During the Joseon Dynasty, great efforts were made to assimilate and absorb new knowledge and culture from the outside world. This fact is made evident by the diversity of Chinese books held at Kyujanggak. While keeping the time-honored traditions of the Joseon Dynasty, King Jeongjo established Kyujanggak as a repository of numerous books, But he also wanted Kyujanggak to become a place where wisdom and knowledge could be created in abundance. Future generations also kept King Jeongjo’’s spirit and continued to gather and study books that contained new knowledge. In this way, Jibokjae, which was established under the reign of King Gojong, also collected books rich in modern scholarship and culture. This special exhibition, Kyujanggak: Embracing the Knowledge of the World, has been conceived as a reconstruction of the efforts of Joseon people to use books as windows to the world and opportunities for groth. King Jeongjo thus always emphasized that nothing compares to books when it comes to breaking away from antiquated knowledge and fostering new ways of thinking. Despite the difficulty of accepting new ideas and ways of thinking, the people of the Joseon Dynasty made great efforts and succeeded in connecting with the outside world. This spirit of wisdom continues even to this day. http://e-kyujanggak.snu.ac.kr/LANG/en/introduction/6_current_exhibition.jsp?type=41&lang=en& pageno=1&curtype=curr 、 1.!

Featured in this exhibition are examples of his most daring and idiosyncratic works, demonstrating his unique visual vocabulary. The selection of painting and calligraphy includes some of Bada Shanren's best work, dating from the 1660s through his peak professional years in the 1680s and 1690s. Also represented is his late period in the early 1700s, when he sought solitude and harmony with the natural order. 2.!

Bishop's collection of carved jades was formed in the last quarter of the nineteenth century and bequeathed to the Metropolitan Museum in 1902. Consisting of over one thousand pieces—primarily Chinese jades of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, as well as jades from Mughal India—it was the first major collection of its kind in the country. This exhibition features a selection of the finest examples from this renowned collection and celebrates the hundredth anniversary of the Department of Asian Art. 2Chinese Textiles Eight Centuries of Masterpieces from the Met Collection September 12, 2015–June 19, 2016 http://www.metmuseum.org/exhibitions/listings/2015/chinese-textiles This installation, which explores the cultural importance of silk in China, will showcase the most important and unusual textiles from the Museum's collection. In addition to three rare pieces dating from the Tang dynasty (618–906), when China served as a cultural hub linking Korea and Japan to Central and West Asia, and, ultimately to the Mediterranean world, the exhibition also includes eleventh- and twelfth-century tapestries from Central Asia, as well as contemporaneous Chinese examples of this technique.

  • The Traditionalist Painter Lu Yanshao (1909-1993) in the 1950S
    COMMUNIST OR CONFUCIAN? THE TRADITIONALIST PAINTER LU YANSHAO (1909-1993) IN THE 1950S THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yanfei YIN B.A. Graduate Program in History of Art The Ohio State University 2012 Master's Examination Committee: Professor Julia F. Andrews Advisor Professor Christopher A. Reed Copyright by Yanfei YIN 2012 Abstract The establishment of the People’s Republic of China in 1949 triggered a deluge of artistic challenges for the Chinese ink painter. Lu Yanshao (陸儼少 1909-1993), an artist skilled in poetry, painting and calligraphy, had built his renown on landscape paintings following a traditionalist style. As of 1949, however, Lu began to make figure paintings that adhered to the guidelines established by the Communist Party. Dramatic social and political changes occurred in the 1950s under the new Communist regime. The Anti-Rightist Campaign, launched in 1957, targeted a large number of educated people, including many artists. Lu Yanshao was condemned as a Rightist and was forced to endure four years of continuous labor reform (laodong gaizao 勞動改造) in the countryside before finally ridding himself of the label of Rightist in 1961. Starting in 1957, Lu shifted his focus from making figure paintings for the country’s sake to his personal interest – creating landscape paintings. In 1959, the artist completed the first twenty five leaves of his famous Hundred-Leaf Album after Du Fu’s Poems. The surviving fourteen leaves combined painting, calligraphy and poetry, and are considered to be early paintings of Lu’s mature phase.

