Funded Activity Summary

The Asian Modern. Australia needs to understand Asia, and in particular the cultures of modern Asian states. Art is a vital part of the expression of those cultures, and we will know these better in our region for seeing how their modern art is an intrinsically self-generated set of cultural forms. The project will reveal what is modern in Asian art by making comparisons across national boundaries and with representative examples of Australian modern art. Through this process, we will gain a deeper understanding of where Australia fits in the region. The project will produce a comparative theoretical framework that will be capable of application beyond Asia and Australia.
