Samenvatting
In China, the economic revolution expresses itself in distinct ways, leading to a variety of political and economical transformations, and to alternative views on art and artists. This development has also ushered in a new chapter of export art known as 'Chinese Contemporary Art' especially in the field of oil paintings from 'Chinese young artists'. During the 1980s, the Ministry of Culture played a major role in developing art academies. The academic trained painters followed the style of French impressionism and Russian naturalism. However, the 'new generation' of artists born in the late 1970s and early 1980s became increasingly stirred by contemporary Western concepts and transferred the making of propaganda art into an appropriate way of expressing their ideas about a fast-changing China. Paper analyses the diverse effects of the economic revolution on Chinese art and artists. Paper held at the 5th ICCPR conference, 20-24 August 2008, Istanbul, Turkey. |
