Source of Taiwan and the mainland culture of a pulse, but 110 years ago, by more than 50 years of Japanese rule, already suffering from the impact of wind. Fortunately, the Nationalist government moved to Taiwan, both brought a lot of German Art Calligrapher, leaving Taiwan and the Central Plains culture re-contact. As the Taiwanese smart, diligent, both aggressive and simple and honest, a few years down the stick from the previous tradition, and now with a variety of new art, trying to create a new situation. The new Bureau is an independent, not with the confluence of the development of calligraphy in China, because we and the mainland, in terms of positive and simple word of education, traditional culture, critical thinking, from the value of calligraphy, to the people for Calligraphy acceptable level, there are great differences. Calligraphy work performance, it is easy to distinguish between Taiwan and the mainland calligraphers calligrapher's the difference, even if people on both sides write the same book content and the same body, but the style of performance is still different, and Japanese and Korean calligraphy works are also significantly different.
