Since the late Qing dynasty, the mindset of “promoting stone inscription and downgrading hardwood calligraphy” has a profound influence on the calligraphy culture. Meanwhile, Shen Yinmo chose to interpret hardwood calligraphy in his distinctive perspectives through his aesthetic experiences. Shen learned stone inscription for a long period of time to compensate what he had lost in learning hardwood calligraphy, while he took hardwood calligraphy style as his ultimate aesthetic criteria. Nevertheless, Theses on New Hardwood Calligraphy, released by Chen Zhenlian between 2006 and 2008, include a number of criticisms against Shen’s understanding of hardwood calligraphy, some of which require clarification. This study intends to recover Shen Yinmo’s perspectives, propose what the author has observed, and elaborate the cultural meanings of Shen’s views in the history of hardwood calligraphy. |
