What is "New Media" Art? Generally, new media art is associated with graphic art and digital technologies. "New Media" can be applied to a medium that does not necessarily employ digital technologies. The twentieth century introduced a great many mediums that expanded the definition of what art is, and compared to the many millennia that art history covers, these mediums can certainly be seen as "new." In the last hundred years alone, the art world has embraced performance and conceptual art, film and video, installation, sound art, and most recently, digital art. New media can be applied to all these terms, and the artists included in the book employ methods of one or two or all of these mediums.

The 2008 global financial crisis caused a precipitous drop in the multi-million dollar auction prices that modern Chinese art was fetching. This has led some Chinese artists back to their roots, a highly experimental approach with new media that was born in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Become familiar with those artists who bucked the trend, even in the height of the boom. A retrospective of works and brief introductions to 19 Chinese artists working in performance and conceptual art, film and video, installation, sound art, and digital art. This is a select group that has created the landscape of contemporary Chinese art and are dictating its future.
