Abstract:
The dissertation examines the history of modern design in early 20th-century China. The emergent field of design looked to replace the specific cultural and historical references of visual art with an international language of geometry and abstraction. However, design practices also, encouraged extracting culturally unique visual forms by looking inward at a nation’s constructed past. The challenge of uniting these dual, and seemingly contradictory, goals was met in a collaborative book cover design project between Lu Xun (1881-1936), China’s most influential modern writer, and Tao Yuanqing (1

Following government reforms in China during the 1980s, an increasing number of Chinese artists are now studying and working overseas, including in Australia.

I consider how Chinese artists working outside of China today can capture their cross-cultural experience and establish a sense of identity in a changing globalised world.

Most immigrants have to adjust their lives to living in a new country, especially when moving from an Eastern to a Western society. Chinese immigrants may face multiple difficulties, including cultural differences and the English language barrier, which are a particularly problem for older immigrants. To overcome these difficulties, many Chinese immigrants either form new community groups or join those currently operating. Normally, Chinese community groups provide a wide range of activities for members. The literature (e.g., Diener, 1984; Cantor & Sanderson, 1999; Csikszentmihalyi, 1975) prov

As themes in Chinese art since economic reform, space and the environment have been crucial. Many artists have focussed on issues of urbanisation, globalisation, and the radical spatial reorganisation of Chinese society during the reform and post-­‐reform era, and many scholars have written about these artists’ spatial concerns. What, however, of these artists’ formative relationship to space itself?
