Who are the painters and calligraphers of the World Expo National Ceremony 16?

16 World Expo Painter-It has been more than half a month since the opening of the Shanghai World Expo. In the "wave" that is expected to attract 70 million people, a list of cultural "national gifts" drawn up by the Shanghai World Expo Organizing Committee is particularly eye-catching. China 16 painters' works of art were shortlisted for the "Expo National Ceremony", and Tan Keli, a calligrapher from Yunnan, was one of them.

Tan Keli was born in Yongsheng, western Yunnan, and became attached to Momo since childhood. He is the "two kings" of cursive calligraphy, absorbing the strengths of many families and becoming a whole. His pen is both rigid and soft, and Gu Zhuo is vigorous and powerful, with beautiful lines, vivid charm and beautiful shape. His official script study of Deng, absorbing the essence of simplicity, blending the pen and ink interests of bronze inscriptions, Han bamboo slips and ancient seal characters, and drawing lessons from the multi-body calligraphy of seal characters, official scripts, cursive scripts, lines and regular scripts, created infinite ink colors in the dark. Generally speaking, Tan Keli's calligraphy can reflect the tradition of China, make the past serve the present, and form a typical style of "book with painting".

In addition to this work being selected as the national ceremony of the Shanghai World Expo, Tan Keli's calligraphy works often participate in international exchange activities. His works have been included in hundreds of academic works at home and abroad, and I have also visited overseas Korea and eight European countries for academic exchanges many times. As a native calligrapher in Yunnan, Tan Keli was awarded China Meritorious Art Achievement Award, Guoxue 10 Pearl Artist, Master of Contemporary Art, Master of Ci and Qu, and Outstanding Master of China Painting and Calligraphy by relevant departments.
