Calligraphy ?Ten beauties?
1. Beauty of form
Calligraphy is based on the use of brushes. The exquisite use of brushes is the key to a work that can withstand long-term viewing, careful inspection and repeated tasting. important factors. ?Several paintings are applied together, and their shapes are different. All the points are aligned, and the body is consistent with each other. If they are straight and similar, the top and bottom are straight, and the front and back are even, such a mechanical and monotonous arrangement will inevitably destroy the structural beauty of the glyphs. Jiang Kui said in "Xu Shu Pu": "The ancients left ink, and every bit of the painting is clearly unique, because of the exquisiteness of the brushwork." It is said that Wang Xizhi's dot paintings were "ten thousand different". If we look at Yang Ningshi's "Leek Flower Tie" and Chu Suiliang's "Da Zi Yin Fu Jing", we can hardly find any dot paintings with the same shape. And these changes in shape are all produced under the action of the brush strokes, which appear natural. The basic strokes are coordinated and reasonable, with the grace of the round pen, the strength of the square bone, the subtlety of the hidden edge, and the air of the exposed edge. Different changes in form can give viewers different artistic feelings.
The changes in the use of the pen are not only reflected in the form, but also include subtle changes in angle. Do not draw horizontally like a ladder frame, without seeing even strokes arranged together. Therefore, a good calligrapher must be able to seek balance from unevenness, seek uniformity from unevenness, and seek symmetry from unevenness, so as to give the viewer a beautiful feeling. enjoy.
2. Beautiful texture
Quality refers to the texture, texture, weight, strength, literary talent, etc. of stipple painting. Textured stippling has a connotation of charm, richness and subtlety. Although its surface is simple and has no external decoration, its inside contains bones and tendons, and contains text and texture. This is an inner and profound beauty. Yan Zhenqing's "Nephew Memorial Manuscript", Yang Ningshi's "Leek Flower Tie", Li Jianzhong's "Tumu Tie" and Zhang Xu's "Four Ancient Poetry Tie", although their styles are different, they all give people a rich, full, calm and relaxed style. , an artistic experience that is full of joy and proportion to flesh and blood. This kind of line is rich and substantial in content. "There is something in the pen" refers exactly to this. Therefore, the two sides of pointillism paintings with beautiful texture are often not only smooth and hairy, but also straight and powerful, or graceful and concise, as if flying into motion, with smooth rhyme and no rigidity. This kind of "quick and astringent" pen use, without accumulated profound skills and proficient pen and ink skills, as well as strong pen power, would not be able to achieve this artistic effect. On the contrary, some strokes that are thin and flat, have ink that does not enter the paper, are smooth in engraving, are timid and weak, expose muscles and bones, are bloated and expose flesh, and are dirty and residual, often lose the natural beauty of the pen, and are not suitable for calligraphers.
3. Rhythm
Rhyme has a wide range of meanings. In pen and ink techniques, it often expresses the rhythm of the pen and the changes in ink color. A beautiful and touching poem, with its ups and downs, sonorous rhythm, makes the reader's teeth and cheeks sweet; a pleasant music, with its smooth, harmonious and rhythmic melody, leaves the listener with endless aftertaste; a picture full of interest His calligraphy, with its lightness, weight, ups and downs and bright style, makes the viewer's attention and fascination. At this point, all kinds of art have their own universal points. The dynamics of things in nature, such as rolling clouds, swaying weeping willows, eagles flying in the sky, winding and rushing rivers on the earth, will inevitably lead to wind and rain, thunder and lightning, startling snakes, flying birds, running horses, flowing springs, and flying dragons. , phoenix flying, tiger crouching, insects eating, as well as people sitting, lying, walking, running, singing, dancing, fighting, etc., can also be in harmony with the expressions and interest in calligraphy. This makes the glyphs still on the paper become full of energy and vitality.
When a calligrapher uses different rhythms of light, heavy and slow to express his artistic conception, his works will inevitably produce a kind of dynamic beauty, which will make the viewer's mind wander and create emotional excitement. When writing, different rhythms can produce different artistic effects. A slow rhythm can give people a calm, rigorous and leisurely artistic feeling; a rapid rhythm can give people an exciting and joyful artistic feeling. Different rhythms can produce vivid changes in the rhythm of ink, with alternating dark and light shades, a mixture of dryness and moistness, making the whole work lively and lively. On the contrary, if you write slowly and slowly on the paper at an absolutely average speed, write hurriedly, or write monotonously without any ups and downs, your works will be dull and lifeless, and there will be no artistic appeal.
IV. The beauty of strength
No matter what style the calligraphy art is, it must be backed by strength. Strength is an author’s accumulation of skill in long-term calligraphy practice. It is the pen and ink. The expression of technique, without the power of writing, will make the whole work look lifeless and tired. In modern times, Mr. Liang Qichao regarded the beauty of strokes as the main basis for appreciating calligraphy, which shows the importance of strokes. Many calligraphers in the past dynasties are famous for their writing skills. The strong force is like an iron painted silver hook, strong and square; the soft force is like a needle hidden in the cotton, graceful and concise. Although there are differences in styles, they all use different expression techniques to reflect the unique "powerful beauty" in their works. As the saying goes, when all wonderful people return home, they must preserve their integrity. ?No wonder Wang Sengqian, a famous calligraphy critic in the Southern Dynasties, said with emotion: ?The ancient and the modern are so different that there is no way to argue their merits, only to be amazed by the power of their writing. ?The beauty of powerful works is precisely because it allows the viewer to appreciate the movement of life in this solid but not static glyph. Without the power of writing, beauty cannot be fully expressed and brought into play.
