Summary
Traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy is a manifestation of traditional Chinese art which mainly includes calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting. Western modern and contemporary art is roughly divided into two major stages of development. One is the modernist period which mainly refers to the half a century time that starts from the post-impressionism since 1870 to abstract expressionism. The Second period is contemporary art which starts from 1960 to modern times, known as postmodernism. With the development of the times, western modern and contemporary art has gradually entered our lives. The combination of Chinese and Western education models has been a major trend emphasizing the individuality of students as well as basic modeling which led to a sharp contrast with the realism and modernism in the past. The rationality of Western modern and contemporary art and the great wisdom of the traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy give us a better of life
