Williams College Museum of Art Presents
Regeneration: Contemporary Chinese Art from China and the U.S.
February 11, 2006–May 14, 2006

Organized by the Samek Art Gallery at Bucknell University, this exhibition includes some of the most exciting contemporary Chinese art being made today: artists who have been prominent in the international scene since the late 1980s, who have received international attention for their work in the last decade, and emerging artists who are currently being recognized internationally. While the work in this exhibition will be diverse and wide-ranging, the artists do share some thematic concerns. Some employ or appropriate traditional Chinese art forms in new ways and others investigate the significant social and cultural transformations occurring in China today. All represent the vital and rapid regeneration of contemporary life and culture in China today. This exhibition was organized by the Samek Art Gallery, Bucknell University.
