Wei Jia
Much admired by the younger art audience in China, Wei Jia (born 1975) makes thickly textured paintings of what he describes as "radically sanguine" themes, generally of a personal or somewhat bittersweet nature, and often allegorical (a young man holding a bouquet in one hand, and scattering petals with the other); strongly individualistic, they project both melancholy and wonder.

Confucian Perfectionism examines and reconstructs both Confucian political thought and liberal democratic institutions, blending them to form a new Confucian politica...
Country Driving
In the summer of 2001, Peter Hessler, the long-time Beijing correspondent for the New Yorker, acquired his Chinese drivers licence. For the next seven years he travelled the country, tracking how the automobile and the improved transport system were transforming China. Hessler writes movingly of everyday people farmers, migrant workers and entrepreneurs who have reshaped the country during one of the most critical periods in its history.
