O Calígrafo Ocidental. Fernando Lemos e o Japão (The Western Calligrapher. Fernando Lemos and Japan)

O Calígrafo Ocidental.
Fernando Lemos e o Japão
The exhibition catalogue “O Calígrafo Ocidental. Fernando Lemos e o Japão” (“The Western Calligrapher. Fernando Lemos and Japan”) brings together a significant selection of images of the works included in the exhibition, many of them previously unseen in Portugal. Many of the photographs were taken during Fernando Lemos' time in Japan, where he arrived on a Gulbenkian Foundation scholarship to study Japanese calligraphy and art, and bear witness to the seminal influence of Japanese culture on his artistic practice. The book also includes a wide range of texts, including an essay by each of the exhibition's curators, Leonor Nazaré and Rosely Nakagawa, and an essay by Ryuta Imafuku. The book is the result of the exhibition of the same name, which marks the reopening of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation's Modern Art Centre (CAM).
