Assistant professor of art history Natalie Phillips joined the Alliance for a luncheon on February 11, 2015 to speak about Contemporary Asian Art and its historical roots. Dr. Phillips has a Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Art History and Religious Studies and a PhD in Visual Studies, and has been a professor at Ball State since 2009. She became interested in Contemporary Asian Art while she served as a teacher\u2019s assistant for a yearlong survey of Asian Art in graduate school.<\/p>\n

Dr. Phillips spoke of artists from three different areas of Contemporary Asian Art: India, China, and Japan. The artists from each of these nations touch on topics such as westernization, identity, history, and transnationalism.<\/p>\n

\"Jamini<\/a>

Jamini Roy,
Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, 1945<\/p><\/div>\n

Indian contemporary art brings forth the very cartoonish and abstract characteristics of traditional Indian folk art. Contemporary Indian Artist Jamini Roy<\/span><\/a> adopted the techniques seen in Indian folk art as well as the flat, un-modulated features of the 19th<\/sup> century Jaipur School.<\/p>\n

\"Jaipur<\/a>

Jaipur School
Ten Incarnations of Vishnu, 1825-75
From the DOMA collection<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When you compare his work Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana <\/em>with the Ten Incarnations of Vishnu <\/em>created by the Jaipur School, you begin to see the inspiration Roy has from Indian native traditions.<\/p>\n

The bright and vivid color you see in Indian art is present in many aspects of Indian culture, including the street markets where artist Anish Kapoor<\/span><\/a> drew inspiration for his work.<\/p>\n

\"Anish<\/a>

Anish Kapoor,
As if to Celebrate, I Discovered a Mountain, 1981<\/p><\/div>\n

As if to Celebrate, I Discovered a Mountain <\/em>shows Kapoor\u2019s interpretation of the pyramids of color pigment sold in the Indian street markets. These colored pigments are also used in the Holi Festival, which is held every year to celebrate spring, love, and color.\u00a0Learn more about the Holi Festival here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Contemporary Chinese art touches on the subjects of transnationalism and the negotiation of identity. Art students in China are typically forced to choose between studying traditional Chinese painting (Guohua) and western style of painting (Xihua), which can cause artists to struggle with their identity.<\/p>\n

\"Wilson<\/a>

Wilson Shieh,
Ceramics Series, 2002<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Bowl<\/a>

Bowl with Children, 16th century, from the DOMA collection<\/p><\/div>\n

Wilson Shieh\u2019s<\/span><\/a> Ceramics Series <\/em>speaks to the struggle contemporary Chinese artists may face with the concept of identity. This series shows figures attempting to connect to the past through the use of traditional Chinese objects, but are failing to identify with their historical background. For example, the figure to the left is using a traditional Chinese porcelain bowl as an umbrella.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Ai<\/a>

Ai Weiwei, Painted Vessels, 2006-2012<\/p><\/div>\n

The art of contemporary China also speaks to politics and the battle artists face with the censorship of their government. The Chinese government has been known to kill, jail, and excommunicate artists that criticize the actions of dictator Mao Zedong.<\/p>\n

\"Chinese<\/a>

Chinese Ritual Wine Vessel with Lid,
206 BCE – 200 CE
From the DOMA collection<\/p><\/div>\n

Ai Weiwei<\/span><\/a>, for example, was beaten and had his passport taken away by the government for his controversial work as an artist.\u00a0Painted Vases <\/em>is one example of how Ai Weiwei has rebelled against his government. Dr. Phillips explains that, \u201cHe painted over these ancient Chinese vessels, essentially ruining important pieces of history, but he also created a new life for these old objects.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Takashi<\/a>

Takashi Murakami, Mr. D.O.B. cute<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In contemporary Japanese art, we see something called \u201cthe cute phenomenon\u201d also known as Kawaii culture. This movement was a response to the bombings of WWII, and Dr. Phillips explained that, \u201cJapan was so traumatized by the bombings, they retreated into childlike nostalgia.\u201d\u00a0These cute images also have a scary side, a trait that you can see in Takashi Murakami\u2019s Mr. D.O.B.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Takashi<\/a>

Takashi Murakami, Mr. D.O.B. scary<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Chiho<\/a>

Chiho Aoshima, Apricot<\/p><\/div>\n

Murakami is also known for coining the term \u201csuperflat,\u201d which refers to the very flat and cartoonish characteristics of digital Japanese art, Anime<\/span><\/a> \u00a0is an example of this \u201csuperflat\u201d type of art. Chiho Aoshima\u2019s Apricot<\/em> is an example of contemporary Anime that draws inspiration from traditional Japanese paintings.<\/p>\n

When asked about the struggle some have with appreciating contemporary art like anime and other digital forms of art, Dr. Phillips said, \u201c\u2026it is epic and beautiful and has all the elements of the fine arts. Art is changing so much and I think it\u2019s important to be open to new media, new ideas, and new ways for artists to express themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n
