The Grace Rainey Rogers Auditorium
Examine a distinct subset of art produced by Mainland Chinese artists from the 1980s to the present: a contemporary “ink aesthetic” in which references to traditional pictorial and calligraphic concepts suggest a conscious effort by the artists to engage with and transform inherited Chinese art forms—to extend, question, or subvert them—as a defining feature of their artistic vision.
