This is the catalogue for Lin Fan’s solo exhibition. His calligraphic works are inscribed on wooden boards which are then used to cover the entire floor of the exhibition space. Thus, the exhibition can be likened to that of installation art. In doing this, Lin offers the viewers a new perspective to look at the traditional art of calligraphy while at the same time, explores the way through which calligraphy can be used to express a sense of space. The accompanying essays study the art of Lin Fan in the context of contemporary art and the art of Chinese calligraphy. A biography of the artist is included.
