Qi Baishi is a famous Chinese painting master and people's artist. "In the history of modern painting in China, no painter can be loved by people like Qi Baishi."
He opened up a good road for us. He made us believe that Master Qi Baishi was not far away, and even let us see the shadow of the old man clearly. On this road, Mr. Wang unremittingly explored and carried forward the painting skills of Qi School, with no regrets. Wang Mi (alias: Wang Mi), a famous contemporary female painter, is grateful for the teacher's practice: in the Chronicle of Lou Shibai Art compiled by Lou Shude, the son of Mr. Lou Shibai, some people say that it is good to enjoy the cool under a big tree, but it is difficult to become a big tree under a big tree. Lou Shibai caught a cold, but he had to bear great pressure. No matter who knows, this pressure first comes from Qi Baishi's position in the history of China painting and his extraordinary artistic attainments, which is also the name of the old man Baishi. In addition, there are some bad habits from society, mistakes in the Cultural Revolution. With the pressure of following him all the time, a major problem facing Lou Shibai is inheritance and development. In this regard, he must pay more sweat than others, see himself more clearly, find himself, and not drown himself. With good education and self-awareness of Chinese painting art, he had an accurate understanding and grasp of master Baishi and China's Chinese painting art, and made another big step forward on the road of developing Chinese painting civilian art along the direction of master Baishi's efforts before his death.

20 15, "Mo Yun Mid-Autumn Festival-Lou Shibai Ten Disciples Exhibition" opened in Hanyuan Hall of the Summer Palace. The exhibition is sponsored by Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture, Beijing Federation of Literary and Art Circles and Beijing Park Management Center, and jointly undertaken by Beijing Cultural Development Foundation and Beijing Summer Palace Management Office. Lou Shibai is a disciple of Qi Baishi. The ten artists participating in the exhibition include Li Zhuqi, Liu Zhongxin, Liu Wansheng, Liu Cunhui, Zhang Dahua, Shao Jingming, Jia Minying, Liu Xiaogang, Su Haihe and Chen Jianhui.
Wang Mi (alias: Wang Mi 'er), female, was born in 1984, originally from Anhui, and now lives in Beijing. Member of China Artists Association, member of China International Painting and Calligraphy Art Research Institute, studying under China contemporary painters Lou Shibai and Zhang Ding. He is good at Qi School ink painting, inherits the artistic techniques of Qi Baishi and Lou Shibai, and makes innovations on the basis of Chinese painting, giving people a feeling of vigor and vitality. The painting combines the techniques of Lou Shibai and Zhang Ding, relying on the traditional brushwork, blending the western painting style, absorbing the nutrients of folk art, with beautiful brushwork, meticulous composition, ethereal and healthy brushwork, rich connotation, simple and innovative style and unique style;
Wang Mi's works are not only good at flowers, feathers, grass insects and ink shrimp, but also have their own characteristics in figure landscape painting, so she can be called a female painter with outstanding attainments in many aspects. Her works show the advantages of thick and thin brushwork, fresh artistic conception, fresh but not bright, elegant but not vulgar, natural imitation and outstanding texture.

According to the theory of inheritance, his master Qi Baishi is a master of Chinese painting and a people's artist known to all women and children. He opened up a good road for the younger generation. He convinced the students that Master Qi Baishi was not far away, and even let them see the shadow of the old man clearly. On this road, Mr. Wang unremittingly explored and carried forward the painting skills of Qi School, with no regrets. Wang Mi, a famous contemporary female painter, said gratefully: In the Chronicle of Lou Shibai Art compiled by Lou Shude, the son of Mr. Lou Shibai, first of all, Lou Shibai greatly expanded his painting theme, which was more diverse than that of the old man Baishi. In the preface published by Mr. Wang's Painting Collection, I wrote the following words: "Although I am over eighty years old, I dare not talk about teenagers, but I still have the idea of fighting hard. I insist on inheriting the spirit of Mr. Qi Baishi's' reform in his twilight years', constantly exploring new themes and styles with the flavor of the times, and taking Chinese painting innovation as a great pleasure." That's what he said and did. Perhaps because of the times, the theme of Lou Shibai's paintings really surpassed the Baishi era. It is precisely because of the convenience of the times and transportation that Lou Shibai not only traveled all over the country, but also went abroad for more than a dozen times to spread local culture and Qi Baishi's painting art. Wherever he went, he left deep artistic traces. This is also incomparable in the Baishi era. As we all know, China art has never played a positive role like today.
Along the way, Lou Shibai sang praises to our motherland and people with the pen in his hand, expressing his deep affection for the motherland and people. Therefore, his paintings are clear, fresh and concise, giving people a sense of vitality. It has distinctive national characteristics. Therefore, his paintings are also positive, healthy, optimistic and beautiful. This is the secret of a husband's longevity. He constantly participated in social activities, actively participated in social welfare undertakings, and devoted himself to the cause of painting and calligraphy in China, making contributions to the inheritance and development of fine arts in China.

