First broadcast: 23 Oct 2013.
The ancient art of Chinese painting is one of the oldest continuous artistic traditions in history.
Kate Bryan, former Hong Kong resident and the Fine Art Society's head of contemporary, travels to China to find out more about this tradition, a journey which coincides with a once-in-a-lifetime exhibition at London's Victoria & Albert Museum, 'Masterpieces of Chinese Painting'. In China, Kate learns about the golden age of Chinese landscape and discovers why ink is still favoured over paint. She also learns how the country's unique aesthetic was heavily influenced by age-old standards of class and politics.
Some of these paintings are over 1000 years old. Pretty impressive.
For anyone wondering, the song that plays at the end is Aphex Twin - #3

That's the begining of the butterfly lovers violin concerto.

I don't know why they say is not realistic. Those foggy landscapes and twisted trees are pretty common in some areas of China. Some of these paintings are so detailed that if you looked at a photo you wouldn't get any closer to the scenery. I feel like the people talking in this video never travelled beyond cities or looked out of a window.
“Not realistic” means they’re not a direct study from life. Literati paintings are actually quite abstract when compared to the far more detailed court paintings made by professional painters at the time. They’re more idealized landscapes and are not painted from life, and are intentionally blander. But also, the people in the video aren’t talking out of their asses when they describe these paintings - the Chinese wrote extensively about painting (their first art history books date back to the 4th century) and the literati painters were scholars; they wrote about their methods in great detail. We don’t have to rely on modern interpretation of these paintings because the artists explained everything themselves.
anyone know the piano piece at 12:00 ?
If you enjoyed watching this video, you'd probably like some of the paintings showcased in our channel. 👍🏼

2:44 Calligraphy Cheetah?
She says "tutor".
What is so surprising about learning to paint by copying the masters? That was the way European artists were trained right up until WWI. It's called academic training. As in Academy of Art?
los chino no son original en su propio estilo ellos tienen que pintar de la misma forma que los de sus antepasado odservas bien todo dibujan al igual no hay diferensia en la pintura china in dia es por eso que algunos chino empiezan aprender pinturas oil o acrilico para se verdaderamente su originalidad
1 wrong move on the painting, the whole thing ruined.
I like the colour work more. You can trace the rise of the Patriarchy...man wants to rule and control nature and art. The 'science ' of calligraphy.....the technique set over human feeling and empathy .
