米芾[1](1051年-1107年[2]),北宋书画家。初名黻[3],字元章,时人号襄阳漫士、海岳外史,自号鹿门居士。
米芾原籍襄阳(今属湖北),后定居润州(今江苏镇江)。因其衣着行为以及迷恋书画珍石的态度皆被当世视为癫狂,故又有“米颠”之称。米芾于砚,素有研究,宋·何蘧《春渚纪闻》记载宋徽宗召米芾写字,米芾看到皇帝桌上有名砚,米芾一写完字,就抱上砚台跪请曰:“此砚经臣濡染,不可复以进御,取进止。”让皇帝把砚台赐给他,皇帝答应他,便急着把砚台抱回,连衣服都染黑了。《志林》记米芾得一砚山而抱眠三日。著有《砚史》一书。是北宋著名书法家、鉴定家、画家、收藏家。
他的儿子米友仁也是一代书法名家,米芾甚至觉得右军(王羲之)不如其子。
米芾为著名书画家和文物鉴赏家,与苏轼、黄庭坚、蔡襄并称宋代四大家,他擅长楷、行、草、蒃、隶等多种字体,尤以行草最为著名。
《雪堂书评》中评论米芾的书法特点为:“风樯阵马,沉着痛快”。

Mi Fu (Chinese: 米黻; pinyin: Mǐ Fú, 1051–1107)[1], also known as Mi Fei (米芾), was a Chinese painter, poet, and calligrapher born in Taiyuan, Shanxi during the Song Dynasty. In painting he gained renown for his style of painting misty landscapes. This style would be deemed the "Mi Fu" style and involved the use of large wet dots of ink applied with a flat brush. His poetry followed the style of Li Bai and his calligraphy that of Wang Xizhi. His uninhibited style made him disliked at the Song court.
He is best known for his calligraphy, and he was regarded as one of the four greatest calligraphers in Song Dynasty. His style arises from that of calligraphers in earlier dynasties, but with a unique mark of his own.
As a personality Mi Fu was noted as an eccentric. At times they even deemed him "Madman Mi" because he was obsessed with collecting stones and even declared one stone to be his brother. Hence he would bow to his "brother" rock in a display of the filial devotion given to older brothers. He also was known as a heavy drinker. His son, Mi Youren, would also be a famous painter in his father’s artistic style. Unlike his father Mi Youren lived to be quite elderly, dying at the age of 79.
