THE AESTHETIC DIMENSION OF YUNNAN CANGYUAN ROCK ART

Abstract

This research takes the rock paintings of Cangyuan, Yunnan as its subject of study. Based on the framework of art theory and employing various research methods, it systematically explores the aesthetic forms, imagery expression, and artistic dimensions of the Cangyuan rock paintings. Furthermore, it demonstrates the multidimensional value of these paintings from the perspectives of culturology, design studies, and fine arts, while proposing practical suggestions such as semantic decoding of symbols and contemporary applications. This research not only provides a new theoretical framework for the systematic interpretation of the Cangyuan rock paintings but also offers methodological references for the study of prehistoric art and the revitalization of cultural heritage.
