His works "A Pot of Harvest in the Yellow River in the World" and "Tomiichi Murayama" won the Tomiichi Murayama Prize in the 22nd All-China International Art Exhibition.
Mr Tao Ge told this reporter: "This year marks the 70th anniversary of the victory of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, China. The reason why Tomiichi Murayama is painted with Chinese painting is because the famous "Murayama talk" left a deep impression on me, and let the world see that Mr. Tomiichi Murayama, the former Japanese Prime Minister, is a quality and respectable Japanese politician. My work is not only an appreciation of Mr. Murayama, but also a blessing to the peace-loving people of China and Japan. In a telephone interview, Tomiichi Murayama

The life of the character
Quoted from the League's China Special Report.
Calligrapher Tao Ge, "Dark Horse of Calligraphy, Contemporary Grass Sage"
Doctor of Economics, visiting scholar of China Academy of Fine Arts; His calligraphy is good in all aspects, especially cursive. His brushwork is sharp and vigorous, wild and natural, and he learns from the past without mud. He is Tao Ge, the chairman of Shanxi Huayuntong Coal Industry Co., Ltd., who is known as a "contemporary sage".
(China Net reporter Chen Yong) Writing is more difficult than drawing. There are more than one billion people in China who can write. I dare not say that they are all calligraphers, but I'm sure they are all critics. The painter Tao Ge is a legend. Two years ago, a flat-footed calligraphy work, Jing Qi Shen, was sold at an auction for 27,500 yuan. Since then, it has created an auction record with a flat price of 27,500 RMB, which has attracted the attention of collectors and calligraphy and painting circles.
Tao Ge's cursive script is wild, chic, innovative and good at any time; Clumsy, round inside, surprised, the hook changed. Critics say that his achievements in one book have surpassed those of Fu Shan, a calligrapher in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Every time he approaches Fushan Forest of Steles, he always thinks of the cursive chanting formula of his childhood teacher Xu Renzhi: "Lighten the inkstone and ink, re-explore the pen, relax your shoulders, breathe gently, have a book in your belly, and hang your pen and shake your wrist around your waist." Fold the pen vertically in the mouth, and write one backwards when the willow leaves are connected. When collecting the pen, the peak does not leak meat, and the blood is even bone ... Linchi book, cotton as paper, first came Zhang Zhi, then Zhang Xu, and Zhang Zhi illegally made this grass, and two generations of grass came first. Two kings and two kings are not as powerful as their father in learning books. Xi's running script is a sage, but Tang Wang didn't hide a word. "Tao Ge has more than 30 cursive chants, many cursive symbols, profound knowledge and catchy cursive chants. The bones were soaked in the ink of Wang Xizhi and two kings, Wang Xianzhi, Zhang Zhi and Zhang Xu. Zhang Zhi was born in Jiuquan, Gansu in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Zhang Zhi created cursive script by the pool, and created cursive script into vertical cursive script from right to left, which was the originator of cursive script. Zhang Xu, a native of Suzhou, was a sage in the Tang Dynasty. As can be seen, Zhang Xu even surpassed Zhang Zhi, and the calligraphy of "Zhang Er" has been confused, which means that Zhang Xu has replaced Zhang Zhi.
Tao Ge, a contemporary sage of grass, was born in Dongfeng County, Jilin Province, the hometown of sika deer in 1955, and was recruited to Shaanxi in 1983. In 1980s, China packaged and published Wujiahua designed by Tao Ge, and the designed ginseng and tiger bone wine remained unchanged. The TV series "Lu Xun in Japan" won the grand prize of choreography, and the choreography was designed by Tao Ge. The first, second and third prizes of national TV advertisements were awarded by Shanxi TV Station for the first time! Tao Ge is planning, creating and playing a decisive role. China's first TV series "Black and Red Tie" shot by a private film and television company, starring Yang Yaqin and Wang Qingxiang, was written by Tao Ge. 1988, the first shipment of coke was exported from Shanxi. In the 1990s, it had its own train to transport coal from Shanxi to other countries. After 2000, Tao Ge was hired by China Academy of Art as a visiting scholar and researcher in Peking University. Boss Ge is the first millionaire in Shanxi, and his book theory is very deep.
