Expanded Course Description
ARH 209 offers a survey of the history of Japanese art from neolithic times to the present, covering a wide range of media and styles. Early pottery traditions, Buddhist art and its ritual context, the aristocratic arts of the Heian court, Zen painting, the tea ceremony, and the prints and paintings of the Floating World are among the topics this survey will address. Historically, the Japanese were often exposed to new and alien ideas, especially from their closest neighbors, China and Korea, and ARH 209 will focus on some of the ways in which Japan adopted and adapted to foreign cultural traditions. In addition to viewing digital images in class, students will also have the opportunity to see a variety of examples of Japanese art firsthand at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum on the UO campus.
