Although now poised for widespread popularity in China, abstract art still has a special status compared to figurative art. Its appeal in recent years has been increased by photographic artist Xiao Hui Wang and installation artist Wang Xiaosong, who seem "Western" in China and "Asian" to the West. Introspection analyses the latest works by these two renowned artists.
Beate Reifenscheid is director of the Leopold Museum in Koblenz, Germany, and the author or editor of several books, including China's Revision.
