Description: The Arts of China, Sixth Edition, Revised and Expanded by Michael Sullivan, Shelagh Vainker Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Internationally renowned and a crucial classroom text, The Arts of China has been revised and expanded by the late Michael Sullivan, with Shelagh Vainker. This new, sixth, edition has an emphasis on Chinese art history, not as an assemblage of related topics, but as a continuous story. With updated attributions and dating throughout and a revised bibliography, it reflects the latest archaeological discoveries, as well as giving increased attention to modern and contemporary art and to calligraphy throughout Chinas history, with additional discussions of work by women artists. Visual enhancements include all new maps, and approximately one hundred new color illustrations—bringing the total to well over four hundred color illustrations. Written in the engaging and lucid style that is Sullivans hallmark, The Arts of China is readily accessible to general readers as well as to serious students of art history. Sullivans approach remains true to the way the Chinese themselves view art, providing readers with a sense of the sweep of history through Chinas dynasties. This organizational strategy makes it easy for readers to understand the distinct characteristics of each period of art and to gain a clearer view of how Chinese art has changed in relation to its historical context. With many improvements that bring it fully up to date, The Arts of China will remain the most comprehensive and widely read introduction to the history of Chinese art.
