Oriental Art Demonstrates Delicate Eastern Beauty The fascination of Oriental art lies in its delicacy of line accentu ated by color. This idea, presented in lecture-demonstration by Mr. James Kuo, brought a touch of Eastern art to the students, Nov. 20. Art in the Western World as explained by Mr. Kuo is the product of mass design, while, in Chinese art, line takes precedence. A Chinese artist may spend his life perfecting single strokes. Much of this idea of line is based on the Chinese symbols. The fundamental requirements for prospective Chinese artists are the un derstanding of poetry and music, as these arts are embodied in paintings. Poetry is so closely allied with the creation of the painting that a poem is adapted especially for it, or it is the emanation of a poem previously writ ten. The lyric quality of art is in tegrated in the stroke. Of special significance are the ma terials of the artist. Absorbent rice paper and high grade lengths of silk are used instead of Western canvases. These are used because of their adap tability to paints, which are aged for at least 50 years, or until they reach the desired intensity of color. Mr. Kuo, sponsored by Mundelein College, is doing advanced research on techniques of Chinese painting. He has already published two books, Introduction to Chinese Art and Mod ern Art in China.
