LACMA Custom Prints

Special Exhibition

Line, Form, Qi: Calligraphic Art from the Fondation INK Collection

Regional groups of avant-garde modern and contemporary calligraphers have developed across East Asia from the mid-20th century to the present, many of whose works engage with or respond to Chinese characters. Spanning ink on paper, works on canvas, wood board pieces, and ceramics, the exhibition illuminates how their practices have influenced and informed one another, as well as connections between East Asian calligraphy and Western abstract art.
