Examining the Impressionist-Style Chinese Oil Paintings' Aesthetic and Philosophical Elements through an Interpretive Approach in Implementing Curriculum Model

Abstract

In addressing the notable scholarly gap concerning the aesthetic and philosophical dimensions of Chinese oil paintings in the Impressionist style, this study embarks on an insightful journey to explore and articulate the unique visual and artistic attributes that characterize these works. The primary aim is to thoroughly analyze the aesthetic foundations and philosophical underpinnings of these paintings, thereby shedding light on their cultural and artistic significance. In pursuit of this aim, the study sets forth specific objectives: to dissect the philosophical narratives interwoven in these artworks, to scrutinize their visual and artistic features with a keen eye, and to develop an innovative framework for integrating these artworks into educational settings through an interpretive curriculum model.

Employing a qualitative, interpretive methodology, this research delves deep into the artistic essence of selected Impressionist-style Chinese oil paintings. The approach is meticulously chosen to honor the subjective nature and complex layers of art interpretation, prioritizing a rich epistemological exploration over quantitative analysis. This methodological choice allows for a nuanced understanding of the artworks within their historical and cultural milieus, unraveling their aesthetic intricacies and philosophical depth.
