Product Description

From the 1980s, many Chinese artists have experimented with a range of unconventional materials. Their works-in plastic, paper, silk, ash, and tobacco-form a major trend in Chinese art. The Allure of Matter offers the first serious consideration of these ground-breaking material explorations, coining the term Material Art to describe works that place "matter" itself as the primary vehicle of investigation and expression. The book contains four ground-breaking essays, profiles of twenty-five artists, and corresponding color images.

"This publication was produced by the Smart Museum of Art, The University of Chicago, on the occasion of the exhibition The Allure of Matter: Material Art from China, curated by Wu Hung with Orianna Cacchione."
