Transience: Chinese Experimental Art at the End of the Twentieth Century is a groundbreaking and timely exhibition organized by The David and Alfred Smart Museum of Chicago. Guest curator Wu Hung, a leading expert on ancient and contemporary Chinese art, identified three critical aspects of current artistic production in China and tightly focused the exhibition to explore those themes--"Demystification," "Ruins," and "Transience." With its concentration on individual artists through close readings of specific works, Transience constitutes a new voice in the current discussion about contemporary Chinese art and its place in post-national cultural understanding.
