| Popis: | 103 Chen Yun-Cheng (1906-2009) witnessed the history of Taiwan from Japanese colonial rule to after Taiwan Retrocession, when the Nationalist Government relocated to Taiwan. He was also a prominent Taiwanese calligrapher during that time. Different political systems and cultures expanded his perspective of diverse cultures, and he was more able to accept different cultures, which became manifest in his calligraphy. He was also more able to extract and use elements of different cultures and traditions. He digested and integrated calligraphy styles from different periods and developed a unique individual style; Chen Yun-Cheng is a melting pot of Chinese, Japanese and Taiwanese calligraphy styles, and a witness and practitioner of Taiwan’s calligraphy history.
