The Development And Exploration Of Realist Oil Painting In Contemporary China And Russia

Abstract

This article explores the development of realism painting in contemporary China and Russia, as well as the exchange and cooperation between the two countries under equal conditions. The focus is on analyzing the development and exploration of realism oil painting in the new era of China and Russia. This includes the formation of the realism painting tradition in Russia, the different positions of socialist realism painting in Eastern and Western societies due to differences in worldviews and historical periods, the transformation of realism painting in the new era of China and Russia, and the exchange and cooperation under equal conditions. It particularly emphasizes the experiences and lessons of the development and changes in realism oil painting in China during the turn of the century. With China's economic reforms and comprehensive openness, the influence of Western modernist painting trends has led to a shift in aesthetic preferences in China. Moreover, the trust crisis triggered by the dissolution of the Soviet Union has led to a comprehensive critique of realism and socialist realism in both China and Russia. Artists and theorists from both countries are actively reflecting on the process of conveying and receiving realism and socialist realism painting between the two countries, seeking a healthy development pattern for painting in the new era of China and Russia.
