Volume 41

Online Access

We are pleased to announce that Ars Orientalis 41 is now available. Starting with former Freer curator Jim Cahill’s Freer Medal presentation, this volume reads like a guided tour of the arts of the East. Authors Kim Besio and Lai-Pik Chan explore Chinese cultural norms and assumptions through artwork, looking to explain ideas of love and insect iconography, respectively. Renowned scholar Nancy Shatzman Steinhardt writes on sixth-century East Asian architecture, looking at religious and funerary art in Japan, China and Korea. Building on the research of Margaret Cool Root (featured in Ars Orientalis 28 and 32), author Jennifer Finn explores issues of kingship in the Achaemenid Empire through a close analysis of inscriptions. Additional articles by Tülün Değirmenci, Leslie Wallace, and Shih-shan Susan Huang round out this issue with thematic focuses on the Ottoman Empire, the Eastern Han, and Song dynasties.

Volume 40

Online Access

From Chinese paintings to Indian caves, Volume 40 of Ars Orientalis takes a wide-ranging look at Asian art history. Four of the issue's eight articles concern painting, investigating the iconography of the sparrow in the art of Tang-Song China (Bo Liu), two different groups of Indian works (Cathleen Cummings and Laura Parodi), and three 17th-century Ottoman manuscripts (Emine Fetvaci). Painted imagery is also the subject of Hsu Wen-Chin's study of the decoration of Chinese porcelain. Robert deCaroli's work examines the function of the visual imagery in the caves of Ajanta and its potential impact on the intended audience. A well-known but poorly understood 17th-century textile, the Marcy-Indjoudjian Cope, has been meticulously studied by Vrej Nersessian. Finally, the Freer Gallery itself is the subject of Ingrid Larsen's study of Charles Lang Freer as a collector of Chinese painting.

Framed by an extensive introductory essay, the volume brings together seven articles addressing various aspects of the movement of cultural forms (dress, landscape, and book illustration, among others) in Europe and Asia during the eighteenth century.

Volume 38

Online Access (vols. 38-39 combined)

Theorizing Cross-Cultural Interaction Among Ancient and Early Medieval Visual Cultures

This groundbreaking volume focuses on critical moments of exchange in the ancient and medieval Mediterranean, Central and Western Asia, and China. Six articles consider a range of sites and media, moving between sweeping analysis of diplomacy, trade, empire, and religion and close study of specific local conditions. Together they help clarify whether and how objects were incorporated into visual cultures. Guest edited by Matthew P. Canepa, the theme of this volume was originally explored in a panel at the 2008 annual meeting of the College Art Association.

Volume 37

Online Access (vols. 36-37 combined)

Current Directions in Yuan Painting revisits the work of Yuan period artists in light of dramatic changes in the field of Chinese art history over the past two decades. Articles by ten distinguished scholars study individual works of art, the historiography of Yuan painting in Chinese intellectual traditions, and recent art history. This volume’s theme grew out of a 2006 conference at the University of Pennsylvania.
