Description: Zhao Mengfu : Calligraphy and Painting for Khubilai's China, Hardcover by McCausland, Shane, ISBN 988802857X, ISBN-13 9789888028573, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Zhao Mengfu has enormous significance for Chinese art history. This work presents a new, synthetic portrait of the artist’s development from the 1280s to his death in 1322, and evaluates his pivotal role in the social-political context in Yuan China as well as the development of the artist’s self-consciousness. Shane McCausland’s study features detailed interpretation of pictorial forms in light of historical changes, and close readings of critical colophons, many appended to artworks, but neglected as visual sources. These readings are meant to stimulate visual analysis of the oeuvre as well as debate about the use of Tang (618–907) and other period modes as models for the 'Yuan renaissance’. Th challenges stereotypes portraying Zhao Mengfu as a traitor or careerist. The historical background of dynastic change and Mongol rule is treated in a revisionist manner that aims to contextualize the traditional Chinese hostility towards Zhao Mengfu as a Yuan scholar-official. The concern here is for his development, in the context of Mongol rule, as a Chinese scholar-artist. This book is a must for scholars, curators and other specialists in Chinese painting and calligraphy, especially those focusing on Yuan dynasty and literati painting.
