2 These “three prominences,” orginally applied to the revolutionary new operas, were prominence to positive characters, among them prominence to heroic characters, and among heroic characters prominence to the most heroic character. The attempted forcing of these and other ideas on traditional-style painting is discussed in Han Su-yin, “Chung-kuo hua t'an ch'un i nung” [Spring in the Chinese Painting World], Ch'i-shih nien-tai (The Seventies), No. 4 (1977), pp. 19–26.

3 The two standard English language works on painting in the People's Republic are Sullivan, Michael, Chinese Art in the Twentieth Century (Berkeley: Univ. of California Press, 1959)Google Scholar; and Hajek, Lubor, Contemporary Chinese Painting (London: Spring Books, 1961). Neither deals with anything after the mid-1950s.Google Scholar
