Liu Chengzhang's calligraphy works have been published in Wen Wei Po, Anhui Daily, Anhui Education and Anhui Legal News.
Liu Chengzhang now works in Suzhou Judicial Bureau. 65438-0983 joined Anhui Calligraphy Association, and now he is vice president of Li Bairen Calligraphy Art Research Association, director of exhibition department, deputy director of Li Bairen Art Museum, secretary general of Suzhou Branch of Anhui Poetry Association, executive director and deputy secretary general of Suzhou Calligraphy Association, and vice chairman of Huang Huaihai Calligraphy Association.
Liu Chengzhang made his debut very early: in the first year of high school, a bunch of his new poems (nine poems) were selected into the Collection of Poems by young writers in the province-in this way, he was crowned as a "poet" and made his debut in the literary world. Later, he changed from a "poet" to a "poet" and became fascinated with lyrics writing; Later, he became a professional playwright. He turned to writing "prose" after the "new period". Yes 1982 (he was 45 years old at this time). As the saying goes, "people reach middle age", but he started "middle-aged reform": from then on, he devoted himself to writing prose! His creative track, from "poetry" to "ci" and "drama" and finally to "prose", created and perfected him. He later said: where is a person's "outstanding talent"? I often don't even know myself. I have no choice but to "try" several art forms (the process of trying is the process of understanding and discovery) in order to finally find out where my artistic "cells" are. After "trying" the above various art forms, he said, "It seems that I am more suitable for prose creation." "However, my previous efforts in writing poems, lyrics and plays were not in vain. They all come in handy in prose. " This statement is correct. The "prose" he later wrote was really "regenerated" from the spirit of his original poems, words and plays-not "copying" the external appearance, but "using" the internal essence. Bring vitality and originality to your "prose"!
He wrote the most and the best prose is the so-called "amorous feelings-verve prose". The earliest publication of Zhuan Jiu Qu inspired him and made him take a key step of "political reform in middle age". But in retrospect, it is not without regret: this hahaha not only means some "characters" (such as Ye Ye, Dabei, Fu, etc. There are traces of "weaving", which seems to be intentional; Moreover, the finishing touch at the end of the article also made people read the "Yangshuo flavor" and fell into a rut, indicating that it was not completely independent in art. According to my own thinking, he was enlightened in 1985 (called "the year of ideas" by the literary and art circles), and his artistic feeling was suddenly enlightened. Old memories, high heels resounding through the streets of Suide and so on are quite wonderful. Look at Old Yellow Wind, how wonderful it is! It is still on the other side of the mountain (at least ten miles away) and has not been blown down, but its "power" has been felt. Look again when you come: "Large tracts of crops are lying on the ground. The bird died on the rock. Chicken flies dog jumps over the wall. " Oh, my god. There are tons of dirt and sand everywhere. As the sky turned dark, the sun "became like a broken basin soaked in the turbid Yellow River". Is anybody there? "It's like being pushed by a giant hand. I can't stand, I can't walk, I can't control myself, and my insides are shaking, like an egg in Huang Er. " This "old yellow wind" blowing in northern Shaanxi-also known as "black boy wind", "son horse wind" and "donkey wind"-is a unique "male wind", which is really unique to Zhang Wa! Of course, writing "wind" is also writing "people" and "spirit" of people. When the old yellow wind is bullying, look at those men and aunts, but they are so calm, calm and laughing! This is the real "soul of northern Shaanxi", which is consistent inside and outside and sets each other off! After reading this article, we should know that the "natural environment" of this treasure land in northern Shaanxi is vigorous and wild; Its "humanistic spirit" is more optimistic, humorous and heroic. At the end of this article: "Isn't it like a rotten red armband?" What a genius! "High heels resound all over the streets of Suide", the oldest town in northern Shaanxi, now shows the most modern and beautiful scenery. Writing "regional customs" can touch "characteristics of the times", and this article can be described as an example. Later, Ansai Waist Drum (1986) raised his prose to a new height. The charm of Ansai waist drum is shocking. If Jia Pingwa's Shaanxi Opera is a symbol of Qin people's spirit, then Liu Chengzhang's Ansai Waist Drum is that he discovered and captured the vitality and charm of northern Shaanxi people from the dance and drums of Ansai Waist Drum! Ansai waist drum is a fiery ode to the vitality of the people in northern Shaanxi, and it is a poetic hymn with heavy connotation in the Loess Plateau. Later, his article "Mountain Hair" written in 1988 took this poetic pen and ink one step further-it was simply a prose poem with good meaning and rhyme. While praising the landforms and customs of northern Shaanxi, He Miaomiao organically unified and combined landscapes with figures, legends and reality. After reading Mao Mao, I thought about it and suddenly realized that the original height and wonder of Mao Mao was precisely because it was transformed by a simple and noble soul! 1994, his "Lift the Raft Tree" is the masterpiece of this kind of prose, which makes this kind of "amorous feelings-verve prose" lead a new standard and shine brilliantly in the history of contemporary prose. In my humble opinion, the boldness of vision and the high level of this work are unprecedented! The rafter is actually a willow in northern Shaanxi. However, the willow is not flattering, but vigorous and upward. Every branch can be made into a rafter, and every tree can be cut to sixty or seventy. "If it is cut, it will be cut back and forth endlessly." If you add up its lifelong dedication, every tree is a forest! Obviously, this is a tragic dedication on barren land! Liu Chengzhang discovered the "rafter tree" and found himself at the same time. He wrote that this willow tree waited alone for thousands of years. "The Pacific Ocean is so deep, it is not as good as this willow tree!" When meeting each other, the author splashed ink, freehand brushwork, and enjoyed himself freely. The degree of spiritual liberation, spiritual freedom and free and easy writing of Lift Raft Tree are all first-class.
