Text / Shen Gaogao

He returned to China, was served and lived, and was personally enticed. Huang Shi passed on the hand-taught, the law is auspicious, the return to the time of the former sages, the analysis of doubts, the exploration of understanding, the study of pain, the cold and summer do not waste, so gradually peep into the mystery of pen and ink, the beginning of the appreciation of the joy, enlighten the collection, the truth is from this.

——Liu Zuochou

Liu Zuochou and Huang Binhong, who are of different generations and are not limited to their age, but they have forgotten their friendship for many years, which can be called a good story. Liu Zuochou has preserved eighteen masterpieces by Binweng. It is on public display for the first time more than 30 years later. The content contains the various stages of the 40s and 50s, landscapes, flowers, and calligraphy. These warm works make people think about the past, and there are efforts to bring Bing Weng art to the world art forest, carry forward the charm of traditional culture, and entrust infinite feelings.

In 1933, Liu Zuo was appointed as the president of the Chinese Painting Research Association of Jinan University, and because of the introduction of Chen Zhongfan, the dean of literature, and Su Qianying, an assistant professor of the Faculty of Arts, he went to Mr. Huang's apartment on Saposai Road (now Tamsui Road) to invite Mr. Huang to be the landscape painting tutor of the school's Chinese Painting Research Association, and to give lectures at the Liantao Pavilion once a week, and Mr. Chen readily agreed. At that time, Bin Weng was seventy years old, and not long after Shu returned to Shanghai, he became a year-old friend with Liu Zuochoi, who was in his early twenties. Liu also began to follow Huang Binhong and learn the road of landscape painting. once recalled: When he returned to China, he was served and lived, and he was kind and seduced. Huang Shi passed on the hand-taught, the law is auspicious, the return to the time of the former sages, the analysis of doubts, the exploration of understanding, the study of pain, the cold and summer do not waste, so gradually peep into the mystery of pen and ink, the beginning of the appreciation of the joy, enlighten the collection, the truth is from this.

In 1929, Liu Zuochou (first from right) was photographed with his classmates at the gate of Shanghai and Ji

Liu Zuo's word "Jun Liang", this is the number that Bin Weng gave him when he was in Jinan. At that time, Binong accepted the treatment of the faculty of Jida University: a monthly salary of 40 yuan, two hours a week, car pick-up, and the letter of appointment was written. The Liantao Museum is the location of the Chinese Painting Research Association of Jinan University. As the president and secretary of the Chinese Painting Research Association, Liu Zuochou has many specific daily contacts with Binweng, and he has been contaminated for a long time, so he has a deep yearning for Chinese art. Under the guidance of Bin Weng, Liu has achieved profound attainments in painting and poetry, studying the subtleties of calligraphy and painting, and collecting the fun of identification. This experience also laid a solid foundation for the friendship between the two later in life. In the 40s, Lau returned to Singapore to join his father in the business of local product cultivation and other transactions. The two also had a correspondence all the time, and Binong often sent them in the form of paintings.

In April 1947, Su Qianying was going to Nanyang to inspect education, and Liu Zuoqiao sent a letter to invite Binong to accompany him to Singapore. In the following year, Liu Zuoti sent the poem "Master Huang Binhong on Moro Island", and gave it "Spring Tree Picture in the South of the Yangtze River". In this nostalgic work from afar, Jun Liang fondly recalled the Tao Ran past with the teacher Bin Weng in the "Lotus Tao Pavilion". In the troubled times, the world is different, and the teacher's kindness is especially nostalgic:

"Moro Island Huaihuang Binhong Master":

The sea breeze blows my clothes, and the waves sound on my side. Reading my teacher, a long-term guest in Yanbei.

Eight years on each side, the sound of the question is not available. Poor and lonely pitching, depressed and thinking!

There is a lot of sad wind in Yanbei, and the frost is severe in September. The yellow sand is flying, and the sideburns are red.

The war has been in turmoil for a long time, and the captivity has been trapped by the enemy for a long time. In the drift of distant imagination, the hardships are unpredictable.

The year before last, when I read the newspaper, I had to entrust myself with an ancient academic position. I am afraid that because of the elderly, the enemy will come to coerce.

