This study investigates the education and practice of calligraphy and graphic design in Saudi Arabia. The study provides recommendations for improvement based upon analysis of the collected data. These recommendations are consistent with the country's own religion, objectives, industry, economy, and regulations. The study has three objectives: (A) To identify current difficulties facing calligraphers in Saudi Arabia, and their causes and origins. (B) To examine the beliefs and attitudes of contemporary Saudi calligraphers toward modifying Arabic calligraphy for commercial industrial use. (C) To gather insights and opinions of professional Saudi calligraphers on improving the education and profession of calligraphy and graphic design in Saudi Arabia.

520 $a This study investigates the education and practice of calligraphy and graphic design in Saudi Arabia. The study provides recommendations for improvement based upon analysis of the collected data. These recommendations are consistent with the country's own religion, objectives, industry, economy, and regulations. The study has three objectives: (A) To identify current difficulties facing calligraphers in Saudi Arabia, and their causes and origins. (B) To examine the beliefs and attitudes of contemporary Saudi calligraphers toward modifying Arabic calligraphy for commercial industrial use. (C) To gather insights and opinions of professional Saudi calligraphers on improving the education and profession of calligraphy and graphic design in Saudi Arabia.
520 $a Qualitative case study methodology is used for the investigation of this study. Participants in this study consisted of nine Saudi professional calligraphers. These participants were selected for their involvement and experience in the education and practice of calligraphy in the country.
520 $a Data for the study were collected during the summer and fall of 2002 in Riyadh, the largest and most important industrial, commercial, educational, and cultural city in Saudi Arabia. Data were triangulated using four methods of data collection: semi-structured interviews, follow-up questionnaires, field notes, and public documents. Interviews, conducted with Saudi professional calligraphers, constitute the main source of data for the study. Additional data came from the participants' responses to follow-up questionnaires developed specifically to obtain answers to new questions raised after the initial interview data had been analyzed. In addition, field notes were taken during a meeting with a member of the Arabic Calligraphy Organization in Alqateef City (ACOAC) and during a visit to Alka-teb Institute for Improving Arabic Calligraphy (AIIAC). Public documents were also collected during those visits.
520 $a Data were analyzed using two methods. Global analysis was used as a practical method for preparing data for other analytic procedures. Then, data were analyzed using content analysis.
520 $a Findings revealed participants' dissatisfaction with calligraphy and graphic design education in Saudi Arabia. They emphasized the importance of improving current art education and calligraphy education in public schools. They also expressed their desire for establishment of calligraphy, graphic design, and fine art schools for Saudi industry.
