Asian Art through Religion Philosophy and Politics
Department(s)
Description
Introduction to the history of Asian art (early India, China, Korea, and Japan) from prehistory to the present. The course will examine a broad range of artifacts including monuments, city planning, architecture, sculpture, painting, calligraphy, ceramics, and prints. How religion, philosophy, and politics uniquely shaped visual culture in Asia is discussed. The course equally emphasizes the cultural transfers, how one culture influences another, and how at the same time a non-indigenous element becomes vernacularized by mixing with the local culture.
