Janice Rubenstein Sachse, 1908 - 1998 ii Preface When I was three years old my great-aunt, Janice Rubenstein Sachse, told me that I was an artist. I believed her then and since, I have enjoyed pursuing that goal. She taught me the basics of seeing lines in nature; lines formed on the contact of shadow and light, as well as organic shapes. We also practiced blind contour drawing1. I took this exercise very seriously then, and I have reflected upon these moments of observation as I write this paper. -
Lecture Notes, by James Cahill
Lecture Notes, by James Cahill Note: The image numbers in these lecture notes do not exactly coincide with the images onscreen but are meant to be reference points in the lectures’ progression. Lecture 12D: Sōgen‐ga Sōgenga, the title Iʹve given to this next section, is simply the Japanese pronunciation of Song Yuan hua 宋元畫/ 宋元画, or Song and Yuan painting. But Iʹve used it loosely for the kind of Song and Yuan paintings preserved mainly in Japan, many representing types unknown in China, and what we call Chan painting is prominent among them. I gave a seminar at U.C. Berkeley under this title, and then organized an exhibition of the same title, made up of paintings of this kind as kept in our University Art Museum, along with examples borrowed from dealers in Japan. It was a small and quiet exhibition that didnʹt get much publicity, didnʹt cost much (we had a $5,000 grant from the Society for Asian Art in San Francisco), and produced only a very modest catalog. But Iʹm still devoted to this kind of painting, which I know well from many years of making the rounds of Japanese collectors and dealers, so Iʹve devoted this section of my last lecture to it. So if this section is seen by any multimillionaire who wants to build a collection of these paintings, and maybe a museum of them, get in touch with me for some introductions and advice. For the rest of you, just enjoy them and try to pay more attention to them in the future. -
The Costume in the Earliest Chinese Hand Scroll
Vol. 6, No. 1 Asian Social Science The Costume in the Earliest Chinese Hand Scroll Yue Hu Fashion Art Design Institute, Donghua University Shanghai, 200051, China Fashion College, Shanghai University of Engineering Science Shanghai, 201620, China E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The earliest Chinese hand scroll extant painting is the ‘Nushi zhen’ by Gu Kaizhi housed in the British Museum, which is now often considered to be a Tang Dynasty copy of the original. By compared with correlated literatures and images, the typical skill and styles in which the earliest Chinese figure painters of Jin Dynasty (AD 265-420) depicting costumes is opened out, as well as the typical costume patterns and styles of man, woman and children. Keywords: Costume, Hand scroll, ‘Nushi zhen’, Gu Kaizhi In South Qi Dynasty (AD 479-502) of Southern Dynasties, Xie He said: “No ancient painting is exquisite until Wei Xie.” in his <Commentaries on Ancient Paintings>. The ancient paintings Xie mentioned were the Chinese handscroll paintings of figure illustrations, and Wei was famous in Western Jin Dynasty (AD 265-317). So the mature style of Chinese ancient handscroll painting should appear from then on. Unfortunately, there was no Wei’s painting in existence, even copies. The earliest painting we can see nowadays is the ‘Nushi zhen’ by Gu Kaizhi housed in the British Museum, who was a top painter of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 317-420), and ever learned painting from Xie. Upon that, this article will study the representation of garment and accessories of the figures in the painting all-sided. -
Zen As a Creative Agency: Picturing Landscape in China and Japan from the Twelfth to Sixteenth Centuries
Zen as a Creative Agency: Picturing Landscape in China and Japan from the Twelfth to Sixteenth Centuries by Meng Ying Fan A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Meng Ying Fan 2020 Zen as a Creative Agency: Picturing Landscape in China and Japan from the Twelfth to Sixteenth Centuries Meng Ying Fan Master of Arts Department of East Asia Studies University of Toronto 2020 Abstract This essay explores the impact of Chan/Zen on the art of landscape painting in China and Japan via literary/visual materials from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. By rethinking the aesthetic significance of “Zen painting” beyond the art and literary genres, this essay investigates how the Chan/Zen culture transformed the aesthetic attitudes and technical manifestations of picturing the landscapes, which are related to the philosophical thinking in mind. Furthermore, this essay emphasizes the problems of the “pattern” in Muromachi landscape painting to criticize the arguments made by D.T. Suzuki and his colleagues in the field of Zen and Japanese art culture. Finally, this essay studies the cultural interaction of Zen painting between China and Japan, taking the traveling landscape images of Eight Views of Xiaoxiang by Muqi and Yujian from China to Japan as a case. By comparing the different opinions about the artists in the two regions, this essay decodes the universality and localizations of the images of Chan/Zen. ii Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest gratefulness to Professor Johanna Liu, my supervisor and mentor, whose expertise in Chinese aesthetics and art theories has led me to pursue my MA in East Asian studies. -

Qi Baishi: a Master of Many Arts
QI BAISHI: A MASTER OF MANY ARTS Qi Baishi was equally renowned for his achievements in seal carving as for his contributions to modernizing traditional literati painting; he was also a master calligrapher and poet. He was born to a poor farming family in Xiangtan, Hunan Province, and learned Chinese characters from his grandfather, who used a stick to trace them in the dirt. Physically unsuited to farming tasks, he was apprenticed to a woodcarver, but at nineteen he came across a book that would change his life: the Mustard Seed Garden Manual, a classic early Qing dynasty (1644–1911) treatise illustrating traditional techniques of literati painting. Qi taught himself to paint from it, refining his skills and studying the arts of seal cutting, poetry, and calligraphy with the many teachers he met as an itinerant woodcarver. His life spanned a period of great upheaval and reform in Chinese culture, but his unique style and politically neutral subjects allowed him to remain in favor through different regimes and cultural shifts. At the end of his life, he was lauded as the “People’s Artist,” elected honorary Chairman of the National Association of Fine Arts, and given the International Peace Award by the World Peace Council. With the resurgence of interest in ink painting in contemporary China, Qi Baishi, sometimes referred to as “China’s Picasso,” is celebrated as one of the leading artists of the twentieth century and his paintings are highly sought after by collectors and museums.

This group exhibition brings together contemporary artists from China/Hong Kong/Japan using different media and forms of works to present a seascape or an abstract sea. The Ocean is enriched with history. Ten thousand years ago, ice sheets melted fiercely, rising tide of water inundated the land between the New Guinea Islands and Australia and engulfed the Bering Land Bridge. Since then, various small civilizations had been trapped in their respective worlds and forgotten for centuries. With the expedition of the "Great Waterway", the dots across the world were reconnected via ships in forms of colonization, trading, monetary flows, and exchange of cultures. And Hong Kong is one of the civilizations derived from such currents. 17/F, H Queen’s, 80 Queen’s Road Central, Central, Hong Kong Tel: 2851-1171 Email: [email protected] www.ora-ora.com Evidently, the bond between man and the ocean is not limited to their interdependence of existence. -
