5.0 out of 5 stars Wang Guangyi - father of Chinese contemporary art, May 17, 2007
This review is from: Wang Guangyi (Chinese and English Edition) (Paperback)
Wang Guangyi has one of the best claims to be the leading political pop idol of contemporary art in China today. The book is richly illustrated with his paintings & sculptures from his earliest periods through to the famous series "Great Criticism" and his leadership of the Shanghai modern movement (which started in the 1980s). As a critic said of him "while Wang Guangyi's works may be read as a critique of China's new economics today, they may have passed -- with slight modification -- for government propaganda not too long ago". The book's essays explore this & other influences on his art. A "must read" for anyone interested in Chinese contemporary art!
