This book is based on the symposium that was part of the Asia Triennial Manchester 2014. The authors discuss the arts and contemporary artists who produce works that entail both innovation and allusion to conflict in the pan-Asian world. The essays in this book demonstrate how conflict and compassion are'in'these works - in markedly different (even antagonistic) ways: the forms and the contents are bound up together, often in specific works that themselves contain antagonisms of identity, identification, difference and meaning.'
