Modern Chinese painting embodies the constant renewal and
reinvigorations of Chinese civilization amidst rebellions, reforms,
and revolutions, even if the process may appear confusing and
bewildering. It also demonstrates the persistence of tradition and
limits of continuities and changes in modern Chinese culture. Most
significantly, it compels us to ask several important questions in
the study of modern Chinese culture: How extensively can cultural
tradition be re-interpreted before it is subverted? At what point
is creative re-invention an act of betrayal of tradition? How has
selective borrowing from Chinese tradition and foreign cultrue
enabled modern Chinese artists to sustain themselves in the modern
world? By focusing on the art of Huang Pin-hung (1865-1955),
particularly his late work, this book attempts to provide some
answers to these questions.
