Special Winter Course
Classical Chinese II:A Rare Linguistic Gem
Tuesdays, Jan 10 - Mar 14
6:30PM-8:30PM
Taught by Ben Wang, Senior Lecturer at China Institute.
Classical Chinese fully manifests the unique characteristic of the visceral language; an uncanny blending of music and painting, whereby the spoken Chinese is music and written Chinese, painting. It is only in classical Chinese that the visceral comes to meet with the cerebral, leading to an enchanted garden of poetry and other fine cultural genres.

Art in a Time of Chaos:Masterworks from Six Dynasties China, 3rd - 6th Centuries
Now Through March 19, 2017
"Exchange is the dynamic that animates [this] inaugural exhibition at China Institute [Gallery]...The show is a jewel, and let me just say up front, I don't know how China Institute Gallery, now 50 years old, does what it does. Season after season, it brings extraordinary treasures to New York...it creates exhibitions that advance scholarship...but also give unalloyed pleasure, partly because the scale is always right." - Holland Cotter, New York Times, November 2016 Continue reading the New York Times Review
Not only was the Six Dynasties period a pivotal link in the historical timeline between the Han and Tang dynasties, but it is increasingly recognized for having laid the foundation for Chinese artistic standards, genres, subjects, and important themes that continue to define Chinese art today. This exhibition presents the artistic innovations and achievements evidenced by recent archaeological findings from both the Southern and Northern Dynasties across four major disciplines:ceramics, sculpture, calligraphy and painting. Each of these disciplines provides a different glimpse into daily and ritual life during this time. Through instability came great artistic innovation, resulting in the emergence of enduring subjects, genres, and themes. This exhibition will highlight these lasting elements of Six Dynasties art, allowing visitors to see and better understand the trajectory of Chinese art that continues to today. Learn More |
