　　With a long history, Chinese painting is a shining pearl in the world's art treasury as well as a treasure of art in China and the East. It is not only loved by Chinese and Eastern people, but also appreciated by Western people. Compared with Western painting , with which the West takes pride, Chinese painting also has its broad and profound connotation and unique national style.

　　Chinese painting is a thorough representation of the painter's multidisciplinary knowledge, self-cultivation, and moral outlook. Through it, we can not only understand the profound meaning of literature, the esoteric and mysterious philosophy, the solid accumulation of history, the rich and colorful natural world, the changes of the climate, but also see the painter's wisdom and true temperament. One of the greatest figures in Western painting, Picasso, once warmly praised Chinese painting: "When it comes to art in this world, the first place is China. The magic of Chinese painting is that it seems to have nothing, but it actually contains everything."

　　There have been many peaks and a large number of masters in the long history of painting for thousands of years, all of whom have achieved incredible heights in their styles. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially since the reform and opening up, Chinese painting has ushered in another spring. A large number of talented and courageous painters have gone deep into life and absorbed extensively the nourishment of Eastern and Western art. It inherits the ancient method and has the courage to innovate, which greatly promotes the development of Chinese painting. On the Commemoration of the 70th Anniversary of the Victory of the Chinese People's Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, we hereby introduce Mr. Xu Jianjun, a Chinese freehand painter who has made great achievements in the current Chinese painting world and has a unique painting style.

　　Xu Jianjun, descendant of Xuanyuan, founder of Xuanyuan painting school, whose courtesy name is Tao Tuo and art name is Beidou inkstone master. He is now president of the International Federation of Art, member of the Association of Chinese Artists, academician of the Russian Royal Academy of Arts, standing director of Jinghua Printing Press, director of the Academy of Oriental Chinese Painting Art, and was hired by Oxford University as a visiting professor. He was born into a painting family in the 1960s in Zhuji, Zhejiang Province, and has seen the older generation of artists create wonderful paintings since his childhood. After being accepted as a disciple by Zhu Baoqing, Wen said he founded the Regulus School of Painting after enlightenment. His works integrate poetry, calligraphy, painting and printing, and he is the leader of Chinese literate painting. He specializes in calligraphy and painting, and his poetry is simple and elegant, with a profound meaning. In calligraphy, he advocates the integration of post-study and gold and stone, and is good at ink painting brushwork. His seal cutting draws from the North and South Schools, whose printing style is vigorous and boundless and has a very modern sense. He integrated poetry, calligraphy, painting and printing into theoretical research and creative practice, and formed his own unique artistic style. From the perspective of traditional freehand brushwork, literate paintings pursue artistic conception, not for the established method. They do not draw much, but their work is rich in variations. In most cases, poetry, calligraphy and printing appear together, and artists also pay attention to the interest of calligraphy.

　　Xu Jianjun's calligraphy and painting takes the bone method as the inner quality, takes writing as the law, and the brushwork shows the bold personality. After seeing Xu Jianjun's "Carefree Roam", his teacher Zhu Baoqing said: Xu Jianjun's painting is simple and substantial, with the momentum of Mr. Pan, and wrote "Ji Bei Kong Qun" four characters for "Xu Jiejun's Collection of Epigraphy and Painting". Xu Jianjun pointed out that the essence of Chinese painting art is that point, line and block are the basic constituent units, and everything is composed of point, line and block, and the intrinsic quality of point, line and block determines the level of artistic realm, which is called taking the essence from a large number of materials and putting it to good use. Alone Wang Wei's landscape, Su, Wen's bamboo and stones, Mi Fu and his son's clouds and mountains, Liang Kai, Shi Que's abbreviated drawing, Huang Gongwang, Ni Yunlin and other Yuan people's dead wood and bamboo stones, as well as Ming and Qing literati painting worksallhave the above characteristics.

　　Li Chonghua in the Qing Dynasty said in his Poem Zhenyizhai that if a person is good at freehand painting, his work will become vivid when he expresses his intention, while his work will be lifeless after he finishes expressing his intention. Whether he can succeed in freehand painting depends on the artist himself. Chinese flower and bird painting has no shortage of freehand painters since Qingteng and Baiyang initiated the trend of freehand painting. However, those who can truly achieve success have different hearts and emotions. "Intentionality" begins with a thought in the heart, which must have a "sense" different from ordinary people to form its unique "intentionality." By "intentionality", the brush stroke is driven to create freely on paper, and the painter cannot control the handling and finishing of the brush stroke, which is the true state of freehand brushwork creation. As a result, freehand flower and bird creators are in high demand, and simple brushstrokes can be challenging. Whether the brushstrokes fully and effectively present the "meaning" is related to the final success of the work. Therefore, the painter's brushwork skill is a crucial requirement for the success of creation and an essential guarantee. The final requirement of the work is "spirit." When the "spirit" appears on the paper, the morphological representation of the painted object is secondary. The most important thing is the spirit-shaped object, which is detached from the form. The "spirit" of the object and the spirit of the author are one.

　　The development process of freehand flower and bird painting. After Qingteng, Baiyang and Badashanren (Zhuda), there were the Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou, as well as scholars of the sea in the late Qing and early Republic period. In the 20th century, Wu Changshuo, Qi Baishi and Pan Tianshou were famous for their freehand flowers and birds. Later, Wu and Pan had an impact on the development of flower and bird painting in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, while Qi played a crucial role in the development of flower and bird painting in northern China centered on Beijing.

　　Influenced by his teacher Zhu Baoqing, Xu Jianjun's freehand flower and bird paintings are different from these three schools in the form of brushwork and aesthetic meaning, showing obvious personal characteristics, which are characterized by unrestrained style and simplistic brushwork. The success of Wu, Qi and Pan schools is related to their own achievements in the application of calligraphy. Wu Changshuo took Qin's Shiguwen as a breakthrough, Qi Baishi focused on Wei and Han tablets, and Pan Tianshou wrote oracle bone inscriptions, Jin wen and Han tablets. The three are characterized by thick, resolute and concise brushwork, showing the form and power of freehand flowers and birds.

Appreciation of Xu Jianjun's Works

　　Xu Jianjun's freehand flower and bird paintings inherited the strict requirements of the previous swordsman for the quality of the brushstrokes, but did not highlight the brushstrokes themselves, and the brushstrokes are in harmony with the mind, which makes them more scattered and simple. Today's freehand flower and bird painters learn from Wu, Qi, and Pan and make the mistake of exaggerating their brushwork characteristics by believing that freehand brushwork is the layout of brushwork and lacks its inherent allure. Ignoring the strict requirements inherent in the simplicity of freehand brushwork, some painters believe that freehand brushwork is "free" brushwork.

Appreciation of Xu Jianjun's Works

　　Xu Jianjun's paintings attach more importance to meaning than image, so he will not make too much modification to the image. At the same time, the sensation is not arbitrary and has a certain degree of depth under the influence of meaning. The brushwork of his painting is not stagnant, simple but not complicated. Regardless of whether flowers, insects and birds have a kind of peace, this peace is Xu Jianjun's inevitable manifestation away from the common place. In the face of his paintings, a kind of silly interest overflows out of the paper. Song Jiang Kui said, "Carving hurts qi, perfunctory bare bones. If it is contemptible and not delicate, it is the fault of carving; it is a perfunctory mistake that is clumsy and unyielding." Xu Jianjun's work focuses on the direct expression of the mind rather than seeking to please others, so his work presents a unique personality, which is very valuable today.
