A renowned contemporary calligrapher, he served as a government diplomat and president of the Taiwan College of Fine Arts (now the National Taiwan University of Arts) in his earlier years, and thus earned the title of \u201cCalligrapher President\u201d. After which, he served as the head of the Department of Fine Arts and the Director of the Institute of Fine Arts at the Chinese Culture University.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inspired by the famous calligrapher Li Ruiqing of the late Qing Dynasty and early Republican period, Chang Lung-Yen\u2019s calligraphic style combines simplicity and strength, characterized by numerous vertical and elongated strokes, and is capable of calligraphing more than 70 types of characters, including oracle bones and bronzes inscriptions. According to Huang Guang-Nan, the former director of the Taiwan Museum of History, Chang Lung-Yen \u201cstudied the history of Chinese literature, philology and calligraphy from Hu Xiaoshi when he was young, starting with the Han stele clerical script and studying all kinds of stele and all kinds of styles; after his middle age, he devoted himself to the Han and Jin wooden scribes and further acquired knowledge. Since then, he has been able to appreciate the Song dynasty\u2019s postal calligraphy. His imitation of Huang Tingjian can be described as luxuriant and magnificent, while his calligraphy of Mi Fu\u2019s works has been described with a \u201cdynamic atmosphere\u201d as in Du Fu\u2019s poem. He also stated that Chang Lung-Yen led a diligent and continuous pursuit of studies throughout his life, often claiming him \u201cstill loving calligraphy at old age\u201d, where his later calligraphy style is characterized as demonstrating strength, entering the a state of \u201csynonymous maturity with calligraphy\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

He has taught the history of calligraphy both domestically and internationally, where he has gained a wealth of students. He was a mentor of Fu Shen, and Liu Guosong\u2019s paintings were also deeply influenced by him. Fu Shen remarked: \u201cMy master\u2019s composure, scholastic works, and lines of seal and clerical script reveal the full extent of his mastery, as reflected in his calligraphy.\u201d His calligraphy, artistic and literary skills are deeply rooted in his rich education.<\/span><\/p>\n

He has imitated numerous contemporary and masters in the past and has been practicing calligraphy for over seventy years, yet he does not undertake exhibitions lightly. Having lived in New York for nearly thirty years, Chang Lung-Yen\u2019s name may seem unfamiliar in Taiwan. However, in his early years, he was an active figure in the administrative system of our country, international diplomatic circles, and cultural, educational, and artistic circles, with a doctorate in law and a permanent member of the Swiss International Academy of Arts and Letters. Despite the fact that he had been a major official and had money and power at his fingertips, he remained \u201ca courtier with a heart like water,\u201d a man of literature, and a rare example of his life in these troubled times.<\/span><\/p>\n
