Abstract: BaShu is located in a basin and surrounded by high mountains all round, which hinders its connection to other areas. But BaShu ancestors were not reconciled to this and cut out paths to break through the bonds of environment. So BaShu culture is branded as open and innovation. LAI Zhide, a scholar in late Ming dynasty, didn’t surrender to authority or tradition and ventured some aesthetic opinions, which was influenced by BaShu culture. In other words, the spirit of BaShu culture is manifested by the aesthetics of LAI Zhide.

Key words: BaShu culture, aesthetic spirit, image, Ge Wu, relationship between writing and Tao
