Zhou Yongjun's Social Comments

Zhou Yongjun is an amateur calligrapher, but his works are very professional. Since childhood, I studied calligraphy and painting with my uncle Zhao Songquan, a famous flower and bird painter in Taiwan Province. From 65438 to 0990, I studied under Mr. Tian Yuan, a famous painter. However, I relied more on my own painstaking research and deep understanding of art. Calligraphy traced back to the Han, Wei, Ming and Qing Dynasties, letters in the Song Dynasty, inscriptions in the Tang Dynasty, Oracle bones in the Yin ruins, stone drums in Zhong Ding, Xiao Zhuan in the Qing Dynasty, and especially Zhang Qian in Mi Fei, Wang Duo and Han Li. His seal cutting masters studied under the Qin and Han Dynasties and Huang Mufu, combining the charm of Wu Changshuo, Chen Julai, Fang Jiekan and other masters in one stone. He pursued calligraphy, learned the most and got the most. While inheriting the beauty of classical form, his books pay special attention to brushwork, composition and ink method, with complex brushwork and vivid charm throughout; His brushwork is steady, his structure is smooth, and Zhu and Bai are between square inches, which shows the dialectical unity of Yin and Yang in China's philosophy. His calligraphy seal cutting has won many awards and exhibitions in China. /kloc-when he was 0/8 years old, he won the first prize in the national calligraphy seal cutting exhibition and the first place in the Anhui calligraphy exhibition, and he joined the Anhui Calligraphers Association and became one of the youngest members of the Provincial Calligraphers Association at that time. In recent years, more than 65,438+000 printed works created by him have been compiled by Anhui Painting and Calligraphy Institute and Celebrity and Art (Fine Arts Edition) magazine into Su Mo Shixin-Qiao Calligraphy and Seal Carving Collection, which is published by China Literature and Art Publishing House. His works have attracted much attention overseas. Museums, galleries and some collectors who love China culture all have his calligraphy and seal cutting. When Gao Qiao Kishu, the former mayor of Izaki, accepted Zhou Yongjun's calligraphy as a diplomatic gift, he greatly appreciated it and hung it as a treasure at home.

There is a saying in the calligraphy calendar that "the Tang Dynasty respected the law and the Song Dynasty respected the meaning", and Joe always combined the "law" and "meaning" in his creation. On the one hand, he regards ancient famous monuments and beautiful posts as "classics" and strives to absorb the essence; On the other hand, he takes sister art nutrition as the "latitude" and boldly pursues and expresses himself. In his works, there is no deliberate pursuit of skill. Everything is elegant and colorful with the expression of interest, and the effect of surprise is achieved inadvertently. For a long time, he has formed his artistic style of calligraphy and printing, which is full of personality, ethereal and elegant, strict in statutes and elegant and indifferent. "China Hard Pen Calligraphy Appreciation Dictionary" says that his calligraphy is "vigorous and powerful, refreshing and powerful, and his words are like wandering immortals, free and easy without losing stability"; "Young Calligraphy" magazine commented on his seal cutting: "The seal cutting process has changed without losing its tradition, and the lines are natural and harmonious, without carving"; Shanghai Writing magazine thinks that his paintings and calligraphy works are "lively in attitude, profound in artistic conception, full of style and full of masculine beauty".

It is true that his writing style and printing style can not be separated from his rich cultural accomplishment. Poetry, prose and art criticism are often scattered in newspapers and magazines, and Chinese painting flowers and birds often participate in exhibitions and win prizes. The efforts beyond these words not only paved his artistic background, but also constructed his temperament as a scholar. Mr. Tian Hengming, the late famous calligraphy critic and researcher of Anhui Social Science Association, spoke highly of Zhou Yongjun's calligraphy seal cutting before his death, saying that his works "reveal a smart and moist interest between brush, ink, knife and stone, and reveal the unique scroll atmosphere of literati calligraphy". Joe thinks: "True literati calligraphy should embody the unity of personality and talent, verve and image, nature and technique. This is a wonderful realm. Although I am working hard on this road, to achieve this goal, there must be two prerequisites, one is an independent personality and the other is a spirit of freedom. "
