張旭

江蘇蘇州 書法

字伯高、季明。生卒年不詳。唐代(618~907)書法家。吳郡(今江蘇蘇州)人。初任常熟尉,後官至金吾長史,故人稱「張長史」。灑脫不羈,卓爾不群,才華橫溢,生性好酒,往往大醉後揮筆書寫狂草,甚至以頭髮蘸墨書寫,故人稱「張顛」。
 其書法以草書成就最高,繼承王羲之和王獻之的傳統,字字有法,並創造出瀟灑不羈,變幻多端的狂草,其狀驚世駭俗,富有極強的藝術性,有草聖之譽。
 文宗(826~840在位)時,詔以李白歌詩、裴旻劍舞、張旭草書,並稱三絕。其後僧懷素繼承發展,有「顛張醉素」之稱。
 草書《古詩四帖》,傳其手書,藏遼寧瀋陽遼寧省博物館;碑刻《般若波羅蜜多心經》、《肚痛帖》、《千字文斷簡》,藏陝西西安碑林博物館;楷書作品唯存拓本《郎官石記》,藏上海博物館。
