Research on chinese oil painting in the urban context of the 20th and 21st centuries

Abstract

This research aims to explore the evolution and characteristics of Chinese oil painting within the urban contexts of the 20th and 21st centuries. The study seeks to understand how urbanization has influenced the themes, techniques, and cultural significance of oil painting in China, and how these artworks reflect the socio-political and economic changes of the period. The study is significant as it bridges the gap between art history and urban studies, providing a comprehensive analysis of how urban environments have shaped and been represented in Chinese oil painting. This research contributes to the broader understanding of the interplay between art and urbanization, offering insights that are valuable for both academic and practical applications in cultural studies and urban planning.
