- Drawing on careful analysis of the discursive practices and a range of formal and informal art institutions such as art societies, art journals, art schools, exhibitions and art market, this book adopts an interdisciplinary approach to look at the institutionalisation of guohua (national painting or Chinese painting) in Shanghai from the 1920s to 1930s. Empirically grounded, it extends the scope of art-historical research and explores the discourse of guohua based on the author’s 12 years of research work and a considerable body of rare and overlooked primary source materials collected since her PhD degree (2004-2009).
