The International Exhibition of Calligraphy, Russia


Since starting this blog, I have become more aware of global reach of calligraphy. This month, Moscow is hosting The II International Exhibition of Calligraphy. Look at this list of participants! There’s hours of online exploration here! Or choose to view the gallery. An incredible range of work showing the international appeal of the letter arts.

Thanks, Michel! Your photos are excellent and it looks like an amazing event. How great that they hung magnifying glasses next to some of the pieces... would love to examine some of the work closely.

Thank you for your message! yes it was a good idea magnifiers, I could see the wonders for this painting, artists known and unknown, of course!
Especially in my work, everything is in the details of my concept of photography - calligraphy!
Now he must wait 1 year for a new exhibition in Moscow, then at work all calligraphers!