After searching for it all his life, he had three habits in ancient times: stubborn stone calligraphy and painting, and treasures are all famous.

There are also wives and children, weak and childish. One by one, it must be supported, and everything is difficult.

Long Zhong is more than 80 years old, how can he support it? Reading these few times, tears are dripping.

Reminiscing about the past, I was obsessed with ink. Dripping graffiti, unsolved real dot painting.

and the crown to travel to the university, the beginning of the fortunate is the teacher's seat. There is a hall called Liantao, a deep fetish lecture room.

The ripples surround the museum, and the wood is at the level of the court. Every day, the teacher explained in detail.

The calligraphy and painting book have the same origin, and the pen and ink method is also the same. Pingliu round re-change, Si for the five wonderful pen.

It is also necessary to avoid the four diseases, the head and tail, and the waist and knees. The shade breaks the coke, and the ink method is seven.

The charm is self-generated, and the hypothetical qi comes out. It has been refined and should be returned to simplicity.

First enter the law tour, and finally surpass the law and the law. Oral and hand-taught, authentic for reference.

The origin of sectarian analysis, the evolution of ancient and modern Ming Dynasty. Don't dare or rest assured, boxing will always remember.

There are six or seven classmates, and Tao Ran studies together. Anger gradually soaked in lewdness, and I reached when I was old-eyed.

The average amount is the name of the word, and it is reluctant to cut deeply. In this way, it is subtly spread, and the painting is like hunger and thirst.

It is often in the ascendancy, and it is not felt that the inkstone is exhausted. The sound of birds falling from the trees, and the flowers breathe through the windows.

The good situation has suddenly moved, and the salary is lost. Geng Gengming Center, four years of spring breeze.

The storm is not over, and the meeting is safe. Looking back on the past and recovering the present, you can not worry about the collection.

In his later years, Bin Weng maintained frequent exchanges with the art markets in Guangdong, Hong Kong and even overseas, among which friends from the south such as Liu Zuochou, Huang Jusu, Weng Guiqing, and Zhang Hong were important promoters of Bin Weng's art. This is very important for the inheritance of traditional style, and it is also a lifeline that cannot be ignored for the development of Huang Binhong in his twilight years. During this period, the exchange with the South went beyond the scope of personal friendship and can be said to rise to the concern for Chinese painting as a whole. Since 1949, Liu Zuo has raised funds to print a collection of paintings for the 86-year-old Binong. In 1953, he asked Su Qianying to go to Hangzhou and send the first draft of the newly written "Painting Chapter" to Liu Zuochou and ask him to print it. Zhang Gu said: "The first draft of Huang Zhang's "Painting Chapter" was sent to Liu Junliang (for preparation), and then sent to the printed version, and the first draft was checked and corrected, with slight revisions. The long song of "Painting Chapter" is a masterpiece of the old man in his later years, which is intended to "pay tribute to the rise and fall of Chinese painting". Chen Shutong has the words "A piece of "Painting Studies" has a salary, open your eyes and look at the new world". In the spring and autumn of 2023, China Guardian released the "Painting Chapter" from his family collection and the "Painting Chapter" exhibited at the Hong Kong Museum of Art in 1995, which caused a strong market response.

In 1935, Huang Binhong sketched in Victoria Shan in Hong Kong

Bin Weng, who is over 80 years old, is diligent in communicating Chinese and Western painting theories as his vocation, and claims to make painting a bright future. Here, Weng Yunqiu and Liu Zuochou have a lot of help and correspondence with him, and it is also in this dialogue and exchange that Bin Weng in his twilight years actively explores his painting experience and constantly broadens his horizons. Bin Weng once wrote: "Mo Tianyijun of Macao collects ancient books, calligraphy and paintings in the southeast, and Weng Qiujun of Shantou City is fond of ancient and modern calligraphy and painting, and is now the mayor, Nanyang Su Qianying and Liu Zuo are preparing to restore Jinan University in Shanghai. With the convenience of circulars, there are still many paintings". Weng Yunqiu, a former mayor of Shantou, was friendly with the painter and rich in collections. Huang Binhong once mentioned in a 1946 letter: "Weng Xunqiujun of Shanshi City is fond of ancient and modern calligraphy and painting, and is now the mayor." Later, he also mentioned Weng many times in his letter to Huang Jusu, which shows the deep friendship between the two. According to the chronology, in the summer of 1940, Bin Hong once made "Mountain Dwelling Qinghua Picture Scroll" and "Songlai Pavilion Picture Scroll" for Weng Yunqiu in the Jiaomo method.

