Jiangxi General Calligraphy and Painting Academy

Introduction to Jiangxi General Calligraphy and Painting Academy:
Jiangxi General Calligraphy and Painting Academy was prepared at the end of 2009 and approved by the Jiangxi Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the Jiangxi Provincial Department of Civil Affairs as a non-profit cultural institution mainly engaged in the display and exchange of calligraphy and painting art. It was officially opened on April 25, 2010. Our academy is located in Building 1, Binjiang Haoyuan, Honggutan New District, Nanchang City (directly opposite the back gate of the Municipal Government), with an area of more than 1,300 square meters, equipped with a calligraphy and painting display area, office area, and leisure area. Jiangxi General Calligraphy and Painting Academy integrates calligraphy and painting research, creation, exhibition, exchange, and collection, forming the characteristics of a calligraphy and painting academy where calligraphy and painting culture and elegant art are mutually integrated and prosper together.
Our academy adheres to the purpose of carrying forward the spirit of revolutionary tradition, promoting red culture, excavating the essence of national culture, and educating the next generation, providing an environment for display, observation, exchange, and learning for old generals, famous painting academies, calligraphy masters, and friends who love calligraphy and painting from all over the country. As a red revolutionary base, Jiangxi, on this land of 166,900 square kilometers, has bred the cradle of the Chinese revolution - Jinggangshan, the cradle of the Republic - Ruijin, the place where the military flag was raised - Nanchang, the birthplace of the workers' movement - Anyuan, and so on. These red classic titles and place names have become a star shining with the sun and the moon in the magnificent historical river of the People's Republic of China, playing a vigorous and passionate brilliant movement in the majestic symphony of red China.
At the time of the establishment of our academy, it has received strong support from many old generals, old leaders, and famous calligraphers. Their works, on the basis of inheriting the characteristics of traditional art, pioneer and innovate, presenting an artistic state of a hundred flowers blooming, and also showing profound attainments and deep artistic skills, while also expressing the old generals and artists' passionate praise for the people's happy life.
Our academy has exhibited many masterpieces such as figure paintings, landscape paintings, flower-and-bird paintings, boundary paintings, and Buddhist paintings, with a wide variety and a hundred flowers competing in beauty. Landscape paintings mainly describe the natural scenery of mountains and rivers, flower-and-bird paintings mainly describe flowers, fruits, bamboo and stones, birds and beasts, insects and fish, boundary paintings take buildings such as palaces, houses, pavilions and terraces as themes, while Buddhist paintings are divided into two major categories: non-narrative and narrative. The calligraphy works of more than 200 generals displayed in our academy also present a great situation of each leading its own style and being rich and colorful. There are different styles and fonts: Song typeface, official script, regular script, running-regular script, Xuefeng style, Shu Tong style, variety show style, thick round style, seal script, running script, cursive script, colorful cloud style, etc. Being in it, people are immersed in the remembrance and deep thought of the generals' spirit of charging and sacrificing, and the life experience of the calligraphy and painting masters' brush-and-ink life and free and bold life.
In order to make the works of old generals and old artists already exhibited in our academy play a better role in publicity and education, our academy will hold various large-scale calligraphy and painting exhibitions, pen meetings, calligraphy and painting competitions, seminars, etc. from time to time, actively carry out calligraphy and painting research and exchange activities, and inherit and carry forward the spirit of the older generation of revolutionaries.
Our academy will take "promoting harmony through art, letting art serve the people, and carrying forward the culture of the Chinese nation and military camp culture" as its concept, promote the development of general calligraphy and painting art, promote the construction of socialist spiritual civilization, carry forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, and do its duty to build a socialist harmonious society. Looking to the future, we will carry forward the revolutionary traditional spirit of the revolutionary predecessors, work hard, and strive to enhance our academy's status and positive influence in the Chinese calligraphy and painting circle.
