Huai Su is an outstanding calligrapher in the history of China. His cursive script is called "Crazy Grass". His pen is round and powerful, making it turn like a ring, unrestrained and smooth, just like Zhang Xu. Later generations called it "Zhang Dian vegetarian" or "drunk". It can be said that it is a classical romantic art, which has a far-reaching influence on later generations. He can also write poems and associate with poets such as Li Bai, Du Fu and Su Xun. Good at drinking, whenever drinking rises, regardless of walls, clothes, utensils, arbitrary writing, when people call it a "drunken monk." His cursive script was written by Zhang Zhi and Zhang Xu. Lu Tang, the general manager, said in his reading review: "Huai Su's cursive script changes at will with the help of electricity, and Huai Su's book is listed as a wonderful work in The Continuation of Books by Song and Zhu. The commentary said: "If a strong man draws his sword, the color of the gods will be moving. "
Huai Su-Artistic Features
Huai Su is good at using the pure momentum of the central pen as a big grass, such as "a whirlwind of showers, full of momentum", reaching the realm of "suddenly whistling three or five times, and a thousand words are full of walls". Although the speed is fast, Huai Su can cross the grass with few mistakes. Compared with the Notre Dame, Eating Fish, Bitter Bamboo Shoots, Zang Zhen, Zhu Tie and many other calligraphers, there are many golden hairs preserved, many of which have the style of Yan Zhenqing. For example, the thousand-character works of Weeds and Notre Dame are completely different from their crazy styles, which can also be said to be his outstanding points. The pen is round and powerful, making it turn like a ring, unrestrained and smooth, just like Zhang Xu. Later generations called it "Zhang Dian vegetarian" or "drunk". It can be said that it is a classical romantic art, which has a far-reaching influence on later generations.
Huai Su's cursive script has an artistic conception. To appreciate his cursive script, we must first grasp the overall momentum and understand its artistic conception and hazy beauty. Huai Su's calligraphy is mainly the expression of lines. The hazy beauty of Huai Su's cursive artistic conception is not only related to his diligence and superb writing ability, but also related to his natural character. Huai Su's cursive script is vivid and radiant. In his weeds works, it is often "only looking at Huai Su's brief introduction, but not seeing the five senses". The smoke is filled with confusion, but he can feel the rich brushwork, giving people a magnificent artistic enjoyment.
The external manifestations of Huai Su's cursive script are mainly winding and rotating, which are continuous. ZSZSZSZ used "cursive script" to describe his books, which reflected his writing speed. "... graceful as a wilting willow, swaying like a pine, dancing like a phoenix and winding like a dragon" embodies the rhyme of the book and shows the momentum of continuous winding in the writing process. "Practice makes perfect" and "painting with hands for the heart", Huai Su showed his skillful brushwork skills in his waves. When appreciating his weeds, the appreciator often feels its artistic charm with Huai Su's brushwork. Sometimes it seems that I can still see his traces, as if I were at the writing scene in Huai Su.
Huai Su-Artistic Achievement
The achievement of Crazy Grass is another manifestation of the peak of calligraphy in Tang Dynasty. The representatives are Zhang Xu and Huai Su. Zhang Xu is known as "the sage of grass" in history. Huai Su and Zhang Xu are generous and frank, informal, and especially like what is in the cup. It is said that Zhang Xu's "Drunk and Crazy" is to write a brief introduction to Huai Su, or to write a book with the first brush and ink. When I woke up, I thought God could not be restored. That one called Zhang Dian. " Huai Su was drunk nine times a day, and people often called him a drunken monk. He used to be in dozens of whitewashed corridors in the temple. Every time I feel angry after drinking, I write an urgent book on the powder wall, which is like a snake and stormy. The walls are strewn all over the place, like thousands of troops in Ma Benteng on the battlefield. Therefore, people call Huai Su a "madman". It is said that Huai Su and Zhang Xu are "crazy chasers".
Because Huai Su's cursive script is exquisite and unique, it has always been treasured by collectors. In the Song Dynasty alone, the imperial court collected as many as 10 1 species of Huai Su cursive script. Unfortunately, most of Huai Su cursive scripts collected by Song Yufu have been destroyed by the war. To commemorate Huai Su, Huai Su Park was built in Xiaoshui Road, Lingling District, Yongzhou City today. There are historical sites in the park. Huai Su became a monk and planted bananas to practice calligraphy. Mi Fei's "Haiyue Book Review": "Huai Su is like a strong man wielding a sword, and his spirit is moving, but he advances and retreats in a roundabout way." Many poets in the Tang Dynasty praised it, such as Li Bai's cursive music and Huai Su's master Manji's cursive music.
