Answer:
What the similarities and differences in the characteristics of art in China, Japan and Korea?
•The arts in China, Japan and Korea are very close to each other. They all have paintings, all on fabrics, on paper and on ears. They have knotting paper folding, paper cutting, and calligraphy, too.
•They are both really close, and Korean and Japanese art is part of the Sinosphere and has been highly influenced by China.
•If you don't know much about them, they all look the same, particularly if there are no people or landmarks portrayed, such as a decorative porcelain bowl, and they all use many of the same ideas, such as dragons, goats, cranes, Buddhist symbols, stylized lions, kirins, pagodas, lotus flowers, cherry blossoms, and all sorts of stuff.
•Of course, if there are people represented, then regional fashions will automatically tell you the culture they're from. And there's writing, so that's still a really easy way to know which culture it's coming from.
•Chinese art also represents idiosyncratic Chinese stories, themes, values, thoughts, and tastes. Popular distinctive patterns include Ruyi, flies, lingzhi mushrooms, Chinese zodiac, Jade, Chinese gods, certain colour variations, certain subjects paired together, and certain items and shapes.
•Bonsai originated in China as a penzai, then spread to other areas of Asia, and is now cultivated by experts in China.
•With the exception of bonsai, Japanese art rarely makes use of these things. The dragons look distinctively Japanese, so do the humans.
•Japanese also uses things like turtles, which are considered a negative symbol in China, and they also love other species, such as crustaceans and koi fish. Japanese art is also fond of chrysanthemums, zig zags and abstract shapes.
•You can also see Japanese mythology and mythical creatures peculiar to Japanese society. There are lots of supernatural creatures in the typical Japanese culture.
•As far as Korean art is concerned, it is more uncommon, but it still has its own idiosyncrasies, motifs and history, and the Korean dragons look different, and the tigers look different.
