Between Xie Wuliang and Mr. Ma Yifu, Chao Yi's calligraphy acquired the character of the Six Dynasties. It's not easy to have such a state at such an age. -Yu Dafu (China scholar and poet)
Chaoyi is first and foremost a calligrapher, a calligrapher who has been promoted from learning to learning. Chaoyi's attitude towards art is very pious, simple, devoted and thorough. Others can get the same proof from his works. His calligraphy has gone through a stage of wildness and individuality. A long time ago, I felt the quality of an excellent artist in Chaoyi. I firmly believe that I will make amazing achievements in calligraphy one day, and I expect him to be a late bloomer and experience a rich life course.
—— Ceng Laide (Executive Dean of Calligraphy and Seal Cutting of China National Painting Academy)
Extraordinary calligraphy, style and skills can be very good. This seems simple, but it is not easy. People who show off their skills are easy to hurt their charm, while those who advocate style are like wasting pen and ink. Transcendence can grasp the sense of direction and methodology at the same time, which is the proof of literacy and ability.
-Bao Xianlun (Chairman of Zhejiang Calligraphers Association)
The transcendental book is honest and clever, and there is a mystery in the middle of every writing. Husband's book must obey the law, every time there is nowhere. Originated from qi, born from qi, also called breath. Liang Zhaoming is a prince and his words are lifeless. Books are different! In addition to studying in the morning, suddenly rising, walking or grass, all have the image of literary spirit.
-Liu Zhengcheng (editor-in-chief of The Complete Works of China's Calligraphy)
Try to pretend to be born, think of Xanadu, and sigh downtown. I don't know that Chaoyi has worked hard for ten years and gained a lot in Beijing. He is no longer from Sichuan! Chaoyi entered the WTO with the idea of being born, and calligraphy and painting have seen the trend of green fire and are admired by peers. Chaoyi is not expected to be a problem tomorrow.
Zhang Tie-Lin
With his short life experience and study time, Tang Chaoyi can better understand and grasp the essence of culture and art from a certain part, perhaps because of his skill of "judging by appearances", just as he can lift his weight without "rules" when reading, writing and doing things. Just like its personality, transcendental calligraphy is still ethereal, light and quaint. At first glance, his books are sparse, neat and simple, and full of natural interest. Whether they are perfect or not, they are always influenced or rigid.
-Ma Xiao (a famous calligrapher and calligraphy theorist)
Whether it's for writing, being a man, writing, drawing, or doing things, we generally don't need to have such high expectations and be so hypothetical and polite about transcendence. There is no doubt that Chaoyi will succeed! Talent is generally the highest evaluation of a young talent like Chaoyi, but Chaoyi still exceeds this evaluation. Talent is just a natural need for him. He will put all his strength into hard work, instead of over-exerting his talents, which makes him feel that he is a well-proportioned person among his peers. He knows how to work hard, not arrogant and modest. Such a superb art can be a celebrity! Unexpectedly! It's for the transcendental!
-Idiot (famous calligrapher critic, CEO of calligraphy net)
Transcendence is very cute. His calligraphy and painting creation naturally shows his stubbornness, naivety and stubbornness. His pen, whether it is a tablet or a post, shows a kind of inner stubbornness and persistence. Of course, this is an insistence on elegance. Chaoyi is a man with cultural connotation, a man who can settle down and stay mentally. His pen and ink are not only connected with the spirit of the ancients, but also his mental anxiety as a contemporary cultural person. What it conveys to you is a spiritual shock. For example, when he studies He, he doesn't really want to learn from He's form, but to take God from him. On the surface, what he is learning is actually what he is using to express his spirit and state of mind and add some rich texture to his calligraphy lines! Chao's legacy is far more than his, such as Shen and even in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. In fact, he is still the spiritual legacy of Xie Wuliang, Meng Liu and Zhang Daqian.
