This catalogue was produced on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the first exhibition of the Stars which was held in Beijing in October 1979. It serves simultaneously as a documentary review of the tumultuous events the group had experienced, and an appraisal of their new artistic production since the members dispersed to all corners of the world. With contributions from renowned art critics, art historians and core members of the Stars, such as Huang Rui, Zhong Ah Cheng, Ma Desheng and Wang Keping, this catalogue is significant for any study in the history and development of Chinese modern art since the end of the Cultural Revolution. Photographs and documents of the events happened in 1979, a chronology of the Stars and artists' biographies are included.



1979年10月,北京舉辦了首屆星星畫展,刊印本圖錄的目的正是為紀念十年前的這場畫展。此書以記實的手法,回顧了這群畫家所經歷的動盪歲月,並評述了如今散居各地的「星星」藝術家們的新作。晝中亦收錄了知名藝評人、藝術史學者和星星畫展核心成員的文章,例如黃銳、鍾阿城、馬德升和王克平等。對於研究後文革中國現代藝術歷史沿革的人來說,本圖錄可謂意義重大。本書亦載有許多1979年的珍貴圖片和文件、星星畫展大事年表和藝術家簡歷。
