Cheng Shifa's early landscape works shallow theory

As far as the creation of Chinese painting, Mr. Cheng Shifa was the earliest landscape painter. After that, he successively covered the painting world with two kinds of characters, flowers and birds, and became popular in the "Cheng family". , Create the heart, write the land of the motherland.

Let's talk about the work of Mr. Cheng Shifa's early landscape creation in the following works. The "early landscape" mentioned here is based on the ten Mr. Tenfays entered the Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts in 1938 to carry out systematic Chinese painting learning and training as an enlightenment. The comic painting is the deadline. This span is about eleven years. During this period, Mr. Cheng Shifa's creation was certainly not limited to landscape paintings, and a considerable number of flowers and birds and characters, some "worldly paintings", seal engraving works, calligraphy creation, etc., but undoubtedly landscape painting was Mr. Shifa from Mr. Shifa in this period. The important creative content also left a lot of high -quality and some classic works, which is extremely valuable for a young painter who is still in the stage of art exploration and the living environment of creative conditions.

Cheng Shifa took a photo in front of his work in his youth

In September 1938, with the support of relatives and friends, 18 -year -old Cheng Yan officially entered the Department of Chinese Painting Department of Shanghai Fine Arts College. The Department of Chinese Painting of Shanghai Fine Arts is divided into two subjects: landscapes, flowers and birds. In addition, there are courses such as literature, aesthetics, painting, poems, and golden stone engraving. One month after entering the school, in order to participate in the US specialized work exhibition, "Spring Rain and Thunder" with ink and ink painted bamboo and stone birds, this is also the earliest official work of the existing gentleman. It is also mounted by myself.

In the "List of Class Acts" in Shanghai Fine Arts in 1938, Cheng Yan's courses that are the first -year freshmen are: the Chinese language of Professor Liu Yongxi, the history of Chinese paintings of Professor Yu Jianhua, the poetics and postscripts of Professor Zhu Tianfan, Li Zhonggan (Li Jianlian (Li Jian ) Professor Jin Shixue, calligraphy, and seal engraving, Wang Yizheng, Wang Shengyuan, Professor Wu Yizhi's Chinese painting internship, and the painting theory of Professor Wu Yanzhi. This was the Chinese painting teaching in modern schools that was quite advanced at the time. The basic settings of the course met the needs of cultivating Chinese painting practitioners with literati literacy.

Cheng Shifa prefers the landscape, and he also uses the most effort. In the famous master of ancient artists, he most respects Fang Congyi (Fang pot) who is "unable to follow". The management of the arts is relatively loose. In the classroom, he was able to use his favorite performance method to create. As a result, the result was that some teachers who handed over the work were dissatisfied and unwilling to review. Although the New Culture Movement was in full swing at that time, and the criticism of traditional Chinese paintings was endless, but the painting scene, especially landscape paintings, was shrouded in the veins of the "Four Kings" painting at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, and the flowers and birds were the most freehand freehand of Wu Changshuo. Popularity.

Fortunately, Mr. Wang Yizhen expressed his support for the young man. Later, Wang Lao also gave a poem to a landscape of Cheng Shifa: "Cheng Sheng is not still, and his chest is extremely small. Fusu has a conference, there is no restraint in the pen and ink. Meng, how to do what you do.

Until graduating in 1941, there were not many paintings of Mr. Shifa who stayed in the arts college. Professor Liang's ink painting "Imitation of Eight major landscapes". In short, the appearance of students' works is not yet available.

After graduating from graduation, Mr. Zhang Jinzhang had a good relationship with his classmates, but he had no job in job hunting at home because most of the society needs applied talents at that time. "In that era, in addition to the pattern and art education department, students who studied art must be graduated after graduation. It is quite difficult to get a living in society. " In order to take care of graduate students' livelihoods -especially in October 1942, her daughter Xin Yan was born, and Cheng Shifa upgraded to his father -it was initiated by the US professors such as Wang Yizhen, Li Zhonggan, Wang Shengyuan, etc., from November 9th to November On the 15th, the "Cheng Tong Painting Exhibition" was held on the fourth floor of Daxin Company (now Caiye Store). This exhibition is mainly based on landscape works. Cheng Shifa drew paintings such as "Imitation of Li Liu Fang's Winning Mountains and Water", "Lian Li Lanfeng Fishing Return", "Imitation of Baiyangshan Renmutu" and other paintings. However, there is no background and no upper -level figures, and the paintings are not good for the citizens.

