About this book

Mit BeitrĂ€gen herausragender Expert/-innen auf dem Feld der ostasiatischen Kunstgeschichte und Glaskunst eröffnet die vorliegende Publikation einen kulturĂŒbergreifenden Dialog, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf einem bislang wenig untersuchten Bereich asiatischer Kunst liegt. Erstmals wird ein umfassender Überblick ĂŒber die chinesische Hinterglasmalerei prĂ€sentiert und ihrer langen Geschichte, ihrer lokalen und globalen Verbreitung sowie ihren kĂŒnstlerischen und technischen Eigenschaften nachgegangen. Die fragilen Kunstwerke, die untersucht werden, wurden sowohl fĂŒr den Export nach Europa als auch fĂŒr den Verkauf in China selbst produziert. Sie sind von grĂ¶ĂŸter Bedeutung fĂŒr die visuelle Kultur Chinas und legen Zeugnis vom intensiven kulturellen und kĂŒnstlerischen Austausch zwischen China und dem Westen ab.

Mit BeitrÀgen von Thierry Audric, Kee Il Choi Jr., Patrick Conner, Karina H. Corrigan, Elisabeth Eibner, Patricia F. Ferguson, Lihong Liu, William H. Ma, Alina Martimyanova, Christopher L. Maxwell, Rupprecht Mayer, Jessica Lee Patterson, Michaela Pej?ochovå, JérÎme Samuel, Hans Bjarne Thomsen, Jan van Campen, Rosalien van der Poel
