The development of Chinese calligraphy art

The art of calligraphy is the quintessence of China and the representative of Chinese cultural elements, which is different from other art types Because of its unique plastic art and elegant aesthetic taste, it attracts people to speculate and appreciate, and feel the charm of the five thousand years of traditional culture of the Chinese nation. As society becomes increasingly informatized and internationalized, and the rapid rise and development of digital online media, the writing of Chinese characters once fell into an embarrassing situation. Chinese people are becoming more and more unfamiliar with the art of calligraphy, and have even developed to the point where they cannot write. What is culture? The premise of culture is writing, and knowledge without writing gradually becomes mechanical and boring, and even loses the fun of learning. The dissemination of calligraphy art is facing challenges from all aspects. In the face of changes in the social and cultural environment, how to use the competition mechanism to realize the marketization of calligraphy art dissemination and protect calligraphy culture? This is worth pondering, so we must stay clear-headed. Mind, insist on using mass media to lead the mainstream of the development of calligraphy art, purify the calligraphy art creation environment, let people strengthen their knowledge and understanding of traditional Chinese culture, let calligraphy art appreciators better understand the creator's intentions, and create a good The living environment of calligraphy art continues to enhance the self-confidence and pride of the Chinese people and promote the development of national calligraphy art. It is necessary to expand the social value of contemporary calligraphy art, tap the value of the convergence of art and science, and realize the sustainable development of calligraphy art.

The relationship between the appreciation and practice of calligraphy

The appreciation and practice of calligraphy are interconnected. There has never been a calligrapher who has "high vision but low hand". Most of the calligraphers of the past dynasties were calligraphy critics with a high degree of appreciation. They all attach great importance to "reading posts". The so-called "reading calligraphy" is to understand the artistic style and artistic techniques used or created by calligraphers through observing calligraphy and inscriptions, so as to improve one's own appreciation level. For a person who is interested in learning calligraphy, he also needs to pay attention to reading calligraphy, gradually learn the ability to analyze and appreciate calligraphy works, take advantage of their strengths and address their weaknesses, so as to continuously improve his calligraphy level. When analyzing and appreciating calligraphy works, if we accept them all without distinction, we will often make slow progress and even take detours. This is an extremely complex issue, with different opinions throughout the history, and there is still no single standard of appreciation.

Kang Youwei put forward ten criteria for commenting in "Sixteen Schools of Guangyi Shuangji", which are the so-called "Ten Beauties": "The first is strong and powerful, the second is the magnificent atmosphere, the third is the jumping of the brushwork." Yue, the fourth is the stipples are thick and thick, the fifth is the expressiveness of the mood, the sixth is the spirit is flying, the seventh is the interest is full, the eighth is the bones are deep, the ninth is the natural structure, and the tenth is the richness of flesh and blood. "Guo Shaoyu said in "How to Appreciate". Six standards are put forward in "Calligraphy": "1. Shape, look at the natural structure, horizontal and vertical balance; 2. Vigor, look at the strength of the pen and ink; 3. The mood, should be flying; 4. School, do not stick to the inscriptions, do not follow the inscriptions. The standards for reading calligraphy are: five, talent and learning, relationships other than calligraphy, six, atmosphere, simplicity and tranquility. ”

These can be used as a reference when analyzing and appreciating calligraphy works. If further summarized, it is nothing more than the two words "form" and "spirit". The so-called "shape" refers to the appearance composed of special strokes and lines, including the strokes of the characters, the structure of the characters, and the layout of the characters. The so-called "spirit" refers to the inner spirit in the above-mentioned shapes, including the power of the strokes. , momentum, demeanor, emotion and other aspects. Therefore, when appreciating calligraphy works, we should not only look at the shape of each stroke, each word and the entire calligraphy, but also its pen power, momentum and expression. If the appearance is beautiful and colorful, and the inner part is energetic and spiritual, this is what people usually call a good work that has both form and spirit.
