Language, writing, and letters are the basis of our communication
as human beings -- and calligraphy celebrates the inherent beauty
of this need to share and connect. This volume showcases what
calligraphy has grown to be in the 21st century, featuring 101
artists from the worlds of graffiti, tattooing, graphic design,
painting, illustration, poster art, comics, and more. Their
different mediums, styles, and languages, including imaginary ones,
show the endless potential and inspiration of turning letters into
art. Each artist featured has a brief bio explaining their
background and inspirations, examples of their artwork, and an
original alphabet. The artists, from 20 countries, share alphabets
in vibrant colour and black-and-white, in clarity and in chaos, in
pencil on paper and paint on walls. In our digital age, where
screens and keyboards have taken over, this ancient art still
thrives.
