本文簡要回顧二十世紀以來策展、圖錄編寫與中國繪畫史研究、教學之密切關係。特別在美國，於傳統中國繪畫逐漸成為現代藝術史研究對象的初始階段，博物館策展人與院校教學人員經常互相合作。此時博物館對中國繪畫的收藏、展覽圖錄的出版，對大學院校中中國繪畫史的研究、教學有著重大貢獻。本文以幾本對中國繪畫史研究有深遠影響之圖錄的編寫情形為例，說明院校與博物館跨界合作在研究與培育人才方面已產生的效果，並指出將來院校與博物館分工日益分明之趨勢的可能缺失。

This article reviews the interlocking relationships of curating, catalog writing, research, and teaching in the field of history of Chinese painting from the twentieth century onward. Especially in the United States, when traditional Chinese painting gradually became a subject in the study of modern art history, museum curators and university teaching staff collaborated frequently. During this initial phase, the collecting of Chinese painting and publishing of exhibition catalogs in museums contributed tremendously to the research and teaching of the history of Chinese painting in universities. This article uses the compilations of several influential exhibition catalogs in the study of the history of Chinese painting as examples to demonstrate the fruitful results in research and fostering talents created by the collaboration between universities and museums, through which this article also intends to point out the possible drawbacks of the current development of creating a clear division between university and museum.
