Antique bronze sculpture in Modern Times

Lie Weibu left Seoul in the study of a large number of anthropological data states: "primitive man (author note: refers to people who have original ideas, non-current movement of the 'primitive' definition) did not look like we did to perceive regardless of their consciousness of what the object is shown, it must contain some mysterious property of its inseparable; when the primitive sense of this or that object, he was never the object of this mysterious properties of these separate. The use of the bronze sculpture was limited to the federal nobilities with the atmosphere of high supremacy. Realism of the decoration relative to the Animal Mask, the lack of a mystery, more the sense of reality. Reflected in the understanding, that is to have a clear grasp of the real world.
Zhou is not as traders, as the objective world and the mysterious world into one, but with a clear distinction, in thinking clearly belongs to logical thinking, rather than original thinking. Zhou people's thinking is reflected in its nation-building theory. "Little Bang Week" grams of "Dayi business", Business King Zhou not only did not expect that the Zhou people themselves have also had a profound reflection. The bronze statue has turned into the mark of honor of the master. My students do not have life in the day thinking obviously does not take the Shang Dynasty Zhou Dynasty explained the reasons, the Zhou Dynasty, in theory, need to make some adjustments. Zhou made days but when the demand democracy, that fate will be transferred to form "to Germany with days" thinking.
"To Germany with Day" is to pay attention to reality, the rulers of their own moral concern. This will gradually get rid of the fetters of God, turn our gaze to the real world. So at this time have more realistic basis for decoration, reflects a clear understanding of the real world and grasp. Study that the Spring and Autumn Period, bronze ritual for ritual musical instruments by the people, ancestors of the artifacts gradually degenerated into a wealthy aristocrats in ceremonial occasions, the use of a luxury feast activities, human, life is its new features. A chinese bronze sculpture usually shapes like animals and implies an abundant and affluent life. This is the reality of the Western Zhou period, the result of further attention. Zi was in power, people in the village school where Zheng play together, talk and political gains and losses, so it was suggested that destroyed village school,
By Karl Jaspers in the Spring and Autumn Period (Karl Jaspers) as an important breakthrough thinking and understanding, "Axial Age" (Axial Period). Jakob said, "All this (the Axial Age) chosen by the reflection generated. Consciousness once again aware of their own interests, ideas become its own object the result of this process is unconscious before the acceptance of ideas, habits and environment, are censorship, explore and clean up. axis era, is the result of human self-reflection. Siyang Fangzun or Four Sheep Square Zun(四羊方尊) can be considered as top bronze sculpture among the existed bronze zuns.
 This reflection on the premise that a clear understanding of the objective world, from the perspective of thinking, is the original mode of thinking humans breakthrough, forming a logical thinking, there is no breakthrough in the original thinking, will not usher in its own historical development of the Axial Age, which has been a large number of anthropologists existing studies and surveys prove that primitive peoples. Regardless of its size, shape, decoration, inscription and the casting technique, the china bronze sculpture embodies high artistic attainments.
