2019 No.1
Event: Life and Arts in Pre-Modern China, Art Museum
In the traditional discourse of Chinese painting, it was believed that an artist should " learn from the Nature externally and trace the source of their own heart internally " 外師造化,中得心源. Unfortunately, with the enormous temporal and geographical differences, both the Nature and the "heart-source" of the ancient masters, as well as their techniques in articulating the two, appear to be unapproachable to us in the modern age. Likewise, the field's ambiguous meta-language, with expressions like 氣韻生動 (infusing ch'i to show lively movement) or 意趣 (subtle charm resulted from spontaneity), can also be a hurdle to uninitiated students.
