What is ink painting?

Ink painting: In Chinese painting, based on "ink painting", it is called ink painting, which makes the picture richer, more vivid and brighter in color than ink painting.

After 1949, with the requirement of "literature and art serve proletarian politics" and the introduction of Shakov oil painting teaching system in the Soviet Union, this dichotomy split from the inside. Take the Central Academy of Fine Arts (1950 was established on the basis of the National Beiping Art College, headed by Xu Beihong) as an example. The direct result of this reform is to divide the original "western painting" into departments (1954 established the printmaking department, and 1956 established the oil painting department). Because the traditional Chinese painting with freehand brushwork as the main body does not have the natural realistic style of classical oil painting, the concept of "Chinese painting" was once ignored after the 1950 s, and then questioned. At that time, critics of traditional painting preferred to use "Chinese painting" rather than "Chinese painting", which was named after the national salvation movement during the Kuomintang rule and could not represent the emerging "country". ? At the same time, for the sake of logical naming equivalence in form, the original "Chinese painting" became "color ink painting department" (founded in 1953, 1958 was renamed "Chinese painting department"). So far, "color ink painting" and "oil painting", "printmaking" and "comic book" have been defined as the same kind of paintings in subject classification.
