Fudan University opens major retrospective devoted to scholar-calligrapher Wang Quchang

More than 100 artworks, manuscripts, letters and personal documents — some on public display for the first time — unfold across four chapters. Together they reveal a rich, multifaceted character through four roles: scholar, poet, patriot, and calligrapher. Highlights include the eight hanging scrolls of "Song of Righteousness" (Zhengqi Ge), the poem by Song-dynasty (960-1279) loyalist Wen Tianxiang (1236-1283), which Wang wrote in 1987, and the album of his 1982 preface to Ma Guoquan's Zhangcao Dictionary.
