The Seventh Annual Asian Art Lecture: Galloping Through Dynasties

Free. Seating is first come, first served. The horse is one of the oldest and most interesting painting subjects in China. From the ancient Zhou dynasty (ca. 1045–771 BC) to the Qing dynasty (1644-1911), the horse, which played an important role in shaping the sociopolitical world of China, has formed an engaging symbolic language. In this program, Dr. Sung will explores the evolution of Chinese horse painting in both its symbolic and its stylistic aspects throughout Chinese history. Please join for a reception following the lecture. This lecture is sponsored by the Cincinnati Asian Art Society.
