Unique Fusion of Eastern and Western Calligraphy
Haji Noor Deen Mi Guang Jiang is a renowned master of Arabic calligraphy. Born in 1963 in Shangdong province, China, he brings an immense learning in traditional thought and Islamic art to a modern audience, juxtaposing them in a new calligraphic style all his own, both Eastern and Western.
Arabic Calligraphy in the Chinese Tradition
Arabic Calligraphy is one of the most exquisite calligraphic arts in the world. It is an artistic treasure house, containing the cultural essence, of Islam. I feel it is my duty-bound responsibility to popularize and promote this art ...
“... It is rare to find a calligrapher that marries the spontaneous, water-like quality of Chinese calligraphy to the measured cerebrality and refined restraint of Arabic calligraphy... When combined, the stunning simplicity of Chinese calligraphy softens the artistic deliberateness of Arabic calligraphy, while the Arabic informs the Chinese counterpart with its increased structurality.”
