"Without aesthetics, the world has nothing to do with you" Aesthetics is a part of the quality of life; aesthetics must first "appraise" and then "beauty"; without aesthetics, the world has nothing to do with you. In this book, we will follow the footsteps of Mr. Fu Baoshi, appreciate the majesty of the motherland's mountains and rivers through the master's words and paintings, understand the history and inheritance of Chinese traditional painting art, and sublimate our own aesthetics. The book "Aesthetics is a Lifelong Practice" is divided into two parts: the first part is a selection of Xu Beihong's art and aesthetic thoughts, which are texts about artistic creation and artistic perception; the second part is Xu Beihong's autobiography of his life, recording the author's artistic growth. Read the aesthetic thoughts of the master from his words, enjoy the influence of art, improve your aesthetic ability, and regard aesthetics as our lifelong practice.
