Master Yun created two “firsts” on the Great Wall of China. In December 2020, amidst the global pandemic's gloom, Master Yun held a unique art exhibition on this ancient world wonder, marking the first-ever painting exhibition on the Great Wall. Three years later, on 19 October 2023, with autumn in full swing, Master Yun once again met the world on the Simatai section of the Great Wall, this time with a calligraphy art form, marking another “first” – the first calligraphy exhibition in the 3500-year history of the Great Wall.
During the opening ceremony of the fengshui calligraphy exhibition, Master Yun, in his speech, used the profundity of Chinese characters as a starting point to explore the fundamental differences between calligraphy and painting. The pictographic nature of Chinese characters endows calligraphy with a deeper meaning. It is not only a visual art but also a representation of time-based art. Calligraphy works must be created in sequence and appreciated in a certain order, much like an irreversible performance.
In Master Yun's eyes, “the first time” is not just a moment; it represents innovation and creativity, the inheritance and rejuvenation of history. Holding an art exhibition on the Great Wall, an ancient military defence structure, Master Yun advocates for a cultural revival, infusing this “Yellow Dragon” with new vitality and transforming it into a bridge for global artistic and cultural exchange.
At Master Yun's calligraphy exhibition, all 69 works featured the characters for dragon and phoenix, not just for their symbolic meanings in fengshui. In Master Yun's view, the dragon and the phoenix represent extraordinary human spirit – the pursuit of excellence, courage, strength, great benevolence and love. Under his brush, the dragon and phoenix are not just mythical creatures in Chinese culture but symbols of leadership and hope.
It is this spirit of the dragon and phoenix that ensures that no matter how deep the night, no threat or destruction can bring us down. The light of hope and the joy of victory will repeatedly dispel the darkness and usher in the light, guided by the dragon and phoenix.
In Master Yun's blessings, we not only feel an artist's wishes for a beautiful life but also a powerful force – the positive energy of heaven, earth, and humanity, and the inner strength of the dragon and phoenix. With his art and wisdom, Master Yun continues the cultural legend on the Great Wall, a land that has witnessed history.
And when Master Yun concluded his speech with 'À votre santé' (a toast in French), it was undoubtedly a toast to all fellow pursuers of art, culture, and excellence – a toast to victory.
