美国大都会艺术博物馆中国书画展研究(1973—2023)

Research on Chinese Painting and Calligraphy Exhibitions in the Metropolitan Museum of Art(1973-2023)

美国大都会艺术博物馆作为“亚洲之外最大的中国艺术展区”50年来举办了多场中国书画展,为海外中国艺术研究补充了新内容。围绕大都会博物馆中国书画展的相关研究,不仅丰富了海外中国书画史视觉链,而且考察了中国书画研究在西方的学术坐标。总体看来,作为海外中国艺术展,大都会博物馆以“收藏收藏家”的思路,形成了“百科全书式”的收藏,并以“中国书画展”为载体进行文化诠释,阐释了中国艺术的美学特征、艺术规律以及作品背后的社会文化意义等,是跨时空、跨文化互动与互鉴的重要案例,塑造了海外中国书画的艺术形象。

The Metropolitan Museum of Art,as the“largest Chinese art exhibition area outside of Asia”,has held numerous Chinese painting and calligraphy exhibitions for 50 years,providing new content for the study of Chinese art overseas.The study of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s exhibition of Chinese painting and calligraphy not only enriches the visual chain of the history of Chinese painting and calligraphy overseas,but also examines the academic coordinates of the study of Chinese painting and calligraphy in the West.Overall,as an overseas Chinese art exhibition,the Metropolitan Museum of Art has formed an“encyclopedic”collection with the mindset of“collecting collectors”,and it used the“Chinese painting and calligraphy exhibition”as a carrier for cultural interpretation,elucidating the aesthetic characteristics,artistic laws,and social and cultural signifi cance behind Chinese art.It is an important case of cross-time and cross-culture interaction and mutual learning,shaping the artistic image of overseas Chinese painting and calligraphy.
