No contemporary artist has succeeded so thoroughly in blending classical Chinese art and modern abstract art as Cao Jun, who has exhibited widely in China, as well as at the Louvre. Accompanying an exhibition at the McMullen Museum of Art, Boston College, this volume presents the art of Cao Jun for the first time in the United States. Featuring the artistâs early wild animal paintings, to his landscapes, to recent explorations of space depicted abstractly, the book also showcases Cao Junâs calligraphy and ceramics.

Essays by Chinese and American scholars examine Cao Junâs art, showing how it is deeply rooted in the experience of nature and how it portrays our place within nature. The essays demonstrate also the way in which Cao Junâs art brings together classical Chinese painting with modern abstract forms akin to those of Western art. Yet Cao Junâs art foregoes simply fusing these traditions; it employs the techniques of Chinese ink and brush painting and uses ink- and color-splashing to produce abstract forms.
