Shantou painter Li Kejia

Li Kejia, a 70-year-old calligrapher, lives in Xifeng Village, Xilu Town, Chaoyang District. For decades, Li Kejia has been enthusiastic about protecting cultural relics and promoting local culture. Li Kejia was born in a calligraphy family, and his father Li Zizhi was a famous calligrapher in Chaoshan in modern times. His works are very popular in eastern Guangdong, and the only remaining calligraphy "Yulan Shenghuilian" and "Fengshan Literature Record" have been highly praised by Tian Yingzhang, a famous regular script writer in China. Kejia inherited his family studies as easily as blowing off dust, and his skills are increasing day by day. In his prime, his calligraphy reached perfection. So his hometown, even Shantou, Guangzhou, Dongguan, Zhuhai, Shenzhen and even peace county, a mountainous area, came here to ask him to write calligraphy and plaques. His works have been selected for many exhibitions in cities, provinces and countries, won many gold and silver awards, and have been collected by Chaoshan historical and cultural center, provinces and countries. Zhujiang TV once filmed his deeds. Li Kejia has a successful career, enthusiastically serving mulberry trees and society and promoting local culture. He has a kind heart. No matter rich or poor, he always splashes ink when asked to write. It is often thought that "a single flower is not spring, and a hundred flowers are always spring", and the next generation is carefully cultivated. Xifeng Village, my hometown, was founded by Li Yongjie, a villager from Dongguan. Since 2000, seven Spring Festival calligraphy and painting exhibitions have been held. Ke Jia not only sends his works to the exhibition every year, but also spends a lot of time compiling manuscripts, organizing mounting and decorating the exhibition hall of calligraphy and painting, which makes the villagers' holiday cultural life colorful. In order to let elegant painting and calligraphy art enter people's homes, he advocated and presided over painting and calligraphy training classes. He and his peers in the village made great efforts to improve their skills and compiled Selected Paintings and Calligraphy of Xifeng (the first episode), which is rare in all villages in the province. Subsequently, Li Kejia's Calligraphy Collection was published, which had a far-reaching impact. Xifeng Village, where Li Kejia lived, was founded in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. There were two scholars in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with a total of more than/kloc-0. For more than 600 years, this village has a profound cultural heritage. Li Kejia and several old people carefully protected the cliff ruins, Chen Dao Yansheng, and many ancient buildings in the village, which were carved on the boulder on Fengshan in the Yuan Dynasty. There are many cultural relics handed down from ancient times in the village, including the gold lacquer birthday screen of Li Furen, a scholar in the village during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, who was 7 1 year old. On the one hand, it depicts her permanent residence, and the characters are lifelike; On the one hand, it is a birthday essay written by Liu Yong, a bachelor of cabinet. Li Kejia invited experts to evaluate the national first-class and second-class cultural relics and called for serious and proper protection. In the ancestral temple of Ke Cheng in the village, there is a gold lacquer screen inscribed by Hanlin for Mrs. Li Kecheng's 7 1 year-old birthday in the light years of Qing Dynasty. Originally scattered and preserved, it was found to be seriously damaged after collection in recent years. It was Li Kejia who invited craftsmen to repair it creatively. Li Kejia also searched in many ways and obtained the manuscript of Fengshan Documentary, which included more than 80 poems of 100 by rural sages in Ming and Qing Dynasties. This is a precious local cultural work. It turns out that many martyrs were sacrificed in the village during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period. Li Kejia and the old people collected and sorted out the glorious history and fame of the martyrs in that year, which provided a rare teaching material for patriotism education. The eighth in the village (Yu) is one of the four rural sages enshrined in the Xiangxian Temple in Chaozhou in the Qing Dynasty. His tomb was built on the hill of Liangying Town in the south of Chaozhou, for Mr. Feng Shui of Shaanxi, a northern school. It has great research value. Li Kejia ran around in many ways, raised repair funds, collated information and applied to the cultural relics management department in Chaonan District for protection. At the end of last year, it was approved as a town-level cultural relics protection unit. Recently, Li Kejia often makes suggestions for the cultural construction in the village.
