including bold colors, European brushwork, perspective, and tendencies
toward abstraction idea to China.
In 1949 under the leadership of Mao Zedong (Tse-Tung), painting and the
decorative arts were infused with political content. The actual styles of
painting often draw on the advances of the post-Ching schools, but the
subject matter includes the themes extolling socialist reconstruction.
