Abstract

Chinese calligraphy is not only an act of "natural writing", but also a creation of "visual art".Of the two attributes, which one occupies the status of the noumenon has become our concern and debate.Understanding and grasping the morphology generated by calligraphy ontology is conducive to clarifying its historical development, way of existence and relationship with society.The instrumental value and aesthetic value of calligraphy are the two wings of its ontology, which reflect the essential characteristics, social functions and development momentum of calligraphy.The creation tools, material carriers and distribution methods of calligraphy have formed specific forms such as calligraphy style, momentum and tasting in the historical context, gradually melting the two attributes of "natural writing" and "visual art" into one pot. "Epigraphy", "SteleTheory", "Model Calligraphy", "Seal and Clerical Script", "Skill&Clumsiness" and "Hidden Edge"not only exist as theoretical vocabulary of calligraphy art, but also cultural representation of writing behavior
