Flying Pigeon Posted November 13, 2008 at 11:57 AM Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 at 11:57 AM Hi, Know of any books about Western Art written in Chinese? I'm particularly interested in reading about Impressionism. I'm also interested in documentary films about art as well. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

liuzhou Posted November 13, 2008 at 01:29 PM Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 at 01:29 PM I don't know about films, but Xinhua Bookstores all across the country have books on western art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roddy Posted November 14, 2008 at 02:46 AM Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 at 02:46 AM You should also be able to find some by searching on amazon.cn and dangdang.com. I'd imagine at least some of what's available will have been translated from English - maybe not what you're looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tianjinpete Posted November 16, 2008 at 02:18 PM Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 at 02:18 PM Not sure if this is the sort of thing you are looking for, but my campus library has a copy of the Chinese translation of Umberto Eco's History of Beauty [美的历史] ... Has tons of images with captions ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
