| description | Chinese red refers to a key visual symbol of the multiethnic Chinese nation.
From naming to local color preference, the visual experience accumulation
in Chinese red lies not just in the solitary and fossilized historical relics, but
in a ceaseless and dynamic process of formation, recognition, conversion and
transmission. Moreover, the symbolic constitution and ethnic identi cation
of Chinese red exempli es historical accomplishments in local exchanges
of artifacts, technologies, systems, and outlooks with foreign partners.
Therefore, as part of the country’s cultural heritage, Chinese red also
encompasses two aspects, cultural integration based on its identification and
artistic productivity with a focus on di erentiation. |
