The narrative of art is the romance of pen and the memory of art, which is written on paper, carved with a knife and between square inches, reappearing another life, breaking through the limitations of time and space and region, so that every viewer can gather in the beautiful world, and Mao Bangquan is the most creative soul in countless art universes.
Born in a scholarly family, Mao Bangquan's mother, who made tea, impressed him with a clear and unique atmosphere. He grew up in beautiful scenery and showed great artistic talent in painting very early. From simple imitation to simple sketching, little Mao Bangquan used paper and pencil to describe the free-flying world in his heart, and his talent quickly attracted the attention of his mother Zhao Zixiu. She was surprised that her son's pen was full of it.
At the first stop on the road of painting art, Mao Bangquan was attracted by the intricate Chinese paintings with ink and wash. With a passion and perseverance, young children always insisted on the teacher's instructions, "Painting every day, thinking every day, and being refined every day." The artistic world in his works has also begun to take shape. At the age of 12, Mao Bangquan held his own exhibition of Chinese painting exercises. A pair of ink painting "Banana and Sparrow" vividly fixed the innocence of the birds under the tree with clever and delicate brushstrokes and interesting lines, which is quite a bit of an antique demeanor of "the bright moon surprises the magpie".
With the growth of age, Mao Bangquan's experience and painting skills are constantly deepening. At this time, he is not satisfied with a single world. He wants to understand the essence with his brush, to be free and to constantly surpass himself ... Young, he can get it, do it, and his brush falls.
While studying in Guangmei High School, Mao Bangquan has been thinking about how to combine the unique poetic beauty of China's art with abstract paintings. Learn from the ancients to use images and leave blank spaces, so as to achieve the realm of "similarity and dissimilarity", and also learn from the reality and three-dimensional with western artists to achieve the aesthetic feeling of "millisecond subtlety". Therefore, he crossed the boundary between culture and times, and focused on the outline of lines and the expression of geometric shapes, making his works an abstract visual embodiment.
This is Mao Bangquan's artistic work "Boring Life". He used Gou Xianbi, watercolor and cardboard to describe the current situation of youth in Huangbian Village.
The mechanical, numb and repetitive labor is shown by Mao Bangquan in the form of lines and minimalism. The cold high gray and the white image make up the whole picture, and the geometric description of things as shown in the figure is an implicit and expressive way with extensiveness and imagination, not to mention the accuracy of modeling. A few strokes alone are enough to outline the emotions, and the narrative embodiment of the whole article benefits from this, which is also Mao Bangquan's skill. Resolutely decided to develop his talent and send his son to worship as a disciple.
For now, Mao Bangquan's success seems to lie in his talent, but it is not an easy task for a large number of talented people to cross the gap of art schools and realize artistic re-creation. Since he set foot on the road of art, Mao Bangquan has lost a lot: having fun, being free, frolicking, and even socializing to a certain extent all need to give way to painting. He often sits in front of the canvas all day thinking hard, and often goes to various places with a brush and notepad on his back to collect scenery, drawing broken pens, worn hands, colorful canvases and color palettes ... His every step is steadfast and looking up.
Lin Yutang once said: "In works of art, the most meaningful part is personality other than skill." It is appropriate to describe Mao Bangquan. His paintings are extremely simple, giving up pride and skill. With extremely restrained and sincere sharp lines, he constructs his ideal order, listens to the echo of everything, gallops his ideals, transcends sensibility, and carefully grasps the surging emotions and changing rhythms. Mao Bangquan described himself as a "guy who remembered painting without a pen". The young soul is so passionate and gorgeous that he uses dreams as a pen and his heart as an art. His soul is his unique brush. (Luan Xinqiu)
