? Shuishu is the general name of ancient Shui characters and ancient books, one of the 56 ethnic groups in China. Shuishu is a hieroglyph still used in the world, and it is an ancient writing symbol similar to Oracle Bone Inscriptions and inscriptions on bronze. Shui Shu has other honorary titles, such as Book of Changes and Encyclopedia of Shui Family, which is an important ancient book to interpret the long, vicissitudes and bitter history of Shui nationality. At the same time, Shui Shu is also known as "the precious living fossil in the treasure house of ancient culture in China", which has extremely high cultural relic value and literature value.
Brief introduction of Lu Chun
? Lu Chun, an expert in water calligraphy, is the third generation inheritor of water calligraphy in Sandu County, Guizhou Province. He is an expert member of China Translators Association, an outstanding scientific and educational talent in Qiannan and an expert in ink calligraphy in Qiannan. In 2006, he was admitted to Sandu County Civil Affairs College to study the translation of water calligraphy as an assistant translator. Up to now, more than 40 million words of Shui Shu have been translated, and translated notes such as Secretary Volume, Nine Planetary Volumes, Nine Pens Volume, Seven Manufactured Volumes, Greedy Huge Volumes, Descending the Virtue Volume, Spring Sound Volume and Zhengqi Monument Yao have been published, and the Notes on Common Words in Shui Shu have been compiled. Co-edited Uncovering Shui Shu —— An Interview with Mr. Shui Shu, Ren Chen Juan and Eight Greedy Juan, co-edited Directory of Inheritors of Mr. Shui Shu, Investigation and Research on Shui Yu, Bilingual Textbooks of Shui Han, etc. , and completed the project of the Ancient Books Office of the Provincial Committee of Religious Affairs, Interpretation of the Spring Sound Volume of Shui Shu. He has published more than 40 articles in domestic newspapers, presided over the custom activities of water calligraphy, and made contributions to the inheritance of water culture.
? The production time of Shuishu is very old, and its origin can be traced back to Zhixia's time. "The vast majority of ancient characters in Shuishu belong to ideographic characters, and Shuishu is magical and mysterious. So far, researchers have not completely uncovered its mystery.
? Hydrology is famous throughout the ages, and calligraphy shows temperament. Since ancient times, calligraphy and culture have been closely linked and inseparable. Calligraphers with lofty aspirations all regard the cultivation of internal strength as their lifelong homework, unknown and diligent.
? There are countless ancient people, and the traces of their books cannot be seen at a glance. They are treasures handed down from generation to generation, and we should learn from them with respect. The so-called learning books can't abandon the past. Only by stepping into the ancients and stepping out of them can you achieve great success.
To learn books, we should not only learn Chinese characters, but also learn some marginal arts. Book-the meaning of words, law-is the theory of statutes. Art should be spiritual, innovative, expressive and energetic. In a word, calligraphy is the statute of writing.
? Calligraphy is based on pen and ink, with the merits of books outside and the merits of gods inside. Mr. Qi Gong said: "Calligraphy is based on the use of pens, and writing requires hard work." The pen is driven by external force, but God has to be unsheathed and leap onto the paper, which is hard and beyond words. However, the merits of speaking words are indispensable. Wrist proficiency combined with word proficiency, body proficiency combined with ink proficiency can be regarded as a book. From ancient times to the present, combined with innovation, people can get god, but real numbers are not easy.
"Tian Xingjian, the gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement." Mr. Zhang Zhaolai's exploration and pursuit of water calligraphy is integrated into his own life and life, and he constantly improves and surpasses himself on the road of pursuit. He used the ancient calligraphy of the Shui nationality to express the colorful world of the water town, praising life, ideals and yearning. It shows the infinite charm of line ink discoloration and gives the viewer a space for daydreaming.
? Calligraphy, a peculiar peak, is built on the endless mountains of traditional culture. Mr. Zhang Zhaolai has accumulated a lot in tradition and made little progress, but he can learn from it in the history of artistic development. Mr. Zhang Zhaolai has a calm mind. He can stick to the truth and cultivate his mind in the hustle and bustle. He seeks spiritual sustenance and traces of art in decades of calligraphy. It is this obsession with art and devotion to Shuijia culture that prompted him to become a famous calligrapher of ancient Chinese characters.
? Appreciating Mr. Zhang Zhaolai's ink painting, we can see that the beauty of He Xiaosan is full of agility, calm and gentle. The charm is simple, the style is elegant, and it exudes a literati atmosphere and a bookish atmosphere, giving people a spiritual enjoyment of "poetic and self-improvement".
? Shi Tao once said: "The pen is beautiful when it is dry, and vulgar when it is wet. There are many diseases in pen and ink nowadays. In short, it is too literary, so it is not wet. Those who have seen this will know. " Mr. Zhang Zhaolai's uniqueness lies in making good use of dry brushwork and pursuing the land of "Taikooli" and "HarmonyOS System". The pen is simple, the outline is intermittent and looks vague and rough. So when writing, the pen gradually lags behind. This method focuses on the friction between pen and paper and is suitable for writing a lush and vigorous texture. In Mr. Zhang's works, this kind of friction is transformed into dry pen. As Mr. Dai Benxiao, a pioneer who makes good use of dry pen, said, "The brushwork is really fake, and it is also natural." It is precisely because the "reality" of dry pen is different from the dripping of ink and wash, but it shows the mystery and isolation caused by the chaos and primitive in Archean. Mr. Zhang Zhaolai's ink paintings are like the local accents of several hometowns, which makes him feel a long-lost kindness and warmth. Mr. Zhang Zhaolai's water book is like a cup of green tea. The more you taste, the better, and you are tireless. Mr. Zhang Zhaolai's water book is like a glass of wine. The more you drink, the more you enter wonderland. You won't get drunk if you drink it thousands of times. With his modern body, Mr. Zhang Zhaolai inherited Gu Zhuo's vivid calligraphy style, which is the mantle of the ancient calligraphy art, and integrated it with his own life, and spread it, which was affirmed by calligraphers and audiences. This is the power of culture itself and the result of national cultural genes.
? Art is endless, and calligraphy is endless. It is hoped that Mr. Zhang Zhaolai will take "the calligraphy art of ancient water characters" as a cultural belief, build his own relatively complete spiritual world, and shine brilliantly on the world calligraphy art stage with his artistic wisdom.
