Description
The book is divided into several sections according to the kind of material used. Each section commences with a short history of the given medium, which provides the reader with concise and systematic documentation so as to appreciate the historical background and development of the art works. This is followed by illustrations-computerized models-which reveal how and what part of a given material is used as well as the step-by-step process by means of which the material is transformed into a work of art. The final and the most important part of each section is devoted to illustrations of the finished works of art. Each art work is provided with documentation and a detailed background information, followed by a brief description of the sentiments the work conveys; finally, each work is subjected to an analysis and interpretation of its form and content from an aesthetic point of view. The time and care devoted to editing this volume of works of art embody the hope that all those who truly care about culture and art will be inspired to unlock the gate to the treasures of Chinese civilization.
