Who are the two calligraphers of the contemporary cursive script Linnan Beili?

There are two great calligraphers in contemporary cursive script, one is Lin Sanzhi, the other is Li Zhimin, and they are also called "Nanlin Beimei". Although they have different styles and methods, they all form their own characteristics on the basis of drawing lessons from tradition and create new calligraphy forms and cursive styles, which are worth studying and learning from calligraphy theorists.

In his early years, he studied landscape painting from Huang; Li Zhimin studied in Wuchang Art College in his early years, specializing in northern landscape painting. Both of them have profound attainments in China's landscape paintings. Lin Sanzhi is good at grass and is known as the "sage of grass". Li Zhimin is good at weeds, and he is a pioneer in attracting monuments into the grass. Lin Sanzhi cursive script is elegant, while Li Zhimin cursive script is boundless. Both of them are hard and soft, and each has its own advantages, which highlights the two-peak game of "South Forest and North Plum". Lin Sanzhi said before his death: "I only compete with the ancients for status"; Li Zhimin said before his death, "I don't care about now, I care about 300 years later".

Mr. Qi Gong said: Lin Sanzhi is the "contemporary three wonders" of poetry, calligraphy and painting; Mr. Qi Gong also said: "Only by combining the inscriptions can we break through the barriers of our predecessors. Mr. Li Zhimin's exploration of introducing monuments into the grass represents the direction of China's calligraphy. " Mr. Zhao Puchu once praised Lin Sanzhi in his poem: "Traveling thousands of miles to thousands of books is thoughtful and knowledgeable." ? Silk honey is sincere and good, and years of work and affection are at the beginning "; Mr Zhao Puchu once said with emotion, "I read Li Zhimin's book first, and then I met him. The first time I saw his cursive script, I found it really difficult to read and a little rough. You can put it aside, but when you come back occasionally, you will appreciate its old and vigorous stippling, and there is no lack of inspiration. So, I appreciate it carefully and am very impressed! "

Mr. Aoyama, a famous Japanese calligrapher, commented on Lin Sanzhi: "The legacy of the sage is here"; Xiong Bingming, a French-Chinese calligraphy theorist, commented on Li Zhimin: "Contemporary calligraphy should find a way out from the combination of inscriptions and calligraphy. "Crazy Grass" should be written like Mr. Li Zhimin, and the value of attracting a monument into the grass should not be underestimated. "
