Description: Visual Representations of the Cold War and Postcolonial Struggles : Art in East and Southeast Asia, Hardcover by Yamamura, Midori (EDT); Li, Yu-chieh (EDT), ISBN 0367615290, ISBN-13 9780367615291, Brand New, Free shipping in the US "The essays and artworks gathered in this volume examine the visual manifestations of postcolonial struggles in art in East and Southeast Asia, as the world transitioned from the communist/capitalist ideological divide into the new global power structureunder neoliberalism that started taking shape during the Cold War. The contributors to this volume investigate the visual art that emerged in Okinawa, China, Cambodia, the Philippines, Australia, Korea, China, and Indonesia. With their critical views andnew approaches, the scholars and curators examine how visual art from postcolonial countries deviated from the communist/capitalist dichotomy to explore issues of identity, environment, rapid commercialization of art, and independence. These foci offer windows into some lesser-known aspects of the Cold War, including humanistic responses to the neo-imperial exploitations of people and resources as capitalism transformed into its most aggressive form. Given its unique approach, this seminal study will be of great value to scholars of twentieth-century art history and East and Southeast Asia"--
