Abstract

This research puts light on the art practices of the rare Chinese women landscape artist in three-generation. Chinese landscape ink painting is known as the soul of the Nation’s heritage of China. But the question is why there are few women landscape artists has often been discussed in Chinese landscape art history. Chinese landscape is an art genre traditionally practiced and dominated by male artists. The latest group exhibition at various museums and galleries exhibition proofed that Chinese women’s artist has also performed an important role in the development of Chinese landscape painting. Women artist choose landscape painting as their subject or concept due to various ideal reason such as some want to represent their apparent beauty, representation respect or love to study of the nature, some want to discover unique aesthetic but contemporary women artist wants to use a landscape as a conceptual or as a symbolic language with the combination of new aesthetics, medium or concepts. Women’s landscape painting can be found since early time, still they are not in the mainstream of the art world and have not noticed by serious people. The history of Chinese traditional art has a lack of enough records and archives about the practice of Chinese women landscape artists. However, this paper mainly discussed the challenges and main reasons for the lack of Chinese women landscape artists in history.