Personal work
Quoted from Suihua News Network's special report "Pen flies, ink dances".
Clouds start in the air and come out naturally.
—— Tao Ge, doctor of economics, visiting scholar of China Academy of Art, chairman of Peking University Research Institute and Shanxi Huayuntong Coal Industry Co., Ltd.
Involve many families and become your own.
Tao Ge doesn't stick to one pattern and learns from anyone he sees.
Two Kings, Yan Liu, Zhao Meng _, Zhang Xu, and Maoti all made great efforts to study various schools. Just like we drink milk not to become a cow, but to absorb its nutrition. Tao Ge dabbled in many schools in the pursuit of calligraphy for more than half a century. In comparison, he learned the true meaning of each family, integrated the strengths of each family, and made it his own source, which influenced every stroke of his calligraphy without any mud spots. It can be said that he is a legalist. He said that every word in Chairman Mao's calligraphy has a source, and every word has "Mao". The elegance of the "two kings", the beauty of Sun, the crazy rhyme and the licentiousness of Huai Su are just like Chairman Mao's Hunan Putonghua, which smells from Chairman Mao's mouth and others can't learn it.
Tao Ge said that Qi Baishi once said to disciple Xu Linlu, "If you learn from me, you will live as if I were dead.". If you just study blindly, don't know how to innovate, and have no own style, there is no way out. So is calligraphy. When you write Wang Xizhi's handwriting, you can confuse the fake with the real, but only imitate it. You must find the door and break it down. Don't blindly imitate others, but have your own personality characteristics.
He also emphasized that calligraphy presents the essence of China culture.
Calligraphy emphasizes the beauty of "neutralization" Confucianism calls it "extremely bright and moderate". The beauty of "neutralization" in calligraphy is to pursue the mutual echo between strokes, look around and have a patchwork structure. The golden mean harmony has dialectical philosophical connotation, and it should be "harmonious but different", without publicity, kitsch and affectation, and emphasize the coordination and balance of opposites. Both sides, fat and thin, exposed and hidden, up and down, left and right, more and less, opposed, each restrained, transcended opposition and conflict, and reached a higher level of mutual penetration, opposition and complementarity, and mutual integration.
With the elutriation of time and the accumulation of knowledge, he paid more attention to the charm and rhythm of calligraphy, paid attention to dry and wet shades and organizational structure, sought beauty from ignorance, and wrote a unique "style calligraphy".
Because Tao Ge's calligraphy and painting are excellent, they often penetrate and blend with each other. He is particularly good at combining painting with calligraphy without being divorced from form, creating a unique art of calligraphy.
Li Caiwang, chairman of the Shanxi Federation of Literary and Art Circles and chairman of the Book Association, praised: "Calligraphy keeps elegant and sends three or two strokes. The atmosphere is natural, and the smoke begins and ends. "
Gao Quan, a painter, wrote an inscription for Tao Ge: "Silence the cruel".
Zhao Xinge, an art critic, is a trendsetter in the business world, but no one comes to paint the sea, and his pen and ink are divided into territories, and his style is world-famous.
Personal life
A special report quoted from Wen Wei Po
Coal merchant painter Tao Ge
Tao Ge (first from the right) and Pan Shiyi (middle) are enjoying their paintings.
According to the newspaper, Tao Ge, the coal boss, bought the house of Pan Shiyi, a famous real estate developer in Beijing, and gave Lao Pan a landscape painting of Jiuzhaigou. Many people always have an impression on the boss of coal, so they are extremely skeptical about boss Ge's paintings as gifts. However, the author does not think so. On the contrary, he thinks he is defending the coal boss in Shanxi-not all coal miners are bumpkins.
I met him at a personal painting and calligraphy exhibition in Tao Ge. I went with some friends and met former Shaanxi Provincial Party Secretary Hu. Hu was born in the coal industry and used to be an official in Shanxi, so he was very kind when he learned that he was the boss of Shanxi coal transportation. In order to repay Hu's enthusiasm, I gave him a landscape painting of Jiuzhaigou. This surprised Hu very much. Hu, who likes excitement, read his works and praised him: "A coal hauler turned out to be an excellent painter. Who said that the quality of our coal transportation is not high? 」
