This monograph of artist Zhao Zhao features essays by Hou Hanru and Li Zhenhua. Artist biography included.
'In recent years, Zhao Zhao's practice has become emblematic for art's ability to address conflict — social, political, and aesthetic — in a world undergoing unprecedented upheaval. The artist has consistently positioned his art as a counterweight to systems of control that affect and regulate the lives of individuals in China; meanwhile, his work's increasingly global reach testifies to its profound resonance beyond his country's borders. His deft use of a wide range of materials, combined with a tonal elusiveness that veers between the faintly ludic, the sardonic, and the unambiguously confrontational, justify his position as a crucial agent in contemporary cultural discourse.' - from the back cover
