Description

Author: Joshua Gong

Contemporary Chinese art has played a significant role in contributing to art globalization; meanwhile, the trajectory of modernization of art in China has not been rendered explicitly.

This book aims to explore the context of Chinese art from the 20th to the 21st century, from three aspects: society, the individual and art forms. It is hoped to inject new vitality into the current obscure art historiography. The complicated issue regarding how to position globalization and national identity is well discussed throughout the book, addressing the hardcore research questions in the field.

This research selects the nine most representative artists: Lin Fengmian, Wu Dayu, Sanyu, Zao Wou-ki, Wu Guanzhong, Su Tianci, Wang Jieyin, Zhang Enli and Chen Yujun.
