Xu's character is iron.

Freeze slowly

At that time, Mr. Zhao, president of Xuanyuan Culture Painting and Calligraphy Institute of Henan Province, made an appointment to preface two picture books edited by him. When I met a work, the inscription on the preface of Lanting, and the handwritten postscript between the lines was very Song and Yuan Dynasties. I was worried that what I opened was not a contemporary album, but an ancient law post. I forgot to wear glasses because of myopia. As I approached, I saw the name "Bing Xu".

I like calligraphy and often make friends with artists who write well. Although we didn't meet and didn't know each other, I thought, what are we meeting for? What about getting to know each other? Reading his ink and feeling the essence in his bones can be called communication beyond the general meaning.

From then on, I took Bing Xu as a friend in my heart. Every time I enjoy those two albums, I always turn to the page with his works on it and feel the dots he wrote in blank handwriting.

Brothers Han Bing, a writer, accidentally got a good poem Seven Cups of Wine. I like it very much. I tried to get someone to write it down on paper, but I never got it. In desperation, I had to send the electronic version to Mr. Zhao from the Internet and said, "You know many calligraphers, let him write it for you." Calligraphy pays attention to both internal and external cultivation, combining them. When Mr. Zhao saw the work, he pondered for a long time. After a while, he replied, "Why don't you ask Mr. Bing Xu from Kaifeng to write it for you?"

Once I hear it, what else can I say? I want results.

So I have an original fine print of Xu Bing in hand. This work has a far-reaching flavor, just like the romantic life in Wei and Jin Dynasties. I heard the wind blowing in my ear. In the early summer of May and June, I dated a girl under a tall poplar tree. When I looked down, nephrite was fragrant, and when I looked up, it was dense leaves. This situation is almost the deepest feeling of Bing Xu's calligraphy. His fine print is really like the leaves of an poplar tree. When the wind blows, they are sparse and dense, and dense and sparse, but the breath that permeates them is like a kind of beauty. You can admire them from a distance, smile and frown, and be natural and graceful.

This is the result of more than 20 years' research on the two kings of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Therefore, the rhythm obtained between strokes is informal but orderly. It is easy to be informal, and it is not difficult to have a vision. It is difficult to have an eye for the informal part, and it is also difficult to have an eye for the informal part.

Wei and Jin dynasties were informal, and Tang and Song dynasties were orderly. Xu Bingxing walked between Wei, Jin, Tang and Song Dynasties. In the Qing Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty said: "The writing should be old and the landscape should be new. Why not get rid of the old stereotypes? " . Bing Xu naturally understood these truths, so his calligraphy kept his own personality while keeping the breath of predecessors.

Bing Xu's fine print is as good as that of the Ming Dynasty, and his appearance can basically pretend to be Jiangnan people, while the dense water vapor of Mohism is even more dazzling, making people unable to tell the north from the south.

The art of calligraphy and painting must learn from the testimony of predecessors and walk freely in the ancient atmosphere, so as to wash away the present secularity and produce new interests. Xu Bingbo adopted the strengths of the ancients, was not confused by the laws of the ancients, and followed the laws of the ancients to explore calligraphy.

That day, I went to Zhao's teacher's house to get a message. He made an appointment with Bing Xu, and we had a drink and chat together. After a long talk, I deeply felt that Xu Bing was slowly freezing. Rome was not built in a day, so it is true. After returning home, I said to myself: Bing Xu doesn't care, and he is extremely indifferent; Bing Xu wants something. He is very persistent in art.
