ART 259 - Art, Politics and Cultural Identity in East Asia

1 unit(s)

(Same as ASIA 259) This course surveys East Asian art in a broad range of media, including ceramics, sculpture, calligraphy, painting, architecture, and woodblock prints. Particular attention is paid to the ways in which China, Korea, and Japan have negotiated a shared “East Asian” cultural experience. The works to be examined invite discussions about appropriation, reception, and inflection of images and concepts as they traversed East Asia. Ms. Hwang.
