Abstract

From the end of the Qing Dynasty to the present, there have been many famous calligraphers in Shanghai, such as Wu Changshuo, Sha Menghai and Shen Yinmo. However, one of the most important calligraphers of the ‘Shanghai School’ in modern times is Zhou Huijun. She is not only one of the most influential calligraphers of our time, but was also nominated by Calligraphy magazine as one of the ‘Ten People of the Year’. She is an accomplished calligrapher and painter, as well as an accomplished poet. Her representative works include the poem “The Collected Poems of Lu Xun” in running script, and she has thousands of paintings and calligraphic works in circulation today. In this article, while introducing Mr Zhou Huijun’s artistic achievements in calligraphy, we focus on the reasons for the formation of Zhou Huijun’s calligraphic style. Combined with the current situation of contemporary calligraphy, it effectively points out the significance of Zhou Huijun’s calligraphy to the creation of contemporary calligraphy, in order to provide a useful reference for the development of calligraphy art.
