LESSON 11 – ART IN ASIA


Assessment:
1. What are the central themes of Chinese artworks? Explain why the Chinese focused on these
themes.
Traditional Chinese Artworks is known well as Guohua in China. It can be divided into
figure painting, landscape and flower-bird painting in general according to the different themes
of paintings.
Among the typical themes of traditional Chinese art there is no place for war, violence,
the nude, death or martyrdom. Nor is inanimate matter ever painted for art’s sake alone; the
very rocks and streams are felt to be alive, visible manifestations of the invisible forces of the
universe.
2. In what ways are Chinese and Japanese art similar? In what ways are they different?
While Chinese has an “easy” and reduced grammar, the Japanese have a “difficult” and
rather large grammar. In Chinese verbs and adjectives are not combined, in Japanese they are.
A grammatical similarity is that both languages have a “theme-comment” structure.
3. What were some the uses of roles of art during the Pre-Colonial Period?
Through migration and trade during Pre-Colonial Period, there was a lively cultural
interchange between the Philippines and other Asian countries. This helped Philippines to
develop their own way of living, their own culture such as pottery, weaving, woodcarving,
jewelry, etc.
4. How did art become a reflection of Philippine society?
The arts of the Philippines reflect a society with diverse cultural influences and traditions.
The Malayan people had early contact with traders who introduced Chinese and Indian
influences. Among those who were assimilated arose an educated elite who began to establish
a modern Filipino literary tradition.

Activity:
1. Write an essay answering this question: to what extent can art help in the formation of the
society’s culture?
Art influences society by changing opinions, instilling values and translating experiences
across space and time. Painting, sculpture, music, literature and the other arts are often
considered to be the repository of a society’s collective memory. Art preserves what fact-based
historical records cannot: how it felt to exist in a particular at a particular time. Art also has
utilitarian influences on society. Art not only fosters the human need for self-expression and
fulfilment; it is also economically viable.
