Characteristics of Huang Tingjian's Calligraphy
On the basis of inheriting the tradition and learning the calligraphy of predecessors, Huang Tingjian boldly innovated and became unique, forming his own style. However, his calligraphy also has some shortcomings. For example, some strokes are too thin and too long and are ridiculed by Su Like Dongpo? A snake hanging from the treetop? That's true.
Looks ugly. However, flaws do not hide Yu. Generally speaking, yellow book has his unique style.
First, the knot of the palace, long pen four exhibitions:
Huang Tingjian's running script, each word is mostly long and vertical, but the middle palace of each word (? Nakamiya? That is, the center) seems to have a center, and other strokes radiate outward from the center. This kind? Breaking the body? what's up Radiant? The glyph structure of his calligraphy has broken through the square and flat appearance that has been popular since the Jin and Tang Dynasties. With the help of his stippling, he not only grasped the center of gravity, but also exaggerated some strokes, which made his calligraphy present the elegant charm and bold spirit of Xiao Yi.
Second, the side changes, unconstrained style:
The second feature of Huang Tingjian's calligraphy is that the structure of fonts and strokes is unconstrained. His horizontal paintings are uneven and his vertical paintings are crooked. The parts of each word often cooperate with each other in a good or corresponding oblique form, which is contrary to the flat and rigid structure of the predecessors, making his words look chic and gorgeous. Su Dongpo appreciates the characteristics of Huang Fang very much. He once said: Take the concept of equality as a side word, take reason as a play, and write with humility. Three evils? . ("Dongpo Continued" Volume 4, "Postscript Lu Zhi as Wang Jinqing's Little Book Erya").
Third, don't mess with it, a generation of wonderful books:
The third feature of the Yellow Book is that when writing three water spots, the last water spot is not to be provoked, as in the Biography of Fan Pang? Fan? 、? Hey? 、? Hey? And so on, from "All the Postscript"? Net? Word, "Song Fengge Poetry"? Tao? 、? Wash? 、? SA? , gurgling,,? Shen? Words like this, especially the running script "Poems of Jingfubo Temple", have 17 words with three points of water, except? Ze? 、? Have to? Except for two words, the last point of the other fifteen words is not annoying at all. Yuan Wen commented on Huang Tingjian's calligraphy in Song Dynasty. The word starts from the water, and the seal script is the word *, which also covers the water. Official script does not use the word *, but it is more of a three-point, and it is also a water word. But among the three points, the last one is annoying and meaningless, which is the text of the word; If you don't mess with it, it looks unsightly. This dynasty is independent of Huang Taishi, not caused by three points. Its body is more beautiful, and it believes in a generation of wonderful books. ? (Review Between Urns, Volume 4).
Fourth, the left point, frowning near:
Most of the yellow books show kung fu with big strokes and long strokes, which is an obvious feature of yellow books, but sometimes the strokes of some words are intentionally shortened and included in yellow books, among which the most prominent ones are Epitaph of Wang Chunzhong, Poem to Forty-nine Nephews and Poem of Song Fengge. Repair? Word sum? Ginseng? In Chinese Characters, Huang Tingjian divided the three folds of the left hand into three points. This unusual processing makes the font structure? Exhibition? With what? Huh? Contrast, long strokes and short strokes, diversity and polymorphism make the strokes of these words change without repetition. This is another feature of the Yellow Book.
Five, the combination of dynamic and static, harmonious and unified:
Huang Tingjian writes some words with four dots below them, which are in continuous waves, such as those in Postscript of Huangzhou Cold Food Poems? Concurrent? Word, from "Huaqi Iron Stone"? Kaori? Word, in the poem volume of Jingfubo Temple? Ma's words, Zhi Jing Dao Shi Qi Jun and Wang Chunzhong's Epitaph? Nothing? Words, etc This kind of processing makes the upper part of the word more correct and stable, as follows? Quiet? And the following four points are written in waves, arranged in a line, chic and elegant. Moving? In this way, the font structure is dynamic and static, harmonious and unified.
Six, don't mud ancient method, get its meaning:
Huang Tingjian's cursive script is like a dragon flying in the wind, surpassing anecdotes and being praised by the world. Although he studied under Zhang Xu and Huai Su, he did not stick to the ancient law and strived for innovation. Shi Yisheng, a poet in the Jin Dynasty, praised Huang Tingjian's cursive script and said: When the line stops, it is organized in chaos. I don't know if I wave, but my heart is empty. ? ("Zhongzhou Ji" Volume II? Valley cursive script? ) Zhao Bingwen said in "After the Selection of Fu Weng's cursive script":? Fu Weng took part in Huanglong Zen, but he used the Tathagata method backwards. Therefore, his books have implications beyond the pen, such as Zhuang Zhou's rhetoric, which makes people unpredictable. ? Although some glyphs of Huang Tingjian's cursive script are similar to those written by Zhang Xu and Huai Su, he is good at using a pen, so profound that the lines of Huang Shu are varied and varied. Although many of Xu's and Su's brushstrokes are extravagant, they are mostly known for their simplicity, while yellow books are full of twists and turns, or they are full of twists and turns, or they are light and pointed, and they are wonderful and multifaceted. Personally, I think shine on you is better than Blue, and Huang Tingjian's cursive script has surpassed Zhang Xu and Huai Su. Besides, Su Dongpo said: It's not enough to write a mountain of retirement. You can only understand God by reading thousands of books. ? Huang Tingjian's life experience, articles and knowledge are far richer and deeper than those of Xu and Su.
