Three schools in the history of running script
1, two kings and one faction. From Wang Xizhi to later generations, literati and calligraphers were directly or indirectly influenced by Wang Xuexing's calligraphy system, and their successors were Mi Fei, Zhao Mengfu and Dong Qichang. The school of two kings is the largest school of running script.
2. Yan Tipai. Created by Yan Zhenqing, the traditional brushwork is mixed with the meaning of seal script, and the structure changes from back to back, so it becomes a circle. Representative works include "Sacrificing a Nephew" and "Contending for Seats". Its appearance changed the situation that Wang Shu dominated the whole country, and provided more models for later generations' running script creation, thus promoting the reform and development of the running script system. Wang Zongyan, a calligrapher of later generations, appeared or disappeared, or blended with each other.
3. Weibei School. Calligraphers in Qing Dynasty wrote Wei Bei's posture and brushwork into the running script, which is a kind of running script. Representative calligraphers are Zhao and He.
Nine secrets of writing running script well
There are many styles of running scripts. As far as word formation is concerned, each style of running script has its own personality and * * *, that is, their running scripts have basic rules to be found. Among them, harmony and change are the most inherent rules to guide the writing rules in running script, and many knots are due to the need of harmony and change. Learning and mastering the basic rules of running script can guide our appreciation, copying and creative activities.
1, size and length. First of all, we must grasp the size of the font as a whole. The ancients said that writing was the most feared? Words like operators? In the aspect of structure writing, it is to avoid the unity of word size, so there is no artistry at all. Mastering this law will enable us to grasp the shape of a single word as a whole when copying and creating. This is the easiest mistake for beginners to make in copying.
2, flat edge. For composition, the running script can be vertical or horizontal, but the center of gravity of the words should remain stable. Different styles of running scripts have different degrees. For example, Mi Fei's running script is higher than Zhao Ziang's.
3. Save the link. Another big difference between running script and regular script is that the strokes in running script echo each other, which strengthens the directionality of stippling and makes the expression of qi stronger, which is reflected in the simplification of strokes. These connected strokes form different interesting combinations and contrast.
4. Contraction and expansion. In order to contrast the needs of change, one stroke (part) of a word shrinks left and right, highlighting another stroke (part); In order to contrast the needs of change, one stroke (part) of a word is stretched up and down, and the other stroke (part) is contracted.
5. The density is even and clear. Regular script is generally well-proportioned, the cloth surface of running script is much richer than regular script, and the cloth surface of running script is even, clear and dense. This is also easy for beginners to make mistakes, and it is easy to write out words that are not neat and have no meaning at all.
6. Open and close. The so-called openness means that the strokes of words have a tendency to expand outward; The so-called combination means that the strokes of Chinese characters tend to gather inward. Also called opening and closing? Back? The back is open and that one is closed. In Mihang's book, the palace is tight, and the word is mainly open (back), while Yan Xingshu is tight outside and loose inside, and the word is mainly close (to). In fact, every calligrapher's handwriting is open and closed, or open and closed, which is vivid.
7. Give and take. Only when there is concession within the characters can the strokes be interspersed and echoed and unified. It should be pointed out that running script is more important than regular script. Regular script also keeps the strokes in characters from overlapping, while running script sometimes has several strokes connected and overlapping.
8. The level is uneven. In order to avoid the uniformity of the characters, the parts of the characters are staggered moderately, but the center of gravity is stable, vivid and interesting, from which we can also appreciate the calligrapher's creative performance. If some words are misplaced up and down, some words are misplaced left and right.
9. Everything that remains the same will change. The same stippling in a word needs different treatment; The same part of a word should also be changed; When words with the same radicals are together, the radicals should also be changed; In a work, the same word appears many times and needs to be changed.
