Once primarily associated with elite culture, ink painting is now undergoing a popular resurgence. \u003ci\u003eInk Worlds\u003c\/i\u003e explores the modern evolution of this art form, from scrolls and panel paintings to photographic and video forms, and documents how Chinese ink arts speak to present-day concerns while simultaneously referencing deeply historical materials, themes, and techniques. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePresenting the work of some two dozen artists from China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the United States in more than 100 full-color reproductions, the book spans pioneering abstract work from the late 1960s through twenty-first century technological innovations. Nine illustrated essays build a compelling case for understanding the modern form as a distinct genre, fusing art and science, history and technology, painting and film into an accessible theory of contemporary ink painting. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Yamazaki\/Yang collection is widely recognized as one of the most important private collections of contemporary Chinese ink art. \u003ci\u003eInk Worlds\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book to represent the collection from the perspective of contemporary art history. From its atmospheric mountainscapes to precise calligraphy, this book is a revelation, bringing together the past, present, and future of an enduring and adaptable art form. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Vinograd, Ellen Huang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1503606848\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781503606845\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/19\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.30h x 8.30w x 0.90d","brand":"Richard Vinograd","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43987788235007,"sku":"9781503606845","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b3feff0-ca35-4fcd-8247-fda99ddd9361.jpg?v=1683290976","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ink-worlds-richard-vinograd-9781503606845","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
