The Transnational Artists Yun-Fei Ji, Hung Liu, and Zhang Hongtu
This essay examines the work of three artists, Yun-Fei Ji, Hung Liu, and Zhang Hongtu, all of whom emigrated from China to the US in the 1980s. Brodsky examines what effects the move to the US has had on their creative practices, as well as their connections to China—Ji has recently returned, Zhang has a studio there, and Liu’s painting content is rooted in Chinese subjects. Brodsky is primarily interested in the impacts of transnationalism, glob…

It seems that fame and fortune for some Indian artists living in the West entails capitulatin…

In it, I propose that a multi-sensory “whole body” experience – Merleau-Ponty's “lived body” – is engaged in both the making and the viewing of artworks. In two sections, the first exploring practice and the second theory, the prevailing mode of interpreting art works exclusively as representations to be…
