Further details
Aoyama San’u (1912-1993), also known as Aoyama Fumio, was a famous calligrapher in modern Japan. When he was a young man, he was influenced by Ooike Seiran (1899-1977), and also used Chinese calligraphy from the Wei and Jin Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty as a model to study calligraphy. Aoyama served as a professor at Daito Bunka University and Chukyo University, and contributed greatly to the development and education of Chinese calligraphy at the Kenshin Shudo Association and Daito Bunka University. He was a member of the Japan Art Institute and an advisor to the Kenshin Shudo Association, and was awarded a prize by the Japan Art Institute for his three books.
