《国画家》刘建平先生:首先感谢贵刊对我们中国花鸟画九人探索交流展作品及评论的发表,也感谢许多观众及读者(包括网友)对我们作品的关注,不论褒贬都是对我们的鞭策。我们这个展览在北京展出后,经贵刊及其他报刊的评介,也产生一定的影响,先后应汕头、厦门、深圳、威海有关方面邀请在各地展出,反映热烈。此外还有几处地方邀请,拟安排前住展览,进行学术交流。看到董三白先生给刘建平先生2005年1月24日的信,我们除表示欢迎外,借此略述我们的观点作为讨论。我们的展览在厦门及以后的展出中已更名为新写意花鸟画展,参加人也略有变化。我们认为“写意”是中国画传统中最核心、最可宝贵的内容和精神实质,也是中国画能独立于世界艺术之林的价值所在。“写”是指书法用笔的抒情性、表现性,即 Mr. Liu Jianping, “Chinese Painter”: First of all, I would like to thank your magazine for the publication of the artworks and commentary on the exchange of our nine Chinese people’s flower and bird paintings. I am also grateful to many viewers and readers (including netizens) for their attention to our work, whether it is for us Spur After the exhibition in Beijing, our exhibition also exerted some influence through your magazine and other newspapers and periodicals. We invited some parties from Shantou, Xiamen, Shenzhen and Weihai to show them all over the world and expressed their warm opinions. In addition, there are several places to invite, plan to arrange exhibitions before, for academic exchanges. Seeing Mr. Dong Sanbai’s letter to Mr. Liu Jianping on January 24, 2005, we would like to outline our point of view as a discussion in addition to welcoming us. Our exhibition has changed its name to the New and Eloquent Flower and Bird Painting Exhibition in Xiamen and beyond, with a slight change in attendance. We think “freehand brushwork” is the core, the most precious content and the essence of spirit in the traditional Chinese painting. It is also the value of Chinese painting that can be independent of the world art. “Writing” refers to the lyrical, expressive, that is, the calligraphy pen
