If you know in advance the life you are going to face,
I wonder if you still have the courage to come?
His name is Xu Rongfa, and people call him a "crazy painter". Because of his extreme poverty, he can only make a living by picking up some waste products. His shabby and narrow house is full of all kinds of junk, but he loves painting and can often be seen painting in front of a pile of junk.
Xu Rongfa has a beard, which is quite an artist. And his life is quite tortuous.
He is the first college student after the resumption of the college entrance examination in Shinan Street, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, and is known as the "little painter" of Shinan Street.
198 1 year was assigned to the vocational middle school of Southern Metallurgical Institute (now Jiangxi University of Science and Technology) to teach fine arts. 1996, he asked for leave from school 1 year, that is, he went to a noble school in Guangdong as a teacher in the name of leaving his job without pay. 1997, the school dismissed him. After being dismissed, his wife divorced him again, and then his right hand and right leg were almost paralyzed by a stroke.
In poor days, because there is no money to buy paper and pens, "crazy painters" can only draw on boards with chalk and charcoal. This is one of his works, the mermaid returns to the earth.
Xu Rong's work Contemporary Hakka Women is drawn with chalk and charcoal.
This "crazy painter" shows people his works in the street, with a Picasso-style dancer on the left and a portrait of the king of western songs on the right. It is said that the person he respects most is the musician Wang, and Wang's "In that Far Away Place" inspired him to face a miserable life.
His thin body has been bent by life, but his paintings on the board are like poems and distant calls, which are out of tune with the surrounding environment.
Although he was in rags and his home was surrounded by a wall, he dug up the stars and the moon on the wall.
Some people say that Xu Rongfa is "Picasso of China", while others think that the real painter has been buried. Some people think that he tried to turn his life into a poem, but he lost to reality. ...
But perhaps in his spiritual world, the reality of daily necessities is just a bubble. ...
Now, after a fire destroyed Xu Rongfa's house, Xu Rongfa disappeared without a trace. ...
In a village in Ruijin City, Jiangxi Province, there is a house that looks particularly "different". Only here
In the small bungalow on the first floor, the walls are covered with poems, which makes people curious about the owner of the house.
Poems are written everywhere on the walls, doors and toilets of this house. Although many of them are doggerels, it is not difficult to see that the preferences of the people who write poems are somewhat incompatible with the farmers who farm around them.
The owner of this house is Hua, 62 years old. His children are all married, and his wife has taken her grandson to her daughter's house. Spend time alone at home, writing calligraphy and painting every day. The empty room is already full of his paintings and calligraphy. In the picture, Chinese Feng Chong is creating with a ruler. He said he could draw with tools such as cigarette butts, wooden sticks and kitchen knives.
For more than 30 years, Hua has used countless ballpoint pens and inks. Sometimes there is no ink, so he writes novels with a ballpoint pen. Because of his obsession with painting and calligraphy, he has been burning the midnight oil for countless days and nights. Because he is poor and has no money to buy paper, he can only write on the wall. When he was obsessed with calligraphy and painting, his family opposed him. His boss swept the words off the wall with a broom, but he never gave up. It seems that this is his whole world.
Hua also combined calligraphy and painting in his creation, creating unique paintings and calligraphy works.
For more than 30 years, he studied hard and endured the unbearable loneliness of ordinary people, while the villagers laughed at him and thought he was insane and crazy.
Because of my age, I felt that my time was running out, so I wrote a will on the door panel of the house: this house can't be demolished, and this house can't be sold. He hopes that his children and grandchildren can take care of the room, because this is his lifelong effort.
He can only live on 300 yuan given by his children every month. In the stove in his kitchen, the food has been moldy for a long time, but he said that he was hungry and had no choice but to eat these. Painting, calligraphy and writing have long been his spiritual food.
In his house, he can hardly find a valuable piece of furniture, and he is still infatuated and immersed in his own world.
Perhaps in his view, the real world can only give him a bungalow, and what he gives back to the real world is a whole poetic home.
