- catalog abstract ""China's visual arts in the twentieth century have responded with great vitality to the momentous changes brought by the modern experience. Many Chinese artists have investigated foreign styles, genres, and schools of sculpture and painting with the aim of revitalizing the nation's visual culture, but ink painting has not been eclipsed and the inherited language of the Chinese brush has been extended in exciting new ways." "Modern Chinese Art explores the interactions of the two traditions, Chinese and Western, as Chinese painters and sculptors have attempted to address the social and cultural effects of modernism. Accompanied by high-quality reproductions of original art works, the text treats the works of Chinese artists - whether using traditional media or adopting media and techniques imported from the West - from the late nineteenth century through to the present day. At once a survey of the most influential Chinese visual artists of the century and a provocative exploration of modernity's influences. Modern Chinese Art will appeal equally to readers just discovering this rich artistic world and to those who have already developed an interest in Chinese and Western modern art."--Jacket.".
