The Chinese Buddhist art took on a new state in Sixth century and the later century when it is from the Northern Qi Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty.Gupta art that from India play a significant role in Chinese art. Two schools that Mo Tu Lo and Sarnath in Gupta era of India, as well as Southeast India, had have influence on the Chinese Buddhist sculpture.The line that Gupta art spread into China is still a problem can not be ignored, the style of Gupta art had have influence on Buddhist art style early in Chinese Northwest region.It spread into China with Northwest Silk Road, but this time the main effect on Chinese Buddhist art style was the style of art from Gandhara in northwestern India, the factors of Gupta art was not the mainstream, there are only a few controversial examples. In Northern and Southern Dynasties, especially during the Southern Liang, the sea transportation trade developed, some countries of Hainan have frequently exchanges with China. The statues of Gupta art style spread into China by sea from South Asia and Southeast Asia, Southeast Asia is the part of India cultural circles, so Indian culture have influence on the countries in Southeast, Gupta statues came to China by them. During this period Indian,Gupta art had have influence on Buddha statues in China mostly, the character of Buddha manifest the main features of the body. But Chinese artists is creative in studying the Indian Gupta style statues, such as Sarnath style, it was naked that did not comply with Chinese traditional aesthetic so that it was discarded by the Chinese artists.The focus of this paper is mainly the influence of Gupta style on Chengdu, Qingzhou, Ye Du, and a part of the northern Zhou's Buddhist and the interregional comparison and study. The subjects of studying is primarily statues, but in order to compare there are some examples excess this period. The paper is based on the analysis of the shape style in order to find the links and differences of sculpture between each region and Gupta Sculpture Style,the links and differences among the region.It is important to have an objective analysis of the historical and cultural background between the relations and differences.The influence of the Gupta art style on Chinese painting is not the focus of this paper, but the factors in the process of study Gupta art, Chinese local artists played a major role. Such as Zhang sengyao in the Southern Dynasty, Cao chongda in Northern Qi and other artists. The "bump Law" and "face short and brilliant" of Zhang sengyao and "Cao Yi from water" of Cao chongda have influenced on Chinese painting art and Buddhist art, "Cao Yi water" Buddhist style of Cao chongda is the same as Qingzhou Buddhist Figures.The two Buddha style are called the "zhang-like" and the "Cao-like" by generationsFinally I believe that from Southern and Northern Dynasties to Sui Dynasty formed its own unique style of Buddhist statues because the foreign Gupta art style played an important role in the process, but there are great differences between the previous generation and future generations such as statues of Tang Dynasty. The statues of Gupta art style as an alien culture developed that it integrated to the local Chinese culture.
