Calligraphie chinoise

Calligraphie chinoise

72,30 € / $93.99


Just published, this might be the definitive study on the subject, as the author started working on it more than thirty years ago and has spent time practicing calligraphy, digging into Chinese archives, visiting the last Four Treasures workshops. He also met the remaining important calligraphers and, above all, specialists of the Chinese cosmogony and philosophy, which explains the essence or calligraphy better than aesthetics.

A magnificent book by Imprimerie nationale Editions, the best publisher of beautiful books in France. Here is the French description:

L'ouvrage définitif sur le sujet car il est basé sur une pratique et une exploration de terrain (bibliothèques et ateliers des artistes) pendant plus de trente ans par M. Polastron. Ce magnifique livre analyse les techniques et les sens cachés du geste ancestral ; on y trouve les clefs philosophiques et l'art de l'écriture au pinceau, vieux de 2 000 ans, ainsi que les notices biographiques des curieuses 108 personnalités qui l'ont le mieux illustré et fait progresser. Somptueuses image, dont beaucoup d'inédits, accompagnées (c'est très rare !) d'explications fouillées. Très bel ouvrage de l'Imprimerie nationale sur papier permanent, relié pleine toile rouge, titres embossés, jaquette en quadrichromie illustrée de l'admirable "Ivresse" par Ouyang Jiaojia, exposé dans notre galerie en 1997, pelliculée mat

Le Trésor des Lettrés

Le Trésor des Lettrés

56,90 € / $73.97


The Chinese Scholar's Treasures, as no other book - Western or Chinese - dare exploring the subject: history, handicraft, way of using them and, furthermore, philosophical content, show why these very plain tools are more than treasures. Text in French. Almost all pictures unseen yet. Here is the French description:

Encre, pierre, pinceau, papier forment le coeur de l'écriture, de la calligraphie et de la peinture en Chine et au Japon. Pour la première fois, un gros livre basé sur une enquête de trente ans en narre l'histoire complète et décrit les processus de fabrication secrets, toujours en vigueur (pour l'instant). C'est aussi l'histoire des collections impériales et privées, en même temps que sont examinées les ventes aux enchères et la cote de ces trésors aujourd'hui.
Très bel ouvrage de l'Imprimerie nationale sur papier permanent, relié pleine toile rouge, titres dorés à l'or fin, jaquette en quadrichromie illustrée d'un gros plan sur un bâton d'encre, pages de garde reproduisant un papier Xuan "rides d'eau"
