China displays new tolerance
for abrasive, urban art
In the West, "Chinese art" has meant
Ming vases and bamboo-laden landscape paintings.

These artists' work crackles with sharp-edged
social and personal commentary, and that is
considered as original and mature as anything
produced in the West. -Robert Marquand
