Interview 004 | Zhang Zikang Talks About Kang Jianyi: Bounded vs Unbounded

Zhang Zikang interpreted Kang Jianyi’s calligraphy from a cross-disciplinary perspective of psychology and sociology, which was very unique. As a businessman, Kang Jianyi combined thoughts on architecture and space with calligraphy, breaking through traditional norms while still basing it on tradition. He also incorporated his understanding of architecture and Buddhism into calligraphy. His calligraphy is a typical example of the transformation of economic capital into cultural capital, and it is a fusion of experimentation and innovation.
