Publisher's Note
In an unprecedented collaboration between the Guggenheim Museum and the Ministry of Culture of the People's Republic of China, more than 250 spectacular examples of art from 127 regions in China are presented in this in-depth exploration of the themes of innovation and transformation during the great eras of Chinese art. Published to accompany an exhibition which opened at the Guggenheim in February 1998, this volume discusses and illustrates seven major mediums: jade, including examples from the Neolithic period; ritual bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties; low-fired ceramics from the Qin and Han through the Tang periods; porcelain from antiquity through the Song period and the Ming and Qing; landscape paintings and calligraphy; sculpture, including oversize stone Buddhist statues; and textiles.
