TKU’s Carrie Chang Fine Arts Center recently collaborated with the National Palace Museum to bring the ancient calligraphy works of famous Chinese artists to life. Using the e-Calligraphy Pen, prominent works produced over the span of the last two millennia by Wang Yizhi, Huang Tingjin, and Su Shi, to name just a few, are recreated in animation form, stroke by stroke. By using the “restore” function on the high-tech device, learners can clearly view the order and angle of brushstrokes that swept across the parchment and gave life to these timeless masterpieces.

This function, the “restore” capability, is handy for instruction purposes. The Director of the Carrie Chang Fine Arts Center, Dr. Chang Ben-Hang, noted that “even the President of the ROC, Mr. Ma Ying-jeou, gave high appraisal of the e-Calligraphy Pen”.