—— Zhu Zhongyuan (deputy director of editorial department of China Calligraphy Magazine, calligraphy theorist)
I am delighted with Chao Yi's love for Ma Yifu's calligraphy, and admire his courage even more. When reading Chaoyi's calligraphy, we can think of some words: for example, serene, handsome and simple, which is a feeling of slow progress, like a trickle. Although it is not a wave stimulus, it is refreshing and lasts for a long time. I think this feeling is also very important and precious, that is, for an art connoisseur, your presentation. From the transcendental works, I feel that kind of conversion to culture, that kind of introspection and correction that regards art as technology today. I think what Chaoyi is doing is a cause that can be expressed by "greatness". He approached the sages of the past with art and mind. When today's learners take technology as their ability and show off their skills as their fun and skills, they forget the origin of art, forget "the book carries the Tao" and forget ".
-Ding Jian (editor-in-chief of Ten Children magazine and calligraphy critic)
The sketches in Chaoyi's works, such as notes and inscriptions, are even more wonderful. It should be said that the transcendental Chinese characters are mainly a kind of physical beauty, paying attention to momentum and brushwork. Fine print works are more charming and interesting. The sketches of the ancients often focused on elegance and beauty in aesthetics. In the Qing Dynasty, it was fascinating to learn how to chase Dong Qichang, but Shu Dong seldom realized his physique in Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy, so the more he learned, the weaker he became, and he fell into a morbid aesthetic. Although Chao Gai's works are elegant and exquisite, he participated in the brushwork of seal script and official script, especially in form, which gave him a new atmosphere, simple and elegant, and contained vigorous and graceful. Intuitively, it is more like Gu Zhuo. After careful reading, there are new ideas in the ancient meaning, and a bookish atmosphere permeates it. Just like a bowl of green tea picked in the mountains, the entrance only feels fragrant and pleasant, extremely sweet and memorable. Only Jin Nong and Zhao, two sages, entered the realm of sketch calligraphy, and their intentions were direct and calm, which was comparable to those of the ancients.
-Xie (editor-in-chief of Yijing magazine, calligraphy theorist)
According to Chao Yi's knowledge, talent and style, I think his running script is more suitable for revealing his heart. His running script works can be clumsy and dense, but his brushwork can go deep into the bone method of the Tang Dynasty, which is full of bones and tendons, and can be accurately extracted occasionally when turning pages. The pen is bold and calm, but it can be warm and mellow, thorough and delicate. It is exaggerated to say that the three-dimensional sense is often aggregated, sometimes hovering in the air. Occasionally, I send out a work with the feelings of the times, and the brushwork is interesting, which shows the mystery between Zhang Chi and his mind.
—— Zhang Ping (Academic Secretary of Calligraphy and Seal Carving Institute of China National Painting Academy)
The difference between Tang Chaoyi and Tang Chaoyi is that they never regard calligraphy as a survival technology and treat it in isolation like some people in society. It is to combine calligraphy with the overall improvement of personal overall cultural literacy. Chao Gai is good at writing small letters, taking two kings' small letters as the method, but he does not deliberately reflect the perfection of statutes, but pays more attention to the expression of spiritual charm, and writes casually and generously. However, the natural eruptive bookishness gives his low-key works a gentle and gentle quality.
-Fu Defeng (calligraphy theorist)
Chaoyishu, Shibei and Nantie are unified in form and spirit. Looking at its long and big system, it not only has magnificent horses, but also has temperament and tolerance. There are also two kings, Fengshen and Yifan, one is gentle and calm, one is coherent and gentle, one is strong and open, and the other is elegant and beautiful; An autumn wind fills the north and a misty rain fills the south, which can be resolved under the skill of detachment. Isn't this a great innovation? Look at his elaborate letters, showing another artistic look. The potential of the North Monument is hidden in it again, and only the beauty reveals its beauty, which shows the trace of Xiang Bo's book; The method of posting in the south has been forgotten by transcendence and directly entered the realm of "impossible". Its face is quiet, the smell of human fireworks disappears, it is Zen and naive, and it has won Hongyi's ignorance. Gaiqi is still young, and his understanding of calligraphy and Taoism has reached such a state, which is really fortunate. Those of us who mix in society should be ashamed of ourselves, cherish the past time and devote ourselves to copying.
