1/2 The Culture Show : The Art Of Chinese Painting

• The Culture Show 2013
First broadcast: 23 Oct 2013.
The ancient art of Chinese painting is one of the oldest continuous artistic traditions in history.
Kate Bryan, former Hong Kong resident and the Fine Art Society's head of contemporary, travels to China to find out more about this tradition, a journey which coincides with a once-in-a-lifetime exhibition at London's Victoria & Albert Museum, 'Masterpieces of Chinese Painting'. In China, Kate learns about the golden age of Chinese landscape and discovers why ink is still favoured over paint. She also learns how the country's unique aesthetic was heavily influenced by age-old standards of class and politics.

Thanks, probably the best art report I had watched. For the first time in my life I really learned what art really means though I had purchased and watched thousands of European art documents and documentaries.

@14:32 - 'the cranes descending to the sky above the Forbidden City' - I thought the Song Dynasty was not based in Beijing!!??

[@barrymoore4470]

It wasn't. Kaifeng was the capital under the Song, until the regime fled south under Jurchen incursions and established itself at Hangzhou. The palace compound in any case might have been referred to as "Forbidden City", though I find no confirmation of this for either Kaifeng or Hangzhou.

[@chp763]

What is the name of the song at the start

[@sampearson8567]

Thank you so much for uploading this!

[@mikethebloodthirsty]

This channel reminds me of how good the BBC was on culture. I bet it's not like that now...

[@josephmead8325]

Could somebody please help me?? I'm trying to find the name of the piano music that starts at 5:44; I KNOW I've heard it before and it's driving me crazy!!!

Puting out a request for this video to be captioned properly (auto-generated is not 'proper'), while it won't be captioned by the time my assignment is due, it could be ready for the next student who needs to use this video and are deaf/etc.

[@ManhHungPham3003]

A fact: Emperor 宋徽宗 /Sòng Huī Zōng/ is a talented artist, but a terrible emperor. He was the main reason behind the downfall of the Song dynasty, he himself and nearly his whole royal family were captured alive. He were repeatedly humiliated and died a broken man, only after witnessing the horror occuring to his family: his sons, uncles and nephews were slaved and killed; his wives aunts nieces and daughters were turned into whores and raped to death. Never in China history even up till now had a disgrace of such altitude fallen on a royal family. There is a saying that Huī Zōng was so talented that he could do anything except being an emperor.
