Problem and Future of Chinese Calligraphy

As the practical value of calligraphy decreases, the art form suffers from the impact of Western culture. The spirit of the traditional art is increasingly ignored, driven by the quest for fame and fortune. The work deviated from the Chinese characters and the basic requirement of calligraphy. Impulsive creativity ran wild. This leaves us with the current problem of how to uphold the best of traditional Chinese calligraphy while also reflecting modern culture and life.
 
In order for the traditional arts to prosper, and to promote the spirit of the times, protect the Chinese national culture and enhance the competitiveness of Chinese art, Chinese artists have been working to enter both modern and traditional calligraphy into the international market.
 
In order to secure the future of Chinese culture and traditions, modern calligraphy artists and the art world in China needs to reflect seriously on the contemporary trend of calligraphy and keep its future healthy and stable.
 
Modern calligraphy is walking into the international art market at early stages. Over a period of time, calligraphy artists will create new styles, the modern calligraphy will become a stable part of the market and will probably occupy equal space with the traditional style in the calligraphy field.
 
Modern Chinese calligraphy has infused society with a new spirit, a modern spirit, and has supplied modern society with an aesthetic and spiritual product which matches its needs. It is exuberant and creative and brings joy to the people who see it and value it. It has social value and reflects the achievements of modern China.
 
For these reasons, and as long as it doesn't depart too drastically from traditional calligraphy and lose its roots, there is an open road ahead for modern Chinese calligraphy.
