Appreciation of Li Zejiang's works
Li Zejiang has been swimming in the Ink Sea for more than 40 years, and he has been working tirelessly. Creative works of art such as "Chart of National Fortunes," "Dragon Horse Spirit," "Six Reincarnations," and "Turning Qiankun" are rare, shocking the world, and melting into the heavens; the calligraphic works written by them, such as the Diamond Sutra, the Tao Te Ching, the Hai Na Bai Chuan, the Tranquility and the Distant Horizon, and the Dragon, are outstanding. While studying ink landscapes and freehand flowers and birds for a long time, he constantly appreciates the law, interest and charm of various types of writers. His calligraphy is exquisite, especially good at grass, the traditional work is very deep, and the innovative concept is very unique. His works are both majestic and introverted, but also deep and natural, and his artistic style is unique, which is collected by many large halls and dignitaries at home and abroad, and is presented by the president of the state as a state gift to foreign presidents. He has been selected by the Ministry of Culture, the China Federation of Literature and Other Departments to be included in the "Chinese Art Everyone" and "China's Top Ten Calligraphers", and listed as "Chinese Powerful Art Masters" and "Art Masters Going to the World". He has deep knowledge in the fields of philosophy and history, literature and art, invention and creation, and has been selected as a cover figure by many well-known magazines and large albums in the country, and hired as an advisor and editorial board member. He is the inventor of the "Chinese spring brush", and has been praised as the "father of the pen" by the people's daily, the public science and technology newspaper and other media.
In his studio in Beijing, Li Zejiang immersed himself in the cultivation of inscriptions and ink, and entered the ethereal realm of art. He attached great importance to writing the Han Li Wei Monument, and repeatedly experienced Zhang Xu's "Four Ancient Poems", Huai Su's "Self-Narrative Post", Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface", Zhiyong's "Thousand Character Text", "Jiwang Sheng's Order", and Yan Zhenqing, Mi Fu and other famous posts. He also passed through the true, grass, seal, and various famous calligraphy posts. When pondering and selecting a post, it is "firmly determined that Qingshan does not relax", and under the premise of mastering the traditional brushwork, it is practiced persistently and without distraction, until it is written that both form and spirit are available, and then it is integrated and formed its own style of writing. He has a special love for Wei Bei and Han Li, directly following the Wei and Jin wind bones, learning from the Northern Dynasty Kai fan, enriching the calligraphy language, and creating a unique calligraphy work with the fusion of stele and kai, super Mai Xionghun.
As early as 2003 to 2005, Li Zejiang founded the World Dream Association and the Chinese Classic Calligraphy and Painting Institute in Chongqing and Beijing, and served as the first president and president. Under the leadership of Li Zejiang, based in Beijing and facing the whole country, the Academy of Painting carried out exchanges and research on the art of calligraphy and painting at home and abroad, displayed the unique charm of Chinese calligraphy culture, completed a major scientific research project for the invention and research of the "spring brush", organized and carried out many large-scale calligraphy exhibitions, national collection of styles, and social welfare activities, and produced a relatively good social influence. Li Zejiang hopes that in the near future, another Chinese calligraphy university will be established, and unremitting efforts will be made to inherit and carry forward the Chinese calligraphy art.
Li Zejiang believes that the current situation of calligraphy should be analyzed according to the characteristics of Chinese history: Wei and Jin calligraphy should be taken as the foundation, Zhong Zhang Xixian calligraphy should be taken as the aesthetic starting point, and the cultivation should be drawn from the development process of calligraphy in the Qin and Tang dynasties. Tang Dynasty calligraphy has reached a certain height through prosperity and is worthy of contemporary emulation, but it is a pity that the advanced norms and capping behavior of its official calligraphy and calligraphy are very regrettable, and the chaotic array and arbitrary penmanship of Song calligraphy have since become impure, especially the rise of Song characters, and then the combination with the current blind advocacy of writing norms, so that calligraphy has lost its due momentum of development. Contemporary times should highlight the bones of the kaixing style, the original source, and the regeneration of the eight bodies. Extensively unite calligraphy forces such as Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, and cooperate with the promotion and application of Chinese character science, so that the world can understand, understand, and master Chinese calligraphy, and make Chinese calligraphy the highest art full of the wisdom of all mankind.
