Summary

"Focusing on the period since the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949, the Ashmolean Museum's newly formed collection of 127 Chinese prints by 93 established contemporary Chinese artists reflects the changing face of China under different political climates from the artists' perspective, as well as the artists' aesthetic pursuits and their range of highly skilled techniques. Alongside the prints and an introduction, a chronology of modern Chinese printmaking is published in English for the first time."--Jacket
