On Experimentalism and Modern Chinese Printmaking

Image

In this presentation, I will discuss the logic of experimentation at different stages in the development of modern Chinese printmaking. Various experiments in artistic form, conception, and production point to many competing social and cultural visions. I will argue that experimentalism is at once a key value in modern Chinese art and a useful historicizing concept.
