These calligraphy works, often spreading more than 2 meters high and 3 meters wide, featured a very simple style opposite from the established aesthetics of Chinese calligraphy. According to Ding Shenyang, chairman of the Shanghai Calligraphers' Association, "Zhao Lengyue hoped to usher in new aesthetic ideas for Chinese calligraphy, rather than catering to popular expectations," Ding said. "He was creating for the art history, and connoisseurs in the future."
