Egypt: Art Of Arabic Calligraphy In Egypt
Arabic calligraphy is a genuine Islamic and Arabic art. The art of Arabiccalligraphy, anyway, was developed over ages to become spiritual engineering
http://www.touregypt.net/historicalessays/calligraphy.htm

Extractions: Art of Arabic Calligraphy Arabic calligraphy is a genuine Islamic and Arabic art. It is, no doubt, the most important element of the Arabic legacy, as it is the pot wherein all Arab cultures, over succeeding generations, are merging to come up with such eternal heritage. Its forms, however, differ, as Arabic calligraphy has surpassed the end of writing process itself to reach eternity in terms of design and styles; further becoming one of the outstanding features of Islamic arts, constituting the common denominator for all Arab and Islamic arts, either they were taking shapes of fixed buildings or mobile antiques. It was, also, used in photographing and mosques decorating, as there is not one Arab monument void of Arabic calligraphy art tang. Calligraphy, as a matter of fact, was and will remain playing fundamental role in the history of mankind, as it is a key tool of establishing communication among peoples; conveying and preserving human heritage along with its experiences over times and maintaining civilizations from generation to another. The need for writing and codifying has emerged with the dawn of the history, as such was phased in through five stages:

Calligraphy is the most highly regarded and most fundamental element of Islamic art Prophet Muhammad , was transmitted in Arabic, and that inherent within the Arabic script is the potential for developing a variety of ornamental forms. The employment of calligraphy as ornament had a definite aesthetic appeal but often also included an underlying talismanic component. While most works of art had legible inscriptions, not all Muslims would have been able to read them. One should always keep in mind, however, that calligraphy is principally a means to transmit a text, albeit in a decorative form.

http://www.artsci.wustl.edu/~ajls/calligraphy.html

Extractions: Calligraphy is the art of beautiful writing. In Japan, handwriting is appreciated as an art. The study, creation, and collecting of fine calligraphy are all considered cultural pursuits. In earlier times, writing was also thought to be a higher art form than painting, for it was believed that calligraphy embodied the writer's creative character and inner spirit. Japanese writing began from the Chinese writing system but later developed an elegant cursive script that became a great calligraphic tradition. Brush, ink, paper, and silk - the basic materials of calligraphy - were introduced in the 5th century to Japan from China where written characters and different scripts had evolved for over two thousand years. At first, the Japanese studied the Chinese language and used its new and complex characters for religious and government documents. But by the 8th century, Japanese writers began to change their use of Chinese to create their own expressive literary forms. Chinese scripts were abbreviated to produce sets of phonetic symbols, called katagana and hiragana, each representing one syllable of the Japanese language. The graceful, cursive lines of hiragana became the favored script for poetry, literature, and private letter writing. The exhibition Beautiful Brush represents Japanese calligraphy in both Chinese and hiragana scripts through the work of two Japanese calligraphers, Rengetsu and Kaioku. The Buddhist nun Otagaki Rengetsu (1791-1875) was one of the most celebrated artists of the 19th century. She was noted for her exceptionally fluid and delicate writing of hiragana in her poetry, paintings, and on her stoneware pottery for which she was also famous. Her contemporary Nukina Kaioku (1778-1863) was a Confucian scholar and painter, who was a much admired for his powerful and bold Chinese-style calligraphy. Together their artworks reveal the creative genius of Japan in the literary and visual arts.
