Description
Take a virtual tour of Chinese masterpieces in U. S. museums as a means of learning about Chinese art history, the painters, and how Chinese art reflects Chinese culture. The relationship of calligraphy and painting and the role of the literati will be explained. Discussions of differences and similarities of Chinese and western art, including modernism and abstract expressionism, will be explored together with why Chinese art reflects things differently than western art.
