An
important part of the Letterforum learning experience are the
exhibitions of calligraphic art on display all week in various
locations:
FACULTY EXHIBIT
Following
the tradition set by previous conferences, the Faculty Exhibit
showcases the multifaceted talents of the Letterforum instructors.
Here, you will see an example of each faculty member’s work that has
not been shown before.
WCG 30th ANNIVERSARY EXHIBIT
This
juried and invitational exhibit celebrates the 30th anniversary of the
founding of the Washington Calligraphers Guild and features the work of
local and international lettering artists.
ICH BIN COLLECTION
This
collection was commissioned by Michael Clark for his children. The
words ”Ich Bin” are interpreted by international lettering artists
using pen, brush and variety of other less traditional tools.
OFFICIAL WASHINGTON
Have
you ever wondered what the everyday workload of some of our Washington
calligraphers entails? We are presenting you with a behind-the-scenes
look at calligraphy and its uses in Washington’s political and social
functions.
THE GRACEFUL ENVELOPE
Every
year the Washington Calligraphers Guild sponsors The Graceful Envelope
Contest. Entries arrive from all over the U.S. On display are the
winners of the 2006 contest.
PARTICIPANTS EXHIBIT
All
participants are invited to bring along a matted but unframed piece for
this exhibit. It is a self-hung exhibit, and hanging supplies will be
provided. The exhibit will be held in the Duke Art Building, so visit
when you arrive to hang your piece. Please label each piece with your name and guild.
LETTERFORUM ENVELOPES
The
humble envelopes that Letterforum participants use to mail in their
registration forms are works of creativity and whimsy. You'll be amazed
at the variety of ideas in this informal exhibit. |
