In A Modern Miscellany: Shanghai Cartoon Artists, Shao Xunmei's
Circle and the Travels of Jack Chen, 1926-1938 Paul Bevan explores
how the cartoon (manhua) emerged from its place in the Chinese
modern art world to become a propaganda tool in the hands of
left-wing artists. The artists involved in what was largely a
transcultural phenomenon were an eclectic group working in the
areas of fashion and commercial art and design. The book
demonstrates that during the build up to all-out war the cartoon
was not only important in the sphere of Shanghai popular culture in
the eyes of the publishers and readers of pictorial magazines but
that it occupied a central place in the primary discourse of
Chinese modern art history.
