清代碑學的興起，是對書法發展自身式微趨勢的針砭，方法在於回歸二王之前的古代傳統；而現代書法的出現，則是十九、二十世紀東西方文化碰撞的結果，要在吸取西方文藝理論，取法方式有所不同，卻皆為古典書法走向現代化的一道里程碑。歷時近一世紀，現代書法目前卻仍處於萌芽的、嘗試性的狀態，僅在形式、技巧、媒材…等方面打破古典的方式，而主觀化的元素充斥，使得現代書法幾乎呈現無「法」的局面。也正因如此，現代書法引發了種種爭議。書法的現代化乃時勢所趨!中國書法如何在現代化的浪潮之下走向世界卻不失東方特色，是目前熱烈討論的議題。本論文嘗試對現代書法提出三點概括性的見解：一、現代書法的現代、後現代主義精神。二、現代書法的形式主義原則。三、現代書法文字的開放性特徵，希望由這三方面進行探討，對現代書法有宏觀性的把握；另一方面亦欲藉此尋求現代書法創作形式和內容的規範。
