Calligraphy performance has become a "strange phenomenon" in the current calligraphy world, especially "shooting calligraphy" and "ugly calligraphy in bamboo forest", which make many readers confused. Some people even curse Zhu Yunming. Many people call Zhu Yunming the "originator of ugly calligraphy" because his cursive calligraphy is simply written randomly. The cursive calligraphy that was "shot" has made many celebrities in history "shot", such as Huaisu, Zhang Xu, Fu Shan, Xu Wei, Zhu Yunming, etc. Zhu Yunming, as one of the four great talents, has never offended anyone. How come so many people regard his calligraphy as ugly calligraphy? At the same time, there were also many famous calligraphers at that time who highly praised Zhu Yunming. For example, Wu Changshuo said that Zhu Yunming's cursive calligraphy can be said to be a "divine product". Two completely different views, which one do you agree with?

Zhu Yunming, born in Taiyuan, Shanxi, was famous for his talent and was called "one of the four great talent", but his calligraphy was criticized the most, especially his cursive script, which was so crazy that ordinary people could not see clearly what he wrote. Perhaps this was the main reason for his criticism, but Wu Changshuo said, "Zhu Zhishan's calligraphy is indeed a remarkable thing. When I read it in the middle of spring of 1895, my eyes could see it clearly." In particular, the book "Four Poems by Cao Zhi" was praised as "the pinnacle of calligraphy" and some said it was "the ugliest in history". Peking University professor and calligrapher Li Zhimin said that he "has deeply grasped the essence of Song Dynasty calligraphy and formed his own school."

As we all know, in ancient times, calligraphy was still a niche art, because everyone was working hard for a living, and there were very few scholars. Therefore, the study of calligraphy has always been in a state of confusion, or a hazy state. Now, with the popularization of calligraphy art, it has become more and more popular among the public. Because of their professional level, their understanding of calligraphy is different. Many people have different understandings of cursive script. When they see such ink marks, they will attribute it to "ugly writing", which is also a narrow-minded cognition.

Perhaps because everyone doesn’t understand Zhu Yunming’s cursive script, many people are scolding Zhu Yunming, saying that his cursive script is ugly. In fact, this is a wrong interpretation. What do you think?