—— Huang Chongchao
Comments on Tang Chaoyi's Paintings
Exquisite pen writing, refined and full of interest, is more natural because of its reading and nourishing qi. Paintings are expensive and have an ancient meaning. Kang Nanhai said: There are three ancient meanings, one is truth, the other is simplicity, and the third is simplicity. All three are complacent. The transcendental pen and ink was written by the ancients, which is the right way, and calligraphy is based on it. From this, I painted and completed the transformation from calligraphy to painting. Master Shi Tao said: Today's people should not be lofty, but they are ill with writing for tricks. Chao used reason to avoid the vulgar way, made a living by brushing lines, and understood the teachings of the old-timers on the mechanics of brushing lines, so he was able to enter the Ming Dynasty.
Chao Yi's calligraphy and painting all have ancient meanings. The painting is simple and natural, with no chisel marks. Although it's still fresh in my mind, it's very interesting and interesting. If they are mature after birth, they will climb to the top. Chaoyi calligraphy is full of interest, and the pen is simple and straightforward, reaching the hearts of the ancients. It will definitely enter old age, and I have no doubt about it.
—— Cheng Dali (famous painter, librarian of the Central Museum of Literature and History)
Chaoyi calligraphy is good at painting and learning from Buddhism. He can learn from mental images, overcome Buddhism, and become mature as a teenager. Today, the painting world can be based on benevolence, and he is called a leader.
-Wu Yueshi (famous painter)
Chinese painting, especially flower-and-bird painting, is a question of painting knowledge, painting accomplishment and painting character, which requires lifelong efforts. Besides, it needs outstanding talents. Chaoyi has all the above qualities. He is knowledgeable, sincere, moral and ethical, so he can draw. Freehand brushwork flowers come directly from calligraphy. Learning from others is the most important thing. Tradition belongs to tradition, paying attention to inheritance, and anecdote painting inherits Hong Bin's old man, and the road is right. Nowadays, it is rare to find people who really explore the true meaning of art. For example, it is commendable for the ancients to study, and it is admirable to study in court.
-Wu Guannan (famous flower and bird painter)
Lu Fangweng's poems written by Chaoyi brothers are very long, with good poems and words, which complement each other. When read carefully, they look like a spring breeze; Go to the ancient times and learn calligraphy. He has been in Beijing for ten years, and he has achieved great success.
—— john young (Vice President of Chinese Painting Academy of China National Painting Academy)
Compared with mountains and rivers, flowers and birds in the morning have more personal characteristics. Traditionally, they use books to paint, write calmly and happily, and don't follow the routine. They make good use of calligraphy pens in their paintings, which are resplendent and elegant, giving people a refreshing feeling.
—— Ji Lianbin (Director of Creative Research Department of China National Academy of Painting)
Excessively easy and good at writing, skillful in writing, solid and honest in lines and flexible, so its landscape and spirit are profound and long. The rock pen is healthy, and the god is pale. The scenery is magnificent, flowing, simple and changeable. The clouds are changing, the grass is flourishing, the letter is being written, and the ups and downs are uneven. The beauty of nature is at the end of the pen, without any modification, and it will be learned when it is artificial. His pen and ink are concise, especially his meaning is detached.
Every time there are long titles and short postscript in his paintings, for example, the flying flowers in the Yan dance crisscross the picture, or he explains the theory of painting, or assigns short sentences, which inadvertently adds picturesque beauty to the book, and the real literati paints.
Flowers and birds are not only good at writing, but also hard to be proud of, so the flowers and birds in Chao Yi are all dominated by power. The branches and leaves are high and low, the shade is big and small, and the back is bright and dark, and it is natural. Don't be realistic in carving. Appreciate with your heart, make do with your spirit, and the flower and bird business is good. The lines are changeable and smooth, with special charm, and calligraphy is also helpful for painting.
-Chu Mo (a famous scholar)
There is a saying in Zhuangzi: Everyone knows what is useful, but they don't know what is useless. Mr. Chao Yi in the middle of Shu enjoys the wind of Mr. Dongpo, an ancient sage, and is immersed in poetry books. His paintings and calligraphy are familiar in the Han, Wei, Jin and Tang Dynasties, the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the southern posts in the northern Ming Dynasty, just as Dongpo said: the brushwork is like a mountain. In my spare time, I concentrate on reading, masterpieces and subsets of history, Tang poetry and Song poetry. In this way, when I was studying, I was better than when I was dying in Linchi. It's useless to say that you don't know. It's a superficial view. Painting and calligraphy, reading is the right way, ignorance and rebellion are all impossible. If Mr. Chao Yi studies like this, he will surely succeed. If it's public.
