JAPANESE CALLIGRAPHY IN THE 21ST CENTURY: AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE
Dr Fuyubi Nakamura, Research School of Humanities, ANU

This paper discusses why and how calligraphy is practiced and produced in contemporary Japan and beyond. Based on ethnographic fieldwork on the “worlds of Japanese calligraphy”, known as shodōkai, it offers a fresh and current perspective on Japanese calligraphy. It provides a unique insight into the changing “calligraphic worlds” from the perspective of those who define and make them. The paper explores theories on material and visual cultures as mechanisms of historical and cross-cultural encounters, but also contributes to the understanding of reconfigurations of indigenous agencies and identities through an analysis of Japanese calligraphy.

Fuyubi is a socio-cultural anthropologist and specialises in the anthropology of art, museology and the material and visual cultures of Asia, especially Japan. Fuyubi obtained a doctorate for her thesis on contemporary Japanese calligraphy from the University of Oxford where she taught the anthropology of art and museum studies as a tutor.