In a letter with Liu Zuochou in 1953, Bin Weng also wrote about his work that changed slightly from studying the paintings of the Northern Song Dynasty, explored the Tao, and accumulated proudness: "Brother Yajian, Junliang." I met Brother Su Qianying, and I heard that I was happy and healthy, and I was like a heartfelt blessing and a consolation. Nanxuan Lulu, the cheap eyes near the internal cataract, hospitalized for treatment, for several months, fortunately can regain his sight, still in the adjustment, a little later or when the old calligraphy and painting manuscript. The clumsy book "Painting Chapter" was sent to the comrades of the North and South Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and there were many joys. The revival of painting in the Daoxian era, Xie Lifu, Wu Hewu, Song Guangbao, Meng Litang in central Guangdong, Bao Shenbo in Jiangnan, Zhao Yushu, Weng Songchan, Wu Suzhai, Jinshi calligraphy and painting are unique, and the categories are clustered, Zhuo Zhuo is marked, and there are more than 100 people. It is intended to be edited into a book, to illustrate anecdotes, and to also improve the small subsidy of culture. It is a pity that there have been a lot of devastation in the past few decades, and now only Beijing and Shanghai are slightly deaf. This year, the clumsy painting has changed slightly from the Northern Song Dynasty paintings, accumulating proud works, dyeing completion, and selecting the best postage. Bin Hong bowed. ”

Huang Binhong's international influence gradually opened up, and he enjoyed a high reputation in the Guangdong and Hong Kong art circles. His artistic practice has been continuously tested by the market, and overseas fixed parts have also become an important guarantee for Binong's living expenses. The laborious ones in the middle are Zhang Hong, Huang Jusu, and Liu Zuochou. He once said, "Friends have clumsy paintings between foreign countries, both north and south, and feel even more tired." There is still no shortage of school teachers in Hong Kong Island, Kwan Liang, Sin Chew King Chiu and our ethnic groups. The former lotus and your friends also inquired about the drawing. Although I don't want to paint my life, I smell that there are lovers and it, I am happy to have an ink edge, I should taste it, I see and hear more, and I am a good friend. "The purchase of Huang Binhong's calligraphy and paintings by Guangdong friends is the most specific in the letter to Huang Jusu, and there is the most tacit understanding between them. "Recently, there has been an increase in the number of people who have studied painting theory, and the paintings of the people of the time have been very popular, and some have been introduced to foreign countries. From Hong Kong to run gold, feel the lotus. In the early fifties, Huang Binhong's personal painting style was changing, in the process of painting, he found more resonance of bosom friends, and also paid more attention to the application of pen, ink and paper. New rice paper in the south, soybean milk alum, not suitable for ink, the old Xuan of the Forbidden City is gradually not easy to find, the factory in Lazhong is still sent, can be used for painting, teeth and moist examples are very much, recently canceled, not in vain to avoid taxes, for the day and night to see the lake and mountains Qingqi, thinking about changes, answering the sound of the ear. ”

After Binong's death, Liu Zuochou led and organized a number of Huang Binhong commemorative exhibitions, which can be summarized as follows:

In his later years, Huang Binhong practiced his open and inclusive attitude, "standing up, carrying forward the spirit of our folk studies, stretching out his arms to the world, and preparing to shake hands with anyone who comes" His life: editing, lecturing, appraisal, writing, creating, and dealing in antiques, colorful. He was a renowned banker, collector, painter, poet, connoisseur, honorary advisor to the Hong Kong Museum of Art for many years, and a recipient of the Order of the British Empire.

