Description

Xu Bing creates contemporary artworks using Chinese calligraphy and other traditional Chinese media placed within unexpected settings. Erickson, a specialist on contemporary Chinese art, elucidates clearly Bing's iconoclastic and irreverent work, relating it to themes Bing has used elsewhere in his career. This volume accompanies an exhibition held at the Sackler Gallery in Washington DC in 2001. It will be of interest to artists and those interested in the use of word and image in contemporary art.
