IT’S ALL PAPERWORK: the works of Yansu Wang in collaboration with Pineider
28 January 2025When Chinese artist Yansu Wang moved to Italy in 2015, she was gifted a notebook featuring a map of Milan. That seemingly simple gesture sparked a journey of creative exploration. Using recycled materials like receipts, movie tickets, brochures, and even candy wrappers, Yansu began creating a personal “Junk Journal” to document her daily life through collage. Her work, now on display at N.51 in Milan, features an array of her vibrant pop-up books alongside new pieces crafted in collaboration with Pineider. Known for its exquisite stationery, Pineider provided its luxurious papers and notebooks, offering Yansu a unique canvas to bring her latest creations to life. A Cultural and Historical Intersection Collage as an art form is often associated with the early 20th century movements of Cubism, Futurism, Dadaism, Surrealism, and Pop Art. However, Yansu’s work draws on a lesser-known but equally rich tradition of collage in her native China. Paper, invented in China around 200 BCE, has long been a medium for artistic expression. By the 10th century, it was widely used in China and Japan for both practical and creative purposes. Yansu’s exhibition also pays homage to the Bapo tradition—or “Eight Brokens”—a distinctive collage technique that emerged in mid-19th century China. Bapo compositions juxtapose torn, burned, or fragmented elements such as calligraphic texts, inscriptions, and decayed letters to deconstruct cultural symbols and provoke thought. This deeply intellectual art form, rich in symbolism, invites viewers to uncover hidden meanings, aphorisms, and wordplay embedded within its layered visuals. Rediscovering Forgotten Narratives The Bapo tradition was brought back into the spotlight in 2017 through an exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, curated by Nancy Berliner, who described it as “a historic and radically modern-looking art form that had never been recorded.” Yansu Wang’s current work echoes this rediscovery, as she experiments with Bapo-inspired techniques to reinterpret her own visual archive. By merging Pineider’s luxurious craftsmanship with her collage art, Yansu Wang bridges cultural and historical divides, creating a body of work that is both deeply personal and universally resonant. Her pieces explore the juxtaposition of words, symbols, and meanings, offering a modern lens on a timeless art form. An Invitation to Explore IT’S ALL PAPERWORK is more than an exhibition; it’s an invitation to reflect on the narratives hidden within the everyday and to explore how traditions can find new life in contemporary art. Whether you’re drawn by the meticulous craftsmanship of Pineider’s materials or the rich cultural history that underpins Yansu’s collages, this exhibition promises a thought-provoking journey through time, memory, and creativity. Make sure to visit N.51 in Milan before March 16 to experience this unique artistic dialogue. Aggiungi ai preferiti

Emma Nolde: The Magic of Handwriting and the Power of Time
In today’s hyper-digital world, there are still those who choose handwriting as a tool for deep connection with themselves. Emma Nolde, an Italian singer-songwriter with an intense voice and poetic writing style, has recently released her new album NUOVOSPAZIOTEMPO. She shares with us her intimate relationship with paper, pen, and time. Writing and Inspiration: Between Journals and Scattered Pages Emma admits she doesn’t have a single method for writing her songs. Sometimes she uses a computer, other times her phone, or even loose sheets of paper. But her journal is the special place where her initially chaotic thoughts take shape. “My journal is the place that houses my disordered thoughts,” she says. It’s here that ideas germinate and, over time, become songs. The Connection Between Writing and Time For Emma, handwriting is more than a physical act: it’s a therapeutic experience. “When I write in my journal, something magically therapeutic happens,” she explains. The simple act of transferring thoughts onto paper makes her worries feel less overwhelming, like a glass of water after a long wait. She adds, “Most of our anxieties are tied to the passing of time, and writing on paper slows it down immensely.” Handwriting: A Mirror of the Soul The way Emma writes says a lot about her. “I write in cursive, rather small and angular, not rounded. The older I get, the more my handwriting resembles my father’s.” This detail, halfway between inheritance and imitation, holds deep meaning for her and makes her particularly attentive to the handwriting of those around her. “The way someone writes hides important insights into their character,” she says, revealing her curiosity about observing the handwriting of artists she admires. Pen or Pencil? A Definitive Choice When it comes to writing tools, Emma has no doubts: the pen, strictly black and strictly rollerball or gel. “Never ballpoint,” she clarifies, reflecting an awareness that mirrors her personal style and attention to detail. Writing as an Act of Resistance In an era where time seems increasingly fleeting, Emma Nolde invites us to slow down, to return to paper, to let ourselves be cradled by the rhythm of thoughts turning into words. Her handwriting, like her music, reflects a unique identity that intertwines personal and universal stories. Emma Nolde reminds us that handwriting is not just an ancient gesture but a powerful tool for finding order in chaos, slowing time, and expressing oneself with authenticity. Aggiungi ai preferiti
The minuscule chancery script