"Northern Shaanxi was born and raised in northern Shaanxi, because your soul leads this place" ── As far as "writing northern Shaanxi" is concerned, I'm afraid no one can write better than Liu Chengzhang. When he writes about northern Shaanxi, he pursues "soil" (that is, nationalization and localization): poetic soil and spiritual soil, which is close to "believing in heaven". This captures the "soul" of northern Shaanxi and shows the "qi" of his prose! Not only Lao Ji, Ansai Waist Drum, Shan Mao and Tuofu Tree are real "artistic essays", which are unforgettable to read; Even the essays such as Mizhi Fu, Paper-cut in Northern Shaanxi, Looking at the Terracotta Warriors and Freehand brushwork in Loess can be recorded artistically. I think that only with the great success of Style-Charm Prose in Northern Shaanxi can Zhangwa have no regrets!
He also wrote some lyric prose that exposed himself. However, the number of such works is not too large, and the influence is not as great as the above works. Among them, "Tiger Shoes" was written at the earliest, which was the story of wearing tiger shoes for the first time when I was just born with a "full moon". At that time, the narrative "theme" was so small, and the story was purely "heard" and put a lot of effort into "retelling", but it still felt empty and untrue when read; The deliberate prominence of "Tongma" (Liu Zhidan's wife Tong Guirong) also weakened the dominant position of "I". Much better than the following "Pressing the sedan chair": It tells an old story when I was six or seven years old-I lost the right to "press the sedan chair" as a boy because I went to my new home with my remarried mother. At the painful moment of being depressed and hurt, a girl named Qin Juan, ten years older than "me", made a wish: when she got married, she promised to invite "me" to press the sedan chair. Later, as promised, I treated a "my" heart disease. Pressing the sedan chair is an impeccable style-it can also include tiger shoes and when we are like beads and eggs. They are all autobiographical and childlike (suitable for children and teenagers to read). I think these articles about "childhood" can be regarded as autobiographical essays. Broaden it a little, I think Three Chickens can also be counted in it: it is about his three children, and it is "overlooking" and full of affection. Broadly speaking, On the Ancient Land seems to be inclusive. It is about the inseparable relationship between "I" and "mother", and it is really an emotional "ode to mother" with "looking up"! The essays mentioned above, together with Shout of Grass, I like a Yin Feng, Fire Gourd, Feeling of Laundry, and Affection Outside China, are not so "in place" in expressing the profound and true self artistically. He does have some profound understanding. For example, he once said, "Don't forget me"; Which chapter is' I' and which chapter is new! From writing things that belong to me alone (such as those "amorous feelings-verve prose" in northern Shaanxi), he did it; From the perspective of strengthening the consciousness of "self" and expressing the deep humanity of "subject", he has not done enough. This is a little strange. Why is this? I think there are two things that I am afraid of: first, there is a contradiction between "self" and "self" in his mind (as most people who have been educated for 17 years like him do), and he often takes an evasive and downplayed attitude towards "self"; Second, his own life, experience and psychology are very complicated, and some of them are quite "hard to say". Actually, this is not a problem. If we can open the window paper with the courage of "telling the truth" and "taking photos", his unique "self" mind can more profoundly reflect the real life of this era, but it may be outstanding. God-given opportunity, don't give up!
Of course, he also has some other essays, some of which are still wonderful, such as Cats, Revelation of Wild Things, Hukou Waterfall and Visiting My Aunt, so I don't need to say much here.
He once wrote the famous article Ansai Waist Drum, and entered the seventh grade of People's Education Press 17 lesson.
He also wrote Love in Loess, Selected Essays of Liu Chengzhang, Exquisite Sunshine, Reading Monuments, Yang Siyun, Walking into new york, Ansai Waist Drum and so on.
He used to be a teaching assistant of the department, a screenwriter of Yan 'an Song and Dance Troupe, editor-in-chief of Writer, deputy director of the Literature and Art Department of Shaanxi People's Publishing House, and vice president of Shaanxi Publishing House. He is currently the vice chairman of Shaanxi Writers Association, a member of Chinese Writers Association, the executive director of China Prose Society and a first-class writer. Enjoy special government allowance. I began to publish my works in junior high school (1954). I have written poems, lyrics and plays, and the lyrics have a certain influence.
