Screen Format
About
Refers to historical and contemporary works that use traditional East Asian screen formats. This category encompasses folding screens, Chinese-style standing screens, and artworks mounted in interiors, such as Japanese painted sliding screens (fusuma-e). Though some may have later been mounted as freestanding pictures, these works were originally composed with their architectural context in mind—as functional dividers of space, providing privacy and adorning interiors, or intended to be portable in outdoor environments.
