This book tells the story of the simultaneous development of artistic techniques, styles and ideas across East Asia, South Asia and Southeast Asia, exploring the ways these regions were often dynamically interconnected with each other, and with places beyond Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  It covers the full breadth of Asian art history, with almost 500 artworks from China, Japan, Korea, South Asia and Southeast Asia; including areas often under-represented in other books on the subject, such as Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Tibet, Nepal and Mongolia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  Authors Lee and Hutton are active teachers, writers and speakers who engage with art history as a progressive field that promotes cross-cultural understanding. In this book, they situate Asian art in the context of art history globally, with 12 'Seeing Connections' features drawing themes and comparisons with art from many other parts of the world. The authors' approach encourages students to analyse and think about Asian artworks as a way of exploring ideas about gender and  sexuality, personal and national identity, migration and diaspora, and anthropogenic climate change.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUNTS BOOKSHOP LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45782254846192,"sku":"9780500094167","price":70.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0514\/8635\/9739\/files\/9780500094167.jpg?v=1713470314","url":"https:\/\/huntsbookshop.live\/products\/9780500094167","provider":"Hunt's Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
