The Sui Wo Study Centre (瑞禾學社) locates in Tai Wai (大圍), which is administered by a Catholic institution called "Opus Dei" (主業會).
The Sui Wo Study Centre gathers a group of "elite-minded" actual students and alumni from Tak Sun Secondary School (德信中學), KATSO members (天主教同學會成員) from CUHK or other local universities, Spanish and Filippino exchange students who study at the local universities, and Catholic youngsters who grew up from the parishes and secondary schools in Sha Tin or Tai Po District, to jointly practise a professional mode of apostolic lifestyle with a commitment to their favourite occupations in the secular world.
On 8 and 22 February 2014, the Sui Wo Study Centre invited Vincent Lee Kwun-leung (李冠良) to conduct a Chinese art history lecture for the attendees, which corresponded with the festive atmosphere of Chinese New Year celebration.
The Chinese art masters that Vincent Lee selected for his lecture were:
(1) Li Sixun (李思訓) and Zhou Fang (周昉) from Tang Dynasty
(2) Emperor Song Huizhong (宋徽宗) and Cui Bo (崔白) from Song Dynasty
(3) Wang Meng (王蒙) from Yuan Dynasty
(4) Gong Xian (龔賢) from Ming Dynasty
(5) Shi Tao (石濤) from Qing Dynasty
(6) Xu Beihong (徐悲鴻) from Republican Era
(7) Zhang Daqian (張大千) from Communist Era
One of the important highlights was that, Dr. Peter Herbert (B.A., P.G.C.E., Lic. en Fil. y Let., M. Ed., Ph.D.), Principal of Tak Sun Secondary School (德信中學), was one of the attendees to listen to Vincent Lee's in-depth aesthetic interpretations.
African art has traditionally focused on spirituality and ancestors due to the cultural beliefs in ancestor worship and animism. Art forms commonly use organic and portable materials like wood, ivory, and textiles rather than stone due to the environment and serving purposes like masks in ceremonies. While architecture varies by region, mud-brick construction was prevalent for its practical benefits in the climate. In modern times, African art continues to be shaped by traditional cultural influences but now also engages with global art movements and issues.
The Kamakura period (1180-1333) saw a shift in power from nobility to the warrior class in Japan. The warrior class, known as samurai, gained political power through alliances and marriages, eventually surpassing the traditional aristocracy. Samurai developed an iconic style of armor, helmets, and banners to distinguish themselves in battle. In their private lives, some samurai took up ikebana flower arranging as a hobby and meditative practice, influencing Japanese arts and culture.

Gothic art from 1140-1600 developed in France and emphasized pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and stained glass windows in cathedrals.
This document provides an overview of prehistoric art in Europe from the Paleolithic to Neolithic periods. It discusses key time periods and ideas, including that the earliest works were cave paintings and sculptures from 30,000-4000 BCE. Little is known about their original meaning. Neolithic structures like Stonehenge showed the ability to build elaborate religious monuments. Key works mentioned include cave paintings from Lascaux and Altamira and sculptures like the Venus of Willendorf and Lion-Man of Hohlenstein-Stadel.
The Qin Dynasty which emerged victorious over the 6 other major Kingdoms during “The Warring States” period in China was the first empire that unified what is now roughly modern China. More importantly, it standardized much of the concepts that affected daily life for its citizens, such as money, written language, roads, weights, and measures, and created the basis for the future Chinese role of emperors and the organization of the political structure that continued in its basic form until 1911. It also is credited with some of the greatest public works projects in human history such as the beginning of the Great Wall of China, canal building and irrigation projects, mass production techniques, the Terracotta Warriors of Xian, and a massive mausoleum project for the emperor’s body after death.

Some notable examples include the Temple of Vesta from the Roman Republic in the 1st century BCE, the Ara Pacis altar from 13-9 BCE during the early empire, and the Pantheon's iconic dome structure built under Hadrian in 117-125 CE. Roman architectural styles evolved over this thousand-year time frame, seen in structures like temples, forums, baths, arches and more that incorporated innovative building techniques like vaults and domes.
The Qin Dynasty (221-206 BCE) established China's first empire under Shi Huangdi. It promoted legalism, bureaucratic administration and centralized control. Shi Huangdi ordered the burning of Confucian texts and buried scholars alive. The dynasty collapsed after his death due to oppression and succession struggles. The Han Dynasty (206 BCE-220 CE) established a synthesis of legalism and Confucianism. Emperor Wu strengthened the government and expanded the empire through war and colonization, but struggled against the nomadic Xiongnu. The Han developed a stable bureaucracy and society structured around Confucian family and social values. The Silk Road flourished during this period, facilitating trade and cultural exchange between China and the
The document discusses Roman portraiture and how it originated and developed something unique from Greek art. It notes that while Roman sculptures copied Greek styles, Roman portraits focused on realistic, individual likenesses rather than idealized figures. Republican portraits depicted older statesmen with wrinkles, baldness and flaws to convey wisdom and experience. This "veristic" style developed from the tradition of death masks. Portraits were used for tombs and memorials, showing the value placed on honoring ancestors. The realistic portrait style spread through Roman society and was combined with Egyptian burial practices in painted "Fayum portraits" placed on mummies.
Japanese art has evolved over centuries, originally influenced by Buddhist art from China. During early periods like Nara and Fujiwara, Buddhist sculptures and paintings became popular. The Fujiwara period saw the development of Yamato-e painting traditions.

