书法是中国特有的一门传统艺术,是其传统文化的代表,凝结着中国独特的审美意识和生生不息的文化精神。林语堂先生在《吾土吾民》中写道:“书法提供了中国人以基本的美学原理”。所以,学习书法是了解中国文化和审美最为便捷的途径。书法与其他艺术门类有很多互通之处,它可以将诗歌的韵律与情感、绘画的图式与意境、音乐和舞蹈的节奏与旋律等融于笔墨之间。在书法中我们可以看到整肃与飘逸,对比与和谐,情感与理智,法则与自由。无论是追求古典的、浪漫的、唯美的、奔放的审美取向,都可以在其中找到相应的表达方式。本课程注重中国书法的基础技法练习,并结合书法史的相关内容,以期加深学生对书法艺术和中国文化的理解,构建起从理论到实践的科学认知。