In 1949, Liu Zuochou went to Hong Kong as a manager of Sihaitong Bank and settled in Hong Kong. He retired in 1986, a period of 40 years, which shows that he is loyal to his duties and valued by his colleagues. During his tenure, he often had correspondence with Binong. It is also influenced by Huang Binhong, who saw the flow of Chinese literature out of foreign countries, and was deeply afraid of Oriental people, who wanted to study and appreciate traditional art in the future, and had to go to Europe and the United States. Because of his determination to purchase ancient masterpieces, he hoped to preserve some of them. Over the course of 40 years of collecting and spending countless money and energy, he has systematically collected a number of cultural relics from the mainland to Hong Kong and overseas, and the scale of the collection is considerable.

Due to fate, he was named after the word "Xubai" in Yi Bingshou's book in the Qing Dynasty, so he named his collection "Xubai Zhai Collection of Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy". This is also a true portrayal of Liu Zuochou, a humble gentleman with a humble heart, with a gentle temperament, an open mind, a warm heart, a courtesy, filial piety at home, both art and a careful guide to those who seek benefits in the future.

Among them, he did not hesitate to "seize the treasure" with a lot of money. In 1990, he made a sensation by donating more than 300 pieces from his collection to the newly established Hong Kong Museum of Art. The scale of the museum is perfect, and the "Xubaizhai Collection of Chinese Calligraphy and Painting Museum" and storage rooms and research rooms are set up on the second floor for the exhibition and collection of cultural relics. The décor is said to be over HK$20 million. And the bronze statue of Liu Gong was placed in the museum, and the "virtual white" Zhai number was hung as a memorial, and the Queen of England also awarded the Order of the Order of Honor to Liu Gong for praise.

To this day, the Hong Kong Museum of Art still holds "Void White Zhai" as its permanent exhibition, and the exhibits are changed regularly. The recent "Love Letters" series of exhibitions divides the exhibits into five parts: "Love", "Family Affection", "Teacher-Student Affection", "Friendship" and "National Affection". The preface of the exhibition tells the story of Mr. Liu Zuochou, the owner of "Xubaizhai": "Calligraphy and painting have love", and there is another moving love letter here. In order to preserve these national treasures, Mr. Liu began to actively and systematically purchase them. Over the years, he spent a lot of savings, and even when he encountered an accident, he still clung to the protection of his paintings. In the end, it was possible to establish a pivotal and prestigious collection of Chinese paintings and calligraphy in Xubaizhai. Mr. Liu Chochoi has a passion for calligraphy and painting, and his selfless donation allows the public to appreciate this precious collection, which shows his great love and enthusiasm for the preservation of cultural relics.

Mr. Liu, who is active in Singapore and Hong Kong, has a rich collection of five cars. There is no large amount of property to buy a house, there is no car to travel, and he is a kind old man who looks ordinary on the road. Unpretentious, no astonishing rhetoric. Zhang Daqian's friend Feng Ruofei described him as "rich and rival the country, poor and unbeatable": he is rich because his collection of Chinese famous paintings and calligraphy is priceless. said that he was poor, and he worked hard all his life to collect and retain the essence of traditional Chinese cultural relics, and his life was very simple. Enriching the collection with one's own strength can be described as "a cloth cloth proud of the king", such a legend is unprecedented.

Huang Binhong and Liu Zuochou have crossed time and space, shuttled through decades of friendship, teacher-student relationship, family affection, friendship, affection to sex, and touching heartstrings. In this collection, Liu's eighteen masterpieces can be described as "virtual white pearls", each piece of pearl, and the ink color is brilliant. Enter the immortal time and space of Xubaizhai, feel the powerful spiritual energy of Binweng, and the ancestors are especially there, endlessly.

Guest: What is the way of the pen?

Said: The clouds are cloudy, and the changes of the pen itself are also. When it comes to drawing, it is still about the role of the overall situation. It can be said that "from beginning to end, the pen has a direction, continuous and continuous, and the style is continuous", which is the vertical and horizontal strokes, all over the whole painting, as if the blood and nerves are permeated throughout the body. "The intention is to save the pen first, the pen is in the mind, the painting is all in the intention, and the image is complete", yes, it is not the only pen when you must see life, and when there is no pen, you must also have the inner meaning of the divine machine, and the rest of the meaning is inexhaustible. The finite shows the infinite, and this is also said.

