Description

This book contemplates a large problem: what is a traditional Chinese painting?

Wu Hung answers this question through a comprehensive analysis of the screen, a major format and a popular pictorial motif in traditional China.

The Double Screen offers a powerful non-Western perspective on diverse artistic and cultural genres, from portraiture and pictorial narratives to voyeurism and masquerade.
