The book consists of lucid discussions on individual artists, exhibitions and theoretical issues. With over sixty illustrations it serves to introduce the current landscape of Asian and Asian American art, with essays on art in China, Taiwan and North America, as well as individual essays on leading artists such as Rirkrit Tiravanija, Xu Bing and Michael Joo. Above all, Yang explores the challenges that contemporary Asian and Asian American art poses to artists, critics, curators and viewers alike.

Camille Pissarro : impressionism, landscape and rural labour / by Thomson, Richard,1953-(CARDINAL)166910; Pissarro, Camille,1830-1903.(CARDINAL)123344;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 119-120).Camille Pissarro : impressionism, landscape and rural labour -- Convention and change in the 1860s -- Representing the Parisian suburbs -- Pissarro at Pontoise : modernity and equivocation -- Montfoucault : fictions of the 'true countryside' -- Representing the peasant in the 1880s -- Composing an anarchist ideal : the gleaners, 1889 -- The image of the market : exchange between country and town -- The late rural idylls : constructing 'the true poem of the countryside' -- The meadows -- The bathers -- Work in the fields -- Representing the city : the Rouen campaigns.This book, based on a 1990 touring exhibition organized by the British South Bank Centre, surveys Pissarro's work in all the variety of media in which the artist worked - pastel, gouache, etching, even painting on ceramic tiles. Pissarro's own concept of his art interlocked with his anarchist ideology. In this volume Thomson has selected groups of Pissarro's works, some not seen together since they left the artist's studio, to show how complex were his attitudes to nature, landscape traditions and issues of politics and modernity.

Cats in art / by Morris, Desmond,author.(CARDINAL)122231;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 237-239) and index.Introduction -- Sacred cats -- Early urban cats -- Medieval cats -- Satanic cats -- Old Master cats -- Nineteenth century cats -- Modern cats -- Avant-garde cats -- Contemporary traditional cats -- Naive realist cats -- Tribal cats -- Eastern cats -- Cartoon cats -- Street art cats."The cat--that most graceful, stubborn, and agile of animals--has been a favorite subject of artists the world over from prehistory to the modern day. A spectacular 7,000-year-old engraving in Libya depicts a catfight. Figures modeled by the Babylonians remind us of their belief that the souls of priests were escorted to paradise by a helpful cat. Pablo Picasso was known to have loved cats and famously portrayed them as savage predators. In Victorian times, cats were depicted in loving family groups with mothers caring for their playful kittens. Today, the cat is one of the most popular domestic pets on the planet, and feline art is a hugely popular theme across the world. In his latest eye-catching book, best-selling author Desmond Morris tells the compelling story of cats in art. He explores feline art in its many forms, tracing its history from ancient rock paintings and spectacular Egyptian art to the work of old masters, avant-garde representations, and the depiction of cats in cartoons. Morris discusses the various ways in which artists have approached the subject throughout history, weaving illuminating stories with rarely seen images. The result is a beautifully illustrated book that will delight anyone with a Kitty, Max, or Tigger in their life."--
