How to write Spring Festival couplets in a high style

Let’s listen to the experiences of famous experts

Han Shaohui talks about the creation of couplets

First, pay attention to the choice of font. Relatively speaking, seal script, official script and Wei stele with a slightly official meaning are more suitable for couplets.The creation of couplet calligraphy is determined by the visual tension between the form of the couplet and the written content.

Second, pay attention to the choice of writing content. In the traditional and simplified characters and the vertical and horizontal characters, try to form a \”level and oblique\” relationship, and the work will have a sense of rhythm.

Third, the width of the paper should be determined according to the creative intention. The large characters on narrow paper are close to the edge of the paper, so the work is the most tense; on the contrary, the small characters on wide paper give the work a gentle, gentle and non-exciting attitude. All these require the calligraphy author to decide based on the artistic conception of the writing content and the state of mind at the time of creation.

Fourth, we must strengthen the integrity of the upper and lower couplets. The most common form of couplets is that each word is independent, and it is also easiest to write a couplet in which each word is independent and has no connection, just like an operator\’s arrangement. Therefore, when creating, Be sure to pay attention to the contrast between up, down, left and right In terms of handling the contradictory relationships such as character momentum, font shape, ink color, virtuality and reality, correctness, size, opening and closing, we must be confident and random, so that the couplets form an organic whole internally.

Bai Di talks about the creation of couplets

Couplet is a special form in calligraphy creation. First of all, its appearance must be vertical, divided into two parts, and most of them are narrow and long. This is why couplets are mostly hung or engraved on pillars. Secondly, the content must be a couplet. Most commonly used are five-character or seven-character pairs. Long pairs with single couplets and crosses are also used.

Due to its specific size limit, the following points must be paid attention to when creating couplet works: First, the fonts should be mainly in seal, official, and regular script that reflect solemnity. If running script or cursive script is used in the couplet, the characters will be in line with the There should not be too many connections between words. It seems rare to see couplets that are purely wild and wild. Second, the font size should be similar, but it should not be too rigid. Third, it is best to list the upper and lower paragraphs in the upper and lower lines. The upper paragraph is located on the right side of the upper line, in the upper middle, and the lower paragraph is on the left side of the second line. If the paragraph is missing, it can be placed in the slightly larger space of the second line. Under the main text of the upper and lower couplets.

Shao Peiying talks about the creation of couplets

Shao Peiying: What is commonly referred to as \”couple calligraphy\” now refers to calligraphy ink written in the form of couplets, excluding \”pillar couplets\” carved in wood and bamboo. When creating couplet calligraphy works, first of all, you must pay attention to whether the text content (couplet) is a couplet and whether it is standardized. Some text contents are poems rather than couplets, so you should pay attention when creating them and do not write them randomly to avoid misunderstanding by others. Secondly, we should pay attention to the creative form of couplets. Traditional calligraphy works of couplets are mostly two independent lines. Today, due to the need for a sense of formality in exhibitions, people like to write them in the form of \”couplets\” and turn them into strips. There are also some calligraphy writers who like to write \”inscriptions and postscripts\” on both sides of the upper and lower couplets. This is understandable in nature, but if the writing content is vulgar and makes reading like chewing wax, there is no need to do so.

Thirdly, the author should pay attention to the common practice of the \”internal skills\” of calligraphy and the \”external skills\” of couplets, which complement each other and bring out the best in each other. No matter how high the artistry of the work is, the phenomenon of writing wrong couplets, copying wrong couplets, and writing inverted couplets It should always be wrong. Wrong \”couple calligraphy\” works have appeared many times in national calligraphy exhibitions in the past ten years, but they have not attracted enough attention from the majority of calligraphy authors and calligraphy circles. Therefore, I think the creators of couplet calligraphy works should strengthen the basics of couplets. Knowledge learning and understanding

Before writing a couplet, you should understand the origin, background, and connotation of the couplet. The external form of the couplet calligraphy work must serve the theme and content of the couplet. The inside and outside cannot be disconnected, or at least cannot contradict.

Yang Jian talks about couplets Creation

Yang Jian : Couplets are neatly contrasted, harmonious and concise, and are a traditional cultural treasure of the Chinese nation. When creating calligraphy works of couplets, the content must meet the requirements of couplets. I usually see some couplet calligraphy, but in fact many of them do not meet the requirements of couplet calligraphy works. Some people simply believe that as long as two vertical calligraphy works with the same number of words are couplets, it is actually a big mistake to create poems and sentences that do not meet the requirements of couplets as couplets.

Couplets are pairs. As the name suggests, they are composed of upper and lower couplets. In order to be new and different, some peopleThe long couplets are written in the form of banners, which is strange. If the inherent traditional form is gone, is it still a couplet?
