumbag is frank,
Scum is well known to the world.
But we can't seem to judge him in terms of ordinary Lun.
Writer Su Yigua said:
"Artists are wild animals in their bones."
Primitive human desires will never be limited by the rules of civilization,
But it's exactly that,
They will always live more blood-boiling than ordinary people,
That restless desire,
Like a huge turbo thrust,
Pushing them to the pinnacle of their respective artistic fields,
It also pushed these people to swing under the skirts of one woman after another.
Zhang Daqian and Xu Wenbo
Ashes-level foodies:
Eating is the highest art of life
Zhang Daqian is still a real ashes-level foodie.
In 2001, a recipe was sold in Taipei.
Starting price NT$160w,
In the end, 10.9 million yuan was auctioned.
One of the most expensive recipes in the world.
Whose recipe is this recipe?
It is Zhang Daqian's own writing of "Daqian Residents Learn to Cook".
As we all know,
Zhang Daqian is a painter,
The first painter of the Republic of China,
Well-known.
But Zhang Daqian himself said:
"In terms of art,
I'm good at cooking, and I'm more than good at painting. ”
Zhang Daqian once worshiped the calligraphy master Li Ruiqing as a teacher,
Although this brother is old,
But a typical old foodie,
Especially loved eating crab.
There was a record of eating 100 crabs one day,
Hence the nickname "Li Bai Crab".
And when he died, he died eating crabs.
It is said that one day he ate a dead crab,
Cause typhoid fever, then hang up.
Worship such a foodie as a teacher,
Zhang Daqian is not immune to its influence.
So Zhang Daqian's life,
In addition to being a life of painting and flirting with my sister,
The same is the life of a foodie.
Zhang Daqian held the spoon
As a foodie,
Zhang Daqian first eats,
Eat everything, everywhere.
Zhang Daqian likes to eat Hangzhou cuisine,
For a while he was stationed in Hangzhou,
It is declared to go to the West Lake to collect wind,
Fart, obviously it's going to eat!
I drew a circle around the West Lake,
One of the surrounding restaurants fell.
Zhang Daqian likes to eat the dishes of the outer building of Hangzhou's West Lake Building,
Especially West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp,
and raw exploding eel back.
Raw pop eel back this dish,
Zhang Daqian must go to eat every morning when he gets up.
Once, Zhang Daqian painted the West Lake on the attic of the outer building,
A few strokes of ink, the outline of the West Lake came out,
The mood is long.
The hotel owner looked very fond of it,
Say: Daqian, you are good at painting,
Can you paint a picture of the small shop,
I'll waive your meal bill.
Zhang Daqian shook his head:
"That's not okay, my painting,
It will be passed on to future generations.
For a meal,
Just draw for you, that won't work.
But I can take a picture with you. ”
So I rushed to take a photo with the owner of the building outside the building.
Since then, this habit has been taken all over the world by Zhang Daqian,
Every time you go to a restaurant, as long as the food in the restaurant is delicious,
He insisted on running to the back kitchen to praise the cook:
"Delicious, delicious, delicious."
Then take a group photo.
Typical hardcore foodie.
In his later years,
Zhang Daqian settled in Taiwan,
Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Qun, who settled in Taiwan at that time, became friends of Mo Rebellion.
These three old men got together when they had nothing to do,
But because Zhang Xueliang was placed under house arrest,
Therefore, the gathering of "three Zhangs" can only be carried out at Zhang Xueliang's house.
Whenever this time comes,
It was when Zhang Daqian showed his cooking skills.
For Zhang Daqian's cooking skills,
Zhang Xueliang commented:
"Mr. Jiang often said that I read books at home.
Play ball, fish,
It's a fairy-like life.
Today I want to tell Mr. Jiang,
With Zhang Daqian's delicacies,
My fairy life has taken another step forward. ”
It's a very high evaluation,
Yes, as a veteran foodie,
Zhang Daqian will not only eat,
And very good at cooking.
Once, Zhang Daqian's wife Xu Wenbo had a birthday,
Zhang Daqian said, "Oh, wife,
You usually take good care of me,
Let me make you shou noodles today! ”
Then roll up your sleeves and cook.