13. • The early Western Han court simultaneously accepted the philosophical teachings
of Legalism, Huang-Lao Daoism, and Confucianism in making state decisions and
shaping government policy. However, the Han court under Emperor Wu gave
Confucianism exclusive patronage.
• During the Western Han period, grave goods were usually wares and pieces of art
that were used by the tomb occupant when he or she was alive. During the
Eastern Han period, new stylistic goods, wares, and artwork found in tombs were
usually made exclusively for burial.
• The Han Dynasty was known for jade burial suits.

14. • Timber was the chief building material in Han architecture. It was used for grand
palace halls, multi-story towers, multi-story residential halls, and humble abodes.
• Thatched or tiled roofs were supported by wooden pillars, since the addition of
brick, rammed earth, or mud walls of these halls did not actually support the roof.
Stone and plaster were also used for domestic architecture.
• Valuable clues about Han architecture can be found in Han artwork of ceramic
models, paintings, and carved or stamped bricks discovered in tombs and other
sites.

16. • From this time we begin to know about individual artists, such as Gu Kaizhi. Even
when these artists illustrated Confucian moral themes—such as the proper
behavior of a wife to her husband or of children to their parents—they tried to
make the figures graceful.
• Xie He—a writer, art historian, and critic in 5th century China—is most famous for
outlining six points to consider when judging a painting, taken from the preface to
his book, The Record of the Classification of Old Painters.
• The six elements that define a painting are: 1) Spirit Resonance, 2) Bone Method,
3) Correspondence to the Object, 4) Suitability to Type, 5) Division and Planning,
and 6) Transmission by Copying.

17. • Chinese calligraphy is a form of calligraphy widely practiced and revered in the
Sinosphere, which often includes China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.
• The various styles of calligraphy in the tradition adhere to a general
standardization. Chinese calligraphy and ink and wash painting are closely
related; they are accomplished using similar tools and techniques.
• In ancient China, painting and calligraphy were the most highly appreciated arts in
court circles; they were done almost exclusively by amateurs, aristocrats and
scholar-officials who had the leisure to perfect the technique and sensibility
necessary for great brushwork.
• Paper, invented in the 1st century, gradually replaced silk. Original writings by
famous calligraphers have been greatly valued throughout China's history; they
are mounted on scrolls and hung on walls in the same way that paintings are.
• Some of the most famous Chinese calligraphers, including Wang Xizhi, lived
during the Six Dynasties period.
• Wang Xizhi's most famous work is the Lanting Xu, the preface to a collection of
poems written by a number of poets who gathered at Lan Ting, near the town of
Shaoxing in Zhejiang province, and engaged in a game called "qu shui liu shang".

18. • The Six Dynasties generally includes the periods of the Three Kingdoms (220–
280 AD), the Jin Dynasty (265–420), and the Southern and Northern Dynasties
(420–589).
• Although relatively short, the period of the Three Kingdoms has been greatly
romanticized in the cultures of China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.
• The Jin Dynasty was known for its miniature models of buildings used to decorate
the tops of "soul vases", as well as for its celadon porcelain wares.
• Literature was particularly vibrant during the Southern Dynasty and tended to be
flowery and frilly, while Northern Dynasty literature was rougher and more
straightforward. The Chinese arts of poetry, calligraphy, painting, and music also
reached new heights during this time.

20. • From the Tang Dynasty (618–907) onwards, brick and stone architecture
gradually became more common and replaced wooden edifices.
• The earliest examples of this transition can be seen in building projects such as
the Zhaozhou Bridge completed in 605, or the Xumi Pagoda built in 636.
Nevertheless, stone and brick architecture is known to have been used in
subterranean tomb architecture of earlier dynasties.
• The tombs and mausoleums of imperial family members can also be counted as
part of the imperial tradition in architecture. These above-ground earthen mounds
and pyramids had subterranean shaft-and-vault structures that were lined with
brick walls.

river—became prominent features in Chinese landscape art. Distant mountain
peaks rise out of high clouds and mist, while streaming rivers run from afar into
the foreground.
• The Northern Song period (960–1127) was characterized by large, sweeping
landscapes, influenced by political ideals of bringing order to large societal issues.
• In contrast, the Southern Song period (1127–1279) was more interested in
reforming society from the bottom up and on a much smaller scale, and their
paintings similarly reflected smaller, visually closer, and more intimate scenes.
• The imperial courts of the emperor's palace were filled with his entourage of court
painters, calligraphers, poets, and storytellers. One of the greatest landscape
painters of the court was Zhang Zeduan, who painted the original Along the River

25. • Trends in painting styles among the gentry notably shifted from the Northern
(960–1127) to Southern Song (1127–1279) periods, influenced in part by the
gradual embrace of the Neo-Confucian political ideology at court.
• Chinese painting during the Song Dynasty reached a new level of sophistication
with further development of landscape painting. The shan shui style painting—
"shan" meaning mountain, and "shui" meaning river—became prominent features
in Chinese landscape art.
• Southern Song officials were more interested in reforming society from the bottom
up and on a much smaller scale. Hence, their paintings often focused on smaller,
visually closer, and more intimate scenes, while the background was often
depicted as bereft of detail as a realm without substance.
