Happy Lunar New Year from the USC US-China Institute!
Style Matters
Ina Asim, associate professor of history at the University of Oregon, will give a slide lecture that explores the elements of style and the variations found in the gardens of Suzhou, Yangzhou, Sichuan, and Lingnan as a part of the Chinese Garden Lecture Series.
When:
September 21, 2010 7:30pm to 12:00am
Where
Chinese scholars’ gardens are deeply influenced by the elements of style
developed by the Suzhou gentry for their personal retreats. Over time
and in different locations the matrix of these elements has been altered
through adaptations to local conditions and individual predilections.
We will explore the grammar of style elements and the variations in
the gardens of Yangzhou, Sichuan, and Lingnan.
