- Summary
- "Contemporary Queer Chinese Art is the first English-language academic book that explores the intersections of queer culture and contemporary Chinese art in a transnational context from the mid-1980s to the present. This book brings together 20 internationally renowned artists, activists, curators and scholars to explore heterogeneous expressions of Chineseness and queerness in contemporary art from China and Chinese diasporas in Asia, Europe and North America. Examining contemporary visual art, performance, literature and activism, this book offers a critical archive of queer artistic expressions in a transnational context. It provides critical insights into the status quo and intersectional struggles of Chinese artists who identify themselves as queer and who have associated their work with queer positionalities and perspectives. By sharing personal experiences, art expressions and critical insights about what it means to be queer in a transnational context, the book reveals multiple forms and potentialities of queer politics in the domains of art and activism"--
