SUMMARY:Rhythmic Vitality: Six Principles of Chinese Painting
LOCATION:Kalamazoo Institute of Arts\, 314 South Park Street Kalamazoo\, M
 I 49007
DESCRIPTION:The Six Principles have been described as the most influential
  paragraph ever written on the art of Chinese painting. Xie He\, active ca
 . 500 C.E.\, was a painter and art critic who methodically outlined these 
 sic principles\, sometimes translated as \"techniques\" or \"elements\" of
  painting. They have persisted over 1500 years as criteria for creating\, 
 examining\, and evaluating art in China. The spare language\, utilizing ju
 st four characters to express each of Xie He's points\, has allowed for br
 oad interpretations and sparked debates over translation even well into th
 e 20th century. \n\nThe first and foremost important principle has sometim
 es been poetically translated as \"Rhythmic Vitality\" or \"Spirit Harmony
 \". Without this\, the painter said\, one need look no further. This exhib
 ition will equip visitors to look further and with greater appreciation us
 ing concepts established by one of China's early art critics. Rhythmic Vit
 ality is comprised of works from the collections of the KIA and of Joy and
  Tim Light.
