Synopsis:
TAOISM AND THE ARTS OF CHINA brings together a remarkable collection of art from one of China's most ancient and influential traditions. Produced to accompany the first major exhibition ever organized on the Taoist philosophy and religion, this opulent book includes art from as early as the late Zhou dynasty (fifth-third century B.C.) to the Qing dynasty (1644-1911). Many of these works are paintings that show the breathtaking range of style and subject that makes the Taoist heritage so rich. Sculpture, calligraphy, rare books, textiles, and ritual objects are also represented. TAOISM AND THE ARTS OF CHINA includes an engaging series of introductory essays by scholars who discuss a historical introduction to Taoism, archaeological evidence for early Taoist art, and a general introduction to the functions of art in religious Taoism.
