Personal Profile
Shanghai calligrapher Gu Benjian, a student of teachers Gao Shixiong and Liu Xiaoqing, is currently the director of the Shanghai Badaitou Calligraphy and Painting Academy, the director of the Ningyun Han Calligraphy and Painting Art Museum, vice president of the Shanghai China-West Art Association, and a member of the Shanghai Calligraphers' Association. In 2011, he was awarded the title of "Outstanding Contemporary Artist" during the fourth Sino-Japanese Friendly Cultural and Artistic Exchange. In 2013, together with many calligraphers and painters, he created "The Soul of National Rejuvenation" for the Central Party School, and wrote the preface and postscript in running script. In 2015, he was invited by the Chen Yun Memorial to write the full text of the winning poetry and couplets for the 110th anniversary of Comrade Chen Yun's birth.
Gu Benjian's calligraphy is bold and free-spirited, with exquisite brushwork, where speed meets hesitation, sometimes elegant and sometimes refined, exuding a grand Tang Dynasty atmosphere. His running script flows like clouds and water, with rich flavor, and has its own unique style, while his regular script is dignified and elegant, with profound skill. His layout is natural amidst complexity, and fluid amidst variation, greatly adding interest to the structure of small regular script. Gu Benjian is also skilled in landscape and flower paintings, and his works are highly sought after by collectors at home and abroad.
Today, Gu Benjian's calligraphy skills have become increasingly mature. He has been awarded titles such as "Top 100 Citizens' Calligraphers in Shanghai," "Special Envoy for Sino-Japanese Cultural Exchange," "Most Popular Artist of the Year in the Shanghai-Zhejiang Area by Collectors," "Outstanding Contemporary Artist," and "Highest Achievement Award in Chinese Traditional Culture." At an auction in Hong Kong, a set of his works titled "Blessings of Wealth, Rank, and Longevity" was sold for a high price of 600,000 HKD, making him a standout in the industry.
Gu Benjian is enthusiastic about public welfare activities, devoting several decades of experience to the inheritance and promotion of Chinese traditional culture. He is a calligrapher of noble character and rich talent! 取消
