"Writers' Good Calligraphy and Painting: Book Series" is planned by Zhao Yanbiao, director of the editorial board of "Chinese Literary and Artist" magazine, and published by China Textile Publishing House, focusing on the prose, calligraphy and Chinese painting works of five writers. Including Wang Xiangfu's "Green Train Through the Long Night", Ye Mei's "Zhichun Collection", Li Hao's "Between Memory, Walking and Thinking", Xing'an's "Nature Is Like", and Zhang Ruitian's "And Slow", the content is the prose, calligraphy and Chinese painting works recently created by the five writers, aiming to promote the core of the Chinese humanistic spirit by combining literature and art, and create a new model of book content and publishing form.
At the beginning of the press conference, the congratulatory video of Zheng Weiliang, chairman and secretary of the Party Committee of China Textile Publishing House Co., Ltd., was played, and he said that "Writer's Good Calligraphy and Painting" is the perfect combination of writers' self-created American literature and self-created calligraphy and painting, and is a fruitful embodiment of the innovative development concept of the publishing house.
Zhao Yanbiao, the chief planner of "Writers' Good Calligraphy and Painting: Book Series", and four authors who came to the scene with the wind collection group shared the process and creative experience of this set of books. In his speech, Zhao Yanbiao emphasized that the prose, calligraphy and painting works of the five contemporary writers are integrated into a book, which is an innovative exploration of the form of publishing. In the past, the five writers all published literary books, but they had a deep foundation in calligraphy and painting, and when words could not fully express their inner thoughts, they placed their thoughts on calligraphy and painting, and created works in the style of "literati painting". The combination of literature and art expands the space of expression and brings readers a refreshing aesthetic feeling.
Wang Xiangfu, the author of "The Green Train Passes Through the Long Night", said when talking about the relationship between writing and painting, writing and painting are common, and painting has an influence on writing. The blank space of writing and painting landscapes is the same truth, although it seems that there is no single stroke, but in fact, there are more connotations to think about. Wang Xiangfu talked about this kind of feeling and experience from the creative process, which is very enlightening for the writer's creation, the more open the thinking and the more sophisticated the method, the better the work will be. Xing'an, the author of "Nature Is Like This", shared the creative concept of the book on the spot, hoping to inherit the spiritual core of the ancient literati and ink writers through this book. "Raising Horses with Brush and Ink" expresses the understanding and experience of painting horses from childhood to the present; "Talking about art with intelligence" refers to the friends who are both writers, calligraphers and painters, appreciating each other and talking about art together; "Looking at people with true temperament" shows the overlapping emotions between friends, relatives and colleagues. Li Hao, the author of Between Memory, Walking and Thinking, was very excited to attend this press conference, he had never published a collection of essays before, and his first publication was presented in the form of a trinity of articles, calligraphy and paintings, which was an incentive for him to explore in depth in various dimensions in the future.
Zhang Ruitian, the author of "And Slow", said that using prose and calligraphy to think about life in series is to continue the tradition of "slow life" of ancient literati and ink writers, and it is also a specific way to carry forward the characteristics of Chinese humanities. Ye Mei, the author of "Zhichun Collection", was unable to attend the meeting for some reason, and sent a special text to express her congratulations on the publication of this set of books and her creative feelings.
Tenzin, Honorary Vice Chairman of the China Writers Association, China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and President of the China PEN Center, said that books are an indispensable "treasure house" in a person's life, and to understand history, culture and literature from books, people need to enrich their material and spiritual life by "reading more books and reading good books". These famous writers who are very influential in the Chinese literary circle, through this new book launch, will present their works to Chongqing readers, to friends in Chongqing, to recommend their works to readers, and to expand their influence and dissemination of works; Friends communicated, and in the creation of future works, a wealth of materials and inspiration were accumulated.
Bai Gengsheng, vice chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, Liu Xinglong, winner of the Mao Dun Literature Award and honorary chairman of the Hubei Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles, Long Yi, vice chairman of the Tianjin Writers Association and author of "Latent", and Wu Huixia, executive director of Feng Yuxiang Poetry and Painting Institute, and a famous painter, expressed their loyal congratulations on the publication of this series of books, which will promote the deep integration of literature and art, and will also lead a new trend of such book publishing.
