"Woodblock prints have played a seminal role in the development of twentieth-century Chinese art. Chinese Printmaking Today provides a highly illustrated view of Chinese prints since 1980 and of the artists who made them, and shows how China's new artistic and political climate has produced images of surprising virtuosity and elegance." "The book features in full colour 200 of the finest prints, mostly woodcuts depicting largely non-abstract subjects, by leading contemporary Chinese artists. Most of the prints featured in the book are from the Muban Foundation, the foremost research collection of Chinese woodblock prints. Through detailed examination of these works, continuities and innovations in Chinese printmaking are explored." "This illustrated new book is an opportunity to make available to a wider audience an aspect of contemporary Chinese art that is at present little known outside China."--BOOK JACKET.
