Chapter 20 The text content of the second section of calligraphy must be healthy and positive

Calligraphy can endow meaningful text content with a beautiful form of expression, so that the two beauties can be combined, and its expressiveness and appeal can be enhanced.Zhang Huaiguan, a calligrapher theorist of the Tang Dynasty, said: "It makes the observer play with the traces and explore the feelings, follow the path and observe the changes, and think endlessly, without knowing what happened...Although the traces have been sealed, but the remaining feelings are not exhausted, they are full of thoughts and can't stop. "The beautiful form can make the viewer psychologically more naturally and smoothly accept the infection of the text content in the aesthetic pleasure, so as to fully realize the communication of emotion and thought.This requires the content beauty of calligraphy and the form of calligraphy to be more harmonious and consistent.If the content of a calligraphy work is filthy, vulgar, clichéd, or incomprehensible "poetry", or even a selection of sentences that are inappropriate or prone to misunderstanding, it will affect the aesthetic conception of the work.my country is an ancient civilization with a history and culture of 5,000 years, and is known as the "state of etiquette".In the process of the development of Chinese national culture, calligraphy has actually played the role of an envoy of civilization. It always conveys people's beautiful emotions, noble moral sentiments, lofty ideals of life, and heroic realm of life through writing. Communicate to all levels of society, and even every corner.For example, the Spring Festival couplets we see often have the content of praising the motherland's rivers and mountains or praising diligence and thrift at home, or poems or essays, admonitions to warn the world, always influencing and educating people who have stopped in the past, and giving people life inspiration and teaching. We can see the importance of calligraphy The role of public aesthetic education cannot be underestimated.In modern society, although science and technology are very advanced and the forms of mass media have become increasingly diverse, calligraphy works still have their irreplaceable uses in many occasions.The duty of Chinese calligraphy art is to promote enlightenment, praise and progress, cultivate sentiment, cultivate morality, express emotion, and infect others.What meets this requirement is beauty, otherwise, it is not desirable.Therefore, no matter from the perspective of a calligrapher's ideological realm in life or from the perspective of social civilization's requirements for art, the art of calligraphy must follow such a basic principle, that is, to create beautiful calligraphy with healthy and positive writing content. The artistic conception, purify oneself, educate others.
