    KOREAN ART

    INDIAN ART
     Islamic art is not at all restricted to religious art, but includes all the art of the rich and varied
    cultures of Islamic societies as well. It frequently includes secular elements and elements that are
    frowned upon, if not forbidden, by some Islamic theologians.

     There are repeating elements in Islamic art, such as the use of geometrical floral or vegetal
    designs in a repetition known as the arabesque. The arabesque in Islamic art is often used to
    symbolize the transcendent, indivisible and infinite nature of God.

    MIDDLE EASTERN ART


     Indian art features spirals and curvaceous lines, vines and tendrils, round-figured goddesses,
    circular amulets, colored gemstones, arches and domes, haloed deities, crescent moons, and the
    globe of the sun.
     Indian sculptures and paintings depict the diversity, colour and spontaneity of this country and are
    representations of the all-encompassing nature of Indian culture.

    JAPANESE ART
     It respects nature, and the extensive use of quiet and subdued colors is manifested in Korean
    paintings and ceramics. Humor is another characteristic of Korean Art. Bold exaggeration, the
    acceptance of non-symmetrical cubic objects, and unique spatial beauty conveyed by imperfect
    roundness are examples of humor in Korean art.

    Two characteristics of Chinese art:


    1. A love of, and reverence for, Nature.
    2. A strong connection with calligraphy done with brushes ; quite often, the 2 elements are combined.

     A sense of quiet harmony is other characteristic of Korean art, meaning that there is no excess,
    the right materials being selected in scale with the surroundings. With all these characteristics,
    the Korean arts have been imbued with a unique aesthetic sense which depicts beauty with
    honesty and simplicity that is free of artifice.

    PHILIPPINE ART
    Lopez, Cielo Mae A.

     Typically, though not entirely, Islamic art has focused on the depiction of patterns and Arabic
    calligraphy, rather than on figures, because it is feared by many Muslims that the depiction of the
    human form is idolatry and thereby a sin against God, forbidden in the Qur'an.
     The most famous of Indonesian traditional paintings are the Balinese Wayang-style paintings.
    This style of painting flourished on the Indonesian isle of Bali throughout the 13th century.
    Wayang-style paintings are depictions of Wayang theater, staged interpretations of the classic
    Hindu-Javanese texts, such as the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, performed by intricate
    shadow puppets. The paintings are two-dimensional characters from the Wayang performances
    drawn on bark or cloth with earth-toned natural dyes.

     During the 19th century, the use of watercolor paintings increased and the subject matter of
    paintings began to include landscapes, Filipino inhabitants, Philippine fashion, and government
    officials. Portrait paintings featured the painters themselves, Filipino jewelry, and native furniture.
    The subject of landscape paintings featured artists' names painted ornately as well as day-to-day
    scenes of average Filipinos partaking in their daily tasks. These paintings were done on canvas,
    wood, and a variety of metals.

     Figurative painting may cover religious scenes, but normally in essentially secular contexts such
    as the walls of palaces or illuminated books of poetry.

     Japanese artists retain traditional themes and techniques. In the later half of the 19th century,
    Japanese art, which is valued for its simplicity and colorful style, had an impact on other western
    forms of art

    CHINESE ART
     Brush Painting is the preferred art form in Japan. This follows from the use of brushes for writing
    which created a familiarity with brush technique.