Lou Shibai is an artist who has a comprehensive accomplishment in poetry, calligraphy, painting and printing. His paintings have reached the realm of both form and spirit, blending scenes, concise pen and ink, and the old pen is vertical and horizontal, which has brought ink and wash kung fu to the extreme. Form a straightforward and simple printing style. "People who learn from me are born like me." "It is better to draw between the likeness and the dissimilarity, too kitsch, not like deceiving the world." Lou Shibai won the artistic essence of the old man Baishi, and kept in mind the teacher's teachings. On the basis of Baishi art, Xu Wei, Zhu Da, Yangzhou Eight Eccentrics, Wu Changshuo, Chen Shiceng, etc. are all profound traditional cultural skills of his freehand flower-and-bird painting ... On the basis of literati painting, he widely absorbed folk art traditions and injected vitality into China flower-and-bird painting.
Lou Shibai finally became a big tree next to it, bearing many fruits. Lou Shibai seems to have provided us with many beneficial inspirations in the teaching methods of Chinese painting, the inheritance and development of Chinese painting art, the ideological and social nature of art, and the spring education of Wang Mi, a disciple who entered the room. Today, we saw Qi Baishi's shrimp, Xu Beihong's horse, Li Keran's cow and Huangzhou's donkey. We were happy to see Lou Shibai's duckling. Of course, this is just the "unique skill" of the master of art. It is this little "unique skill" that in turn becomes an artistic symbol representing the master. I believe this lively, lovely and exciting duckling was not acquired by accident.

Among Qi Baishi's disciples, Lou Shibai should be the youngest when he was a teacher. 1932 When Ren Shensui was appointed, Lou Shibai's father Lou Demei met Qi Baishi in Xiangshan, and became friends through the friendship of fellow villagers.
Lou Shibai 14 years old that year. He often helps his elders go to Qi Baishi's house to do some things, and has the opportunity to watch Qi Baishi draw. Two years later, Qi Baishi once went to Lou's house and was very happy to see more than a dozen sectors of the painting. He said, "You children are very brave, dare to draw, and your pen and ink are very similar to mine. I am willing to accept him as an apprentice and teach him well. How about our two families teaching by changing children? The day before beginning of autumn that year, Lou Shibai paid a visit to the old man Baishi. Lou Shibai stayed with her teacher for the next 27 years. Qi Baishi teaches students by guiding copying. Over the past few years, young Lou Shibai has made great progress in painting, and copying the teacher's works can be confusing. Once the painting shop of Liulichang came to pick up Qi Baishi's paintings, but Qi had not painted them yet. People saw Lou Shibai's works on the side table and thought they were painted by Qi Baishi, so they must take two. Afterwards, Qi Baishi wrote an inscription for one of the frogs and reeds: "Having fewer brothers can confuse my truth, but I can't cheat. My disciple is also a gentleman. " Qi Baishi thinks that "Lou Sheng has no ambition, and his human nature is similar. He likes to study without competing with others and interacting with others", and shows a father-son complex that transcends the relationship between teachers and students: "Why is Lou Jun's son like me and an ant? "He regards Lou Shibai as his adopted son.
From 65438 to 0936, Qi Baishi went to Sichuan for five months, entrusted Lou Shibai to take care of his home in Beijing, and took his place in Beiping Art College. Lou Shibai was originally named Shao Huai, and Shao Huai and Baishi were also named by teachers. Lou Shibai once talked about this process in an article: "When the teacher engraved my seal, he changed Shao Huai's" Shao "to" Shao ". He said,' Old people are safe, friends believe, and young people are pregnant'. The word' less' is better than the word' less'. After carving the famous seal, the teacher carved the number for me again. He said,' The name feast is too vulgar. You learn to draw like me. If you change it later, it will become everyone. He will be successful in the future, so don't forget the teacher. I will change your number to Baishi! "The Analects of Confucius Gongye Chang" comes from the language of "few people are pregnant with it" and tells the story of Confucius and his student Yan Yuan. Lutz asked the teacher to talk about his ambition, so Confucius said those words. "Notes on the Analects of Confucius" explains: "Huai: Ye Gui. Said that I hope that the elderly will be safe and do their filial piety; If a friend believes, he will not be bullied; Few people returned, and they gave it a favor. "

