Introduction
Professor Paul GLADSTON will critically examine intertextual translations between the visual cultures of China and Europe since the 17th century - including in the fields of garden design, architecture and painting. It will be argued that the emergence of a recognisably modern and contemporary art in the Sinosphere is the product of continuing transcultural relays that dis-/continue - uphold and productively disrupt - localized Chinese and European cultural traditions and identities.
