I once sent him tea and saw newspapers piled up like hills with copybooks all over the floor. Wang Xizhi's Post on a Clear Snow, Mid-Autumn Festival Post, Yuan Bo Post, Preface to the Lanting Pavilion, Memorial to the Nephew by Yan Zhenqing, Huangzhou Cold Food Post by Su Shi, Diantie by Zhong Nimeng, Autobiographical Post by Huai Su and Susu Post by Mi Fei.
I don't know calligraphy. I only heard Gao Fei say that the successful art of calligraphy should be that the lines and structures of every word are beautiful, and the whole calligraphy is composed as a whole, just like a beauty. One word is her five senses and limbs. Putting them together should be coordinated in proportion, interrelated and properly spaced, which can be described as sparse but not leaking. But also for the whole structure.
A work should embody a certain artistic conception of beauty. The pen and structure of every word should embody and reach the realm of beauty.
Calligraphy works should be seen. China's ancient art theory has long put forward both form and spirit. In calligraphy theory, God, as the opposite of form, is very clear and unambiguous. There is a saying in Wang Sengqian's Wen Yi Zan in Southern Qi Dynasty: "The wonderful way of a book is that the spirit is the highest, followed by the form and quality. The category of spirit is the category of artistic conception and emotion
When it comes to spirit, people will think of poetry. In the country of poetry, the aesthetics of poetry determines the aesthetics of other arts. The aesthetic content of artistic conception in calligraphy can rely on poetry, that is, calligraphy can be appreciated as poetry, and you will find the artistic conception beauty of calligraphy everywhere.
When we appreciate the art of calligraphy, we often talk about that Jin people respect rhyme, Tang people respect law, Song people respect meaning and Ming people are interested. And regard this as the unchanging principle of appreciating calligraphy. If calligraphy works are judged and created as poems, paintings and music, it is still unknown whether it can integrate the rhyme, method, meaning and interest of predecessors, expand and innovate the philosophical content of traditional calligraphy in essence, and thus create brand-new calligraphy works.
Facing calligraphy, poetry, music, painting and other works of art, everyone's appreciation and understanding are different. As long as you get enjoyment from it, get pleasure and cause abuse, it's good.
After practicing calligraphy, Gao Fei sold the old newspaper, in fact, he sold more than 500 kilograms. The boss who collects junk also chooses a lot to sell as calligraphy works.
In recent years, Gao Fei has participated in many national calligraphy competitions and won many awards.