Lou Shibai's Chinese Painting
Lou Shibai's Chinese Painting
Lou Shibai is a famous painter of the older generation. In the past, there was a saying in society to evaluate artists' artistic achievements: Qi Baishi's shrimp, Xu Beihong's horse, Li Keran's cow, Huangzhou's donkey and Lou Shibai's duckling. These are the unique skills of the predecessors in the painting world. The duckling in Lou Shibai is a lifelike elf, cute and exciting. However, this is only a small aspect of Mr. Lou's artistic exploration. As a disciple of Baishi, he plays an important role in the field of freehand brushwork of flowers and birds and is highly respected.
Lou Shibai, who is now nearly ninety years old, is still healthy, smiling, Buddha-faced, with gray eyebrows and a few super-long eyebrows that echo her hair. As a disciple who followed Qi Baishi for half his life, Mr. Lou spared no effort to study, study and spread Baishi's painting art all his life. Based on the Art Research Association, he recruited young painters as apprentices, devoted himself to the inheritance and development of China's painting and calligraphy, promoted his later research, and devoted himself to the inheritance of Qi School art, which was highly praised. Wang Mi, a female disciple of Lou Shibai and a famous contemporary female painter, is grateful for the teacher's practice:
A few days ago, the Collection of Lou Shibai's Works published by People's Fine Arts Publishing House officially met with readers. Among them, it is the largest work so far-the 10 meter long scroll "Spring Man" made up of six pieces of rice paper in the 1980s. Lou Shibai hopes that when he is 90 years old, he can hold a retrospective exhibition of these works in China Art Museum.
Lou Shibai was greatly influenced by Qi Baishi in painting art, and he inherited the essence of Xu Wei, Zhu Da, Yangzhou Eight Eccentrics, Wu Changshuo and Chen Shiceng in freehand flower-and-bird painting. Have a profound knowledge of traditional culture. He specializes in flowers and birds, and his pen is full of ink. The works are full of ink and wash, full of the vibrant breath of nature. The landscape composition is unique, unconventional and creative. He has profound attainments in painting, calligraphy and seal cutting, and created his own unique artistic style. His paintings can give people a clear, fresh, concise and energetic feeling, with distinctive national characteristics, reaching the realm of both form and spirit and blending scenes. His pen and ink are concise and sophisticated, and his ink and wash skills are brought into full play. His painting art expresses his deep feelings for the motherland. This is completely different from the creation of ancient literati paintings, passive and detached from the world. His works are full of health, joy, harmony, stubbornness, self-sufficiency and exuberant vitality. As a master of Chinese painting rooted in tradition and imitating nature, he deeply understands Qi Baishi's theory that "painting is better between similarity and dissimilarity, and it is too kitsch to deceive the world". His paintings are based on literati paintings, absorbing folk art traditions and injecting vitality into flower-and-bird paintings.
Seal cutting is also an indispensable part of Mr. Lou's artistic exploration. His seal cutting is the same as painting calligraphy. Inspired by Qi Baishi, he changed the seal script with a round pen to Fang Bi. Inspired by the "Tianfa Monument", the bold single-knife engraving method was formed, and also inspired by the quantity, imperial edict, multi-character official seals of Han, general print and Wei and Jin ethnic minorities, forming a vertical and horizontal printing style.
Shao Dazhen, a famous art critic, said, "Lou Shibai is good at painting flowers, birds and melons. He spared no effort to study and spread Qi Baishi's painting art all his life. It can be said that he is the most outstanding of Qi Baishi's disciples. Although he followed Qi Baishi's style, he added his own observation and experience of life, which can be said to be innovative while inheriting the essence. "
