'The book is produced after the forum "Critical Theories After Abstract", and is organized into three sections: speeches in the forum, related essays and art exhibits. A key feature of post-modern criticism is that art is no longer confined to the practice itself, but it becomes a challenge over avant-garde ideologies and art theories. In the forum, critics specialized in art and art history, as well as young researchers are invited to present their views on the topic "After Abstract Painting: Graffiti, Image Reconstruction and Multiple Themes". From where the modernists stopped, the participants pick up a fresh discussion on paintings after abstract and the theories behind, hoping to construct the methodology for analysing the creative power that generates the new forms of art.' - translated from preface

'本書以2011年舉辦的「抽象之後的批評理論」論壇為背景，用論壇演講現場、相關批評文章和展覽作品三項內容而合集形式出版。後現代主義批評論一個最重要的特徵，是這時的藝術已經不只是繪畫本身的問題，而是前衛藝術與理論對繪畫理論的批判。論壇邀請了目前這些方面頗有研究的批評史家、批評家，以及新一代的專業學生，結合「抽象之後的繪畫：塗鴉、圖像再造與多重主題」的展覽背景，以現代主義藝術批評的終結處為起點，討論一個繪畫在抽象之後的多種呈現和它的理論系統，以期獲得抽象之後的繪畫批評方法論上的思考和面對新的繪畫時在理論上的創造力。' - 摘自書序
