Volume 18, Number 4, July/August 2019
by Yanzhi Wang


Article Description

Yanzhi Wang writes about two younger Chinese artists living in the US— Kunlin He and Yi Xin Tong—who, she argues, are characteristic of a new generation that, through a sense of displacement from their homeland and straddling more than one culture, thrive in a spirit of constructive global ambiguity.
