The beautiful writing of Mingzi is as follows:

China’s five thousand years of splendid civilization and unparalleled rich written records have been recognized by the world. In this extensive and profound history, Chinese calligraphy and painting art reproduces this diachronic evolution process with its unique artistic form and artistic language.

The sister art of calligraphy and painting has interpreted the connotation of China's traditional culture with its complementarity and independence in the evolution of history. Because the tools and materials used in calligraphy and painting creation are consistent.

When talking about the origin of ancient characters and pictures in the Records of Famous Paintings of the Past Dynasties, it is said: "At that time, calligraphy and painting were of the same body without being separated. The image system was created but was still sketchy, and it was impossible to convey its meaning, so there were books. "There is no way to see its shape, so there is a painting." Although calligraphy and painting have the same origin and are comparable, their subsequent development has developed and changed in a complementary and independent manner.

The formation and development of Chinese calligraphy art are inextricably linked to the emergence and evolution of Chinese characters. So what exactly is "calligraphy"? We can understand it from its nature, aesthetic characteristics, origin, and unique expression techniques.

Calligraphy is an abstract symbolic art with four-dimensional characteristics based on Chinese characters and written with a brush. It embodies the basic law of "unity of opposites" in all things and reflects the spirit and temperament of human beings as the subject. , knowledge and cultivation.

Develop the writing quality of text to an aesthetic stage - integrating the concept, thinking, and spirit of the creator, and stimulating the aesthetic emotions of the aesthetic object (that is, a true sense of calligraphy) form).

There are records that can be tested between the late Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties (about the second half of the 2nd century AD to the 4th century AD). However, this does not ignore, downplay or even deny the artistic value and existence of the previous calligraphy art form. historical status.

The origin of Chinese characters and the production of early artistic works all have their own particularity and contemporary characteristics. As far as calligraphy is concerned, although early Chinese characters - oracle bone inscriptions and pictographic characters, the same character has different traditional and simplified versions, and the number of strokes is different.

But it already has the laws of symmetry and balance, as well as some regular factors in the use of pens (knives), knotting, and composition. Moreover, the organization of lines and the changes in the beginning and end of strokes already have the meaning of ink writing and the meaning of brushwork.

Therefore, it can be said that the emergence and existence of previous calligraphy art not only belong to the category of calligraphy history, but also are important examples that can be used for reference and reflection in the development and evolution of art forms for future generations.

China’s historical civilization is a diachronic and linear process, and Chinese calligraphy art shows its own development under such a large background of the times.

In the budding period of calligraphy (from the Yin and Shang Dynasties to the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms), the writing experience consisted of oracle bone inscriptions, ancient inscriptions (bronze inscriptions), large seal scripts (Zhenwen), small seal scripts, official script (eight points), cursive script, running script, The real book and other stages evolve in sequence. During the Ming Dynasty of calligraphy (from the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties), the art of calligraphy entered a new realm.

From seal script to simple cursive script and real script, they became the mainstream styles of this period. The emergence of the great calligrapher Wang Xizhi made the art of calligraphy shine, and his artistic achievements spread to the Tang Dynasty and he was highly respected.

At the same time, a group of calligraphers emerged in the Tang Dynasty, such as Yu Shinan, Ouyang Xun, Chu Suiliang, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan and other famous calligraphers. Each has its own merits and diverse styles in calligraphy attainments. Through the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Chinese calligraphy has become a national symbol, representing the breadth and depth of Chinese culture and the eternal charm of national culture.
