KALLIGRAPHIA 2025
7 June – 31 August 2025
An Exhibition by Members of the Friends of Calligraphy
The Friends of Calligraphy is pleased to present Kalligraphia 2025, its 17th membership exhibition. Kalligraphia, held every three years, is un-juried and open to all current members of the organization. The exhibition’s title, a transliterated Greek word meaning “beautiful writing,” was adopted by the Friends of Calligraphy for its first exhibition in 1976. It has provided a sense of continuity for the succeeding membership exhibitions, through the evolution of the organization over 50 years and the shifting landscape of current trends in the field of calligraphy. The original works submitted for display demonstrate a wide range of contemporary calligraphic practices, from the traditional to more experimental methods of using letterforms as a means for artistic expression. All levels of accomplishment, from student to amateur and professional works, are represented and reflect the inclusive nature of the organization and the vitality of the art and craft of calligraphy.
Opening Reception: June 7, 2:00-4:00 pm

The Jean Paul Exhibition Das Leben ist ein Augenblick
Vernissage 5.30pm at the Public Library in Bayreuth, Germany
The German author Jean Paul (1763-1825) died 250 years ago and he will be celebrated with an exhibition in Bayreuth. In 2012 I was invited to participate in a calligraphic collaboration, Europa Scriptorium organized by the renowned calligrapher Andrea Wunderlich. Artwork from this project will be on display in The Bayreuth Public Library RW21, Germany.
