The Great Image Has No Form, or Through Painting to the Non-Object
14.99 €
The book by the outstanding French sinologist François Jullien, professor of philosophy at the Sorbonne and director of the Marcel Granet Institute, is a comparative analysis of European and Chinese painting. According to the author, Chinese painting is a genuine philosophy of life, which, unlike European art, does not strive for objectivity and does not want to be an open "window to the world" intended for the only true point of view. The absence of form in the great images of Chinese art means continuous movement and the flow of forms into each other, erasing the clear outlines of things and leveling the boundary between the seeing eye and the world.
