The Making of a Modern Art World
Brill (Verlag)
9789004338098 (ISBN)
The Making of A Modern Art World explores the artistic institutions and discursive practices prevailing in Republican Shanghai, aiming to reconstruct the operational logic and the stratified hierarchy of Shanghai’s art world. Using guohua as the point of entry, this book interrogates the discourse both of guohua itself, and the wider discourse of Chinese modernism in the visual arts. In the light of the sociological definition of ‘art world’, this book contextualizes guohua through focusing on the modes of production and consumption of painting in Shanghai, examining newly adopted modern artistic practices, namely, art associations, periodicals, art colleges, exhibitions, and the art market.
Pedith Pui Chan, Ph.D. (2009) at SOAS, University of London, is an Assistant Professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She has published articles on modern and contemporary Chinese art.
