Calligraphy Biennale

Doha recently had an Arabic Calligraphy Biennale. It ran for 1 month and closed April 22 so I just missed it. The exhibitions aim is to preserve the traditional scripts of Arabic calligraphy while innovating new fonts and integrating them with more contemporary forms of art like graphic design. Here is short article on the event: Doha Arabic Calligraphy Biennale

 I will try to get my hands on some pictures of the pieces and then post them.
