The book is a collection of fifteen introductory essays excerpted
from the Annual of Contemporary Art in China, covering the years
from 2005 to 2019, showcasing the development and changing
landscapes of contemporary art in China. The Annual documents
exhibitions, events, creative practices, and critical literature
concerning contemporary art in China since 2005. Based on archival
documentation and statistics data from these annuals, notable
phenomena, events, and discourses from a given year, as well as key
works and artists are reviewed in each introduction, with no
ideological or market-driven undertone. The author unravels
industrial and institutional factors, while also broaching
important issues of abstract art, new media art and so on, and
probing the historical and socio-cultural context as well. In this
regard, the book offers a panorama of contemporary Chinese art and
critically engages with the art scene in China, including Hongkong,
Taiwan, and among the Chinese diaspora. The title will appeal to
scholars, students and general readers interested in contemporary
art history, art criticism, contemporary Chinese art, iconography,
and contemporary art theory.