23 October 2024The term minuscule chancery script is used to describe the script, emerging between the late 13th and early 14th century, that was employed within chancery offices for the drafting of official documents, expressing the will of kings, emperors, popes, and bishops. The minuscule chancery script originated from the littera minuta cursiva (Casamassima), an Italian invention of diplomatic writing that became highly renowned and appreciated throughout Europe. With the spread of a private and secular educational system, the minuscule chancery script became the symbol of the cultured notarial class and was used for drafting texts in the vernacular, such as city chronicles or poetic compositions. While ecclesiastical or university texts continued to prefer the Gothic script, the oldest Italian literary texts we have evidence of are written in minuscule chancery script, including at least forty manuscripts of Dante Alighieri’s works and the Chigian Canzoniere of Italian lyric poetry. Petrarch contributed to the abandonment of Gothic script in Italy, advocating, along with Boccaccio, for a new writing style based on the recovery of the “ancient.” Petrarch’s texts are therefore penned in minuscule chancery script, an elegant writing style with few ligatures and abbreviations, making it highly legible, characterized by delicate contrast and generous spacing. Later, the author developed a form of writing that for a long time was credited to him as an invention, which we now call “semi-Gothic.” This would significantly contribute to the spread of classical culture and the birth of the Florentine Renaissance. The Littera Minuta Cursiva Between the late 12th and early 13th centuries, there was a graphic transformation of the Carolingian minuscule (the reference script of Charlemagne’s reign) that led to the birth of the littera minuta cursiva. The demand for document production increased exponentially with the rise of new national and regional states, making the role of the notary of fundamental importance within medieval society. Parchment, which was very expensive and mainly used for the drafting of books, was replaced by the more economical paper, an excellent medium for preliminary drafting of documents. The standardization of notarial writing, the variety of abbreviations, and especially the spread of vernacular literature contributed to the development of this new script. The littera minuta cursiva is characterized by its pronounced roundness, forming letter connections with a reverse motion known as counterclockwise or “sinistral” (Costamagna). This innovative hand movement is the opposite of the motion that had previously characterized Roman cursive scripts, which ended their tracing “with a stroke upwards or towards the right center” and “almost all opened with a movement from bottom to top.” This script is also marked by the presence of numerous “hooks” in the entrance and exit strokes of individual letters, the extension of the last stroke of i, m, and n downward when they appear at the end of a word, the use of figures executed in a single stroke for speed, such as the cursive a (preferred over the uncial type), and finally, the doubling of the vertical stroke of f,p, and s. Due to the frequent movements of chancery personnel in the late Middle Ages, it is not possible to confirm the sharing of a single model of writing for document drafting, but we can affirm that the *minuta cursiva* began spreading in all chancery offices during those years, especially in papal (Alexander III, Innocent III, Honorius II) and imperial (registers of Frederick II) administrations. Throughout the 13th century, the minuta cursiva extended to municipal and podestà offices. The vertical strokes began to incline to the left and lengthened compared to the central body of the letters in a 3:1 ratio. The hook of ascending and descending strokes elongated and flattened increasingly, foreshadowing what would later become the typical “flag loop” of the minuscule chancery script. The Scriptio continua (a script without word separation) was entirely abandoned in favor of greater legibility, accentuating the variants of letters at the beginning and end of words (e.g., the two *s*) and minimizing abbreviations. Despite its pronounced roundness, this type of writing generally shows a certain Gothic taste, typical of the time, characterized by broken movements. The pen used for tracing the *minuta cursiva* was the same broad-nib pen of the *textualis* Gothic script, with which it also shared the chiaroscuro effect (the difference in thickness between thick and thin strokes) and its broken and oval curves rather than rounded and regular ones. The Minuscule Chancery Script At the end of the 13th century, the *minuta cursiva* reached its mature form and became the official script of the Papal chanceries (such as that of Boniface VIII). By the early 14th century, the term “Italian chancery script” was finally coined, as it became the most commonly used script for drafting documents (both administrative codes and vernacular texts), epistles, and municipal documents produced by the new social classes, such as notaries, judges, and merchants (who would later develop their own script, the *mercantesca*). Francesco Petrarca himself used it in his preparatory manuscript for the *Rerum vulgarium fragmenta*.

Rollerball or Ballpoint Pen? Differences and Which to Choose
Choosing between a rollerball pen and a ballpoint pen is not a trivial decision, as it means selecting the tool you will use to write your daily story. The feeling of a pen between your fingers becomes an extension of your personality, a statement of style, and a means through which your ideas take shape. In this article, we will explore the differences between rollerball and ballpoint pens and the features that make them unique. The Difference Between Rollerball and Ballpoint Pens Let’s delve into the key differences between rollerball and ballpoint pens. Each category of writing instruments has its own distinct appeal, reflected in their writing mechanisms, the type of ink used, cost and adaptability to the specific needs of the user. Writing Mechanism: Rollerball pens have a water-based or gel ink delivery system that offers remarkable fluidity and consistency in writing. On the other hand, ballpoint pens, with their spherical rotation mechanism, provide a more direct and straightforward ink application. Ink Type: Rollerball pens can use a wide range of inks, including gel and water-based, offering a color variety that emphasizes the personality of the writer. Conversely, ballpoint pens typically use oil-based ink, ensuring long-lasting and resilient writing. Both types can be refilled with high-quality Pineider refills. Cost and Intended Use: Ballpoint pens are often chosen for their affordable cost and widespread availability. Among all pen types, they are the most efficient for everyday use without specific needs. Rollerball pens, however, can be considered an investment if you are looking for a more sophisticated stroke and a broad spectrum of inks. Examining these fundamental differences will give you a global overview of what to expect from each type of pen and help you make an informed choice that aligns with your style and preferences. Advantages of Rollerball Pens When it comes to distinctive advantages, rollerball pens emerge as the ideal option for elegance and precision in writing. Let’s closely examine some of the reasons why lovers of written expression appreciate these extraordinary travel companions.
