Li Dui's Social Evaluation

There is an old house in a quiet courtyard in the west back street of Shangzhou, which is still decorated with the style of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. The yard is very big, and the study and residence are not very spacious. There is an old man in the house. He is the owner of Lilac Bookstore, a famous painter, a member of China Book Association, a librarian of Provincial Literature and History Research Institute, and Mr. Li, the former vice chairman of Shangzhou. Now he is over eighty, eighty years old, still dressed in cloth, full of energy and high spirits. "I searched all over the world for my life, but I didn't know there was me in the world", which was his motto for my own situation. Mr Li, who lives in the corner, is not alone. "The mountain is not high, but there are immortals." People visit him every day, including people from all walks of life, some asking for words, some talking about art, some asking for advice ... he can receive them seriously.

Mr. Li is not at leisure either. He was born in a family of calligraphy and painting in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. After graduating from the art department of Lanzhou Normal University 60 years ago, he began to work hard in Shangzhou Art Education Park for a long time. As an old-timer in the field of painting and calligraphy, he once trained a group of excellent painters and calligraphers for Shangluo. His paintings and calligraphy works are not only well-known in Shangzhou, but also widely collected by painting and calligraphy lovers and relevant units inside and outside the province. He has also published Eight Scenes and Ten Scenes in Shangzhou and Thousands of Words in Official Books.

Mr. Sha Menghai once said, "Calligraphy youth is more brilliant and middle-aged is more skillful, which is a contest of gerontology." . In his spare time, Mr. Li often insists on writing, exploring the changes of words, reading ancient poems and studying theoretical articles. For decades, profound cultural accumulation and rich life experience have given his books a thick stone aura. Recently, his newly published collection of calligraphy works, Writing Interesting, contains 300 epigrams in inscriptions on bronze, which is elegant, mellow and extraordinary in style.

In terms of calligraphy art, all four aspects are excellent, especially the seal script. His seals of Shang and Zhou bronzes such as Mao and Pan are natural and elegant. Xiao Zhuan benefited from the historic sites of Mount Tai and Yishan, and his brushwork is Gu Zhuo, with strong charm and natural charm. Official script is based on Zhang Qianbei and involves etiquette and Yellow River Monument, thus forming a new official style. Zhang Yuanchang, a critic of calligraphy and painting, once commented that his calligraphy "Mr. Zhang's 60-year skill accumulation has formed a solemn, Gu Zhuo, honest, vigorous, and square spirit, which has become a unique artistic style". Because Mr. Wang is honest, kind, approachable, indifferent to fame and fortune, and noble in artistic morality, his character, calligraphy, painting and art have been well received by all walks of life, especially by fellow painters. He took Yang Shoujing's creed of "Wandering in the Arts, Being the First Vocational High School, Being the Second Scholar and Being the Third Skillful". His personality and calligraphy art complement each other, and his calligraphy style is decent, which deserves to be a model and model for a generation.
