Gu Hong's Social Evaluation

Wang Bomin (China famous art historian, connoisseur, painter, doctoral supervisor of China Academy of Fine Arts): Gu, who paints landscapes, is especially good at giant Changsong Waterfall, covering real landscapes and taking the essence of real landscapes as a masterpiece. This book is known as "Fa Xin Yuan".

Ouyang Xijun (Deputy Director and Secretary-General of Arts and Crafts Appraisal and Evaluation Committee of Ministry of Culture): Gu Hong's freehand brushwork landscape is green and rough. He used the language inherent in Shan Lan's traditional Chinese painting, which has both the interest of traditional literati painting and his own simple texture, combining rigidity with softness, and combining beauty with elegance.

Xiao Feng (consultant of China Artists Association, former vice chairman of China Artists Association and president of China Academy of Fine Arts): "The joy of mountains and rivers is the heart of wine." The landscape in the eyes of China literati has always been regarded as a perceptual thing, and every painter is pursuing his own "true landscape". Gu Hong, a painter from Zhejiang Province, has made great achievements in this field for many years. Gu Hong's works, whether Cangshan Mountain, Songqing Waterfall or flowers and trees, bring you wonderful enjoyment. Lotus, daffodils and landscape sketches are only feet in size, exquisitely carved, showing pride and high spirits, making people feel bright and warm. The cross-century masterpiece Wanhe Song Feng is as big as 2× 13 meters, covered with mountains and fields, and skyscrapers and pines grow to branches and leaves, with a heavy and powerful image. His calligraphy works are vigorous and elegant, with profound skills. They are selected as couplets and stone carvings, which can be seen everywhere in the West Lake scenic spot. His works, like his life, are full of sunshine and strive for perfection, giving people the enjoyment of beauty and the feeling of vigorous progress, inspiring people to forge ahead. Gu Hong and I have been friends of teachers and students for more than 40 years. He is a diligent painter and a passionate, kind and earnest cultural person. Mr. Wang Bomin, a famous painting historian in China, praised Gu Hong as a man of lofty ideals. He lived by Xizi Lake for a long time and made many contributions to the prosperity of Hangzhou culture. In recent years alone, he has organized large-scale high-grade cultural and artistic activities in China and even in the world, such as the invitation exhibition of famous lotus paintings in China, the invitation exhibition of contemporary famous painters in Qiantang in Golden Autumn, the international symposium on painting and calligraphy in the new millennium of West Lake, the painting of West Lake by 100 painters, and the international painting art forum, which have been appreciated by the art circles at home and abroad. Under his leadership, Tang Yun Art Museum has become the home of artists and the base for spreading high-grade culture and art. "I would like to beg for a new artist and only study Zhu Mo as a spring mountain." I wish Guhong a prosperous career and paint a newer and better tomorrow.
