Japanese Art has been influenced by the invasion of new and alien ideas that get absorbed, imitated and finally, assimilated. The earliest complex art came out of the 7th an 8th centuries. This early art was strongly influenced by Buddhism. In the 9th century Japanese artists turned away from China's influence to develop more native forms. Brush Painting is the preferred art form in Japan. Japanese painting was introduced to western influence in the 1870's from Italian artists.
