"His calligraphy and painting are a family of their own, both tangible and intangible, both thick and cheerful, both vast and simple, both writer and calligrapher, and have made extremely high achievements in the field of culture and art." This is the award speech of Jia Pingwo winning the "First Fang Jinyi Award", which is "very artistic", we may wish to taste it carefully.
"Both tangible and intangible", the tangible and the intangible are organically unified. Is this tangible or intangible? Maybe this means, look at it, there is no shape, take a closer look, it seems to have a form again. To put it bluntly, is it "plausible"? To put it in layman's terms, is it "four different"? Or is it to draw a tiger into a cat?
"Thick and smooth", which means that it looks heavy, but the pen is full of energy? It should mean "lifting a heavy weight" in a martial arts novel, right? That is, martial arts have reached the highest realm, seemingly clumsy and useless movements, but with flawless magic tricks behind the hand? It seems to be full of loopholes, but in fact, it is not leaking?
"Both vast and rustic", this is a bit esoteric. What does this "vastness" mean? Could it be that the pen depicts a dead branch, seemingly chaotic, but expresses the most simple truth? That is, what does it mean to be orderly and clumsy in chaos? Seemingly clumsy, but hidden in another mystery? At my level, I can only understand it here.
Poetry, calligraphy and painting seem to have a certain truth. When I read poetry reviews, it is also a piece of "vastness", completely relying on myself to guess. Now looking at the calligraphy and painting reviews, it is also a "vast expanse", or you have to rely on yourself to guess. Of course, the technical term is not called "guessing", it is called "understanding". Guessing the level of high or low is called "understanding".
If you guess well, if you guess deeply, it is called strong comprehension and "wisdom root". If you can't guess, or guess very plainly, it is not an artistic appreciation ability, and it is best to find another way. Now the review has become a guessing game, and the difficulty is that you can't read this puzzle. So, how to guess it depends on your talent.
However, after more than half a year of cultivation, I found a tried and tested "truth". For "famous" people, such as famous poets, famous writers, famous painters, you just have to guess at the height, how to exaggerate. And none of our current writers, poets, painters, is not famous. Therefore, you don't have to read the comments at all, just praise it, and you can't be wrong.
When you see a poem by a famous poet, even if you can't read it, or if you feel that it sucks and you don't know how to praise it, you say "Zen", "spirituality", "Tiancheng". This not only seems to be poetic, but also appears that you are very spiritual, the best of both worlds, and everyone is happy.
When you see a painting of a famous person, even if you feel like a child's graffiti, when you don't know how to boast, you will be "vast", "simple", "dunhou" ah. This not only shows that the work is very rustic, but also shows that you are very simple, everyone is simple, how good? As for what this "simplicity" is, who cares?
Culture and art are originally very "profound" things, which ordinary "fools" cannot appreciate. In fact, when they created these things, they never thought of showing them to the "fools". And we, the uninteresting "fools", want to mix, isn't this self-deprecating and uninteresting? Or let them entertain themselves and brag about themselves.
Whether they are vast or simple, or Zen or spiritual, that is the technical term within their circle. We outsiders don't understand, that's normal. If we understand every word they say, if we understand every word, then have we not also become "experts" and "famous"? This is absolutely impossible.
