Books by Liu Kang

Liu Kang: Essays on Art and Culture is a testament to the inexorable passion of an artist who knew no boundaries. This collection of essays, which Liu Kang wrote over 44 years, offers an insight into the artist's myriad interests as well as his contributions as a first generation Nanyang artist and art educator.

Liu Kang examines China's ideological struggles in political discourse, intellectual debate, popular culture, avant-garde literature, the news media and the internet. He argues that globalization is a historical condition in which the country's reform and opening up has unfolded.
