Tong Yang Tze

Bol

As one of the most celebrated contemporary artists working exclusively in the art of writing, Tong Yang-Tze (b. 1942) pushes the boundaries of this traditional art form by creating monumental works that bring the Chinese script into three-dimensional space while integrating painterly strategies and preserving the essence of calligraphy. This first-ever monograph not only documents Tong s significant contributions to the field for over fifty years, but serves as a valuable resource for understanding Chinese calligraphy as a living, evolving art form. Featuring over eighty color plates, newly commissioned essays, an anthology of critical reviews, and an illustrated chronology, the volume showcases Tong s unique achievements in bridging classical Chinese art and literature with contemporary modes of expression, and challenging perceptions of the art of writing in the modern world.
