Publication Title: Shu, Ha, Ri: Lu Pu Calligraphy Exhibition ISBN: 9786267608678 Dimensions: 25.5 x 18 cm Binding: Hardcover Pages: 80 Language: Traditional Chinese Product Description: Selected for the 2025 Call for Exhibition Proposals at the Calligraphy Museum, "Shu, Ha, Ri: Lu Pu Calligraphy Exhibition" borrows its title from the philosophical views of Japanese tea master Sen no Rikyū (1522-1591). It symbolizes three stages in artistic creation: "Shu" (守), representing adherence to tradition; "Ha" (破), breaking old frameworks through innovation; and finally, "Ri" (離), transcending form to achieve creative freedom. This monograph features nearly 30 works from the exhibition, showcasing artist Lu Pu (real name: Toshiki Obara)'s sustained experimental exploration of new forms of calligraphic expression. His work attempts to transcend tradition, aiming to bring calligraphy closer to the sensibilities of contemporary viewers. The exhibition will be held from May 28 to August 18, 2025, in Buildings A and B of the Yokohoma Calligraphy Art Museum. Price: NT$800
