Abstract: “Beauty in imagery” is an aesthetic proposition proposed by Mr.Ye Lang in the early 21st century.This proposition is not only an answer to the core question of “what beauty is”,but also a historical refinement of the traditional spirit of Chinese aesthetics and an international dialogue with Western modern aesthetic thoughts.As “a concept of restoration in the theory of survival”,the proposition of “beauty in imagery” not only connects the dialogue between modern Western aesthetics and traditional Chinese aesthetics on the spiritual level of existence,but also enriches and clarifies the humanistic value of aesthetic activities as a way to enhance ones life realm.

Key words: Chinese aesthetics, Western aesthetics, imagism
