ARTS 250 - Approaches to Chinese Art

3 HU, CD
First Semester. This survey of China focuses on artistic production from three perspectives: the artisan, artist, and art market. We will survey major art and architecture across a broad geographic and temporal frame, but focus on smaller artistic contexts, e.g. temples, tombs, imperial courts and literati circles. We will consider issues of patronage, mass production, and individual expression on the changing form and circulation of both painted and sculpted images.
