The Impact Of Two World Outlooks Of Chinese Painting Theory

This article is the study on the relationship between Chinese ancient thought and Chinese ancient painting theory. The author considers that "Bi", a manner of description in shijing , is the source of the "scientisin"; "Xing" is the source of the "thinking of human culture", upon which Chinese ancient painting theory is based." Bi" is embodied by "Politeness" in the later text named lunyii, and expressed in the notion of "form-matter" in zhuangzi, and is most stressed in zhouyi. In Han dynasty , "scientism"is the main stream in philosophy. Zhouyi typifies the "scientisin". As a basic understanding of painting , the idea "Duidai" led to the theory of "Xiangxing" and another theory "to learn from the nature outside, to get muse from the heart inside" which is a primary notion of creating. "Li" forms the standard for valuing painting because "Law" was emphasized. "Qi"and "Shen" form the standard of tasting painting because "material basis" and the notion of "form-matter" were emphasised ."Xing" is embodied by "to love others" in hiiiyn. "Ren" means "to love others by Politeness",it's the core thought in httiyn . Then, "Xing" is embodied by the notion of "Form" and "dream" in zhuangzi, and then in the latter Chinese Buddhism. Buddhism influences painting theory in respect to the thought of identity between poet and painting by the notion of "Jingjie" or "Kong", and in relation to the thought of Dongqichang's "Huachan" by the notion of "Yuan".
