A brief survey of contemporary painting. The first ever exhibition of its kind in Europe. With essays by Clare Harris and Ian Alsop. The paintings showcased in this publication are the work of a thriving and energetic community of contemporary painters in the ancient city of Lhasa in Tibet. Tibet is in a state of flux and change that impacts all of its inhabitants. It is evolving away from the time of destruction and confrontation that marked the early years of Chinese control of the region and the terrible decade of the Cultural Revolution. This book aims to reflect the developments in Tibet through the works of these artists. With preface by Ian A One of the most impressive developments in Lhasa over the last decades can be seen in the plates of this small book. The paintings we are pleased to present in the pages that follow are the work of a thriving and energetic community of contemporary painters in this ancient city. The energy and talent which can be seen in the works produced by these artists is further abundant evidence of the vitality of Tibetan culture.
