- More about The Dao in Chinese Calligraphy: Theories, Practices, and Perspectives
This book explores the profound connection between traditional Chinese calligraphy and its philosophical roots. In a world where innovation often overshadows tradition, this book serves as a crucial reminder of the value and significance of ancient practices that have shaped the art form for centuries. The author embarks on an investigative journey to rediscover the ancient techniques employed by the revered calligrapher Wang Xizhi, which have been lost for nearly 700 years. Through rigorous experimentation, she reveals that true calligraphy must adhere to these traditional methods; otherwise, it becomes mere painting. She emphasized that any departure from Wang Xizhi’s methods undermines the essence of calligraphy itself.
By reframing the discourse around calligraphy, the author invites readers to appreciate the depth of the traditional approach.
