Hardback. Condition: New. This book contains analysis of different domains of contemporary art in China seen through the lens of the epistemological changes described in China Pluperfect I: Epistemology of Past and Outside in Chinese Art. It first looks at the concept of "ink art," describing how it meant different things to different people in the former colony and how these different meanings came to determine certain institutional choices made at the beginning of the 21st century. The following chapters are dedicated to issues related to the urban and rural contexts for art creation in Mainland China and Hong Kong. One chapter observes the ups and downs of the representations of cities in the history of the People's Republic of China and how they have defined a certain idea of culture. Another looks at how Chinese cities have been exceptional centers of art creations over the last thirty to forty years through the example of Shenzhen where a vibrant art scene, albeit closely connected to Hong Kong which has become a major art hub in the last two decades, has developed. The following is dedicated to the changing fortunes of art making in the countryside, observing how institutions in the Mainland and in Hong Kong have supported these practices very differently.Frank Vigneron finally considers how the different speeds of globalization, slow in the past and fast today, have determined some of the issues of past and outside in the present, particularly in the context of socially engaged art in both the Mainland and Hong Kong.…

Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Oversized hardcover, shipping weight over 1kg, lix + 315 pages, colour illustrations, NOT ex-library. Missing the front blank endpaper. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Boards show gentle rubbing to the edges. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This is the first academic attempt to stop treating "Chinese Art" as one giant, monolithic block. Frank Vigneron argues that Hong Kong art is its own animal, distinct from the nationalistic definitions of mainland China. He uses the philosophical "heavy machinery" of Deleuze and Guattari - specifically the idea of Deterritorialization - to explain how Hong Kong artists take traditional Chinese elements, strip them of their original "territory" or meaning, and rebuild them into something hybrid, global, and uniquely Cantonese. - Not a Survey, but a Deep Dive: As the publisher notes, Vigneron isn't trying to list every artist in the city; instead, he uses the work of eighty specific artists to prove his point. - The "Body without Organs": He looks at how Hong Kong art functions like a "Body without Organs" - a system that is constantly shifting and reconnecting in new, unpredictable ways because it isn't tethered to a single national identity. - Hybridity over Tradition: The book explains why Hong Kong artists are "idiots" (his word in: "Coda: Plasticians Are Idiots") if they try to stay purely traditional. The real power of Hong Kong art lies in its infra-national status - being "Chinese" while simultaneously being something entirely different. It is a dense, high-theory book that is actually a love letter to the city's creative chaos. It's about the "nodes" and "connections" that make the city a unique cultural intersection; for people who want to understand why a piece of ink art in a Hong Kong gallery feels fundamentally different from one in Beijing or London.…

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris 2010. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Broché collé. Format in-4°. ----- 494 pages. ********************** "" . Ouvrage d'esthétique comparée, Académiciens et lettrés se refuse de considérer "toute" la théorie picturale chinoise mais bien de la restituer dans une historicité qui a souvent manqué aux ouvrages comparatistes traitant de la théorie dans la peinture en chine. C'est ainsi le 18 e siècle, période d'échanges entre l'Europe et la Chine, qui a été choisi pour opérer cette comparaison en utilisant des traités bien précis et dont le choix est justifié au cours des analyses offertes dans ce livre. Académiciens et lettrés tente de retrouver, bien au delà du geste artistique dans les deux mondes, les sources de similarité et de différences qui ont été trop souvent ignorées puisqu'il est encore malheureusement parfois de bon ton de méconnaître la peinture chinoise de la fin de la période impériale. Mais c'est aussi dans la continuité que cette étude comparative s'inscrit et l'auteur s'intéresse ainsi à l'art moderne et contemporaine en Chine et aux raisons pour lesquelles il peut parfois sembler très proche des arts plastiques occidentaux. En abordant des sujets qui vont de la philosophie à l'esthétique en passant par le traitement des arts visuels, qu'ils soient cultivés ou "populaires", c'est donc à tout amateur d'art que cet ouvrage s'adresse.
