Chinese art has experienced its most profound metamorphosis since the early 1950s, transforming from humble realism to socialist realism, from revolutionary art to critical realism, then avant-garde movement, and 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 – after a great ideological and aesthetic transition in the 1980s – toward its own contemporaneity though interacting and intertwining with the art of rest of the world. This book will investigate, 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, the evolution of Chinese art in modern and contemporary times. The volume will be a comprehensive and insightful history of the one of the most sophisticated and unparalleled artistic and cultural phenomena in the modern world.

The Body in Contemporary Art presents an international survey of art made since 2000 that takes the body as its focus. Examining such areas as nature and technology, identity politics and the grotesque, writer and critic Sally O'Reilly traces the body's movement from a subject to a live medium of art, and highlights how socio-political and cultural developments, from contemporary scientific breakthroughs to the Russian-Ukranian war, have all had a profound influence on representations of the human form. From painting and sculpture to installation, video art and performance, O'Reilly reveals the myriad ways in which the body has inspired a generation of artists. Featuring the work of both renowned and up-and-coming figures, including Marina Abramovic, Hew Locke, Jenkin van Zyl, Shirin Neshat, Sarah Lucas and Shawanda Corbett, The Body in Contemporary Art shows how the human form continues to be pivotal to our understanding and expression of our place in the universe. International in scope with colour illustrations throughout, this edition has been comprehensively revised, with an updated selection of artists and five new chapters covering topics such as: clothing, work and economics, the nude and illness.

"In Creative Visions, sociologist Hannah Wohl draws on more than one hundred interviews and two years of ethnographic research in the New York contemporary art market, developing a sociological perspective on creativity through the analytic lens of judgment. The artists she encountered range from those trying to land their first solo exhibition to those with several dozens of museum exhibitions. She visited their studios and saw firsthand how they decided which works to leave unfinished, or to destroy, put into storage, or exhibit. She observed the installation of exhibitions in galleries, assisted in selling artwork for a gallery, and followed private collectors around art fairs and VIP collector events. Moments of judgment-whether by artists, curators, dealers, or buyers-led her to uncover that artistic practices are deeply sociological: both because artists' decisions are informed by their interactions with others, and because artists' decisions about their work affect the objects which circulate through the social world. Artists recognize that exhibitors and collectors prefer artists whom they deem to display a clear signature style. Wohl also explores judgment in art as part of the creative process. Evaluation, she says, is both a way that one judges how good a work is, and how one makes decisions about producing work. Our understanding of creative work rests on these highly social dynamics, Wohl shows, shedding new light on the production of cultural objects and prestige"--

It has since amassed one of the most definitive public collections of contemporary Southeast Asian art, and this guide to its contemporary collection presents a snapshot of current artistic production in the most dynamic of regions, with its heady fusion of stylistic beauty and urgent social commentary. Spanning the Southeast Asian and Asia region, the collection includes seminal works from artists like Tang Da Wu, Suzann Victor, Roberto Felco, Nge Lay, Jun Nguyen-Hatsushiba, Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook, Agus Suwage, Entang Wiharso, Yee I-Lann, Zulkifi Yusoff, Nalini Malani and Shen Shaomin, among others. The works featured were brought into the collection from 2009 to 2011. Featuring over 300 fully illustrated artworks from 180 artists, each artwork is presented alongside individual texts that explores its unique aesthetics and links it to its wider social context"--Page 4 of cover.
