Abstract British art critic Roger Fry holds a global artistic critical perspective. He advocates a critical approach which perceives emotion and thought of artistic works by soul in order to get insight into inner life experience and significance of works. Such a critical approach is similar to traditional Chinese categories of Zhi Ren Lun Shi(the precondition of criticism is to know the world and the author) and Yi Yi Ni Zhi(the critical aim is to perceive emotion and thought through soul)， which is fully presented in Fry’s Chinese and European art criticism. Fry’s contribution to art criticism is of two aspects： to advance to aesthetic criticism from Dilthey’s literary criticism， Ruskin’s moral criticism and Pater’s impressionist criticism， and to push forward the blending of traditional and contemporary arts and world arts.
