We are excited to share that the Japanese calligrapher
Fugaku Watanabe is coming to Studio Gabel on August 5th to do two performances.
This is a live, dynamic calligraphy performance where powerful strokes and visual harmony come to life in the gallery’s calm atmosphere.
Smaller original works and the performance piece will also be available for viewing and purchase.
Fugaku Watanabe is a professional Japanese calligrapher holding a Ph.D. in Calligraphy. He blends traditional master techniques with contemporary artistic expression. Fugaku actively works internationally, having provided private calligraphy instruction to Hollywood actor Brad Pitt, and supervised the calligraphy for major Japanese films.
There will be two performances, one at 15:00, and one at 17:00. Doors open at 14:30.
Entrance fee 100,-
There will be served tea and after the performance the artist will offer a “live” service where he writes custom calligraphy pieces for those who are interested.
Hope to see you there!
