Letter Arts Review is an international quarterly journal that focuses on the art and design of original lettering. It covers calligraphy, typeface design, custom lettering—both digital and analog—sign painting, letter carving, asemic writing, the book arts, and text-based art. While its main focus is on the Roman alphabet, it also covers developments in Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese, and other world writing systems. It promotes the work of contemporary lettering artists and also explores the rich history of world writing as an art form. Letter Arts Review has been published continuously since 1982 and has a global readership.
