Began Gap Year Trip Six Years Ago

Hi,

So, I am currently studying in Oz - Multimedia Arts. My next assignment is a an cultural perspective essay. I decided to write on on the relation of travelling and arts. How travelling has influenced the arts throughout time. Well, I guess some things are obvious, but as an academic paper, I will have to back my theories up with references...

Does anyone have good recommendations on non-fiction books on the subject. Would be a great help!! Other references, like websites are appreciated as well

Thank you for your troubles.
Adrian

One thing that comes to mind is the art of ceramics...China and Italy.

Minature art forms from Rajasthan....isn't there a similarity with Persian art.

Art in Cambodia..especially at Angkor is similar to the temple art in India.I saw plenty references for this one. Will see if I have any references in the book I have.
