Summary: As prices for contemporary art from China rocket in a newly globalised art market, it is a good time to think about an earlier generation of Chinese artists who set out to make Chinese art ‘modern’ in the early twentieth century. This lecture will look at the debates about what might be taken as ‘modern art’ in the Chinese context, and at how the arguments of the past continue to shape the ways in which art is made and viewed in China today.
