“韵”是中国古代美学体系中独特的审美范畴,“韵”作为审美范畴,从音乐、文学领域到人物品评再到艺术审美标准,其内涵伴随着时代的变迁而一直被拓宽。“韵”在书法审美范畴中代表了作品的内在精神、气质和风度,书法之“韵”有气韵、墨韵、神韵、情韵、格韵、体韵等,超越了笔墨和具象化的表达,赋予书法作品更加丰富的审美内涵。因此,对于“韵”范畴的探索仍然对当今书法审美范畴有重要启示。

“Yun”is a unique aesthetic category in ancient Chinese aesthetic system.The connotation of“Yun”,which is an aesthetic category,has been continuously expanded along with the changing times,ranging from music,literature field and character evaluation to artistic aesthetic criterion.“Yun”represents the inner spirit,temperament and grace of the works in the aesthetic category of calligraphy.The“Yun”of calligraphy,including spirit Yun,ink Yun,spirit Yun,affection Yun,pattern Yun and style Yun,transcends the figurative expression of pen and ink,endowing calligraphy works with richer aesthetic connotation.Therefore,the exploration on the category of“Yun”still plays an inspirational role in studying the aesthetic category of calligraphy today.
