Museum Representations of Maoist China: From Cultural Revolution to Commie Kitsch

Museum Representations of Maoist China: From Cultural Revolution to Commie Kitsch

by Amy Jane Barnes (Author)

Synopsis

The collection, interpretation and display of art from the People's Republic of China, and particularly the art of the Cultural Revolution, have been problematic for museums. These objects challenge our perception of 'Chineseness' and their style, content and the means of their production question accepted notions of how we perceive art.
