1, inheritance. The foundation and premise of innovation and development is inheritance. Only inheritance can innovate and develop, but what is the key? Is it to inherit the calligraphy spirit, creativity and principles of our ancestors, or to stick to their words and deeds? Obviously, it is the former. Only by grasping the characteristics and implication of calligraphy can we understand and understand the life and essence of calligraphy.
2. development. Development and inheritance are an organic whole. Only by inheriting it well can it develop well. The deeper the roots, the more lush the trees. Now many of our calligraphy masters, on the one hand, talk about innovation and development, on the other hand, they are antique, and their brushwork and painting method are slightly different from those of the ancients, so they shout, "You write this word! The ancients didn't write like this! " For thousands of years, after the foundation and exploration of countless literati, literary scholars and professional calligraphy scholars, calligraphy culture has become colorful and swaying. Not only every word, there are many ways to write cursive script. For example, there are four ways to write "Li", which are the brushwork of Wang Xizhi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Sun in the Tang Dynasty, Huai Su in the Tang Dynasty and Changyu in the Yuan Dynasty. Moreover, due to the change of composition, even the same author, in the same article, a word often has many ways of writing and structure. For example, Wang Xizhi's Preface to Lanting has 20 "zhi", but they are all different. Therefore, the cursive writing of a word is different, which is either the cultural accumulation of ancestors in previous dynasties or the requirement of cursive writing. Therefore, in reality, we should grasp the inherent characteristics of cursive script. For different cursive writing structures of different writers, we should be calm, not kill them with a stick! They are all labeled as "Jianghu style", how can we talk about innovation and development, and how can we face and explain the calligraphy achievements of each founder in different periods!
At the same time, innovation, development and development should also keep pace with the times. Now we have entered the era of information and data. How to organically integrate calligraphy into the tide of informationization and data is an urgent problem to be considered and faced in the innovative development of calligraphy!
