The Jianghuai Freehand School of Painting began in the 60s of the 20th century, centered on Hefei and active in the Jianghuai region, and was founded by Mr. Xiao Longshi, a master of Chinese painting. Most of the disciples of Xiao Longshi and his followers who have been active in the Jianghuai region for a long time are the disciples of this school. This genre emphasizes the free and unrestrained brushwork, the pursuit of artistic conception and far-reaching atmosphere, and embodies the "bone-based method, Taoist nature, and natural artistic style" in traditional Chinese painting.
This symposium is an academic combing, exchange and dissemination of the Jianghuai freehand painting school, and helps the healthy development of Anhui calligraphy and painting. It shows the unique status and value of Jianghuai Daxiyi in the history of contemporary Chinese art, and contributes to the rise of calligraphy and painting culture in the Jianghuai region.
After the meeting, the artists splashed ink to share their experiences, and demonstrated the charm of JAC's freehand brush and ink through on-site pen exchanges. This form of interaction not only promotes the exchange and learning of art, but also injects new vitality into the inheritance and development of Jianghuai freehand.
