Five-body and excellent stele theory gong Fiber silk reflects the literati style
——Remembering the famous calligrapher Zhang Xin
The calligraphy of the calligrapher Mr. Zhang Xin has a five-body and excellent width, and then has its own wonderful depth. Writing calligraphy, with the persistence of taking the ancient style of the law, is quite authentic, which is the ancient and modern continuum of the dragon vein of traditional calligraphy. Walking into his calligraphy system one by one, you can see that the literati calligraphy is like the breath of the psalms, the pen can be used as the brewing of the golden book, and the result of the pen being set into a jinzi, which is what a calligrapher should look like, and this is the handy hand of calligraphy!
The theory of gesture has a saying, poor study of the seal, gong province also became a stereotype of the book Saint Wang Xizhi also has a profound body of the value of the unity of the seal book, but the calligraphy of later generations has far away from the experience of the seal calligraphy, resulting in the pen and ink to turn smoothly, congenital deficiency. Now look at Mr. Zhang Xin's seal book creation, there is a strong ancient style reference, the main body is based on the Zhengda meteorology of the Taishan Monument, and the writing is strong and soft. He also took the rigor and fluency of the Fa Yi Shan Stele, and wrote it in a chulang pattern. Of course, the vivid and round work of the stone carved in Langyatai is also the ease of his seal book works. He integrated the kung fu of the seal book stele, and finally turned the stele method into a writing method, further emphasizing the pen and ink effect of the seal book creation, so that the seal book can be borrowed from the past to open up the present, and there is a kind of stunning demeanor in the book world.
Only when the book is discussed and the law is detailed will it have the true kung fu of the kaifa without deception. Mr. Zhang Xin has experienced calligraphy and has spared no effort in pursuing. Taking Ouyang Qian's calligraphy as the teacher, there is the method of taking the fa as the upper, and the obtaining of the fa is also the result of superior habits. Therefore, putting his calligraphy and the Ninety Percent Palace Book together to look at it, and having both form and god, is a legend that cannot be discerned by the world. Make a side pen, like a bird taking advantage of the momentum to fall on the branches, it is very vivid. Writing a pencil, rushing to slow down, side into the middle line, quite artistic shaping effect. The merits of the Eight Laws, without first-class drawbacks, can be written in one piece of the book in particular! The most valuable thing is that he wrote in letters to avoid the problem of printing body, showing that the pen and ink were full of business, not flush up and down, not square on the left and right, different in flat curves, high and low, and the words all had a dangerous pen momentum, and there was also a return to peace that turned danger into destruction. In the book, he is good at presenting contradictions through momentum, and is also good at resolving the contradictions between pen and ink through fusion, so that the book can eliminate all craftsmanship and look at the incomparable spirit of pen and ink.
Mr. Zhang Xin's Lishu Xicheng, the main body of the Cao Quan Stele, ceremonial stele, Shi Chen stele and other elegant inscriptions as the method, written left and right, silkworm head swallowtail. Through the abundance of multi-god pen and ink, the waves are folded and folded, and a vertical hidden front is also the top product of the fa. It can be seen that Zhang Xin's calligraphy is all presented with the Fadu as the foundation, without the slightest tackiness of jianghu calligraphy, which can convey the gods for traditional calligraphy and can also be used for the inscriptions of previous dynasties. From this point of view, Zhang Xin's calligraphy is just a masterpiece of calligraphy and endless generations, which can make the calligraphy culture continue in ancient and modern times and have a long history.
The five bodies and the excellent stele are meritorious, and the filament reflects the literati style. Everyone in the world learns the appearance of Lan Ting, wants to change the bones of all bones without Jindan, who knows the literati Zhang Gongxin, the next pen can go to the Wusi column. Mr. Zhang Xin's cursive works, with the wind of the two kings as the origin, Xi Chenglanting preamble for a long time, and the heart to pursue the Linboyuan Post, the Seventeen Posts, the Fast Snow QingTi, the Jin Dynasty literati style of the natural consciousness is quite thorough, can be lyrical according to the book, because the book is changzhi, the pen and the heart are in harmony, ink and love, this is the highest realm of calligraphy creation! Zhang Xin's calligraphy finally embarked on the height of a palmist in the realm of Daofa nature, presenting a strange shape and a suitable calligraphy. The sage style is clear at a glance, and the calligraphy is wonderful and true!
