These artists have all sought to think beyond the simple East-West dogmas, which has allowed for a vital distance, and a particular insight, as they contend with the legacies of Chinese history, international modernism, transnationalism and globalization. Some of those artists have helped stimulated and/or participated new art developments in Mainland China, and their international exposures have helped bring contemporary Chinese art onto the world stage. On the other hand, the onset of globalization and the rise of China, and its momentous economic, social, and political changes, have served as the crucial catalyst, which in term stimulated these artists to respond with an explosion of diverse work that is simultaneously exhilarating and bewildering.
