Abstract
This paper intends to explore the achievements and characteristics of British art critic Roger Fry's research on Chinese classical art based on a review of his aesthetic exploration and his relationship with Chinese art. The study proposes that Fry successfully integrated the spirit of Chinese art into the discourse of formal aesthetics by using formal analysis and the Burlington Magazine as a platform, thereby promoting the development of the Western modernist art movement. As a typical case study of the global flow of modernism, Fry's affinity with Chinese art has strongly demonstrated the unique role of Chinese classical art aesthetics in the development of global modernism.
