ONLINE ART-RELATED LECTURES WITH OUTSIDER ART PROFESSIONS
What is it?
The lecture series aim to break down stereotypes of what it is to be defined as art, or the art world or art history, the guest speakers all have a story to tell that will board the audience’s understanding of the art ecosystem. Instead of giving lectures on a specific topic to deliver solid knowledge, the speakers will describe their art-related life/research experience, in order to give the audience a fresh look at the art world and understand it from another angle.

The lecture focuses on Gustav Klimt, who is an iconic and leading artist of the early 20th century in Vienna. Klimt is famous for applying ornaments from various cultures to his works. It also embodies in his later career, which Klimt used an extraordinary strategy that he incorporated Chinese patterns into figure paintings. Three issues of this theme will be laid out in this talk. In the beginning, clarifying the pictorial sources and meanings of the Chinese patterns that Klimt referenced in his later paintings. Then tracing how he was able to access these Chinese objects. In the end, analyzing how Chinese patterns accorded with Klimt’s artistic pursuit and their significance to the paintings’ owners. The research provides a new angle of transcultural art history research.
