Aesthetics of Globalization Norbert M Schmitz

On the East/West crosscurrents of globalization in art

Focusing on South, Central and East Asia, this series of essays examines how art has become globalized and a force of globalization. The book demonstrates how Western technology and Western tastes have trickled down into popular art in Asian countries but also how Asian art has proliferated in the West, and the ambiguous results of these crosscurrents.
