Who can tell me about Zong Baihua's book Aesthetics and Artistic Conception?

Zong Baihua. Aesthetics and artistic conception. People's Publishing House, 1987.

Zong Baihua's aesthetics and artistic conception are the crystallization of his life-long aesthetic thought. Mr. Zong Baihua has published many profound and unique opinions in artistic conception theory, poetics theory, artistic creation theory and artistic dialectics, and formed his complete aesthetic thought.

On calligraphy. Aesthetics and artistic conception point out: "Jin people are natural and unrestrained, and this beautiful free soul has found an art that is most suitable for expressing itself." This is a cursive script in calligraphy. The cursive art is purely a magical machine, and there is no way to do it. It all depends on the ease of painting when writing, the interest of each stroke, from beginning to end, in one go, and the freedom of procession ... This wonderful art can only be compared with the minds of Jin people. "

On Chinese painting. Aesthetics and Artistic Conception says: "China people think that the depths of this universe are invisible and colorless void, which is the source of all things, the root of all things, and the creativity of endless voices. Laozi and Zhuangzi are called Tao, nature and nothingness, and Confucianism knows the position of heaven. Everything is born out of nothing and returns to nothing. So the blank on the drawing paper is the real foundation of Chinese painting. Western painting first smears the bottom of the painting with various colors, and then simulates the elusive real scene of the witness's hand according to the far-near method or the bright perspective method. Its field is a limited specific field in the world. Chinese painting, on the other hand, randomly places a few words in the blank. I don't know whether the characters are in space or space because of the characters. People and space, integrated into one, have endless colors and vitality. We feel that in this boundless space, there are only a few people, and not too few. And these people don't feel that there is no world in this blank environment. Because the blank at the bottom of Chinese painting is not a vacuum in the whole artistic conception of painting, but a place where the universe is full of aura and life flows. Da Zhongguang said:' Virtual reality and reality coexist, and everything without painting has become a wonderful place.' The blank drawn by artists is the "nothingness" of Laozi and Zhuangzi's worldview, the source of all things and the foundation of all things. "
