Hardback. Condition: New. Bridging Chinese ink painting and Western installation art in dynamic works that engage with the agency of naturePublished with Los Angeles County Museum of Art and INK Institute.Over the past four decades, Shanghai-born, California-based Chinese American artist Zheng Chongbin (born 1961) has cultivated a practice that engages with the concepts and aesthetics of the Light and Space movement and East Asian traditions of ink painting. Educated in both traditional Chinese figurative painting and installation and performance art, Zheng synthesizes these seemingly disparate practices. Published to accompany his largest US solo show to date, this book archives and probes the artist's deeply philosophical engagements with ink, light and the agency of nature, focusing on two video installation pieces coupled with painted and printed works. Through abstract forms and distorted views of California's natural landscape, Zheng explores water, light and movement. Featuring exhibition photography as well as shots from the artist's personal archive, this volume weaves together Zheng's artistic practice with his daily life in California.

Hardback. Condition: New. The ongoing legacy of the East Asian ink tradition in contemporary artPublished with Los Angeles County Museum of Art.Including the work of more than 50 contemporary artists-from Xu Bing and Lin Tianmiao to Lee Ufan and Hiroshi Sugimoto-and featuring artists from China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore to South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Europe and the United States, this book offers a reevaluation of what defines ink art, arguing that it is not the conceptual threads of its history that define what contemporary ink art can be. The gatekeepers who have tied ink art to the continent of Asia and prescribed a strict set of tools for its execution-ink, brush, paper, silk-are nowhere in sight here. Instead, this collection recognizes a spirit of ink painting that transcends medium or place of origin. Ink Dreams seeks to delineate that spirit in the context of a contemporary, globalizing art world, by recognizing three major facets of ink art history that go beyond the tradition's concrete attributes. Exquisitely designed and illustrated, this publication features one of the most important collections of contemporary ink art in the world, from Dora and Gérard Cognié. While there are books on traditional Chinese ink painting, this unique book examines how contemporary art extends an expanded practice into the present day.Artists include: Bingyi, gu wenda, Li Huasheng, Li Huayi, Chen Haiyan, Lin Tianmiao, Liu Dan, Liu Guosong, Lui Shou-kwan, Qiu Shihua, Idris Khan, Wang Tiande, Wucius Wong, Xu Bing, Yang Jiechang, Zhang Yu, Zheng Chongbin, Park Seo-bo, Lee Ufan, Kitamura Junko, Kim Ho-deuk, Shirazeh Houshiary, Jorma Puranen, Matti Kujasalo, Ophélie Asch, Irma Blank, Michael Cherney, Shi Guorui, Hai Bo, Hiroshi Sugimoto and Min Byung Hun.
