Modern Asian Art
“Modern Asian Art is a seminal publication focusing on the modern art of Japan, China, India, Thailand and Indonesia. It represents the culmination of years of research and a significant and challenging contribution to the discussion of the advent of modernism in Asia. Clark offers a unique viewpoint, debunking the idea of a single “modern Asian art” and of a one-way flow of influence from West to East, presenting instead a complex ebb and flow of information and transformation, where many diverse modernisms interact. Through a series of empirical micro-histories the book proceeds to look closely at the conditions for art practice in each country. Prehistories, colonialism, transfers of information, the application of neotraditional art, arts infrastructure, types of artist, modes of exhibition, domains of practice, the avant-garde movement, the influence of nationalism, and issues of integration and autonomy are rigorously explored by the author. The dynamic realm of contemporary Asian art, which today takes the international stage, is also highlighted in later chapters.” (From the flap text)
