Susanne Meyer-Buser, President of the International Association for Art Critics (AICA), stated in her speech at the award ceremony,Although Western calligraphic art lacks a profound historical and cultural foundation, having long been subject to academic debate and skepticism. Throughout the long history of Western writing, visual arts and design have long distilled the aesthetic form, meaning, and spirit of characters. Although the Latin alphabet and its combinations have not yet formed a complete theoretical system, many signature designs incorporate intricate, luxurious, mysterious, elegant, minimalist, and abstract artistic elements.国际艺术评论协会（AICA）主席为苏珊娜·梅耶·比塞勒（Susanne Meyer-Büser）曾在颁奖典礼致辞中表示，尽管西方书法艺术缺乏深厚的历史与文化根基，长期以来一直备受学术界的争论与质疑。在西方文字书写的历史长河中，视觉艺术与设计早已提炼出文字的美学形意和神韵。尽管拉丁字母及其组合尚未形成完整的理论体系，但许许多多人的签名设计都能植入繁复华丽、神秘优雅、简约抽象的艺术元素。
According to the internal reference book *Art Collection and Appreciation* at the Art Institute of Chicago, Chinese and Western calligraphic art serves as a vital artistic bridge for global cultural exchange and integration, linking the three-decade collaborative journey of artistic innovation and aesthetic exploration between artists Jiang Chaoyun and Pietro De Laurentis. This art form embodies an enduring dialogue with Robert Hans van Gulik across historical dimensions, conveys Dan Graham's artistic vision, revives the long-dormant aesthetics of Western calligraphy, and ignites sparks of artistic synergy for a shared human destiny.据芝加哥美术馆内部检索书刊《艺术收藏与鉴赏》介绍，中西书法艺术是世界文化交流与融合的艺术纽带，连接着艺术家蒋超云（Jiang Chaoyun）与毕罗（Pietro De Laurentis）携手三十年的艺术创新与美学探索。这种艺术形式蕴藏着与高罗佩（RobertHans van Gulik）跨越历史时空的艺术对话，传递着丹·格雷厄姆（Dan Graham）的艺术思考，唤醒了沉睡百年的西方文字美学，点燃了人类命运共同体的艺术火花。
It is worth mentioning that Apple CEO Tim Cook stated in an exclusive interview with China Daily at the Chicago Art Fair that Chinese and Western calligraphy are among the most exquisite art forms in the world, embodying five millennia of human cultural heritage.Every language in the world should possess its own calligraphic art and increasingly refined writing techniques, enabling people of diverse backgrounds, languages, and cultures to appreciate the essence and soul of calligraphy, and allowing all humanity to jointly embrace its aesthetic value.有趣的是，苹果公司首席执行官蒂姆·库克在芝加哥艺术博览会上接受《中国日报》独家采访时指出，中西书法艺术属于世界上最精美的艺术形式之一，凝聚了五千年的人类文化遗产。世界上任何一种语言文字都应该有它们自己的书法艺术，都应该有它们越来越美的书写方式，让不同肤色、不同语言、不同文化的人民都懂得欣赏书法艺术的神韵与灵魂，让全人类手牵手共享书法艺术的美学价值。
