The study examines Chinese oil painting from the early stages of formation to the
end of the XX — the beginning of the XXI century. Despite the constant interest of art historians and scientists in the question of oil painting of China, it remains insufficiently stu died. The need for a generalization study on this topic is urgent in Eastern European
countries, which in the process of internal transformation in the political, social and cultural spheres make the most of their efforts to study their own arts history, while the world
experience, in particular Chinese one, is very important for the formation of the national
art science science.
To clarify the essence of the influence of the European realistic art traditions on
Chinese painting, in order to reveal the rules of the transformation of Chinese art in the
XXth - the beginning of the XXIst century the dissertation research includes the following
parts:
analysis of the published sources on the chosen subject, which resulted in compr ehensive description of the cultural and historical background of the emergence of oil painting in China; revealing of the role of European influences on the transformation of concepts and the search for artistic forms in Chinese painting from the early stages of its
emergence to the establishing of artistic higher education institutions; the discovery of key
features of the transformations in Chinese oil p ainting after 1949 by the most illustrative
examples, the disclosure of significance of these features for the further development of
Chinese art; the analysis of peculiarities of artistic processes in the late XXth — the beginning XXIst century in Chinese oil painting, demonstration of the similarities and diffe rences of the transformations that took place during the periods of the Cultural Revolution
and the beginning of the reform and openness period; substantiation of the main trends
found in the emergence and development of the stylistic peculiarities inherent in contemporary Chinese painting; research and systematization of the genre variety of the work of
Chinese artists of the XXth - the early XXIst century; identification of techniques, tec hnologies, materials used in Chinese painting of the studied period, tracing of the relatio nship between the introduction of new tools into the artist’s practice and the external infl uences on Chinese art.
The dissertation is a comprehensive detailed study of the influence of European art
traditions on the Chinese ones, given that new persons, facts, documentary materials were
introduced into scientific discourse, and their influence on the painting of China of the
studied period was evidences. The work of the artists who went to study abroad at the beginning of the twentieth century to develop and raise the cultural level of their homeland is
explored in this thesis Finding the new artistic styles, examples of western painting, ado ption of advanced Western technologies and ideas became for old China the necessary steps
in its struggle to keep pace with the progress in the global artistic culture. The important
role of the emergence of artistic educational institutions for establishment of modern Ch inese art is described in the thesis.
Both negative and positive factors of the influence of Soviet art on Chinese art have
been analyzed by the examples of creativity of artists and educational activities of professors, those from China and invitees from the USSR. The advantages of the Soviet model of academic artistic education for the formation of Chinese oil painting school have also
been revealed. The influence of the above model on the development of Chinese art in
general has been analyzed. The peculiarities of the Chinese variant of socialist realism
have been studied and reviewed in the thesis.
The changes in techniques and stylistics of oil painting during the period of the Cu ltural Revolution are revealed. A striking feature of that period was the new artistic i deal,
the romanticism and heroization of both the communist elite and ordinary people in the
plot of the class struggle, the construction of a new communist society, etc. First of all, it
was the result of political pressure, which led to the disfigured beauty and nobility in the
pictures, and rather monotonous scenes and techniques.
The main phenomena of the beginning of the reform and openness period have
been researched in accordance with the proposed typology: the period of "Scar art" and the
emergence of local art succeeded by the emergence of neoclassicism. It is noted that the
main motive of "Scar Art" was a drama of reviewing and changing values, and the resulting condemnation. The "Scar Art" and "local art" period had been followed by the eme rgence of neoclassicism. The so-called "conceptual art" had emerged and quickly became
the mainstream. The works of Chinese neoclassical painting, as well as many styles prior
to it, are also full of Chinese cultural features, or are created regarding them. It has been
found that thanks to that the realistic painting had gained a general public recognition
again.