Guest: Huang Gong's painting, landscape is the sect. Gu Mountain is not like a mountain, the tree is not like a tree, it is scattered vertically and horizontally, and there is nothing to be found. Why?

Said: To view the painting within a short distance, it is the way to rub the broken monument and the remnants, not the way to view the painting. Overlooking the distance. "I don't see the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain", the mountains and rivers between heaven and earth are not a hundred miles away, and the mountains and rivers on the Susu are not as similar as a few cases.

Guest: Vertical and horizontal, if there is a mess of firewood, that is, the so-called pen and ink of the son?

Said: The path of the husband's pen and ink is deep and mysterious, and it is not foolish and shallow to know. In other words: calligraphy and painting have the same origin, and the law is also the same. The preface uses the pen, the strength of the pen, the flexibility of the wrist, the change of posture, the arrangement of the pattern, the emphasis on the spirit, and the balance of calligraphy and painting.

Liu Zuochou is one of the main promoters of Huang Binhong's art, and also serves as a channel for customizing Huang Binhong's works on behalf of other village sages. In Huang Binhong's letter to Su Qianying, it was mentioned that Liu Zuochou "introduced" more than 20 paintings, and "it is not easy to get the old Jiayi in the capital". This piece of "Qingcheng Mountain" made for "Tingqiu" can be used as a proof. Combined with the other two works of "Tingqiu", the creation time is also in 1946~1947.

Those who see the light and heavy, the back, and the obscure are the ink, the one who expresses the vigor of the air, the ink, and the one who looks bright and beautiful, the ink. The pen shows the character of the painting, and the ink does not fail to express the character of the painting, and the ink sees the abundance of the painting, and the pen does not fail to taste the abundance of the painting. Although there is a distinction between inside and outside, the spiritual atmosphere is the same at the beginning.

However, it is not the ambition of smoke and haze, and the hidden bosom of the fisherman is difficult to speak.

If you don't read thousands of books, you can't travel thousands of miles, and it's hard to talk about the realm.

The bosom is ugly, the realm is cramped, and it is difficult to speak.

This path is not something that can be understood overnight, and it is not possible to distinguish it in Russia.

And what does it mean to be hasty? If it means that it is not neat, it is necessary to know that the clumsiness of the painting has nothing to do with the neatness of the form.

If the words seem to be at a loss, it is necessary to know that the painting is not realistic.

What does an artist write? The real thing is cloudy, the introduction is just the introduction, and the sustenance is just that. The ancients had a saying: The scenery is on the surface of the haze, and the excitement is on the top of the deep mountains. The scenery is also, the excitement is also, the table is also, the top is also, the solution can save the painting, and you can understand the reason that the painter does not aim at realism.

Artists, natural plus artificial, large pieces of repetition and refining. Artificial refining, the technology is still good. The scenery is exciting, and the mind is still open. The two complement each other, and the party is perfect. Foolish foreword technology, afterword spirit; one thing and two bodies, there is no contradiction.

Ordinary people specialize in one family, so the appearance is often the same.

The Huang family has taken advantage of the strengths of others, and has entered the realm of transformation, so the number of families is endless.

Ordinary people do not go out of a hundred miles, day and night with the ancients a faction and a family, so a hill and a ravine, pure like seven treasures of the tower, piled up.

Or it is like a puzzle play, inspecting a mountain in the east and a water in the west, and patching it together.

Huang Gong traveled to the mountains to visit the ancients, reading dozens of cold and summer.

The smoke and mist surround the chest, and the magic of creation is contained at the bottom of the wrist.

Therefore, put the pen for it, or collect thousands of miles at hand, or draw a corner for a huge banner, or write twilight, or like a rainy scene, or the brightness of the Wing Chun Dynasty, or the autumn of the West Mountain, cloudy and sunny days, vary at any time, dilute the comfort, depressed and generous, and change according to the situation.

The difference in the picture and the multifaceted structure are the result of the unavoidable.
