ARTS 250 - Approaches to Chinese Art


Semester Offered: First Semester
Credits (Range): 3 hours
Attribute: 3HU, CD

This introduction to the arts of China focuses on artistic production from three perspectives: the artisan, artist, and the art market. We will explore art and architecture across a broad geographic and temporal frame (Neolithic-20th century), but focus on smaller contexts and themes within the larger framework, e.g. tombs, cave-temples, imperial courts, literati and avant-garde circles, and the religious or socio-political networks that informed these contexts. An underlying aim is to develop visually literacy in speech and writing using the terminology of the discipline. Enrollment limit: 30.
Instructor: B. Cheng