—— Zhou Xianglin (director of China Calligraphy Association and researcher of China National Painting Academy)
The transcendental new landscape painting is based on the inheritance of China's artistic spirit and the pursuit of inner beauty. In the choice of artistic language, he applied calligraphy and humanistic accomplishment to landscape painting creation, and his works paid attention to the writing with pen and the application of ink accumulation method, which was clean and bookish.
—— Wang Ping (Director of Art Information Research Center of China National Academy of Painting)
The transcendental painting practice can be interpreted as "painting with books", and painting with his years of calligraphy study and cultivation can be described as taking the method. His paintings are as far away as Baiyang, down to Lu Hong, near the window of teachers' medicine, and he paints with calligraphy and pen, prompting modern people to smear their habits at will and appreciate the inner beauty of using pen and ink from Jinshi's paintings. So he wrote flowers and Qingming Festival first, then landscapes. He is not confused by modelling technique of the school, but pursues the authenticity of pen and ink, which is elegant and elegant, and has an extremely confident scroll atmosphere.
-Xu Hongquan (famous painting and calligraphy theorist and painter)
Chaoyi is an artificial art, and they all have a sincere heart of truth, so all his books and paintings are true and appreciated by everyone. Chao Yi is good at calligraphy and painting, and the contents of calligraphy are mostly Buddhist classics, such as Heart Sutra and Amitabha Sutra. It is intended to be published in the same strain. The whole formula contains warm, mellow and elegant meanings. No one who has been immersed in books for a long time can't do it and can't know its truth. Its brushwork of landscapes and flowers is very interesting, and it also conforms to the state of writing. Elegant and smart, it belongs to a literati painting.
-Wei (painter of China National Painting Academy)
The transcendental paintings are elegant, graceful, colorful, mixed with color and ink, with their own Shanghai flavor, near-yuan landscape personality and considerable pen and ink accumulation, which belong to literati! His painting with books has its own pen and ink interest that ordinary painters don't have. If time passes, it will be more elegant.
—— Fang Hui (young painter)
Excessively good at painting, profound in heart. Its meaning is the same as its calligraphy, which emphasizes the beauty of introversion, that is, it does not like fashionable painting style, nor pays much attention to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of past dynasties, but emphasizes "reflecting the Tao" and "true taste" Of course, all the people who can "reflect the Tao" are saints, and saints are always scarce and become "sincere". Those who can do this are all sages, and sages are rare. Most of them are "yearning people".
-Wang Zhenyu (young painter)
Brother Chaoyi loves traditional culture and has always taken it as the foundation of his life. Seeking ancient style and interest is also his consistent proposition in art, which is very rare! When I associate with him, I feel that he is very stable and calm, and his paintings and calligraphy are also very clear, swinging between scales. Chao Yige's epigraphy flower-and-bird school in the late Qing Dynasty is simple and elegant, which is incomparable to ordinary painters. In landscape painting, it seems that his artistic talent can be better reflected. He entered the most essential and core territory of China landscape painting from calligraphy lines and mountains and rivers.
-Yao Wenxing (young painter and theorist)
Transcendent painting is not the pursuit of beauty, but a confession of spiritual meditation. He faces art with a sincere and enthusiastic heart. He doesn't care much about the perfection of the result, but more about the enrichment and carefree process. Therefore, it is precisely because of his attitude towards life and art that his paintings have a more natural inner beauty, and his pen and ink experience accumulated in calligraphy has been fully displayed in painting, which has made his paintings today.
-Li Bo (young painter)
Throughout the recent works of Yi Calligraphy and Painting, the language of pen and ink is pure and simple, without any fireworks. In calligraphy, the seal strokes are made of pen and ink, which is very stony. The brushwork is harmonious and simple, and the spirit is seen in the bold. At the same time, he cares about nature, carefully tries to figure out the true image of nature, reconstructs it, downplays the existence of its appearance, emphasizes the inner subjective spiritual feelings, and his pen and ink are full of true feelings, which is precisely the result of his open-minded personality.
-Fu Zhenbao (doctor, young painter)
