Abstract

Since the 20th century, copying has been weakened in the teaching of Chinese art, especially in sculpture teaching. Too much emphasis on sketching makes the learning process long and complicated. Teaching is an organized activity of transferring cultural knowledge, through which the process of human cognition can be greatly shortened. Copying, as an effective means of art teaching, has played an important role in art education in the East and West. Through copying, students can learn from the excellent skills of predecessors, find a pattern suitable for their own personality, control and grasp the changing visual world. Specialization of objects on the basis of generalization provides a modified basis for the development of technology.
