Book Description
Essential Terms of Chinese Painting provides a comprehensive coverage of the broad spectrum of Chinese painting. Through an array of some 900 terms, it exhibits the history of Chinese culture, as interpreted by artists and portrayed in their work. In masterful detail, it describes not only the artistic implements and drawing styles, but also how these are influenced by changing cultural considerations over time such as religion, philosophy, intellectual ideas, and political developments. From the broad view of how the change of dynasties affected painting trends in both format and subject, to the smallest detail of the methods used to paint different styles of tree branches, this is a full compendium of the scope and depth of artwork from China. This volume features twelve chapters which • explore all major areas of art including techniques, implements and materials, inscriptions and seals, painting and mounting formats for all categories including landscape, bird-and-flower, figure and auspicious paintings; • provide a helpful resource for readers to enjoy Chinese art with over 500 full-colour illustrations and pictures to further elaborate the terms discussed; • serve as an introduction to begin a true understanding of traditional Chinese painting.

Book Description
"Folding screens, known as byōbu in Japanese, are treasures within any museum's collection and are beloved by the general public. This beautiful publication brings together the very finest screens from the world-renowned collections of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Saint Louis Art Museum. The featured works range from an extraordinary pair of landscapes by Sesson Shūkei, a Zen-Buddhist monk-painter of the late sixteenth century, to daring works from the late twentieth century. The first half of the Edo period is especially well represented, with a dozen screens from the seventeenth century by Kaihō Yūshō and Tosa Mitsuoki, among other masters. Beyond Golden Clouds also discusses the contemporary scene, with ten examples from the twentieth century proving the longevity of this art form and its currency among modern-day artists. Enlightening essays by important scholars in the field cover topics including the emergence of screens as an art form and a novel discussion of the relationship of Japanese screens to those made in other countries." --
