The Naked Form in Modern Chinese Art

Ashmolean Museum
Beaumont Street,
Oxford, United Kingdom
Mar 30, 2019 To Sep 15, 2019


Detail: This exhibition presents a varied selection of images of the naked form as depicted by Chinese artists from the 1930s until the present day. The nude is not a traditional subject in Chinese art but was introduced to China by artists who had studied abroad during the first decades of the twentieth century. The exhibition features works by major artists of the twentieth century: Sanyu, Huang Yongyu, Wang Keping, Ding Yanyong, Wilson Shieh, and Qu Leilei.
