Summary
"Shanghai Modern documents this vigorous cultural exchange between China and the West. Essays by authors of international renown shed new light on the emergence of the Modern in China. The spectrum of Shanghai Modern is revealed in full-colour reproductions of early masterworks of Chinese modernism, some published for the first time in the West."--BOOK JACKET.
