Inside Out is the catalog for a groundbreaking exhibition organized by the Asia Society in New York, with venues also in San Francisco, Seattle, and Monterrey, Mexico. It discusses the first major presentation in the West of contemporary Chinese art and is the most important critique of the field to date. As they pursue their personal visions, Chinese artists tread between two extremes: embracing or rejecting their classical tradition. It is not easy for a Chinese artist to break away from such a rich treasury. For example, many works in the show deal with the written word--that most valued of China's art forms, with its dual connotations of calligraphic beauty and obsessive ritualistic copying. Song Dong writes on a flat stone with water that quickly evaporates; Xu Bing invents witty, new, but meaningless characters. Understanding a work may require acquaintance with the classics: a suspended boat impaled with arrows harks back to a third-century general who sent straw-filled boats down-river to attract hostile fire, retrieved the boats, and collected his enemies' arrows to use against them. There is an implicit anti-West message here. Other works, including installation, video, and performance art, have universal connotations that owe nothing to Chinese conventions. Contemporary Chinese art has been around for less than 20 years, but the freshness and variety of the work described in this book indicate that an original new force has joined the global art community. --John Stevenson -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verfügbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

From Library Journal

This exhibition catalog is the most important contribution to the documentation and introduction of contemporary Chinese art since the publication of China Avant-garde (Oxford Univ., 1993). Organized by the Asia Society and the San Francisco Museum of Art, the exhibition is the first international show of its kind, encompassing contemporary art produced not only from mainland China but also from the "outside" regions such as Taiwan and Hong Kong and by artists in the United States and Europe. Covering the period from 1984 to 1998, it features the works of 60 artists in various media including installation, video, performance art, oils, and ink. The daunting images challenge the Western audience's perception about Chinese art. Essays by eminent Chinese art scholars and curators explore in depth two dominant themes of the exhibition?modernity and identity?relating them to the context of momentous political, economic, and social change throughout the Chinese world. This book enriches the viewer's understanding of Chinese contemporary art on both visual and conceptual levels. Recommended as an important addition to any art collection in academic and public libraries.?Lucia S. Chen, New York P.L.

This catalog presents a wide range of 'new' Chinese art (1985 onward). Some of it may be familiar to readers only casually acquainted with Chinese art, but most of it will not. In fact, even gallery goats are likely to find much new material. They have included the hanging scrolls (Zoon) of Huang Chih-Yang, the rouged, flower biting comrade by Li Shan, Fang Lijun's rage against conformity (the Chinese version of Munch's Howl), and Zhang Yu's elegant meditation. They have also selected pieces that look like rock album covers from the sixties, several more that express current turbulant feelings about Mao and his legacy, and many others that show this developing nation is growing up quickly...perhaps too quickly for its own psychic good. There are several essays to provide background and cultural context, but frankly, they're a bit lengthy and repetitive. This collection is certainly worth a look, but for every piece likely to raise an eyebrow and draw you in, there will be two that are quite forgettable.
