Abstract ‘In this expansive study John Clark draws on decades of his research on modern art cultures across Asia from 1850 to the present day. The Asian Modern uses an artists-centric approach, buy way of meticulous cases studies, to create a new paradigm for the narration of art’. The book also places Australian art since the 19th century in a resolutely Asian focus for the first time.
