The development of China calligraphy art

Calligraphy art is the quintessence of China and the representative of China cultural elements, which is different from other art types. Because of its elegance and vulgarity, it has unique plastic arts and elegance. With the information and internationalization of society, the rapid rise and development of digital network media, the writing of Chinese characters was once in an embarrassing situation, and Chinese people became more and more unfamiliar with the art of calligraphy, even to the point where they could not write. What is culture? The premise of culture is words, and learning without words gradually becomes mechanical and boring, and even loses the fun of learning. The spread of calligraphy art is facing challenges from all sides. Under the changing social and cultural environment, how to use the competition mechanism to realize the marketization of calligraphy art communication to protect calligraphy culture? This is worth pondering. Therefore, we should keep a clear head, adhere to the mass media to lead the mainstream of the spread and development of calligraphy art, purify the creative environment of calligraphy art, let people strengthen their knowledge and understanding of China traditional culture, let the appreciators of calligraphy art better understand the creators' intentions, create a good living environment for calligraphy art, constantly enhance the self-confidence and pride of China people, promote the development of national calligraphy art, and expand the social value of contemporary calligraphy art, tap the value of the confluence of art and science to realize the sustainable development of calligraphy art.

the relationship between appreciation and practice of calligraphy

the appreciation and practice of calligraphy are interrelated, which has never been seen by calligraphers who are "superior in their eyes and inferior in their skills". Calligraphers of past dynasties are mostly calligraphy critics with high appreciation ability. They all attach great importance to "reading posts". The so-called "reading posts" is to understand the artistic style and techniques adopted or created by calligraphers by observing the traces of books and inscriptions, so as to improve their appreciation level. For a person who is interested in learning calligraphy, it is also necessary to pay attention to reading posts, gradually learn the ability to analyze and appreciate calligraphy works, learn from their strengths, and strive for their weaknesses in order to continuously improve their calligraphy level. If we analyze and appreciate calligraphy works indiscriminately, we will often make slow progress and even take detours. This is an extremely complicated problem, and there are always different opinions. So far, there is not a common appreciation standard.

kang Youwei put forward ten criterions for commenting on Sixteen Cases of Guang Yi Shuang Ba, namely, the so-called "Ten Beauties": "First, boldness, second, brilliant weather, third, bold brushwork, fourth, bold and thick stippling, fifth, fantastic mood, sixth, energetic, seventh, full of interest, eighth, full of bones and holes, and ninth, structure. Guo Shaoyu put forward six criteria in How to Appreciate Calligraphy: "First, form, natural structure, horizontal and straight, peaceful; second, courage, from the perspective of pen power and ink; third, attitude, flying; fourth, genre, not sticking to the tablet, not looking at the tablet according to the standard; fifth, learning, relations other than calligraphy; sixth, meteorology, simplicity and serenity."

These can be used as references when analyzing and appreciating calligraphy works. If further summarized, it is nothing more than the words "shape" and "spirit". The so-called "shape" refers to the shape composed of special strokes and lines, including the strokes, structure and layout of a word. The so-called "spirit" refers to the inner spirit in the above-mentioned shape, including pen power, imposing manner and emotion. Therefore, to appreciate calligraphy works, we should not only look at the shape of every painting, every word and the whole word, but also look at its brushwork, momentum and manner. If the appearance is beautiful and colorful, and the inside is full of energy, this is what people usually call a good work with both form and spirit.
