Between "this image is not just this image", it gives people a broad imagination space.
"Beauty is alike and unlike", which is the unique view of Qi Baishi, a master of calligraphy and painting. On the 40th anniversary of Qi Baishi's birthday/KLOC-0, we come back to savor and appreciate his paintings and calligraphy, and relive the true meaning of this famous saying. In addition to expressing respect for a generation of masters, we will also have a deeper understanding of Chinese painting, which represents the quintessence of the country. At the same time, we can also interpret the truth of nature and life outside of painting and calligraphy.
He is an immortal master of art. Qi Baishi solved the basic problem of artistic creation that has been debated for many years with a simple sentence "Beauty lies in similarities and differences". In his view, being too similar is kitsch, and sketching is not painting "specimens". If so, artists will become slaves of nature and give up the generalization and refinement of nature and life, which is irresponsible for artistic creation. Too many differences deceive the world, and art is also an objective and natural reflection. Too much difference is a distortion of the objective essence and an irresponsible behavior. Has lost the "real" essence of art, will not fundamentally get the audience. Qi Baishi's success lies in finding the ingenious connection between similarity and dissimilarity, and making immortal contributions to the creation and development of Chinese painting.
Qi Baishi is undoubtedly the most popular painter, which is based on his subtle observation of nature and life and his love for ordinary workers. He brought the traditional "literati painting" from the ivory tower to people. He is good at extracting profound aesthetic thoughts and interests from extremely ordinary life and nature. An ordinary Chinese cabbage, after being treated by Qi Baishi, became the "king of vegetables". He wrote plump and full, and was given the meaning of "innocence". A group of ordinary shrimps, treated by Qi Baishi's pen and ink, became crystal clear and lifelike. Through Qi Baishi's ingenious blank treatment, the shrimp group was quietly put into the water. Therefore, his "Shrimp" has become a classic compulsory course for any Chinese painting learner in the future, and it has also become the focus of ordinary people's understanding of Chinese painting and Qi Baishi.
At first glance, I feel very similar, but when I look closely, I feel a little similar ... The most interesting thing is between similarity and difference! Just like the feeling that "flowers are most beautiful when they are not fully open". I hope you take your time. ...

My views are basically: first, based on reality, beyond reality. That comes from life and is higher than life. Second, the beauty of painting is the highest artistic conception, followed by the appearance of form and quality, and the combination of the two is called wonderful products.
