This book, grounded in a broad cross-regional and transcultural perspective, explores the cultural contexts, generative mechanisms, artistic forms, and ontological characteristics of art globally. It examines the complex interactions between diverse cultures and artistic traditions, offering insights into how these relationships have shaped artistic expression throughout history. The book is organized into three key sections.The Methodological Perspectives section highlights an integrated transcultural approach to art history, merging Eurasian art histories to present a holistic view. Ornament, Object, and Material Culture focuses on micro-level case studies within material culture, particularly along the Silk Road, revealing how foreign decorative styles and motifs merged with local traditions over time. The final section, Book Reviews, evaluates recent, influential publications in transcultural art history and cultural studies.As the first book globally to explicitly identify itself as a study of the Transcultural History of Art, it presents groundbreaking research that moves beyond traditional, nation-based narratives of art history. It introduces innovative methodologies and offers detailed case studies demonstrating the practical application of transcultural approaches, contributing to a deeper understanding of global artistic exchanges and the shared construction of human cultural heritage.
