Preface
Large‑character calligraphy is an art form brimming with power within Chinese calligraphy. These outstanding large‑character works by Wang Lianghu feature grand and vigorous brushwork, reflecting his profound accomplishment nurtured by decades of devotion to the art of writing. A Promising Future, Gain and Loss, Chinese Dream and Vitality of Spirit are well‑known auspicious phrases, integrating ideological connotations with artistic charm of brush and ink.
His bold strokes show clear lifting‑and‑pressing techniques, with vigorous lines and rich variations between dry and moist ink. Solid brush touches are paired with unrestrained endings. The well‑proportioned characters are open‑minded and magnificent, combining the robust strength of stele calligraphy with the fluid rhythm of cursive script. Forceful yet unrushed, firm yet gentle, the works avoid the stiffness common in large‑character writing.
Each piece conveys its own theme. Vitality of Spirit inspires uplifting spirit; Gain and Loss reflects philosophy of life; Chinese Dream embodies devotion to the nation; A Promising Future carries fine wishes. Rooted in traditional rules yet echoing modern spiritual pursuits, these works harmonize main texts, inscriptions and seals perfectly.
Reading these pieces, viewers are struck by the visual impact of large‑character calligraphy, while appreciating the virtue‑oriented spirit behind the texts and the unique charm of this traditional national art.
