The complexity and confusion of styles and intentions are true characters of modern Chinese art. Just as the definition of 'modernity' was subjected to reinterpretations at various points in China's recent history, current notions of the canon are likewise subjected to change, because the canonicity of art, which rests no more on intrinsic aesthetic value than on external factors of timeliness and social impact, may be recalibrated with the passage of time. This book - consisting of ten articles by art historians, artist, historian, and curator - explores the developments of Chinese art in the previous century, applying critical theories to question and reinterpret concepts that are normally taken for granted. Their writings also reveal the thought processes in which the authors filtered what they considered to be important information, especially regarding people, events, dates, and artworks. As such, the topic of each article is, in itself, a result of judicious selection. This volume demonstrates how modern Chinese art history has been - and can be - written. Josh Yiu is the Foster Foundation Associate Curator of Chinese Art at the Seattle Art Museum. Other contributors include Julia Andrews, Arnold Chang, Ralph Croizier, Zaixin Hong, Tamaki Maeda, Kuiyi Shen, Jerome Silbergeld, Qingli Wan, and Aida Yuen Wong.
