About

Objectifying China is part of UMAG's Digital Chapbook series. Designed using the Getty's open-source publishing environment Quire, each digital volume highlights UMAG's permanent collection and ongoing exhibitions.

Text for this volume was excerpted from curator Ben Chiesa's essay in the UMAG publication Objectifying China: Ming and Qing Dynasty Ceramics and Their Stylistic Influences Abroad.