5. The beauty of momentum
Although my country’s calligraphy art is a plastic art based on words, the formation of form cannot be separated from momentum. Military strategists focus on situation, boxers focus on attacking momentum, articles focus on momentum, and calligraphy focuses on brushstrokes. The predecessors all talked about the "moment" when commenting on calligraphy. It is said that when writing a book, one must first understand the "moment". It can be seen that the "moment" occupies a very important position in calligraphy and is also an important symbol for appreciating the beauty of calligraphy. In pen and ink techniques, it often represents the "muscles", "blood collaterals", and "moving qi" of the characters. In a work, if the dots and dots echo each other; the words and characters are each scene-by-moment; and the lines and lines are each other's, then the whole picture will appear to be united in spirit and spirit. It gives the viewer an artistic feeling of smooth brushstrokes, concentrated breath, and complete energy. There are many excellent works in ancient my country, some are majestic, some are unrestrained, some are slow and calm, some are irresistible, some are exciting and frustrated, some are high-spirited, some are quiet and lush, some are dripping and hearty, some are Some are stretched vertically and horizontally, and some are reunited in spirit. Although the techniques are different, they are all galloping, the writing is smooth, the mind and hand are in harmony, and the control is free, giving people an artistic feeling of being connected by blood and working together. Works that lack momentum are like clay and wood sculptures. They don't talk or smile, and are rigid and dull. The whole work will look relaxed and lifeless. Therefore, the beauty of "shi" is a spiritual state that runs through the entire calligraphy. Whether you can recognize "shi" is also an important criterion for evaluating calligraphy works.
6. The beauty of structure
Structure is the study of the matching method between the stipples in each word. As a text, each character has a specific and standardized combination form, thus showing its "regularity". However, as calligraphy, a writing art that relies on words, it also shows its "complexity". How can we find out from the ever-changing glyphs what have the same rules? The structure of a Chinese character is like a building, which includes aesthetics and mechanics. Different changes in stipple shapes and different combinations can produce different structures. The same word can express different postures, some sparse, some tight, some stretched, some flowing, some simple, some strange, some steep and some thin, some plump, the combination of these structures are all It is inseparable from the changes in Qi Zheng. If it is too plain and regular, it will be close to the vulgar and lack charm. If it is too dangerous, it will involve wild and weird meanings. The beauty lies in the inclusion of strangeness in the ordinary, and it is straight but not rigid. It's not weird, it's reasonable.
9. Beauty of style
Beauty of style is a primary condition for evaluating the art of calligraphy, and it is also an important symbol to distinguish between "calligraphy slaves" and "calligraphers". The emergence of style is not only related to the inheritance from teachers, family studies, the influence of famous contemporaries and the traditional techniques absorbed, but also closely related to the author's personality, temperament, courage, literary and artistic accomplishment, aesthetic taste, conception and even character. relationship. Style is people, the unity of thought and art.
Ancient calligraphers were able to boldly innovate on the basis of their predecessors, find new ways, and create many different styles. For example, some works are strong and strong, like a majestic warrior; some works are graceful, mellow, and colorful, like a stunning beauty; some works are simple and vigorous, deep and vigorous, with an ancient quality. style; some works are graceful, elegant, and elegant, and have the elegance of a scholar; some works are strict, dense, and peaceful, with the attitude of a counselor; some works are graceful, elegant, and elegant, Do you have the attitude of a scholar? All these, different styles, show the personality and temperament of different people. They compete with each other, each with their own ingenuity, making the viewer fascinated by the strange flowers and flowers. I will never forget to leave. And works without style, such as Handan Toddler. However, it is still following the old path. Even if it can penetrate three-thirds of the wood, it will still be regarded as a "book slave" and will ultimately not be a masterpiece.
10. Natural Beauty
Natural beauty is the simplest formal beauty in the art of calligraphy. It takes off the coat of deliberate decoration and eliminates the traces of artificial axe-cutting, thus showing a kind of beauty. Natural, charming beauty.
Natural beauty runs through all aspects of calligraphy art, and is a unique form of expression of calligraphy art, such as some traces of roof leaks, folded hairpin strands, wall demolitions, and lines of sand ink in the brushwork. The structure requires the true state of each character and is similar to the natural and uneven physical state of nature. The layout of the "rubble-paved street" and the charm of the brushwork such as flowing clouds and flowing water are full of natural interest.
To achieve the artistic realm of natural beauty, we must start with intention. Nature is by no means casual, careless, informal, or unruly. On the contrary, it is a perfect combination of proficient skills and high artistic conception, so it must undergo long-term hard and strict training. ?Both carving and polishing, returning to simplicity? Therefore, works of natural beauty appear to be light and simple on the outside, without any carvings, but they contain great inner beauty, which is the ultimate in wonder, craftsmanship, skill and beauty. Wang Xizhi's running calligraphy is so beautiful and natural that it looks like the beauty of the sky and the beauty of the country. It does not apply pink and white, and its radiance is moving. This is a superb artistic state. The ancients used calligraphy (such as Yan's manuscript) to express their intention in writing. , letting nature take its course, yet revealing its innocence, the so-called "work by oneself without deadlines", so his works are often enchanting and make people have unexpected thoughts.
