Features: The Golden Ratio Practice Grid, which has recently obtained a national patent, is a new achievement in calligraphy teaching research developed by Li Zhongyuan, the Director of the Calligraphy Art Research Institute at Shenzhen University. This research is based on a comprehensive and in-depth study of traditional practice grids, combining the aesthetic principles of the Western art Golden Ratio with scientific coordinate principles. This achievement has overcome the academic challenge of explaining the proportional rules of Chinese character structural beauty, which traditional practice grids could not address. It holds significant importance for the reform of current calligraphy education and the popularization of calligraphy art in China. The Calligraphy Education Professional Committee of Hunan Higher Education Association commented: "The Golden Ratio Coordinate Grid clearly demonstrates the profound aesthetic principles of calligraphy, bringing about a profound transformation in the field of calligraphy education." This book adopts the important research achievement of the Golden Ratio Practice Method by Li Zhongyuan, the Director of the Calligraphy Institute at Shenzhen University, to scientifically analyze and interpret Wang Xizhi's Running Script "Shengjiao Xu" collected by Tang Dynasty scholars from the point, stroke, and structural aspects. It also includes a dedicated article on the key principles of the Golden Ratio Practice Method and model examples for guiding creative practice.
