While ancient documents maintain the classical relationship in which form is primarily in the service of content, contemporary artists investigate the <strong>communicative power of writing forms in themselves<\/strong>, even rejecting or renouncing semantic content altogether.<\/p>\n<p>Each of the six artists stands in a particular relationship to the calligraphy and handwriting of their country of origin, investigating what the forms convey as symbols, shapes in space, or signs and maintaining a relationship of cultural identification with their origins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-1916","mostra","type-mostra","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
