What are the famous calligraphers in China? What genre are they good at?

Speaking of well-known calligraphers in China, there are countless of them.

The first thing that comes to my mind is "Wang Xizhi". His "Orchid Pavilion Preface" became a hot topic in the mouths of junior high school and high school teachers, and this is how it was known to me. As a well-known calligrapher in ancient China, his calligraphy has also had a significant impact on later generations.

He is good at cursive, line, regular script, etc. Its cursive structure is simple and economical, with continuous strokes. The line script gives a sense of ease, while the regular script is upright and the strokes are straight.

He has studied every genre of books and has a great deal of attainment.

Yan Zhenqing is also a great calligrapher. His calligraphy masterpieces are also numerous. Among them, there is the "Qinli Monument" praised by the population.

He is good at calligraphy: line script, regular script, these two types of calligraphy can best represent his calligraphy attainments. Therefore, his book style is also called "Yan Ti".

His style emphasizes bone strength, and each stroke is tenacious and powerful. Later generations of calligraphers also used his calligraphy to practice basic skills.

There are also many well-known calligraphers in modern China. Among them is the great Grandpa Mao. Although Grandpa Mao is a politician, his talent is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Because he loved writing, calligraphy, poetry, and words, he was proficient in everything. He is involved in almost all kinds of calligraphy, line script, regular script, cursive script, etc., there is nothing he can't master, what a generation of great people!

There are many well-known calligraphers in China, such as Wang Xianzhi in ancient times, Zheng Banqiao, Li Shutong in modern times, Guo Moruo, etc. Each one of them is quite good. Wang Xianzhi is talented and famous for his cursive and line writing.

Zheng Banqiao combines calligraphy and painting, involving seals, lines, cursive scripts, etc. Li Shutong used calligraphy to promote the scriptures, and the calligraphy was serene and solemn. Guo Moruo pays attention to calligraphy innovation, and is famous for his cursive calligraphy, and his pen is refreshing and free.

There are countless famous calligraphers, so I won't introduce them all here. We also need to learn calligraphy and understand calligraphy!

There are many famous calligraphers in China, such as Wang Xizhi, he is known as the "sage of calligraphy", he has a wide range of calligraphy, and is good at both calligraphy and cursive. Yan Zhenqing is also very accomplished in calligraphy. And his own school of "Yan Ti" has become the first calligraphy that many people who love calligraphy strive to imitate.

Wang Xianzhi, as the seventh son of Wang Xizhi, was deeply influenced by his father. He has made achievements in regular script, line script, cursive script, and official script, but he is especially good at line script and cursive script.

Chinese culture is broad and profound, and Chinese characters have undergone 5,000 years of change and development. It has become the most spoken language in the world. Since ancient times, there have been many achievements in calligraphy in China, and calligraphy is no longer single, but many calligraphers have created their own fonts.

Regular script, line script, cursive script, official script, etc. are all fonts on Chinese calligraphy. Wang Xizhi, the most famous calligrapher of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Born into a prominent local family, he studied calligraphy since he was a child and developed a strong interest in calligraphy from an early age.

When he was a child, he loved calligraphy very much, and even when he usually walked, he practiced calligraphy, constantly gesturing on his clothes, and his clothes were torn after a long time. It was this effort that laid the foundation for his achievements in calligraphy and made him an extremely influential calligrapher. And his work "Orchid Pavilion Collection Preface" is also known as "the first line of books in the world".

Wang Xianzhi, and his father Wang Xizhi are known as the "two kings", it can be seen that Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy is not inferior to his father Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. From this point of view, Wang Xizhi's cultivation of his son in calligraphy is also very successful. His knowledge of calligraphy is even more extensive than that of his father, not only because of his solid calligraphy skills, but also because of the era in which he lived.

He became famous late, so he can win on the strengths of others, so he is good at calligraphy fonts.

Yan Zhenqing, his calligraphy achievement is the calligrapher with the highest skills and the most far-reaching influence after the "two kings". In calligraphy, he became a "face style" and became a new type of font for later generations to learn calligraphy. Yan Zhenqing has loved calligraphy since he was a child, and when he was a child, he lacked calligraphy because of limited family conditions.

He dipped his pen in mud and practiced writing on the wall. "Yan Ti" established Yan Zhenqing's immortal status in regular script, making him himself an influential calligrapher in the history of Chinese calligraphy.

China's contemporary calligraphy masters, the ten living calligraphers are Li Duo, Shen Peng, Liu Yi, Quan Xijun, Ouyang Zhongshi, Zhang Hai, Zou Dezhong, Zhang Biao, Zhang Guangxing and Lin Xiu.
