Yuan Wuqi, 12 years ago, resigned from the so-called iron rice bowl with a roll of calligraphy he wrote and came to Zhengzhou Antique City. He said that Zhengzhou has two tasks: one is dreaming, and the other is finding a wife.
At that time, he felt that his handwriting was very good, and he had won many prizes, so he was sure to get a good price. As a result, I sold some at the price of 20 yuan. He said that he was very grateful to the person who bought him a roll of words with 20 yuan money. ...
Now more than ten years of experience in antique collection, countless works have been evaluated by him. With his own efforts and careful training, he developed a pair of "critical eyes" and smiled coldly at the authenticity of the antique market. Insiders commented on him like this: good moral character, good vision, strength and wide connections.
Regarding Wang Duo's calligraphy, Wu Changshuo praised: "Wen Anzhi's pen is flat and glazed, and Ming calligraphy is the first." The contemporary Mr. Qi Gong also said, "Juesi can write a tripod, and there has been no such monarch for 500 years. "
In 2000, Yuan Wuqi bought Wang Duo's Self-Written Poetry for less than 2 million yuan, but now the price of this national treasure calligraphy work has already exceeded 10 million yuan. Yuan Wuqi said that this is the most wonderful work he has collected for many years.
That year, Yuan Wuqi went to the countryside to buy antiques as usual and went to a village in Yanshi, Luoyang. Under the guidance of an online person, he read a few words, and his signature turned out to be Wang Duo. It was this encounter that opened the way for him to collect Wang Duo's calligraphy. Yuan Wuqi has been afraid to judge whether the word is genuine or not.
So Yuan Wuqi decided to go to Luoyang to find the seller again. I didn't know until I met the seller that many experts had read this book and it was gone. Even the sellers began to doubt the authenticity of things. Yuan Wuqi opened the scroll again, and the work was signed as "Wang Duojue Si", and both sides were "one yuan". Looking at pen and ink, the brushwork is vigorous, agile as a dragon, stunning as a leap, clear and considerable, vertical and capable of folding, ingenious as clumsy, chic and erratic, elegant and flying.
After studying Wang Duo for two years, Yuan Wuqi confirmed that this book is authentic, and judged that it should be an early scroll of Wang Duo, written by a friend who studied together in Songyang Academy as a child. The year of the book belongs to Chen Bing, which should be 16 16, when Wang Duo was 25 years old.
Yuan Wuqi repeatedly looked at Wang Duo's seal and the seal knowledge collected by later generations, and then looked at the mounting and inscription. It was indeed a silk book in the late Ming Dynasty, but it was uncovered in the Qing Dynasty. Although the original and the second mounting are separated by a hundred years, and the letter core is different from the mounted silk paper, the mounting style is antique.
After examination, the two seals "Wang Duojue Si" and "One Yuan" were used by him before he was thirty years old. At the age of 3 1, Wang Duo was promoted through palace examination and went to Beijing to worship the Hanlin. Since then, he has been using the seals of "Wang Duo" and "Zongbo Bachelor". Previously, academic circles believed that Wang Duo's earliest calligraphy work was "The Tomb of Mr. Wu Yangchong and his wife Zhang" written when he was 28 years old, which was collected by Tianjin Museum. This hand scroll collected by Yuan Wuqi is a book written by Wang Duo for 25 years. As soon as this article came out, it immediately aroused widespread concern in academic circles.
Although this volume of Wang Duo was written three years earlier than the tombs of Mr. Wu Yangchong and his wife Zhang Ruobiao, it does not affect his contribution in the history of calligraphy: it is reflected in his original writing style with strong sense of power, and the structure and pen used to control calligraphy in this volume. This book is extracted from the calligraphy techniques of Yan, Liu, Xu, Su, Mi and Huang, which expands and enriches the calligraphy techniques. As can be seen from this volume, Wang Duo showed a shocking and shocking aesthetic tendency of calligraphy very early, and his book Wendan also confirmed this point. To this end, Japanese calligraphers put forward the view that "the former king (Tudor) prevailed over the former king (Xizhi)", which will be further confirmed with the deepening of this volume.
The author asked if there were any mistakes in shopping these years. Yuan Wuqi replied: "On one occasion, I lost 30,000 to 40,000. In this line of work, you must be sure to be on the safe side when buying things. If there is a problem in one link, I would rather miss the baby than invest rashly, because this industry does not allow uncertain words such as' possible',' probably' and' possible'. " It is this attitude that won Yuan Wuqi's recognition in the collection of calligraphy and painting.
Yuan Wuqi: the word "one pot and a half", also known as country-specific ones. Originally from Huaiyang, I now live in Zhengzhou. His works have won many national painting and calligraphy awards. He is currently the director of the International Liaison Department of Henan Chinese Painting and Calligraphy Institute, the director of Henan Antique Chamber of Commerce, the general manager of Zhengzhou Gallery, and the vice president of Henan Times Painting and Calligraphy Institute.
