Modern Japanese Calligraphy

30 March 2023 - 9 January 2024

On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the calligraphy group Keiseikai in 2020, artists planned a memorial exhibition under the motto "Japanese calligraphers dedicated to Vienna", which had to be postponed due to Covid-19. The artists paid tribute to Austria’s and especially Vienna’s generous support in 2011, when eastern Japan was hit by a major earthquake that caused the nuclear disaster of Fukushima.

The exhibition was co-financed on the Japanese side by the daily newspaper Mainichi Shinbun and the Mainichi Calligraphy Society. It will feature 61 works of art that have already entered into the collection of Weltmuseum Wien. The exhibits represent various calligraphic forms of expression, such as the Chinese kanji characters, the kana syllabary, the poetic written form of shibunsho, the tenkoku stone seal stamps, or the carved kokuji symbols.
