The "Exhibition of Artists' Works of the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Lanting Award of Chinese Calligraphy" was recently launched at the National Art Museum of China. This exhibition is one of the academic invitation series of the National Art Museum of China, and the first collective presentation of the works of artists who won the Lifetime Achievement Award of the China Calligraphy Lanting Award.
The exhibition exhibits a total of 19 works, covering five kinds of calligraphy, namely seal, li, kai, xing, and grass, which have both a deep and broad inscription and ancient clumsiness, as well as a gentle temperament of flowing clouds, revealing the calligrapher's profound artistic cultivation and rich humanistic cultivation.
Wu Weishan, member of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, director of the National Art Museum of China and vice chairman of the China Artists Association, believes that "the Chinese Calligraphy Lanting Award named after 'Lanting' is indeed like a flow of water, passing on the traditional context of calligraphy to this era." The Chinese Calligraphy Lanting Award is the highest award in Chinese calligraphy art, and the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Chinese Calligraphy Lanting Award is the 'Lanting Award' in the Lanting Award, which is the highest praise for calligraphy workers. ”
Mr. Zhang Hai served as the academic host and promoter of the exhibition, exhibiting the representative works of Pan Zhonglan, Qi Gong, Wang Xuezhong, Li Duo, Shen Peng, Ouyang Zhongshi, Sun Qifeng, Liu Jiang, Sha Manweng, Yao Dianzhong, Wei Tianchi, Chen Fangjie, Liu Yi, Sun Boxiang, Zhou Huijun and gao Shixiong, Zhang Hai, Shen Ding'an and Duan Chenggui, winners of the lifetime achievement calligraphy of the "China Federation of Literary and Art Circles". Some of these artists with both moral integrity and ability and outstanding achievements have passed away, and some have reached their old age.
They adhered to their ideals and beliefs, inherited Chinese culture, immersed themselves in calligraphy creation, organized calligraphy activities, cultivated calligraphy talents, and made significant contributions to the prosperity of new Chinese calligraphy and the development of culture and art. Appreciate their calligraphy works, taste their artistic life, and feel the social responsibility and homeland feelings of the older generation of artists, and feel the chia tai atmosphere of contemporary Chinese calligraphy.
The exhibition is presented in the Kaiqu Hall on the fourth floor of the National Art Museum of China and will be on display until April 27 (closed on Monday).
