History of Art and Architecture professor Jenny Lin’s book, "Above Sea: Contemporary Art, Urban Culture, and the Fashioning of Global Shanghai", is the first in-depth examination of contemporary Shanghai-based art and design. The book goes beyond contemporary art’s global hype to reveal the socio-political tensions accompanying the transition from semi-colonial capitalism to Maoist socialism to Communist Party-sponsored capitalism. This is a brown-bag event and attendees are welcome to bring their lunch.