In the following two or three years, Mr. Shifa had only been in the bank staff to support his family, but he never put down his brushes. On January 27, 1944 (in January of Jiashen), the ink landscape painted by the gentleman made a fan, and the inscription: "The long -term painting of the yellow cranes and rivers, but there is no good pen. The slap. With the fate of Wen Shen's second family, the gentleman is also in the middle of the person. . "Writing the ink landscape with the use of Yunjian School has not yet formed a distinctive personal style, but the lines and ink and ink are beautiful and playable. It is the earliest one of the Mr. calligraphy and painting works that can be seen. About thirty years later, Xinhai (1971) showed this fan. In Xinhai Autumn Festival, the fan painted by the year of the year, as if under the light, the rush of painting bottle chrysanthemums, the left still leaves a blank, and it is planned to draw the inscription after the year. Remember. "Mr.'s left half of the left half of the left half of the white is not only a typical Cheng's humor, but also a good blessing to the player, and wish him a long life. I just have no longer chance. After the years, I failed to practice, leaving this strange fan. Although there was regrets, it became an orphan. For more than half a year of staff career, Mr. had to return to his hometown for recuperation due to illness. The gentleman suffers from the disease, and the wound of the neck is difficult to heal for a long time, and the delay is even more dangerous. Coincidentally, by chance, he met an old man at the West Lake in Hangzhou and taught a recipe with hippocampus before he told the wound to heal. The "Shi Tao painted ink and landscapes" painted at the end of 1945, the inscription: "Yizhi's ugly moon imitation of the Shi family monk, writing the semi -farm method, the snow church, the puppet water." It was the painter's illness. " It will be done when you raise your body.

In the next three years, Mr. has been living in Songjiang, and his body has recovered. He participated in the elegance of the Gwangguang Guoyi Society with calligraphy and painting friends. Although the exhibition, although the work is sold well, the works of the current customs are far from the original artistic concept of Mr. Mr.. Coupled with the eldest son Cheng help in May 1945, Cheng Duoduo, a child Cheng Duo in August 1947, has fallen to the ground. The conditions for renting the old house for rent are poor and the income is meager.

It can be considered that in the past few years, Mr. Cheng Shifa has worked hard to paint, and he has never dropped Dan Qing. He used the enthusiasm of learning painting when he was a teenager. For example, the pressure of the mountain, the "Four Kings" far on the painting paper, chased the former sages of Song Yuanming, and "blood war" with the ancients. Especially in 1948 (Wuzi), the boutiques of the antique paintings of Mr. Tenfa in this year are endless, as if the sword is quenched and frost.

Those who can be counted are as follows (most of them are landscapes, a few flowers and birds):

Ding Hai December 5th (January 15, 1948), painted "Snow Mountain Travel", "Lishu Shubao and participated in the text of the five peaks."

In February of Wuzi, "Lintonbi Qiao Yiyouju slightly participated in the big idiots Tianchi stone mural method", painting "Snow View Mountains and Rivers" was large.

On March 19th, the "Ge Zhichuan Migration Map" of Wang Meng in the Linyuan Dynasty.

It is expected in April, and made a large green landscape "Imitation of the Huangheshan people to write the Tang poetry". The whole picture layout is full, with multiple hooks and less pens. In the meantime, there are colorful flowers and trees, the stream is faint, the mountains are like Dai Floating water, the pen and ink are elegant and the color is ancient and bright, and the color and ink are full and not stuffed. The gentleman is not to ancient times, and the style of imitation of the original work is combined and exerted his own intentions.

On May 9th, painted Zhao Mengfu to Huangye's "Map".

On May 12th, painted "Snow and Birds and Birds of Mind".

On July 21st, the "Autumn Map" was painted in the Ming Dynasty.

