Xu Wei is a native of Wen Qing, Tianchi Mountain, and other nicknames, such as Tian Danshui, Tianchi Sheng, Tianchi Fishing Hidden, Ivy Old Man, Jin Lei, Jin Hui Mountain Man, Yinshan Buyi, Baiyin Mountain Man, Goose Nose Shan Nong, etc. In his later years, he became an Ivy League Taoist, or signed Tian Shuiyue. Yin Shan (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang) was born. Living in Shaoxing, there are "Yizhitang", "Persimmon Tang Ye" and "Ivy Bookstore". Born in the 16th year of Zhengde in Ming Dynasty (152 1), he died in the 21st year of Wanli in Ming Shenzong (1593).
Xu Wei always leads a dissolute life and is not interested in power. When an official comes to draw, it is even difficult to say a word. In today's world, anyone who comes to ask for paintings must be worthy of Xu Wei's lack of money. At this time, if someone comes to paint, they can get it in an instant. If he is not short of money in his bag, then no matter how much you give, it is rare to get a painting. What a man of temperament.
The contrast between Xu Wei's calligraphy and the dull calligraphy in the early Ming Dynasty is particularly prominent.
After Zhu Yunming, Xu Wei's way of learning books, like Zhu Yunming's, belongs to two kings and one vein without exception. He appreciates Wang Xizhi's character and calligraphy. As a fellow countryman, he followed Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, but it was the Song people who had the greatest influence on him, among which Mi Fei took the most calligraphy.
He said excitedly in the postscript of Ink on Minnan Public Book: "I have read many books in Minnan Public Book, and I am relaxed and relaxed. Without this post, I found a vast land and unique scenery. " Without extensive research, it is impossible for him to make a proper evaluation of Xiao San Shuang Yi, which shows his profound understanding of Mi Fei. Xu Wei is good at magnificent weeds, but it is difficult for ordinary people to accept them. His pen and ink are wanton and messy. He is very conceited about his calligraphy. He believes that "my book is the first, poetry is the second, literature is the third and painting is the fourth".
He once said in "Title from Book": "A high book is not vulgar, and a vulgar person is not a high book. However, this statement can also be said to the knowledgeable, but it is difficult to say to the layman. " No wonder how many "knowers" are there?
