China Power: Art Now After Mao
A dynamic film exploring how Chinese art has caught the world's attention and how the art market is developing as fast as the country's economy. Once considered off-beat and exotic, Chinese contemporary art is now at its peak, with previously unimaginable prices achieved at international auction. The artists featured in the film live and work in China, enjoying the current climate for artistic expression, whilst benefiting from the critical acclaim of the West. They are rock stars of the contemporary art world, living a lifestyle more synonymous with New York than the People's Republic of China.
