The book presents a range of articles and discussions that offer critical insights into the development of contemporary Chinese art; both within China and internationally. It brings together selected writings; both published and unpublished; by Paul Gladston; one of the foremost international scholars on contemporary Chinese art. The articles are based on extensive first-hand research; much of which was carried out during an extended residence in China between 2005 and 2010. In contrast to many other writers on contemporary Chinese art; Gladston analyses his subject with specific reference to the concerns of critical theory. In his writings he consistently argues for a ldquo;polylogicrdquo; (multi-voiced) approach to research and analysis grounded in painstaking attention to local; regional and international conditions of artistic production; reception and display.