  • The Screen in Fresco Paintings: a Study of the ‘Screen-Style Frescoes’ in the Temples of Gaoping County in China
    arts Article The Screen in Fresco Paintings: A Study of the ‘Screen-Style Frescoes’ in the Temples of Gaoping County in China Wei Liu School of Architectural and Artistic Design, Henan Polytechnic University, Jiaozuo 454000, China; [email protected] Academic Editor: Annetta Alexandridis Received: 26 July 2017; Accepted: 2 September 2017; Published: 12 September 2017 Abstract: Screen-style frescoes, found in the temples of Gaoping County, Shanxi Province, China, and originating mostly from the Qing Dynasty, present a unique painting form. Folk artists not only painted the screen, a common object in everyday life in ancient China, on the wall surfaces, but also created a variety of paintings inside the screen panels, whereby the viewer sees a painting within a painting. This article, based on multiple field trips, aims to analyze screen-style frescoes in terms of their locations, styles, and unique artistic characteristics such as subject matter, color usage, and brushwork. By studying the influence of literati paintings from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the author also reveals the aesthetic transition from religious scenes to secular life as presented in the temple frescoes in ancient Gaoping County. Keywords: screens in fresco paintings; screen-style frescoes; temples in Gaoping County; painting form; literati painting; secularization 1. Introduction The screen, as a common type of furniture and architectural element in ancient China, serves the multiple purposes of shielding from the wind; partitioning interior spaces, most often to create privacy; and functioning as both a painting medium and a decorative artwork (Wu 2009). Mural paintings of the screen have been primarily found in tomb chambers and grottoes dating back to the Han Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, and the period of Northern and Southern dynasties in China.

The 17th century witnessed the fall of the Chinese-ruled Ming dynasty (1368– 1644), the founding of the Manchu-ruled Qing dynasty (1644–1911), and was one of the most turbulent and creative eras in the history of Chinese art. Comprising over 120 paintings, the exhibition explores ways in which artists of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties used painting, calligraphy, and poetry to create new identities as a means of negotiating the social disruptions that accompanied the fall of the Ming dynasty. Alternative Dreams presents work by over 80 artists, many of whom are the most famous painters of this period—including scholars, officials, and Buddhist monks. “Alternative Dreams is a window into a lost world. The window comprises Chinese paintings and their accompanying calligraphies, through which one can explore key aspects of Chinese culture,” says Stephen Little, Florence & Harry Sloan Curator of Chinese Art at LACMA. “Among these is the respect for antiquity and the importance—for an artist—of transforming the past into something new and relevant for the present.” About the Exhibition Alternative Dreams is divided into nine sections arranged both chronologically and geographically: Dong Qichang and Painting in Songjiang; the Nine Friends of Painting; Painting in Suzhou and Hangzhou; Painting in Fujian and Jiangxi; Painting in Nanjing; The Anhui School; The Orthodox School; Buddhist Monks; and Flower and Bird Painting.

Dissertation Advisor: Professors David Damrosch and David Wang Guangchen Chen Collecting as Cultural Technique: Materialistic Interventions into History in 20th Century China Abstract This dissertation explores the interplay between the collecting of ancient artifacts and intellectual innovations in twentieth century China. It argues that the practice of collecting is an epistemological attempt or a “cultural technique,” as formulated by the German media theorist Bernhard Siegert, to grasp the world in its myriad materiality and historicity. Through experiments on novel ways to reconfigure objects and study them as media on which intangible experiences are recorded, collectors cling to the authenticity of past events, preserve memory through ownership, and forge an intimate relationship with these objects.

  • CHANGING EVALUATIONS of the FOUR WANGS DURING 20 TH -CENTURY CHINA Xingkui Wang, MA, 2009
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: CHANGING EVALUATIONS OF THE FOUR WANGS DURING 20 TH -CENTURY CHINA Xingkui Wang, MA, 2009 Thesis directed by: Professor Jason Kuo Department of Art History and Archaeology This thesis examines the receptions of the Four Wangs during the Republican Period (1911 – 1949) and the People’s Republic Period (1949 – present). Twentieth century China has witnessed great changes in its cultural landscape. With new ideas and technologies from the West, traditional Chinese painting has been reevaluated, and sometimes rejected. The Four Wangs of the Early Qing dynasty, seen as the last great achievement of Chinese painting in the literati tradition before the twentieth century, are under fierce debate. Whether the Four Wangs have any genuine creative achievement or are they mere imitators of the ancient masters is one of the central issues. But the debate on the Four Wangs also concerns greater cultural issues, such as whether China should embrace the Western realistic style in art in order to revolutionize Chinese painting. This thesis examines the evaluations of the Four Wangs and pays close attention to the opinions of prominent figures such as Kang Youwei, Chen Duxiu, Cai Yuanpei, Teng Gu, Chen Shizeng, Fu Baoshi, Hu Peiheng, Yu Jianhua, Huang Binhong, Xu Beihong, Tong Shuye, Wang Bomin, Nie Chongzheng, etc. By examining these figures’ opinions of the Four Wangs, this thesis hopes to investigate the historical context of each argument, and identify the strategies each one employs to convince the opposing side.
