'Bridge to Understanding,' commemorating the opening of the new Asian Art Museum in the spring of 2003, is a comprehensive introduction to the museum and its collections. The book traces the history of both the museum and its new home, the former main public library in San Francisco's Civic Center; discusses architect Gae Aulenti's transformation of the dark, gloomy library into a bright, dynamic modern museum; and leads the reader on a unique exploration of the galleries, featuring room-by-room discussions of some of the museum's most intriguing (and until now most seldom displayed) works, presented here in high-quality, full-color, full-page reproductions.

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. 'The work of twentieth-century Chinese women artists is now coming into focus,' writes Asian Art Museum director Emily J. Sano in her preface to this book, 'illuminating many remarkable stories of talent, resilience, and will.' One of those stories is that of Fang Zhaoling (1914-2006). This catalogue sheds needed light on her long career, during which she consistently produced innovative work of charm and distinction. Her paintings are marked by a delightful style that is distinctly her own. Fang Zhaoling was an engaged artist who did not shy from addressing political and social issues. In her choice of subjects and inscriptions, she spoke with a clear and compelling voice that called out to be heard. Fang Zhaoling was an engaging with a clear and compelling voice BEAUTIFUL COPY!!!

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Tomoyuki Okada (illustratore). Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. In this book accompanying the exhibition Masters of Bamboo: Japanese Baskets and Sculpture from the Cotsen Collection, exhibition curator Melissa Rinne, in consultation with bamboo specialist Koichiro Okada, provides an overview of this intriguing art form. She also traces the network of master-disciple influences that constitute the major lineages-or lines of artistic transmission-in bamboo art, from nineteenth-century artists through those active today. These lineages have never before been described in a systematic way, and they provide a means of comprehending Japanese bamboo work from a global perspective.

Can decorative objects increase one's wealth, happiness, or longevity? Traditionally, many Chinese have believed that they could provided they include the appropriate auspicious symbols. In Hidden Meanings in Chinese Art Terese Tse Bartholomew, culminating decades of research, has provided a thorough guide to such symbols. Auspicious symbols in Chinese art are often in the form of rebuses - visual puns. Because many words in Chinese share the same pronunciation, there is a wealth of opportunities for such punning, and over the centuries many rebuses have developed established meanings. Should one give a clock as a gift? Certainly not! "To give a clock," songzhong, is a pun for "a last farewell," in other words, for attending a person who is on the edge of death. Why is a pot of philodendrons an appropriate gift for someone opening a new store or restaurant? In America the philodendron serves as a substitute for a Chinese plant named wannianging, or "ten thousand years green." Such a gift expresses the wish that the business will flourish for ten thousand years. Hidden Meanings in Chinese Art brings a systematic approach to the cataloguing of such hidden meanings. The book is divided into ten chapters, guided by the three Star Gods, Fu (blessings, happiness), Lu (wealth, rewards) and Shou (longevity). Fu governs chapters one through three, on blessings, marriage, and children. Lu governs chapters four, five, and six, on passing exams, gaining official rank, and obtaining wealth. Shou governs chapter seven, on longevity. Three additional chapters survey motifs for peace, wish-granting. and festivals. Richly illustrated with photos of art objects and with many original illustrations by the author and Mulan Bartholomew, and enhanced with extensive bilingual indexes and other supporting materials, this book is an essential reference for anyone interested in exploring Chinese art and culture.
