There are similar concepts to calligraphy in the west, but they are not the same thing.
But as far as I know, there are also corresponding calligraphy exhibitions in the contemporary west. For example, in 2006, France held the World Calligraphy Exhibition, which was exhibited in different places in France and divided into several series. I remember that there was an Arabic calligraphy exhibition of Latin calligraphy besides China calligraphy in China. I participated in the first one, but the last two seem to have only printed a little on the poster, and the details are not clear.