Zhang Daqian is very harsh in cooking,
He doesn't go to seasoning,
Instead, let the men match according to the requirements.
Add it yourself.
And he never uses a spoon when he adds spices,
With one hand wrapped around the wide sleeves of his robe,
Grasp the seasoning with one hand and sprinkle it evenly and finely on the dish.
And, only this time,
Definitely not say that after adding it, taste it,
Enough to see enough taste.
This is also his unique skill,
Zhang Daqian once said that if you grasp it accurately,
Is a really good cook.
Because Zhang Daqian is a painter,
Very good at fiddling with all kinds of colors,
So he cooks,
Pay great attention to the collocation of colors,
Not only to be delicious, but also to look good.
After the opening of the table, I saw four large basins specially made by Zhang Daqian in the middle:
Two pots of slightly salty white cut beef,
A pot of braised beef with juice,
A pot of beef stew with soup;
A green pot with a pattern of lasagna,
Another yellow pot with a pattern holds fine noodles.
There is also a plate of turquoise coriander next to it,
A plate of red pepper shredded fried mung bean sprouts,
There are eight small plates in a circle,
It contains salt, pepper, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, chili oil, noodle sauce and tempeh.
Such beef noodles,
If you are present,
No need to eat, no need to smell,
Just by looking at it, The Hala seeds can flow to the ground.
Zhang Daqian's daughter Zhang Xinrui commented on Zhang Daqian:
"Father's lifelong hobby,
In addition to poetry, books and paintings,
Love homemade food for fun,
Its footprint is all over the world,
Eat all the delicacies of the world. ”
If it weren't for Zhang Daqian's painting reputation,
In fact, he should be a foodie,
For him, there is nothing more important in life than eating,
Man may not treat his flesh well,
But be sure to be kind to your mouth,
Eating is the highest art.
Zhang Daqian statue
Live to the extreme,
in order to live a lively life
Zhang Daqian once commented on his life:
"The old man's footprints are half the world,
Travel north to The Western Xia of The Ming Dynasty. ”
He was born on the mainland,
Study in Japan,
Has held exhibitions in Europe,
Lived in both Argentina and Brazil,
In his later years, he mixed with Zhang Xueliang in Taiwan.
Throughout the ages, Chinese painters who have truly reached the goal of traveling the world,
In addition to Zhang Daqian,
The second one could not be found.
Zhang Daqian's life,
It's a very lively life,
At the very least,
Women who want to sleep, they all sleep,
Love sensational;
I have eaten all the delicious food I want,
Eat to the fullest;
He said painting was his side hustle.
The home page is Chef,
But his paintings entered the room,
Popular around the world.
In every way,
He lives to the extreme,
If not, it will not be ok.
Even in those war-torn times,
His whole life is still steaming hot.
Zhang Daqian character painting
In fact, in Zhang Daqian's life,
There is the shadow of each and every one of us,
Everyone wants to love happily,
Everyone wants to live freely;
But more or less,
We're always too much to hold back.
Care about worldly judgments, care about the eyes of others;
So, when the wife is in her arms, she thinks of her lover;
When the lover is in his arms, he thinks about morality and ethics;
Incomparably tangled;
When eating, think about losing weight;
When losing weight, thinking about missing out on good food;
It's just as tangled.
We want to make our lives lively,
but afraid that his tentacles will be hurt by sticking out,
Become cowering and shrinking, shrinking feet.
You don't have to do everything to the extreme like Zhang Daqian,
But at least, when eating,
Tell yourself: Don't be afraid of being fat,
Eat fast and happy,
Eat and drink,
Isn't that a respect for life?
If you want a marriage with a white head and an old age,
Then tell your lover:
In my life,
The only place about love,
Just left to you.
Of course, you can also choose to lose weight,
Mold yourself into a beauty pageant champion;
You can also be scummy,
See one love one,
Measure your love by the number of people you interact with the opposite sex.
In any case, people should be at least in one aspect,
Do it to the extreme.
Because only those who live to the extreme,
to live a lively enough,
Enough blood to boil.
