Wang Wei

Wang Wei

M.S. 699 dolaylarında Şanxi Eyaleti'nin Qixian County bölgesinde dünyaya gelen Wang Wei (王維), Tang Hanedanlığı sanat tarihi içerisinde devasa bir figür olarak yükselir; o, müzik, şiir, resim ve siyasi liderliğin kusursuz bir sentezinin yaşayan kanıtıdır. Sadece sanatsal üretimiyle değil, aynı zamanda Chan Budizmi'nin derin felsefi inançlarıyla harmanlanmış ruhuyla da saygı gören Wang Wei, kendi çağının ruhunu temsil eder: entelektüel bir merak ile doğanın güzelliğine duyulan sarsılmaz bir bağlılığın birleşimi.
