Mo Wen Shiqing Calligraphy Art Exhibition by Mr. Jilin is another unique solo exhibition that transcends oneself after Wen Xin Mo Yun. An exhibition is nothing more than a work, a culture and a heart. This is the common point of all exhibitions without exception. However, Mr. Ji Lin's solo exhibition of calligraphy makes people see an unusual side, which is a delightful side: the precious poetic feelings in calligraphy.
The first time I met Mr. Jilin, it was actually his poem. At that time, I didn't know that he had extraordinary talent in calligraphy. At that time, I wrote an appreciative text "Knowing a Person from Poetry" for his poetry collection, expressing his poetic modality and poetic beauty in his broad-minded life. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for his lofty sentiments and great interest in calligraphy to drown out his poems. In the following years, Mr. Ji Lin's calligraphy creation can be described as passionate and unstoppable. In his works, although diversified pen and ink have their own postures and colors, the artistic conception and feelings in all his works are still based on poetry and have never left poetry.
Poetry is an unavoidable paradise in Mr. Ji Lin's calligraphy creation. Quiet thinking, knowing smile and flashing light from time to time are all beautiful things in his daily life, and the corresponding creations are precious. Creation is like a beautiful house with an open window. The sky outside the window and the flowers and trees dotted with it are all like poems. This agile and lively poetry has undoubtedly become a moving force in Mr. Ji Lin's calligraphy creation, which has promoted the development of his calligraphy.
Poetry rejects vulgarity, and calligraphy can be perfected. In my opinion, poetry and calligraphy are the undertakings of meditators, and any artistic creation is a kind of practice. The process of spiritual practice is also a lonely process. Throughout Mr. Ji Lin's calligraphy, no matter exquisite or elegant, it is not difficult to see the vivid charm contained in it. It is not difficult to see a kind of persistence and calmness inside calligraphy, and it is not difficult to see a kind of freedom and detachment outside calligraphy. This grasp of freedom is sometimes like Zen and sometimes like poetry. This is what the ancients said: "An angry person is not confused with the script; The rhyme is invisible and well preserved. " Charm is poetry, and people who are not smart can't appreciate its subtlety.
Many of the works exhibited by Mr. Ji Lin are either leisurely or simple; Or open a laissez-faire or concentrate on it; Or a strip, or a picture, or a picture, all out of high feelings, the charm, is often the best, so that viewers can't stop. Appreciation is also an art. When you open a window and a door, you will see Mr. Ji Lin's gentle and elegant shadow, which is unpretentious and unassuming, just like a vein of China traditional culture. Mr. Wang's calligraphy creation has been inherited from the sage road for thousands of years and influenced by poetry and painting. Only in this way can the art of calligraphy seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and it is beautiful, just as Huang Tingjian, a great poet and calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty, said: "Learning books must be virtuous, learning sages extensively, and its books are expensive." Mr. Ji Lin studied in Hong Wen, cultivated his self-cultivation, and established a Yanquan Hongwen Museum, where his poems and calligraphy were created. He is both a poet and a calligrapher. His poems are inside and his calligraphy is outside. A poetic calligraphy like Mr. Wang's is "Its books are expensive". What is valuable is his cultural freedom and his spiritual essence.
