Contemporary Asian art is a phenomenon in the twenty-first-century international art world.
Art
made in Asia or by Asian artists since the 1990s has become a dynamic
and hugely exciting sphere of interest, universally acknowledged and
appreciated by collectors, critics and curators.
This
authoritative, wide-ranging book surveys the contemporary art of Asia,
examining key issues and themes: art’s relationship to history and
tradition, its engagement with politics, society and the state, its
exploration of consumerism and popular culture, and its interplay with
the urban environment.
Artists range from established names to emerging practitioners, and over 230 sumptuous illustrations
capture the full scope of their practice, from calligraphy, painting,
sculpture and photography to performance, installation, video and
internet art.
Complete with comprehensive artist biographies,
this book is both a superb critical overview and the consummate visual
reference. Rich in context, and concluding with a look at the future, it
will be the definitive volume on the subject and essential reading for
students, specialists and anyone fascinated by a truly remarkable, newly
emerging field.
