内容简介:The artists presented in this book came of age in a time when freedom of thought and expression was possible, if not exactly permitted. Unlike their predecessors, these artists did not feel a compulsion to politicize their work. The result is a generation that accepts materialism and economic growth as a part of the Chinese experience - and this paradigm is apparent in their arresting and often shocking works of art.
