Calligraphy exhibition comes to Shanghai

The exhibits were arranged following the path of Zhao Lengyue's creative evolution, reflecting his superb techniques in different styles of traditional calligraphy: seal script, clerical script, cursive script and running script.

"My father used to travel around China, and marveled at the beauty of inscriptions on steles and cliffs," said Zhao Shizhong, the younger son of Zhao Lengyue. "He was so overwhelmed by the calligraphy inscriptions left by the ancient people, and was inspired to create a form of calligraphy himself."
