Bringing together divergent approaches to artistic practice through works by Xu Beihong, Wang Shikuo, Li Keran, Li Xiongcai, Dong Xiwen, and Fu Baoshi, this book returns to the creative process to reconstruct artists grappling with the representational politics of an as-yet undefined, nascent socialist art. This book argues that practices of drawing and sketching must be understood as part of -- and a metaphorical expression for -- the Maoist art world's ambitions to forge new national forms, new registers of experience, new structures of feeling, and new aesthetic communities" -- Provided by publisher.