In July, I painted "Lin Ma Linjing Listening to Songfeng Tu", and the inscriptions: "When the corner of the Yu Lingma family was still in a weak crown, there was a seeing the painter, and the laughed stones were like a corner, and the tree was defeated. After receiving it, it will not be repeated, and I am afraid to leave a sip. In recent years, the Northern Song Dynasty paintings and the Southern Song Dynasty are good. Seeing Ma Jia's masterpieces also think about it. I am afraid of falling in Zhejiang. Afterwards, he was from Wu Shangyuan, and he was complacent. The guest suspected that Yun Linliu was quite powerful, and his words were broken. "

On August 6th, painted "The Song of the Six Mountains of the Tang Dynasty", the middle of the frame was quiet, the waterfall flowing spring, the mountainside was lush, the branches were old, and the bays were covered. The meander to the stubbornness increased the depth of the picture. A hidden man and the boy looked at the leaning rail. Although Gao Shi was as small as beans, Xuan Ang's free style was alive. On the basis of the original painting, the painter also added his own exploration and understanding of the pen and ink, especially the processing of pine needles. Since the original details can be discerned, it is better to go out of the machine, write self -writing, treat the former sages antique, but not to be ancient. Highly the same personal style has begun to see. The whole pen is elegant and elegant. Although it is still in the stage of self -study exploration, you can see that the painter has a solid work, and the ink rhyme is vivid. Tang Jieyuan's free and free style. On August 22nd, painted "Lintong Academy".

In August, it was also painted into "Imitation of Wang Mengya Yishan Zhai Map". The color of the color uses brighter anthocyan and vermiculite, revealing the characteristics of the painting of the painting of Mr. painting, and the color of the color is not reconciled. In his later years, as he deepened the color research on color, he became more naturally coordinated.

In the autumn, painting "Imitation of the Tang Dynasty". The date of the above paintings is the lunar calendar instead of public calendar.

During this period, Mr. Lin's work was painted in "Yinzhong Zhai" and cured the seal of "Yin Zhai". There are two meanings. One Wen Zhengming has the seal of "sealing Zhai". The version of the print is created, so take this name. Literally speaking, it can be regarded as a painter's first impression (seal) of the work first, and then plus the self -play (creation). Generally speaking, it does not lose its style, but it can not be stepped on.

At that time, the painter's copy of the ancient monuments was mostly on the album of "Palace Painting and Calligraphy Collection". This set of albums was edited by the Peiping Palace Museum, and the Koho version of Xuan Paper from the Beijing -Hua Yin Book Bureau. From October 1930 to September 1936, a total of 45 issues were issued. The treasures of treasures in the Forbidden City have begun here with the masterpiece of the Coro's version of the painting and calligraphy. Although this is the case, the early printing quality is not highly known. Not only does it restrict the size of the image, the picture is black and white, and the details such as the end of the branches and the characters' eyebrows are blurred. Perhaps it can be said that it is because of the poor quality of the graphic, but instead allows Mr. to imitate the cover and restraint of the Qianxian boutique, which also inspires the extraordinary talent of the painter and can show his fists.

By 1949, the mountain and rivers of the motherland were changed. Rhyme ".

In the past, you can see Mr. Shifa's spirit of exploration of traditional pen and ink, and straightforward ancient sages, and antique but not superstitious about the ancient people and can be used as the spirit of independent art. "My Fa", which is admired here, is more than Mr. Mr.'s art?

On May 27, 1949, Shanghai was liberated. In the second half of the year, Cheng Shifa took a pavement, with the "Speech at the Yan'an Symposium", which had already turned over several times, and came to Tianma Mountain, Songjiang. I saw the "land reform movement" in the countryside, and the painter thought about it ...

Although the above small text talks, in fact, it is more about the column of Mr. Shifa's early works. But as far as Mr. Shifa's work is now reserved, the height of his 28 -year -old art is amazing. However, Mr. has not stopped here, but he can break through, and he has created the new style that his predecessors have not. In the end, the "Cheng family" that is appreciated by the elegant and vulgarity is well -known at home and abroad. All have achieved extremely high achievements, and have become the leading figures and master art masters of modern sea -style painting world, which has been endless. Looking at the landscape in his early years, you can see the talent and efforts of Mr. Shifa, which also indicates that his achievements have not been said afterwards!
