Since 1850, China has undergone urban industrialization, conquest by foreign powers, civil wars, changing governments, and an opening to the international community. This period has also seen atristic experimentation and innovation. Spanning 150 years of artistic production, this book offers an exploration of modern and contemporary Chinese art. Essays show the ways in which Chinese artists have enagaged with modernity, tradition, self-definition, and the adoption and rejection of Western conventions. The book includes Shanghai School paintings, modern calligraphy, commercial art, 1920s and 30s woodblock prints, modern "guohua" (traditional ink and colour paintings), socialist realist paintings, and other contemporary works.
