Negotiating Difference: Contemporary Chinese Art in the Global ContextBirgit Hopfener Contemporary Chinese art has only recently become a topic of in-depth academic research. The edited volume Negotiating Difference looks at contemporary Chinese art in a global context and focuses on questions of methodology. The book combines 20 essays written by selected international scholars engaged in ambitious and methodologically innovative doctoral and post-doctoral research on contemporary Chinese art. Their multi-faceted, in part interdisciplinary approaches are complemented by four contributions of distinguished critical practitioners in the field, who--as art curators and critics--are located in China. |
