Since the early 1950s, Chinese art has undergone its most profound metamorphosis, evolving from humble realism to socialist realism, from revolutionary art to critical realism, and then to the avant-garde movement, and finally to globalized Chinese art. With a hybrid mix of Chinese philosophy, imported but revised Marxist ideology, and Western humanities, Chinese artists have created an alternative approach to contemporaneity, after a great ideological and aesthetic transition in the 1980s. This book, written from the perspective of an activist, critic, and historian who grew up prior to and participated in the great transition, and then researched and taught the subject, will investigate the evolution of Chinese art in modern and contemporary times. The volume will be a comprehensive and insightful history of one of the most sophisticated and unparalleled artistic and cultural phenomena in the modern world.
