Printed Project 11: ‘Farewell to Post-Colonialism – Querying the Guangzhou Triennial 2008′, curated / edited by Sarat Maharaj
Printed Project 11, curated / edited by Sarat Maharaj, is a series of reflections, extensions and musings emerging from and around the Guangzhou Triennial 2008. The critical thinking and lines of inquiry explored include the global shifts in political and economic focus; mapping post-western modernity; and how this relates art practice and theory in China and beyond.
