This exhibition reflects the transformation of British art in the post-war era, during which globalisation facilitated the enrichment of British art by artists from various backgrounds: Asian, African and Caribbean. Rasheed Araeen, the curator for this exhibition, gives an historical account tracing the contributions of the artists. Chronology of the artists, artist biographies, and a complete list of artworks are available. 

Please note that only Asian artists are listed as follows.
