  4. the source says, "Chinese calligraphy can be seen as the backbone of China's artistic tradition. This branch of art was, and still is, the most dominant vehicle through which the Chinese express their emotions in the world of visual art.

    To begin with, it is crucial to differentiate Western and Chinese Calligraphy. In the west, calligraphy, literally meaning beautiful or good writing is a minor art which tends to embellish letters in a rather preconceived and rigid manner. Western calligraphy is more often than not executed by well practiced artisans (in the past mainly monks), than real artists. This is not to say that the more casual and expressive forms of calligraphy did not exist, however, people involved in this practice were never looked upon as established artists."
