The Meaning of Art - Chinese Art Introduction by Herbert Read

The
history of Chinese art is more consistent, and even more persistent,
than the art of Egypt. It is, however, something more than national. It
begins about the thirtieth century B.C. and continues, with periods of
darkness and uncertainty, right down to the present century. No other
country in the world can display such a wealth of artistic activity, and
no other country, all things considered, has anything to equal the
highest attainments of this art.

Chinese technique is amazingly simple: it involves the knowledge of the
use of one brush and one color—but that brush used with such delicacy
and that color exploited with such subtlety, that only years of arduous
training can produce anything approaching mastery. As is well known, the
Chinese normally write with a brush, and a brush is as familiar to them
as a pen or pencil is to us. The first fact to realize about Chinese
painting is that it is an extension of Chinese handwriting. The whole
quality of beauty, for the Chinese, can inhere in a beautifully written
character. And if a man can write well, it follows that he can paint
well. All Chinese painting of the classical periods is linear, and the
lines which constitute its essential form are judged, appreciated and
enjoyed, as written lines.

Throughout its history, then, Chinese art conceives nature as animated
by an immanent force, and the object of the artists is to put themselves
in communion with this force, and then to convey its quality to the
spectator.

the most
distinctive variations are due to religious influences, to Buddhism and
Confucianism. No doubt, as always, these religions gave a tremendous
impetus to artistic activities of all kinds. But they also did a lot of
harm – Buddhism by its insistence on a dogmatic symbolism, always a
bad element in art; and Confucianism by its doctrine of ancestor
worship, which was interpreted in art as crude traditionalism, requiring
the strict imitation of ancestral art. But in spite of these
limitations, perhaps in some sense because of them, Chinese art
maintains its vitality, reaching its highest development in the Song
period, a period which corresponds roughly in time, and even more
strikingly in mannerism, with the early Gothic period in Europe.
