China's calligraphy is an ancient art of writing Chinese characters. Calligraphy has always exuded artistic charm, from Oracle Bone Inscriptions, Yunnan, to Dazhuan, Xiaozhuan and Lishu, and then to cursive script, regular script and running script in the Eastern Han Dynasty and Wei and Jin Dynasties.
China's calligraphy is an original performance art of the Han nationality, which is known as: poetry without words, dancing without words; Painless paintings, silent music. Chinese characters are an important factor in China's calligraphy, because China's calligraphy was produced and developed in China culture, and Chinese characters are one of the basic elements of China culture.
China's 5,000-year splendid civilization and unparalleled rich written records have been recognized by the world. In this long and profound history, China's calligraphy and painting art reproduces this diachronic evolution process with its unique artistic form and artistic language.
In the historical evolution, calligraphy and painting, a sister art, explained the traditional cultural connotation of China with its complementarity and independence. Because the tools and materials used in the creation of books and paintings are the same.
When talking about the origin of ancient Chinese characters and paintings in China, he said: "At that time, books and paintings were the same, but there was no difference. The image system is too subtle to convey its meaning, so there are books; There is no way to see its shape, so there are paintings. "
Although calligraphy and painting are homologous and comparable, their future development and changes are complementary and independent. The formation and development of China's calligraphy art is closely related to the emergence and evolution of Chinese characters.
Calligraphy is an abstract symbolic art based on Chinese characters and written with a brush, which has four-dimensional characteristics. It embodies the basic law of the "unity of opposites" of all things, and reflects the spirit, temperament, knowledge and cultivation of people as the main body.
The writing of characters has developed to an aesthetic stage-it combines the creator's ideas, thinking and spirit, and can stimulate the aesthetic feeling of aesthetic objects. What is recorded should be between the late Han Dynasty and Wei and Jin Dynasties. However, this is not to ignore, dilute or even deny the artistic value and historical position of the previous calligraphy art form.
