UFSP Asien und Europa in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Kunsthistorischen Institut – Abteilung Ostasien und dem Asien-Orient-Institut – Ostasienwissenschaften der Universität Zürich
The main goal of the symposium is to rethink the exchange of landscape culture between China and Europe in the 16th-18th centuries using an ‘entangled landscapes’ approach. By using this term, we do not understand the Chinese-European exchange of landscape culture as a mere artistic exchange between two isolated ‘islands’. Rather, we consider the cross-cultural landscape representations being used to manifest and perform interactions among different cultures, religions, and powers within their cultural, social and political contexts. Through this symposium, we will seek not only a more thorough understanding of the exchange of landscape culture, but also a deeper understanding of the formation of cultural identities in China and Europe, and the relations between China and Europe during the 16th-18th centuries.
