Inscription: In 1999, a secret ballot initiated by Chinese Calligraphy selected ten outstanding calligraphers, in order: Wu Changshuo, Lin Sanzhi, Kang Youwei, Shen Yinmo, Sha Menghai, Mao Zedong, Xie Wuliang, Yu Youren, Qi Baishi, and Li Shutong. And the second place is Lin Sanzhi, when it comes to this name, I believe that friends are very familiar with him, he is known as the "contemporary grass saint", I never thought that his Xiaojie was so superb that it could not be underestimated.
When it comes to Lin Sanzhi, what we associate with is his cursive writing, and rarely see his small letters, it really has an unexpected feeling, let's enjoy it together.
From the point of view of Lin Sanzhi's small letter, one of the biggest characteristics of his small kai is that in the spirit, it is very subtle, varied, each dot painting, like a dancing note, very dynamic, and this dynamic beauty, is also vividly expressed, and the line, as if dancing, in the method of taking, is also relatively clear, not only has the Wei Jin style bone, but also fully integrates Ouyang Xunkaishu's way of using the pen, the treatment of this square pen, very well expressed, Especially in the turning pen, it shows competent, neat, through a sharp force, but also a little painting, the performance is very warm, elegant, such as the twisted pen, it reflects a variety of changes, some are written into the form of reverse twisting, some show a larger form, such treatment, but also reflect a wonderful state, and some are like dragonflies point water, feel very fresh.
Many friends also saw his small kai, said, his small kai and the charm of Jiang Kui Xiaokai, it can be seen that in the method of taking, not only to achieve high antiquity, but also to achieve a high degree of unity, the integration is very in place, for us, it is also a touch effect, his small block in the glyph processing, but also shows a sense of broadness, very atmospheric, such a feeling, is it also amazing to you? In the layout, there is a sense of contrast, the words are tight, the line spacing is very comfortable, such a performance, more distinctive, and there are places, there is obvious white space, this white space, on the whole, also increases this contrast effect, very temperamental, I don't know, what will you feel after you see it?
From the above small block work, this small block is more distinctive, and even reveals a "thin gold body" brush stroke, really wonderful, and on the line, there is also an unexpected elasticity, this elasticity, more full of tension, for many friends, see such handwriting, you will be surprised, did not think, his small letter is so charming, subverting our aesthetics, worthy of one of the 10 outstanding calligraphers of the 20th century, "contemporary grass saint" Lin Sanzhi Xiaokai, Did it also win your approval?
And some small letters, the most important thing, also show a Republic of China meteorology, the characteristics of the times, is also very prominent, I don't know, after you see it, are you also shocked, what are your views and opinions on this?
A little feeling
Cursive writing also has a positive role in promoting Xiaokai, and the practical action of the "contemporary grass saint" Lin Sanzhi has also been well proven.
