‎The Saatchi Gallery and Jiehong, Jiang‎

‎The Revolution Continues: New Art From China (ISBN:0847832066)‎

‎oblong 4to, cloth in In his text Jiang Jiehong argues that the widespread destruction of traditional Chinese treasures by the Red Guards, especially in the early period of 1966, overshadows the entire period. Today's rebellious artistic spirit is, in fact, an extension of Mao's legacy. The extensive Saatchi collection of new Chinese art is presented in conjunction with Joshua Jiang's examination of the use of the colour red, the iconography of Mao, the sense of the collective and the use of textual language that derives from the calligraphy of the propaganda poster. This dramatic material will be published to coincide with the exhibitions at the new Saatchi Gallery. 264 pages.‎
