ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

With the explosive growth in the art world in China, the volume of exhibitions has expanded from a handful to thousands. Each year China’s galleries, private and public museums, and art centres together exhibit hundreds of thousands of individual artworks. But how many of them are any good? How many should find their way into a collection, into a museum; into history?

As Seen puts on record a select handful of outstanding artistic achievements: the notable artworks worth remembering.

China’s contemporary art scene has been described by The Economist as ‘a cultural landscape with so few signposts’. A neat and compact guide, As Seen provides an antidote with a collection of signposts that add up to a timely, straight-to-the-point look at forty of remarkable pieces of art.
