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.
