Oracle bone script was China’s first fully developed Chinese character system. In November 2017, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization selected the Oracle bone script to enter the Memory of the World Programme.
Examples of oracle bone scripts are scarce in the contemporary art world. This book showcases never-before-seen oracle bone inscriptions by the famous Chinese artist and calligrapher Qin Shiwei.
We hope to preserve Chinese culture and promote cultural exchange between the East and the West by publishing these works. The engravings and paintings found in this book represent a wealth of new material for scholars and research institutions.
Modern Chinese writing can map its history directly back to oracle bone inscriptions. Mr. Qin’s outstanding artistic achievements will undoubtedly preserve the legacy of oracle bones for the next generation.
