Abstract

This study focused on the fact that both dance and calligraphy have a common formal concept with harmony, balance, and rhythmical beauty as the long-standing traditional forms of art in the Eastern world. First, the study examined the relationship between dance and calligraphy by looking at old literature and successfully identified the common ‘formal concept of beauty’ they shared. During the process of understanding calligraphy, the study noticed that the emotions which occurred while moving the brush were not much different from the emotions that arose when the dancer moved their body to express a certain movement. It was found that the contents and the emotions that occurred during the creation phase of dancing and calligraphy were almost identical. Instead, the sole difference was that calligraphy used the movement of the brush, while dancing utilized the movement of the body and the eyes. This suggested that dance and calligraphy shared the concept of beauty of ‘form, harmony, and control.’ With this result, the study suggested that the art of calligraphy and dancing had a possibility to be performed together in various ways under harmony by creating an environment that allowed artistic cooperation.
