PAINTING
Painting
Cannons of Chinese paintings
1.•Engendered a sense of movement
2.•Used brush with bone method
3.•Responds to things
4.•Describes appearances with color
5.•Dividing and planning
6.•Transcribing earlier models
Painting
The first law shows that they wanted spirit in the
art. The second is bone method which means the
close link of handwriting and the brushstrokes. The
third, fourth and fifth laws shows that the artists
were really concerned about detail since they
planned where everything was going to go, what
color they would be, and how they were positioned.
The final sixth lets you know how much they valued
those that came before and those that taught them.

Sculptures - Ceramics
▸Pottery wasn’t invented until the fourth millennium. They created
earthenware bowls and stonewares and go back from the neolithic
to the Tang Dynasty
▸The Chinese used terracotta, porcelain, and kneaded clay to create
ceramics, elegant vessels, and pottery.
▸They used glaze to produce a hard, glassy surface to their ceramics.
They also decorated the ceramics and vessels by painting the
surface and using the glaze thickly to add a dramatic effect
Sculpture
▸Most Dynasties had different styles in ceramics, the
Shangs used to model the clay into a model, then once
dried they would add damp clay to where it was still
flexible and so on to get the shape they wanted
▸The Chinese, such as the Zhou and Qin, used jade (or
nephrite) for artwork and ritual objects in the Neolithic
period. It was believed to posses magical qualities that
could protect the dead. Due to the hardness, the
sculptures had to use methods other than their stone tools
Sculpture
▸Since Buddhism was a dominant religion, many forms of
Buddha were created, the earliest dating to the Disunity
period
▸They created armies out of life-sized terracotta
▸In Korea, although there was Buddhist influence, their
sculptures were more smooth rather than rigid surfaces.
▸In modern China, porcelain was used more in ceramics
or delicate dishes
▸Human sculptures were more human realistic features
RELIGION
Religion
The first religion was:
•Daoism
-This religion emerged out of metaphysical teachings
-Attracted wide followings during the Warring States Period(475-221 BCE)
-Seek to follow the Universal Path(DAO) “perfect balance”: between

Religion
The second religion(also took place around same time) was:
•Confucianism
-A man named Confucius hoped to personalize the social and stability
-How: by Junzi (“superior person”) who possesses Ren (hearted-ness
-Around 371-289 BCE Confucius’s disciple developed his ideas further;
that your age and rank bring a “reciprocal responsibility”
-However he never got to see that happen because he died but it still
impacted Chinese thought and social practices
-So it became a religion and a philosophic tradition
Religion
The final and main religion is:
•Buddhism
-During the first century CE Buddhism came from the Silk Road
-Religion would also travel through the Silk Road not just trades
occurred; so Buddhism traveled from India to China
-This religion impacted not just religion but art; it opened up a new
history of China and Korea
